pingpong

Least efficiently run gravy train of all time then. Unless your gravy is in making mortuary slabs, or gravestones, or suicide helplines.

Yes, therapy, from a specialist. To talk through their needs. 5 yr waiting list currently, and a 2 hr trip if you are hampshire. Braverman didn't say it was disgusting, she said she was too physically repulsed to talk about it.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-49833804 Jo cox died to get brexit done apparently, and it's humbug to say otherwise. So I don't think our lot are any better, to be fair (although at least johnson is gone, for now).

Midterm

The shooter is 3yrs registered republican and voted republican in the last election, which is dampening the blame-biden crew. Narrative shift for some that it's a long wolf mental health issue now.

I mean seeking help from medical professionals. Waiting list is currently 5yrs for an appointment though, just to have a discussion, so not sure this is the scary disgusting problem she thinks it is.

To be fair, we don't know what she thinks of trans people seeking care, because 'it physically repulses' her to talk about 'it'. If she can't get past her physical repulsion of transpeople I'm not sure she is the right person to be talking about policy.

That's a shame, that's only 5 years ago, but before the tories selected transwomen as their political target, and they seemed so hopeful that sport was becoming more inclusive. They must be so demoralised now they are no longer welcome in that space.

Nice try, not falling for those for a second - even the mail wouldn't go with that amateur PowerPoint shape overlay, let alone the tinpot clichéd (and obviously false) content in the text. No offence jf you put it together, but it reads like a 14yr old andrew tate wrote it.

I think grant shapps has a fair point. After all, you could never dream of a conservative prime minister going awol at a time of emergency, missing cobra meetings to spend time writing a book in his country house, getting flat out drunk at covid parties on a Friday night, or throwing their laptop at their cheated on wife and spilling red wine on their sofa of an evening. Sunak also said today he has been speaking to constituents day and night, promoting a 24/7 working week, which sounds horrific, especially for those little old ladies in Tunbridge Wells who have to sip tea with him at 3am in the morning.

I came out bang on top of the lib dem logo, which is who I would have voted for if we didn't have fptp, so pretty much as expected.

Strongly disagree, aside from Shilton, flowers, niemi, most of our gks have been of a similar standard, including GB.

Or Biden could do it now...

Sweden population locked themselves down, they didn't need government reinforcement. Their public transport usage in Stockholm dropped very similarly to London. And to be fair, so did we, after Cheltenham, a majority of workplaces were already taking steps to wfh, and the premier league cancelled matches, all before boris johnson got his todger out of whatever hole it was in and made his lockdown speech.

I assume it's because the camera operator is walking the opposite direction to everyone else.

I voted already, it's crazy to me that more people don't postal vote, it's so much more convenient.

Do we even know what team farage pretends to support?

Pretty sure scotland, Wales, england and ni all have white on their flags. A labour candidate can't be seen wearing blue in the lead up to a ge, just like tory prime ministers shouldn't stand next to exit signs or mickey mouse ears.

Not much talk of our local representatives, I get it's starmer vs sunak, but in soton test, the difference in quality between con and lab candidates is crazy, I can't imagine how anyone could vote for the con candidate ahead of labour here. And that's reflected in the odds [lab 1-40]. And reform have no chance here. How much of the decision is who we want representing us in the commons, and the local campaigns? Because ever since johnson purged all brexit critics from the Tories, the quality of conservative candidates has plummeted.

I really like it, but why no images of the back? Anyone know what the back looks like?

I think the tories have become an irrelevance in the campaign now. ITV on the full attack on Labour now, hardly mentioning sunak at all, slight mention of farage. I think the media are assuming the race is over and so are focusing on challenging who they see as the next govt. Which seems against purdah, but that's been ignored so far I think. It seemed to switch after the sky debate.

I assume most, if not all of us, would agree that we'd rather be nuked than nuke someone else. Given that, it just doesn't act as a deterrent...

What's your reason to disbelieve the data? (Is it your feelings?)

Apart from anything else the 2000 lie is just disingenuous in its lack of clarity. £2000 per household, over 4 years, is only £20 a month for me. £2000 in total is only 0.003p per person. It would take over a thousand years before it would cost me a penny. £2000 per year, per person, which is what they want you to think, is a very different thing...

I was thinking john major era, but probably trump was the pioneer of not caring about the consequences of lying, or trying to hide it. Johnson and truss were the same. I thought may, starmer, and sunak had more integrity, but sunak disappointed me in the debate and subsequently.
