  1. Hitler had some crackers didn’t he? (Godwin’s Law invoked). Where did I say I was against them? I was simply pointing out that the Tories use reparation too. As for take back control and get Brexit done…what happened there? 😂 The people you support lost control and the only thing “done” about Brexit is the UK economy!
  2. Seems a bit bizarre to struggle with an obvious point. Every election in the last few years the Tories have come up with soundbites that they all repeat ad infinitum yet Delldays thinks that this is some kind of gotcha. A slogan is a slogan Duckie, you should be aware of that given the use of them through history by the people your hero Nigel “NF” Farage idolises.
  3. Which would have been an absolutely cracking post only you clearly haven’t read any of my posts where I say I have no time for Owen Jones or his politics. Try harder. 😘
  4. Still work to be done. https://amp.theguardian.com/politics/article/2024/jun/16/left-right-cut-labour-vote-low-turnout-campaign-voters
  5. “Strong and stable government” - May ”Get brexit done” - Johnson ”Labour will raise your taxes by £2000” - Sunak

    That’s that then. https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/world-news/putin-stashes-food-secret-bunker-33036406.amp
  7. He’s completely missed the point!
  8. Whoosh
  9. He was in hospital with sepsis apparently. Only 54 years old. RIP
  10. Karma. With the media being polluted with so many dreadful people at the moment it makes a pleasant change to see a genuinely decent person make the news for being just that.
  11. Depending on if he is any good.
  12. Laura Trott saying that the latest poll showing Reform ahead of them is a “wake up call.” Perhaps they should rebrand themselves as the Rip Van Winkle party? 🙄
  13. Using your logic do you think that Farage would like to rejoin? Angela Rayner has been surprisingly restrained so far. I assume that she has been coached to hold it in and just let the Tories hang themselves. No point in getting involved too much when they are doing such a good job of losing the election themselves.
  14. They will be right to blame anything shit on Brexit as it has caused so much economic damage to this country. The Greens have been open about the EU and like you, I think that, once the dust settles on this election, there will be better and more honest discussion on the effect of leaving the EU (and more BS from the self elected leader of the opposition).
  15. Stop sitting on the fence Rallyboy. Tell us what you really think. 😉
  16. https://yougov.co.uk/topics/politics/trackers/conservative-party-alignment Strange chap, laughing at a government poll. Poor old hypo, it sounds like delirium is setting in. We can safely assume now that he and Duckhunter will be voting Reform, the party where at least 41 candidates are linked to the modern day equivalent of Oswald Mosley and its leader used to sing songs about gassing Jews.
  17. https://yougov.co.uk/politics/articles/48322-tories-now-seen-as-being-as-right-wing-as-2014-16-era-ukip https://nickcohen.substack.com/p/the-conservative-party-is-a-far-right The harder right someone’s politics, the more they claim not to be. Strange how someone who claims to call out antisemitism actively supports and votes for the antisemitic Nigel Farage. The same Nigel Farage who is talking about leading a “centre right” party. 😂
  18. Further problems. https://amp.theguardian.com/politics/article/2024/jun/13/dutch-lorry-drivers-uk-post-brexit-delays-dutch-hauliers The Chuckle Brothers think it is funny though. Perhaps I should rename them as the Odd Couple?
  19. Hence “climate change”
  20. https://news.sky.com/story/amp/greece-athens-closes-acropolis-and-schools-as-heatwave-strikes-13151940
  21. Good solid speech from Starmer , sounding very Prime Ministerial. A period of stability sounds is exactly what we need. No more drama and chaos.
  22. It will make a change to have a decent front bench with normal people who genuinely seem keen to get on with the job of turning things around and putting the needs of the country first. Goodbye massive egos, self interest and total incompetence. Starmer might not set the stage alight but he has put a strong team together and is solid and focussed. He has the makings of a good, if workmanlike PM which is no bad thing after the succession of hopeless/flakey predecessors. Agree with the comments about Wes Streeting. He is on LBC a lot and always comes across well as he does on QT.
  23. I think they would go to Goztepe.
  24. Calm down. I didn’t say anything about being surprised. I am not obsessed with it. I mentioned it because someone said that Reform were not linked with far right politics. I have never heard of this Raikes bloke until the reports today that he was linked with 41 Reform candidates. Given the rise of far right politics through Europe surely it is worth making it clear to people where their vote might be going? Not everyone has their finger on the pulse as you do. No one is saying that they do not have a right to stand, but they are not some cuddly little party and a safe place for the disaffected moderate Tory voters.They need to be exposed for what many of the candidates are - supporters of a far right agenda. You call them a fringe nuisance but they are already showing well n the polls for a new party and with someone like Farage in the headlines everyday there is no reason why their influence cannot grow. Look at the damage Farage and his followers did over Brexit, and that was outside of Parliament. I see the Chuckle Brothers are back again. Fascists are always good for a laugh aren’t they?
  25. Can we talk about Reform’s links with the far right yet? https://www.thetimes.com/uk/politics/article/reform-uk-candidates-are-facebook-friends-with-fascist-leader-8zzhzxjkt Who is Gary Raikes? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gary_Raikes
