What a night for the NF/BNP/Brexit/Racist party - four seats! They'll probably struggle to get any media attention though, what with all the fuss about the Greens getting the same number.
Why aren’t you concentrating on the great night for the Pro-Palestinian/Anti-Semitic/If You’ve Worked Hard & Made Money You Must Be Evil/Lockdown Harder & Sooner/We Love Girl Cock Party?
He’s busy looking at houses to get out of his Lib Dem constituency. Should text him really and check he’s good.
Farage has never in his life struggled to get media attention. I assume he'll continue a slot on GB News and do a lot of other media stuff. There may be an issue with a left wing biased Speaker in Parliament though. We'll see. I wouldn't gloat too much. Starmer's problems are just starting, both home and overseas. Though with trusted colleagues like Calamity Lammy, what could possibly go wrong?
Yes absolutely. I disagree with these Bad Eggs. Bad eggs are people that party when others are dying. Bad eggs are people that set rules for the ordinary people and then ignore them Bad Eggs go on holiday when they should be a PM Bad Eggs are people who make huge amounts of money that give PPE contracts to their friends to make millions Bad Eggs are people who crash the economy causing people mortgages to get out of control Bad Eggs are people who insider-bet on the election date...to make money. Uber and Goldie will you agree these people are bad eggs?
Starmers problems are just starting you are right there. 14 years have left the country bereft of money and international respect. He has a hell of a job.....he won't get all of it right. I just hope he can get some of it sorted
You specifically referred to Braverman as being a bad egg. She’s not exactly the most competent and intelligent individual who’s ever walked the earth, so I’m not her champion, but my suspicion is that you consider her to be a bad egg just because you vehemently disagree with her views on things like immigration.
I have no desire to defend Braverman or any of the others, but the smearing is just lazy. Problem is, there’s enough people out there happy to accept received opinion as fact.
Yes, the economy is on the mend, but debt to GDP is poor, as it is with other Western countries. Starmer really will be tested with little honeymoon. NATO meeting next week, I believe. Although Labour's manifesto did not indicate it, everyone is expecting "tax and spend", since that has always been Labour's default position. We'll see how that goes down with the electorate. As Ubes said, only 19% of the electorate voted for Labour this time around
I agree. Some of the senior Tories were idiots (Boris/parties, Truss/arrogance with the money markets), most MP's did a reasonable job. Bravaman is not a politician of the past, but of the future imo. She reflects the European problems with mass immigration. She needs to learn to temper her language at times, but her time will come again. I see this Labour government as a short interregnum. The next government will be right wing Tory/Reform
She was sacked/ had to resign by one PM for releasing confidential emails She has made some really cruel statements... Ms Braverman stoked controversy with her claims rough sleeping is a "lifestyle choice" and outlined plans to restrict homeless people from using tents. I am not the only one who thinks she is a bad egg.. Robert Buckland used his defeated candidate speech last night to lay into her.
