  1. And this fucking idiot whinges that he gets treats with derision? Sees left wingers everywhere and in everyone - helps with his arguments he is largely having in his own head
  2. Don’t be so silly. The average pensioner is far better off under triple lock and the overall rise. Like farmers inheritance tax people become irrational and emotive with their arguments- it isn’t a pension or not, it is about non-means tested additional handouts going to those who very much don’t need the handout. And be under no illusion that most pensioners are net contributors and only getting what their contributions deserve.
  3. You have a point about complacency in defence that needs fixing but Russia don’t actually pose a threat in reality…..for now I don’t have faith that increase in defence spending won’t get largely wasted on contracts that suit companies as seen first hand MOD paying contractors huge day rates for sitting around doing fuck all
  4. Agree their communication has been poor but also need to factor in you have opposition established PR in media relentlessly attacking. They don’t care about news or truth just want everyone to feel shit about Labour. Think there is very little optimism anywhere politically given the state of the world. Natural to want govt to make your life better but reality is it isn’t happening for many anywhere. We have all got used to standard of living rising but that ain’t happening for foreseeable future.
  5. Who knew the simpleton gammons would be so easy to manipulate?

    Sometimes the internet makes me smile
  7. Very convenient to not mentioning hounding lecturers off campus and ensuring some don’t work again as seen as transphobic when have just questioned the bs of insisting on using pronouns. So not just about ‘giving a damn about other people’ you should read ‘The Coddling of the American Mind’ if you think it is just about showing kindness and respect
  8. I’m not of populist persuasion but immigration is a massive issue, and more so in Germany than here, and if the left leaning parties don’t acknowledge this they will be toast. Agree populists will come unstuck when trying to rule and become accountable for not delivering the milk and honey they promised. Politics is so depressing and all norms can now be challenged - never thought in my lifetime you’d get a US president in bed with Putin with 77million US citizens happy with this outcome. And even here that lunatic Truss somehow came to power although thankfully that was ended before the mad cow could do more damage.

    Russia

    3 years since invasion. Fuck me time flies
  10. Don’t forget number 4 turned out to be a white Supremacist after all as although being a Saudi he once posted a criticism of Islam so a far right terror attack obviously. So never jump to conclusions about Syrian Algerian, Afghani perpetrators.

    Israel

    Yeah Nic’s been so convincing and his compelling reasoning means I have now seen the light

    Elon Musk

    I really hope one of these sacked federal workers loses it and ends up killing Musk.

    Israel

    Welch lol. Did you read the article? Right to say degrading ceremonies of hostage handovers should cease. You know the one with your peace seeking Hamas boys holding up their AK47s. Of course they have absolutely no support from any Palestinians
  14. Guess the religion? https://news.sky.com/story/one-dead-and-police-stabbed-in-france-knife-attack-13314844
  15. I was thinking of going on Dragon’s Den with a pitch that I want to set up an agency for anyone who has questions about rivers. Aiming at an audience that have turned their backs on the internet. Given me an idea for one of the interview questions

    Israel

    They were cheering raping and butchering innocent people and boasting in WhatsApp on Oct 7th. But ignore that eh
  17. Muslims ✅ Hopkins✅
  18. Commentator’s seeming to think it is psychological genius to have a player other than the penalty taker hold the ball beforehand. Yeah no way Salah is taking this penalty as Curtis Jones is holding the ball……there’s a shock.
  19. Meloni and Johnson both been huge supporters of Ukraine. Haven’t seen their responses to Trump’s pathetic parroting of Putin but would be interested in how they react to their populist buddy.
  20. More heads of state should call him out and fuck the consequences. We need to live in a world where we can survive without US approval.
  21. Has anyone read the last chapter of Project 2025?

    Elon Musk

    Appeals to US sense of fair play that an unelected billionaire has the right to pull the plug on a toilet cleaner’s livelihood. https://news.sky.com/story/why-am-i-the-fat-workers-at-yosemite-the-latest-victims-of-musks-doge-cutbacks-13312392 ‘Greatest democracy in the world’. Such a fucked country and getting more fucked up by the day
  23. Don’t forget they are targeting low information people who by definition are easily influenced and fooled.

    Why can’t the Saudi’s just hack Lavrov to death and deny everything? Would definitely support their 2034 World Cup if they did
