@Dennynews The context aside (I believe bus and rail travel should be provided by the state and free to everyone) anyone who says £2m is a tiny amount, regardless of framing it alongside overall government spending, loses all credibility.
I’m economically left leaning-socially conservative. I’ve come to detest the modern progressive left with a vengeance. They’re deeply anti working class and viciously authoritarian. Plus, most of the fcukers wouldn’t know a proper days graft if it jumped out of their granola😁
@TheUmpteenth@IrvineWelsh Starmer will happily take it too 🤷♂️ and I have as much faith in him spending it wisely and not passing it to his mates as the Tories.
@edwinhayward@Otto_English 🤷♂️ Being a royalist isn't extreme. Supporting the royals against criticism of their "work", I've the lack thereof, makes you a royalist. Pretending otherwise is silly. Your tweet was insincere and on a public platform that got challenged.
@SNPCallum@andrewrennie Why even have members of parliament? Just have the seat won by a party and fill it in for votes with whoever's not busy at the time it's being held.
@SNPCallum@andrewrennie Distasteful religious views aside, I'd rather be represented by a politician who told me their principles, morals & views & then held to them. The whole idea of party politics is shocking, that we're voting in blank pages that just adopt whatever position their party tells them
@LizzieCarrEllis It does mean you can't earn ~£404,030 while thousands freeze and starve without feeling debilitating shame though.
Champagne Socialist moniker remains valid.
@4175Knight@GeorgeMcLachlan@ScotRugbyBlog The English were raging and embarrassed that we came back into that game. As we should be now with Wales. Standards should be high.
