@julianHjessop Unfortunately for those on the right, Farage has very poor judgment. Tying Reform to obviously worthless rubbish like Bitcoin, and not anticipating that it would/might well blow before the next GE up is simply foolish
@OliDugmore I assume your position on this x100 with regard to Pakistani rape gangs. I note, however, that I can't find you having ever similarly condemned the mass rape, sexual torture and prostitution of tens of thousands of white children.
@afneil With Mandelson's history, a vigorous vetting that gave him a 100% bill of health would be the prerequisite to even considering him.
Starmer is a KC; his expertise is the interrogation of people and evidence. His endless, pathetic lies are sociopathic.
@JohnSimpsonNews Amazing how you and Bowen for decades remained entirely oblivious to those Hamas tunnels under schools and hospitals. Extraordinary how you both managed to miss the daily Nazi bile lessons in UNRWA schools.
You were entirely aware of these things but chose to lie and deceive
@meara72@andrew_lilico@dalipolitial "The words" .... "distorted the whole speech". "They" ... "edited" ... "his message"
I thought I'd just "edit" your post.
@julianHjessop@robprogressive The better question would be: why should people pay vastly different amounts of council tax simply because the place where they live has a particular set of demographics whose cost of care and support central govt chose to impose on local councils instead of general taxation?
@Wilbaforce12@BBCNewsnight Exactly. The great love of the "progressive" left for the EU, the ECHR and the various treaties they signed Britain up to is because it entrenches their wholly destructive idiotic ideas, binding future democratically elected national governments
@TallyCat8@julianHjessop Businesses are factoring in the increased costs of employment. That is why they by reducing their workforce and raising prices.
@EdwardMDruce@jaredkushner@eladgil@saranormous Political commentators often resort to the refrain that "the government has run out of ideas"
At this point, there aren't any new ideas and if a government is struggling it's because they are pursuing proven bad, failed policies instead of what has been shown to work.
@pedro118118@afneil I don't disagree that the Tories handled the pandemic abysmally.
But Labour don't get off the hook. They savaged the govt for slow precurement of PPE so the govt loosened the rules.
Labour demanded furlough and benefit uplifts continue and more for more lockdowns
@pedro118118@afneil It obviously isn't irrelevant. If Labour were warning against government debt and demanding spending reductions, they could fairly say that this mess is not their fault. But not only were there agreeing with the Tories reckless spending they demanded more of it.
@pedro118118@afneil Perhaps you can give some examples of when Labour were demanding cuts to public spending rather than increases, or Lower Covid handouts and lockdowns rather than more of both.
@DanielJHannan I have to assume that the main qualities the parties look for when employing political advisors, is the complete absence of any common sense or ability to foresee the most glaringly obvious natural consequences of taking a course of action.
