    I wish there was a hell for Norman Tebbit to spend eternity in...but there isn't.

    One can only hope (against experience) that he, Thatcher, Johnson, Truss and their like, remain notorious for their appalling lack of consideration towards this life's less fortunate and their names become bywords for greed, self-aggrandisement and dividing this nation.

    When we needed unity and direction most, we got these ****s.

    If I was being as judgmental as your are on some of us I could say that based on what you are posting you've been taken in by right wing and Russian propaganda designed to destabilise the West. However I don't know enough about you to be sure of that so I won't make such a claim.

    You just did <laugh>
    I am at a loss as to how you can draw such a conclusion from the left wing video's I have posted. I am watching the West destabilise itself as the world changes. Perhaps you might show where my comments have led you to suggest such a thing.

    Remember when government lies at least had some effort put into them?

    You are literally posting pro-Russian propaganda and claiming that is to uphold free speech and to call out the main stream media. The objective of Putin is to destabilise the western democracies so that he is free to do what he wants. You are aiding him in that by circulating his propaganda.

    Germany is understandably cautious about anything that it perceives as antisemitism.
    I assume that's why he decided to host his conference in Berlin.
    It seemed conveniently timed, as there's been an increasing call to ban AfD.
    They're making similar claims about being silenced by authoritarians, ironically.

    Varoufakis shares your view that Russia's invasion of Ukraine isn't black or white. You're both wrong.
    Any arguments made to the contrary fall apart with the slightest of examinations.
    The Stop The War/pacifist approach is just ridiculous, too.

    I didn't claim that you agreed with everything in the video that you posted.
    Your choice not to comment and avoid the question in response to me was transparent, though.
    If you don't want people to make their own conclusions about your motives, then it's easy to avoid.
    Scottish nationalists don't appear to have got over the Russian influence campaign from 2014.

    I think you've pointed out the real issue here.
    Why have they released this **** when they could easily just doctor it, even just the clock?
    They're stupid, but they're not that stupid.

    If you wish to post your views you are of course free to do so. Just posting 'you're wrong' is not a debate <laugh>
    As I said before, this is IMO a subject that is far too complex to cover in a few sentences.
    On Scottish matters I have noted your poorly informed English establishment views. It's pretty much the standard response I have received on this platform whenever Independence is raised. It does show the power of the right wing media and their adherence to British State propaganda, when it suits their agenda.
    I will continue to post political matter that is important IMO to the situation that Europe is in. My opinion to go with it is not important, but I think it's important that people see stuff other than MSM.
    I don't post this stuff in the hope of changing people's views, that rarely happens in politics. I post it in case like-minded people have not seen it.

    I am not sure you even watched the video because to describe it as Russian propaganda is very odd. Maybe you have seen other postings of Clare Daly that inform your view. I am not a follower, having not seen anything of her before this post. For me, this is just an MEP in the European Parliament pushing back against support for Israel. The position that puts the West on the wrong side of history, and that is now a majority view of the people and the world. Even MP's from both sides of the house are coming around to this view.
    For example.

    You don't want to debate, so why call for it?
    It's quite funny that you're criticising me for saying "you're wrong" and then do exactly that, though.
    People disagreeing with you doesn't make them poorly informed.
    She's not an MEP, though. She got voted out.
    Now that's poorly informed.
    Your example of MPs coming around to that view is two non-MPs.

    Feel free to keep making posts criticising the Israeli government, by the way.
    You'll get absolutely no pushback on here, as it's easily the majority view, including mine.
    I'd actually like to hear from some of those that disagree, to be honest.
    I've not seen any sensible arguments in favour of their recent actions.

    He's really trying to distract from his nonce-in-chief by bringing up the kids he got killed! <laugh>
    This will change absolutely no minds though, unfortunately.

    As for Epstein being an intelligence asset, it always surprises me that the press miss the obvious.
    Epstein worked with Ghislaine Maxwell. Ghislaine Maxwell's dad was Robert Maxwell.
    Robert Maxwell worked for Mossad and had connections to the KGB and MI6.
    It's hardly much of a leap, is it?

    Former PM Rishi Sunak takes job at Goldman Sachs:
    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cy0wpejeg1go
    He's still an MP.

    They probably should've headlined this as returns to Goldman Sachs, as it's not his first time.
    He was there between 2001 and 2004 before becoming a hedge fund manager.
    He left that all behind him after him and his pals crashed the economy in 2008.
    The return of the prodigal scum.
