Well #Newsnight reached an all time low tonight. No attempt at balance at all. 3 smug politicians in the studio all trotting out tropes about Trump, @Nigel_Farage and @elonmusk and of course blaming "The Far Right" for people's anger. Not the refugee from Sudan.... for whom there seemed to be some sympathy! What contempt they, and @BBCNews, have for the British people.
@ColinBrazierTV Have missed your clear analysis & thought. Lived in Dubai since 2005 & turned off Sky News 10 years ago.
Looking at UK & way it is governed makes one want to weep!
UAE is not perfect, but clarity of rules, safety of individuals & opportunity for those who work hard are here.
Nice to hear from you, Andy. Thanks for the by election. We live for such things.
I’m in no doubt life is tough for lots of folk in Makerfield. But it’s hardly a poster child for urban squalor/deprivation.
Thatcher left power in 1990. She was followed by seven years of unThatcher Major and 13 years of Labour government, of which you were a part. So it’s quite a stretch to blame her for any continuing woes. Unless we blame Labour for failing to put anything right.
On the other hand the houses you were walking past were bought by the tenants under Thatcher’s right to buy scheme, which has given them some pride in place and some wealth they once could only have dreamt of accumulating.
I assume your pledge to ‘renationalise housing’ does not include taking these homes back into public ownership ... even if that would constitute a proper, radical reversal of the Thatcherism you’re (some what bizarrely) campaigning against.
@wadhwa@emirates Ah give it a rest dude. Different ticket prices get you different benefits my friend. Buy direct from https://t.co/NyZQCo0u6z next time rather than a bucket shop.
@MarcherReborn@dalesman1000 ….. at which point you roll the dice and leave for a zero tax environment like Dubai, back yourself, work hard and life can be very different.
🚨 Starmer Announces Bold Mission to Reopen Strait of Hormuz… After Iran and Trump Just Declared It Open
Starmer's masterplan: “We will lead a multinational mission to open the Strait of Hormuz.”
Iran & Trump just announced it's already fully open today 😂
Brilliant timing, Keir. The ships are sailing while you're still scheduling the planning meeting. 🤡
@jimcramer Days of Nike dominating are over.
And whomever prices goods in the Middle East at x2 US prices are idiots.
I buy everything in US and simply ship to Dubai rather than pay double locally.
Today, Keir Starmer has banned Kanye West from entering the UK because his “extremist views pose a threat to the country.”
But…
Last week, Keir Starmer invited a LITERAL ISIS TERRORIST to 10 Downing Street.
Isn't it funny how this "partnership" always requires the EU to be in charge, and the UK to pay for it.
Doesn't sound like much of a partnership to me.
