    All politicians use smokes and mirrors. Hilary Clinton "misspoke". But as I've said to Strolls, he hasn't been found to deliberately misled Parliament.

    Anyway, he's had his time, and we move on.

    Do you give credit to boris for stabby stabby london and the biggest mass migration to the uk when we were meant to have closed our borders off? Or does he only get credit for all the good things?

    Well, the Parliamentary Privileges Committee process is still ongoing. Johnson managed the spend £130k of public money on lawyers to ‘defend’ him before his colleagues kicked him out.

    Responsibility for policing in London lies with the Office of Mayor, Bobby. That is, stabby, stabby, Sadique Khan.

    Two blatant lies from Nicola Sturgeon.
    1. Scots deficit is less than the UK's (It's not- 12.3% vs 8.1%)
    2. Scotland trades more with the Rest of the world than with the rest of the UK (Totally untrue- £52bn to UK vs £35.1bn for rest of world)
    Lying is the norm for the SNP now.

    BREAKING In a further attempt to calm the markets, Jeremy Hunt will manacle the PM and parade her around College Green chanting ‘Shame, shame, shame’.

    She's saying Scots won't need passports to enter the UK if it joins the EU. I beg to differ. And UK citizens will need passports to enter Scotland. She concedes there will have to be checkpoints on the border. What border? A hedge?

    I’m sure Sturgeon only accidentally misrepresented its fine.

    Would you want to make it as difficult as possible for Scotland to leave the Union? And equally difficult if they did?

    It was ultimately the lies that got him sacked this time, too. I still think if he'd come straight out and admitted his error(s) and apologised people would have been broadly sympathetic - it was only a cake at the end of a meeting / one gathering outside etc etc. It was the continual lying about it (see spokesperson joking about the party before they admitted it happened) and treating everyone as fools that did it for him.

    This is a terrorist attack on our infrastructure to deny the use of a key transport link. It’s time you proscribed this terrorist organisation intent on damaging our economy and sanction those who fund it

    Modern security guards are a weird breed.
    Walk into a shop with your face exposed and they’ll go completely Gestapo on your ass.
    Walk into a shop and start pouring gallons of milk on the floor and they’ll just stand there watching you.

    Our 'Big' Hunt went on to say:
    "It is, however, right to borrow to fund the HS2 white elephant;
    to keep the scam laughingly known as 'Foreign Aid'
    going; and, above all, to ensure the insane Net Zero policy is maintained so that Britain is self-sufficient in power cuts by 2030."

    "But at a time when markets are rightly demanding commitment to sustainable public finances, it is not right to borrow to fund this tax cut." "So I have decided that the basic rate of income tax will remain at 20 per cent" https://telegraph.co.uk/politics/2022/10/17/politics-latest-news-jeremy-hunt-budget-liz-truss/…
