@JamesMelville I have to disagree with you on one point. He's not like a snake oil salesman at all. A snake oil salesman knows what he is selling isn't worth shit, Starmer genuinely believes he is absolutely right in everything he does. He is totally deluded!
If Keir Starmer had said before the election that he would remove the winter fuel allowance from millions of pensioners, punish the disabled with welfare cuts, enforce digital ID, appoint Peter Mandelson as UK ambassador to the US, sell out fishermen to the EU, give away £millions of money to overseas net zero and farming projects while hammering UK family farmers with inheritance tax, ban coal mines and new oil and gas licenses in the North Sea yet import £40bn of oil and gas from Norway (from the m North Sea), massively increase the national debt, increase the tax burden to record levels, increase the government deficit to record levels, destroy business confidence with national insurance increases, council tax & energy price increases, raise university tuition fees, transfer sovereignty of the Chagos Islands to Mauritius and pay £35bn in the process, plaster mass-scale solar panels on thousands of acres of prime farmland despite huge local community objections, talk tough on sorting out illegal migration yet small boats crossings have reached record levels, spaff £30bn of taxpayers’ money on carbon capture machines, give £3bn a year of taxpayers’ money to Ukraine and ratchet up hawkish warmongering rhetoric and get exposed for receiving over £100,000 worth of freebies - he almost certainly wouldn’t have won. He duped the electorate. An utterly shameless display of snake oil political salesmanship. And still he lectures all of us in that gratingly sanctimonious manner of his like we are all somehow the problem here.
@JamesMelville The only thing we know for sure about big Govt. is that if there is a way to royally fuck something up then they will undoubtedly find it, and spend a shed load in the process achieving that outcome. It's absolutely insane that they get away with it, and yet they do!
@Shockvalues@ImtiazMadmood Ditto! He allowed his ego to get the better of him. I joined Reform in July '24. Never renewed my membership after the way NF handled things with RL.
@healingwatersuk So how do we tackle this, how do we find out who is responsible and how do we make them accountable? To say 'they' or 'the government' is not clear enough. We need names and we need evidence of their involvement.
@GBNEWS Yep! Nothing worse than parents who don't control their kids when out. Not just in pubs but anywhere for that matter. Totally oblivious to other people's enjoyment, so long as their kids are having a good time. Good on the landlord 👊
@Ashwurld001@MarioNawfal All global economies are toast, this gives the US a 'get out of gaol free' card for messing it up ever since they ditched the gold standard.
@RupertLowe10 I ditched Reform last July after the way NF & his cronies went after RL. Restore UK is the only serious option for any genuine British national & I will be giving them my full support in any way I can. 'Power to the People!' ✊
@Artemisfornow It's up to £10k per person. Not sure if it's capped at £40k but yes, if this doesn't make them come flocking... On the news last night, a boat load of immigrants were being unloaded at Ramsgate. Didn't see a single woman or child.
@leofnblack@ronsterd89 There is something to be said about getting into a deep squat to take a dump. Find some quiet woods & go there. I swear, it's the closest you'll get to having a Spiritual Experience. One time, I thought I was in some woods, it was someone's garden. Guy thought I was a Sasquatch.
@ronsterd89 Yeah, they have these in France too. I was on a day trip once and was busting for a shit. I eventually found a public toilet but the fact there was no door either totally freaked me out. I held onto that shit until I got back on the ferry 😓
