  1. Nige stood his troops down in ‘19 & the result was a 80 odd seat majority. He’s decimated the Tories this time, done more to damage them since Tony Blair & James Goldsmith, yet he’s still on his high horse. One silver lining, at least he’ll STFU about PR for 5 years.
  2. I don’t know about the world stage, but he embarrassed himself on Mastermind, and who can forget the infamous “we haven’t seen a policeman round here”. Anyway, today is not the day, the population has spoken & Starmer has been given the mandate to choose his foreign sec. Let him at least start the job before piling in.
  3. Great to see Nige finally get a seat, and he proved to be a man of his word by decimating the Tories. Pleased for Tice as well, he could have thrown his toys out of the pram when Nige returned but knuckled down & got his rewards. Glad to see that twat Elwood getting binned in Bournemouth & pleased for IDS, although that was a bit of a fluke. He could have easily settled for a place in the lords, but stood up to be counted. Although I don’t share his politics, Parliament needs people like Jon Ashworth so it’s disappointing he’s lost to some Gaza loon. As someone who wishes the sweaties would fuck off, I’m dissatisfied with the SNP efforts as well. locally, fuck me, I’ve got a labour MP. I posted yesterday that a couple of polling station workers said something was happening locally, but never in a million years did I think we’d get a labour MP. A combination of taking voters for granted, Reform standing a paper candidate who didn’t really campaign & didn’t even live in Poole, and the complete fucking shafting Poole has had following the Tory led BCP merger, has cost Sir Robert his cushy seat. Although I posted if Symes is worried the Tories really are in trouble, it is quite unbelievable. Still, in a strange way it’s restored more faith in our democratic process. The bloke, the local party, & the local Tory council, did fuck all the 28 years I’ve been here, thinking they didn’t need to. I think they know differently now. Nige has been fighting against FPTP for a number of years, but on this I fundamentally disagree with him. Local people sending someone to Westminster to represent them is the purest form of democracy imo. Let’s see if this Labour bloke can do something for the Town & stick up for us. Fucking hell if he sorts out a new bridge to replace the ridiculous white elephant we’ve got at the moment, even I might vote for him in 2029.
  4. Sweaty blaming the Tories for SNP result 😂
  5. Davey is a massive cock Womble but there’s no need for the son dig. All I’ve read for years is how we need adults in the room, how we need serious politicians to address serious issues. Yet this fucking clown has got away with the most pathetic low grade campaign in living memory. Pound shop Boris who only got away with it because he’s on the “right” side. Fucking hell from Jo Swinsons massive tits, to a massive tit.
  6. Just nipped round to vote. Told I’d already voted, which I hadn’t. Luckily I knew one of the birds there who said she’d seen my son & Snap Dragon earlier , double checked and some dope had marked me off instead of son. Shambles. She’s been working polling day for years & said they’d been “ very busy”. Older sons Mrs is working another polling station & she told him it’s the busiest of the 3 GE’s she’s worked. Bit strange if there’s a big turnout as Sir Robert has a 19k majority, was a Brexiter & was quite hardline anti lockdown, so in line with a lot of the voters round here. Despite being a bit of an arse, and a fucking yes man, don’t see what’s driving the apparent possible large turnout. If he’s in trouble, the Tories will end up with about 50 seats.
  7. I wouldn’t know. I went to school under Grocer Heath & Wilson.
  8. Agreed 100% . Both for private individuals & companies. Companies should be incentivised to offer health insurance to ordinary Joe’s.
  9. Lefties, not pinkos. Get it right….
  10. Soggy & Nige on the same page..
  11. I wonder why 🤔 traipsing round hour after hour, come rain or shine. Pounding the streets day after day, stuffing leaflets in letter boxes that people don’t want, is one thing, being stuck listening to you discuss politics, quite another.
  12. Fucking hell, what a load of old pony. There’s probably more checks and balances than in any other democracy.
  13. Interesting???
  14. Brendan O’Neil pretty much summed it up. No surprise you’re fully signed up, “tosser class” indeed. “ I can think of no better insight into the cant of the tosser class than the fact they seem to think their annual five-day party in the mud deserves better protection than the nation itself. That they accord more moral weight to their right to listen to LCD Soundsystem than they do to Britain’s right to exercise sovereign dominion over its borders. ‘How dare those Tory scum try to stop the boats?!’, they no doubt mumble over a Camden Hells in the Avalon Inn while not a hundred metres away some security bruiser in a hi-vis vest is barking into a walkie-talkie: ‘Security breach on Fence 4!’ “Then there was Ros Atkins of the BBC djing on the Stonebridge Bar stage. Honestly, it was like a mid-life crisis put to music. He even played a drum’n’bass version of the BBC News theme tune. If that sounds like the most embarrassing thing you’ve ever heard of, that’s because it was. The sight of fortysomething Glasto people waving banners emblazoned with the letters ‘BBC’ as they jived to the music that kicks off every BBC news bulletin was borderline surreal. From dancing topless to the Kinks in 1970 to worshipping the state broadcaster as some kind of sun god of truth in 2024 – ladies and gentleman, Britain’s middle class.”
  15. Yeah, now festivals are full of middle class tossers thinking they’re edgy. I reckon Little Stevie had a result avoiding that pretentious pony.
  16. Why wasn’t he there, couldn’t he find the stage?
  17. You can “agree to disagree” over an opinion, but not a fact. There is a separation of powers in this country. Any law passed doesn’t magically bypass the SC. Had there not been an election the legislation would have been tested in the courts, and would have ended up in The SC again. The legislation was drafted around the previous judgement, so the SC would be deciding whether provisions put in the new legislation made Rwanda safe enough to send people there.
  18. Dear God….. The Government can legislate whatever the hell it wants, & if Parliament passes the act, it becomes law. The SC’s job is to decide whether that law is legal or not. It’s a complete separation of powers, so of course it’s fucking independent.
  19. It’s not black or white, safe or not. There were specific reasons the SC ruled against the Government, and the Government therefore drafted legislation to address those concerns, which was passed by Parliament . Whether the legislation would satisfy the SC or not, will never be known because it won’t get tested in the courts due to an incoming Government dropping the scheme.
  20. What was that Soogy, ECHR there to stop extremists abusing our human rights when in Government? Oh dear😂😂😂
  21. God forbid, Parliament being sovereign, we can’t have that. The British nation might vote for people to represent them you don’t agree with…Why do we need representative’s elected by the people to protect our human rights, when unelected judges from Serbia, Azerbaijan, Turkey & Andora will do it for us…….🤡
