Polanski, running to be Green leader, is seen by lots of young lefties as charismatic (calling for eco populism). Anyone right of their deluded position is likely to see him as he is: a dull man who just says what his small base want. It’s the same for Corbyn. He has the charisma of a damp dishcloth yet because he says freebies for all he’s “charismatic.”

This is the only correct answer - we won’t lose a game all season.

The opposite is the super power to make anyone you want dance with you (if face on)

Um, that’s not what the IAEA said. They said they don’t know as they don’t have enough credible knowledge of such a program. They said the enrichment is a worry but not once have they said Iran is trying to build a bomb. Why talk of being serious while writing about reports you clearly haven’t read?

The problem with this theory is that the people involved in politics are always the same. There’s the left wing activists and right wing activists. They seldom change, they simply move party to whichever is most popular. It’s consistently the same pool of people. Therefore the majority of those standing or involved with Reform are just Tories under a new banner. It’s why the local Tory branches are dying and Reform is controlled by ex members of CCHQ - they’ve just moved over. They’ll be just as incompetent. What’s needed isn’t a new party but new people (away from longstanding grifters who’ve been in politics for the past 20-30 years). There must be talent out there, the challenge is to find them. The Tory party in this case could be just as effective as Reform with new people willing to stand. Likewise for leftist disenchanted with Labour. People make the party / parliament. The party doesn’t always make the people. It’s why most parliaments are so unpredictable. That’s just my opinion anyways.

So a few dodgy tweets and an ageist assumption on competence from a fully grown man making videos to sub 1k people in his basement. Fair play to them for going into public service.

I don’t know about this. Reform are much broader than migration if people bother to look - their economics, for instance, which is unfunded balls. But it is a policy structure. It’s one of the main reasons amongst the people which drives me away. It’s their voters who only talk about immigration not the party officials IMO. The second gentleman saying they’ve gone into councils and it’s shown them up and they don’t know what to do; it’s been all of five minutes. To judge a council’s performance so critically in such a short amount of time screams pre-judged bias.

Whether we’re paying the price is up and down. Most of these would be good points if only there hadn’t been governments between 1990 and today. To say Thatcher is why this country is in the sh1t is lazy. Council housing, as one of example: why did the Labour govt of Blair build less stock per year than even Thatcher? They kept the right to buy policy intact, despite being less generous with grants. Regarding the ANC and S. 28, I don’t see the relevance today. More mines were shut under Wilson, at least double that of Thatcher, with many, similar to the 80s, not given redeployment. British steel has always been uncompetitive. I support nationalisation with a view to a sunset clause but see it through security - but generally, how is continually proving up failing subsidised business a great thing in your eyes? Water privatisation we’re feeling the force of now. Once again govts since Thatcher should’ve done more. The poll tax is the big one, which, amongst other factors, has certainly made the union weaker. But devolution to a certain extent isn’t a bad thing. To blame Thatcher solely for all troubles is lazy oversimplification and a wool over the eyes treatment to the previous 40 years.

The Reform-Hokey-Pokey continues. Yusuf returns to the cult. Having still been a Tory until recently - even when platforming Reform - he’s used to being a bit confused. He would be converted many times on the way to Damascus.

Sat down with a buttoned up suit-jacket. 101 reason to hate.

Does anyone remember that game we lost?

Win, or else.

At least it wasn't the Nathan Jones burner account who posted it.
