But does it matter? Even if it's justified it doesn't mean we have to get involved, it's not necessarily "our fight", it's primarily about Israeli security and US global control, not really British priorities.

Why does anyone want us to get involved? Feels like a lot of people are laying in to Starmer about it, but I find it hard to believe the vast majority of the population don't agree that staying out is incredibly sensible. Iraq was only 20ish years ago ffs.

I don't think reform are that dim. She's actually crashed the economy, the others are more shit by association. Think she might end up with Rupes when he gets desperate for relevance.

The Godfather. Long. Boring. Few good bits, but overall a really poor film.

a good couple of weeks for Kemi I think, handled the Jenrick departure authorititively, lost some waster MPs and been more likeable doing the circuit. They're obviously a long way from government but they'll improve if they quietly develop back in to the safe and calm party whilst reform and labour make all the noise.

Seems like a bizarre get for Reform, Jenrick has to be one of the most feeble and blatantly disingenuous politicians around. Also a big part of the current illegal immigration situation, utterly baffling why reform would want anything to do with him. Good news for the Tories too imo, they were being weighed down by his partisan bollocks since the election.

What about that right back that looked like Jesus? He was very average

Just get rid of laws and crime will go away in no time.

Tbf, every manager manager we've hired since has been worse.

True. If a party gets a majority with <30% then there has to be a conversation about first past the post. Even Labour having a stonking majority with 34% is clearly not great democratically.

I think you make valid points about reform and Labour, but I just think the Tories are so unpopular because of the last few years of government that I don't see how they can generate enough support. If the current trajectory continues it's going to be a fascinating general election with a strong possibility of no parties over 30% and proper hung parliament territory with different options for government.

Part of the issue is that they came in with a very specific and restrictive manifesto and when things haven't gone to plan (which they often don't), they've been hemmed in and reactive. That combined with a lack of a tangible vision (by the looks of it) and it all seems a bit wank.

That's not a majority and I'm not sure anyone would join them in a coalition, so we're either talking an anti-reform coalition or a minority Reform.

I think with us there was an acceptance that we were likely to be bad in the prem regardless so there was less venom to it - what he's doing at Rangers is objectively worse I'd say.

This sort of thing is frustrating. Reform aren't particularly good or generally 'supportable' but Labour are completely failing to create a viable alternative that things like this don't seem to matter. If Labour pull their finger out and actually start operating like a progressive party it could actually make Reform look like the frauds they are.
