    Just about everybody would realise that defunding the police wasn't right wing.
    In fact, only you would think that defunding the police was right wing.

    Boris Johnson's Conservative party are more left wing than Bill Clinton and Obama was.
    The left have gone so far left so fast they make Blair look right wing .
    Most of us have stayed in the same place the Conservatives are centre left in their actions and the left are practically Communist in Britain and America.

    Clinton and Obama are old school Democrats.
    The leading Democrats are now Harris, Warren and Sanders.... don't forget Biden just yet.

    I agree that the government seem to be scared of offending minorities but there's going to be a big backlash from the sensible majority in the country. Then the backbenchers will get involved.

    My views:

    Abortion rights - this is an incredibly difficult one to decide. both sides have good points.

    Affirmative action - best person for the job

    Free health care - I agree it should be free to people who have lived here all their lives

    Mass immigration - disagree

    Gun control - agree

    Gay marriage - agree

    Trans rights - disagree. men can dress as women. they can chop bits off. they are still men. similar with women.

    Political correctness - free speech

    Pushing diversity as a good thing - best person for the job. we dont want people coming to the UK and then push their hatred of British values.

    Pritti Patel is a total disaster and her points based system of immigration is so easy to pass that there will be far more applicants than before , we import something like 600, 000 people a year already.

    The boat ****ers are just a distraction the numbers are insignificant in comparison to the chain migration of the Third World and Eastern Europe.

    We may as well take a few million from Hong Kong there are over 7 million that could apply for British citizenship.

    Free health care is not a Tory position. Are you drunk?

    Gun control, really?

    You are a classic liberal Pete by your replies or as some on here would call you a Nazi .

    I agree with pretty much most of that but if a trans person wants surgery they should pay for it themselves.

    Anybody in the world can apply for British citizenship - except Shamima Begum!

    I thought it was about three million?

    If the Torys try to end free heathcare they would be booted out of office and they know it.

    We only lost our right to own guns after Dunblane and Hungerford.

    It's probably not a good idea to change it now though.

    Didn't read the last 10 or so comments. Can anybody tell me why the UK trade their quota back to EU countries...if it is true. A "company" in Northern Ireland "traded" a quota to a Dutch company etc for £7mil and they made £2.5mil profit and they don't even own a ****ing fishing boat. Like I said, I have not read the article, but, I'm getting a wee bit bored with this pish. Maybe my fenian friend @Ciaran could confirm or deny this?

    But the nutters who say at every election that the Tories are about to sell off the NHS ensure an extra few million votes for the Tories.

    Silly me, the NI "company" leased it out for £7mil a year and made operating profits of £2.5mil for the year.
