    I think you’ll be surprised. He ‘careers’ all over the place.

    It's all part of the Johnson's 'healing' process. Healing the ERG that is, the rest of the 'one nation' can go **** themselves.

    Corbyn is a multi-millionaire as are many of Labour's front bench. The fact Starmer had removed references to him being a millionaire just as he was being quoted as a front-runner would suggest it doesn't fit well with those who are voting for the new leader. Perhaps he should adopt a cockney accent and move to the East End although most of that area has been gentrified by his kind over the past 20 years...

    They've made assurances that they will implement their own workers' rights etc.

    The Tories have made a promising start imo.

    £34billion extra to the NHS enshrined in law; Every secondary school to get at least £5,000 per pupil and every primary pupil to get extra £4,000;
    Teachers' salaries to begin at £30,000 from 2022 (all part of a £14billion education fund for the next 3 years); Boost for renters' rights; Urgent review of social care with an immediate injection of £1billion; tighter restrictions on all forms of gambling; better treatment of our veterans and their families, to name just a few of the proposals.

    Sounds like a Socialist wish-list!!

    Now, I agree that austerity went too deep and lasted too long, so the Tories most definitely have to make amends.

    However, that's in the past and most of us want to look to the future, rather than continuing with the same old out of date arguments involving the "evil" Tories and how Brexit mustn't happen.

    I hope Boris will prove to be one of the most liberal, one Nation Tories ever. Time will tell.

    I’m hoping for a blowjob from Lisa Ann tonight which is about the same probability.

    They will all try to dis Boris without giving him a chance, however the British public from all ages, religions, wealth, education have put their faith in Boris and reject the crap alternatives. They have nothing else to do but bitch. Truth is Boris was electable unlike the rest.
    Has that bill passed yet? :emoticon-0100-smile

    No worries I just heard the Brexit bill went through by 124 majority. :emoticon-0100-smile
    I bet the opposition benches weren’t mocking Boris this time? <laugh>

    No. They were just pointing out the amendments which will **** over some of the world’s most vulnerable children. What a glorious win for this great country.

    Britain First have pledged their allegiance to Boris. More reasons to celebrate.

    I hear that independence party or Chuk (whatever they call themselves this week) has folded? That party definitely knew how to change.... 3 names in 4 weeks. :emoticon-0100-smile

    Not sure that’s relevant to anything. Cheering on the same causes as the far right seems to be fashionable now though.

    Watford the far-right is not fashionable. Corbyn, Labour and Limps Aren’t either. What is fashionable is democracy.
    All those that tried to thwart Brexit are resigned to the history books. The winner takes the spoils and people should accept it and move on.

    The bald, fat bloke in the top photo, is wearing a kilt in the bottom photo (and sunglasses and a false beard in case he's recognised) :emoticon-0100-smile

    I don’t think anyone should be blindly supporting the stunts they’ve pulled after just a week in charge. People are so desperate to crow about their great win that they’ll either ignore or forgive some seriously nasty stuff going down. I hoped for better to be honest.

    Thought this was interesting. Not a trend I'd noted before, and quite startling.

    I agree and I hope all those investigations into the Labour come out soon.
