Threats to slap tariffs on countries who oppose his theft of Greenland. Control and coercion on the global stage. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c9qpy952xvno

Jeez. Poor people. It's worth noting the ICE recruitment ads and the music used. No attempt to disguise what they are and the agenda.

Ditto. What troubles me is the sheer number of people who think that the only Tory or Labour alternative is Reform. Bizarre.

I know many people who see reform as the way to go. All former Tory voters. They'll get votes, and if we had a GE tomorrow, I think they'd win by a distance. People are disillusioned by Labour, and the more they keep reminding the public how bad the Tories were, the more they're selling an alternative. The defections, I think, help Reform. Although they have tried to distance themselves from the Tories, people see them as an alternative, and almost a new reincarnation, and the defections play to that point. Let's see how things go in the locals, but I think anyone saying they won't get votes is just being wishful.

I don't think she'll get anything out of him. It doesn't matter who's waiting in the wings - it seemed clear from Leavitt's answer at the press briefing yesterday that democracy isn't coming to Venezuela anytime soon. They've essentially replaced one dictator with another, albeit one based in DC/Florida.

Great use of one of your 3 nic. Well done. I won't engage with you on a serious level because you don't post seriously. You conflate issues, assume your position as fact, and moreover, are rude and personal at every turn.

Roll

There are all sorts of people claiming to be a clinician of some sort saying that he has this or that, and will probably die soon. I work on the assumption that they're as full as shit as he is.

Individual politicians don't generally renege on their promises - they don't set policy. You seem to be asking for a recall petition to be used to boot out MP's because of government policy decisions. That's never going to happen. If (as you initially suggested) there's a more accessible recall petition for MP's because they're falling short, then that's so open to abuse, and it absolutely could be used in witch hunt exercises.

So a witch hunt policy?

I thought you were one of the people wanting us to limit who we let in, as per Trump. Make your mind up.

Marzipan

That's daft even by your standards. I'll entertain that kind of attempt at equivalence when Starmer has a private Gestapo rounding up brown people, steals countries, etc, etc.

And advertise the suggested replacements on marketplace. Sorted.
