So the price of one defunct Challenger 2 to the Emirates then? Id rather we not have a ****ing cluster ****
Fair do's to BOJO for his "Hasta La Vista Baby" ending, pissed Meself at how quick Nadine left the front bench to go give him one final nosh
Sunak is about, 5 million times more intelligent than Liz Truss. It's beyond obvious he knows an absolute **** ton about the economy, and is clearly an economist. Truss hasn't got a ****ing clue honestly. It's just, obvious she hasn't designed her own economic plan and therefore can't answer the questions levied at her, Sunak has clearly created his own plan and knows what to do. Truss is just a hard right Tory mouth piece.
I can't make a case for any of them particularly but Labour have totally lost the plot as far as I'm concerned. There's a long way back for them. It's not good to have an opposition that is so completely pathetic. They should have been capitalising on this current sh*t show but I've heard barely a peep out of them it's all about Rishi or Liz.
Here's a divide, the Tory's are having an election campaign and hosted their hustings and live debate in Stoke, a traditionally Labour voting area. Keir Starmer is having a speech, collecting votes... in Liverpool. A traditional Labour safe haven and a massive, massive echo chamber. The Labour Party need to fire every single one of their campaign managers to be honest, they're absolutely hopeless. They've been utterly useless ever since Ed took charge and changed how the party works. It's like how the Union in Britain has been fundamentally destroyed by Tony Blair, who broke up what it meant to be British in the first place. I don't like the Tory party in its current form at all, but I think the death of the UK started and was incompetently created by the Labour Party and therefore, they can **** off and never be in charge again. Devolving all power into little duchies was ****ing moronic.
there are some good politicians on the left. Cooper, Nandy, Streeting and if he came back David Milliband. their issue is the stench of Corbyn and people like Rayner and Abbott who just come across as thick as mince. At the moment the Tories aren’t being held to account and won’t be until Labour get their **** together.
Another issue Labour face is most of their MPs are Northern, Welsh and some are Scotch. Traditionally what people in the South view as dumb ****s. Keir sounds smart to them, but then you get another Labour MP and he starts ranting in a Yorkshire accent and most Londoners are gonna switch off.
Ed Miliband ****ed Labour forever the moment he stepped foot in Scotland hand in hand with Cameron prior to the Independence referendum.
Labour ****ed the union as soon as it expanded the devolved parliaments. Since the SNP took power the union has been all but dead, it simply doesn't exist. I dare you to go to Scotland and have a medical check, see how easy it is for "NHS Scotland" to get your medical records from the NHS or vice versa. Tony Blair, in his little pea brain, supported by that fat bloated oaf Gordon Brown, never ever conceived that one day Labour might NOT win Scotland. They wanted Wales and Scotland to be little Labour havens, independent from a possible Tory rule. Powerful and able to always have a safe bank of seats. Except he became the most hated politician in modern times and now the complete opposite has happened. And therefore, the country we all grew up in will be dead within 5 years in name. Luckily 50% of Wales population is English expats so they're never gonna leave. ffs the British Prime Minister meets the Scottish First Minister like he's visiting the US. They shake hands and have pictures taken together like its Washington DC.
I honestly believe it would be easy to swing Scotland again as the SNP have done **** all for well over a decade. When Salmond was in Charge they were quite forward thinking, and gave a load of easy wins that were deliverable. Free student places, free prescriptions, free child care.......way before Westminster thought of doing similar benefits. However the SNP have done **** all for over a decade, they've rested on their laurels and quite frankly have gone barking mad with Sturgeon in charge. They've turned into fun police. Banning happy hours at pubs, special offers on booze at super markets etc. They still push for independence but still can't answer simple questions such as currency, EU membership, Passports or funding. The one in Scotland that had me howling on how ****ed up it is, you have the former Scottish labour leader married to a former Scottish lib dem mp. The two things missing is a half decent labour leader in Westminster and a half decent Labour leader in Scotland.
Its a fundamental flaw in our political system though. Why have a two equal parts union in the first place, when one has a pop of 60m, a 2 trillion pound economy and a capital city ranking in as one of the largest and most historic on planet earth. And the other is ****ing Scotland.
Lol James' version of the union is slightly different from the one we actually have my friend. The one have now is a much worse deal for everyone apart from the Scots.
