Nah I’m just saying the fact you harp on about giving visas to white European refugees ahead of black African refugees is not a good look mate. Have a good day The good old days when you could describe James cleverly as such and not be some sort of racist on the policics thread because you voted differently Post 34286
Your and your mate Embery must be delighted by the way our government is dragging its feet over Ukrainian refugees. It's what Brexit was for after all.
Not at all Strolls….I just see the potentially problems with open borders. And the subconscious racism of those who put white Europeans ahead of Black Africans or Brown Middle Easterns. Shall we leave it at that
An interesting perspective, not from a Corbynista, but a life-long (until 2019) Tory voter..... Russia-Ukraine war: Jeremy Corbyn was right all along about Putin and his oligarchs | Middle East Eye
Just goes to confirm my thoughts that Labour are just as bad as the Tories. The fact that some on here are willing to over look that is, in my opinion, appalling and shameful.
Excellent piece. Its funny cos one sister in law has always said from day one that Johnson is Russias puppet.

**** me! Fuel prices increases twice in the same day at my local station yesterday! Went to work and diesel was 164.9p a litre. At lunch it was 170.9p and on the way home it was 176.9p. What the **** is this government going to do to help?! France, Spain, Netherlands all helping out in someway towards their peoples costs. What a ****ing mess this could turn out to be. Soon people wont even be able to afford to get to work, nevermind having any spare cash to keep the economy going.
I was just about to write about how crime will increase when low and behold someone has just done a runner at the same petrol station i mentioned above!!! A bloke infront of me said to the sales assistant, who was ringing the police, "the police soon wont be able to afford to drive out and investigate'! "Its you lot robbing us". Poor lass only works there, not her fault.
It's a disgrace. Over £100 to fill the car. The government should (but wont) be doing something to help. As you say, it won't be long til we can't afford to get to work
[sorry in advance Strolls] Nick Robinson has been sent to Berlin to read the news on the Today programme. He’s actually done a couple of quite interesting interviews, hampered by his lack of German, and his habit of talking over his interviewees to tell them 30,000 times how he was ‘here, on the Wall, on the fateful day in 1989’. Honestly, it’s incredible how pivotal he was to the fall of Iron Curtain, but there’s no chance of us forgetting it this morning. Little hard news in this segment, a lot of sentimentality and personal reminiscing. Disappointing. Ten thousand Ukrainian refugees arrived in Berlin yesterday. The German government has initiated a complete revolution in military spending, it will become the third highest spender in the world after the US and China. Germany and Italy still softer on sanctions than Poland and the Baltic states want. Some really hard news happening in Berlin, shame it wasn’t discussed in more depth.
Oborne is a fervently anti Boris Johnson Remainer who wants to draw attention to himself for career enhancing reasons. Let's not forget Corbyn wanted to leave NATO, lose the UK's nuclear deterrent and he refused to blame Russia for the Salisbury poisonings. What more is there to say?
