never saw that mate or read it anywhere, mind you i lived in europe 25 years till last december when i came home
Suella Braverman saying all the right things, and is already pissing off the lefties, which is a great start. Like this twat Sunny Hundal from The Independent: But make no mistake, Suella Braverman would also be hugely divisive, turbocharging Britain’s Brexit divide and our culture wars. She would be Boris Johnson on steroids, a brown, female version of Trump. And that deeply worries me. Braverman is likely to be a strong contender. Her pitch is: "I’m the daughter of immigrants who is intensely proud of her country and deeply patriotic. I don’t just passionately believe in Brexit, but as attorney general, I worked tirelessly to ensure the law was on our side. Brexit isn’t working because Remainers have tried to thwart it, and I will ensure that doesn’t happen. Plus, I hate all this ‘woke’ nonsense and will take a strong stand against it." Remainer Conspiracy? Tick! Get Brexit Done? Tick! Woke nonsense? Tick! Can’t accuse her of being racist? Tick! Can’t accuse those voting for her of being racist? Big tick!! If she performs well at the hustings, she could be a shoo-in. And that’s precisely what worries me. On Brexit, Braverman isn’t just a believer but a conspiracy theorist. Last week, she told the Telegraphthat Brexit wasn’t working well because some civil servants were resisting reforms as they could not imagine “life outside of the EU”. As attorney general, she has been accused of generously interpreting the law to help the Brexit agenda, rather than upholding it in a fair manner and being a constitutional check on the government, as she is supposed to. She deemed it entirely legal to rip up the treaty that Boris Johnson had signed with the EU over Northern Ireland, to the horror of the legal profession, choosing to support her leader rather than advise him against breaking international law. More broadly, Braverman is adept at fighting the “culture wars”. She recently said she was proud of the British Empire “[My parents] were born under the British Empire in the 1940s, and they have nothing but good things to tell me about the mother country” – well, I guess only their experience counts. She also told the Telegraph that the left was unpatriotic and ashamed of Britain. After four people were acquitted of taking down the statue of British slaver Robert Colston, she was accused of politically driven meddling in the case, after saying she was considering referring it to an appeal. But Braverman is a strong candidate precisely because she has taken the above stances. She knows this. The Conservative Party want a candidate unafraid to deepen the cultural divides created by Brexit, to preserve the winning coalition that Boris Johnson built. She won’t just carry the torch for Brexit, she will wage a “war on woke” while doing so. She is Boris Johnson’s natural successor, in other words. She will be our version of Trump.
He’s an arch remoaner who wants to get the UK back in the corrupt EU Roger - just like Jeremy Hunt - they can **** right off
I don't think she'll get it but she'd probably be my pick. Wants to cut tax, is against "wokism", wanted a hard Brexit and wants out of ECHR.
Exactly Stonkin unfortunately I agree I don’t think she’ll get it either but stranger things have happened. If she somehow made it to the last two the membership will vote her in I reckon.
sounds like my girl to vote for bit of blue wode on the face and England's answer to Braveheart please log in to view this image
Not quite right Rog, foreign born people can be elected to the Australian parliament and even become PM, we've had two recently, Abbott & Gillard, they just can't be dual citizens and have to renounce citizenship of any other country but Australia.
Unfortunately she is up against the establishment and media for the reasons given, would piss a lot of people off if she did make it.......is Enoch still lurking around the hallowed halls
Do we? I think you'll find that ex-PM Julia Guillard was Welsh born. I think you may be thinking USA.
I’ve no faith in any of them the set of back stabbing barstewards, their all about feathering their own nests. The establishment and the press were after Boris from the moment he was elected. I’ve given up on politicians of all parties they are the ruination of this once great country, so to all politicians
It’s actually not such a sweeping statement to make este. When the tax burden is at it’s highest for 70 years, and have gone beyond the point where they’re now doing more harm than good, it’s easy to say they’ll cut taxes and to actually do it. Even 0.01% counts as a cut though so they can say they did as promised - the crafty ****ers
Kemi Badenoch and Suella Braverman seem to be the only two who are in touch with what most normal people actually want ffs the others are in it for themselves, globalists who won’t change a thing. As bad as the choices are though they’re all better than Starmer, who can’t even define what a woman is, the ****ing woketard.
