Election 2024

[PINKIE]

I doubt Farage sits at home seething about other races. More likely back then he was a combination of stupid and looking for attention. We at least know he’s open-minded enough to marry a foreigner and have foreigners buy him a house.

The same approach as his election campaign then

tbh i think everyone thinks that .

still think Johnson should be investigated about a scheme that was so clearly open to corruption

Everyone of them should be looked into and any money that can't be accounted for, go to the banks and the CEO of companies, all monetary digital transfer documents have to be kept for a minimum of 6 years and I think that counts from the end of that financial year it was paid in, so 6 +1. Start reeling these ****s in.

Agree with this. This money is traceable, it might need some legal wrangling to go after it, but they absolutely should.

We know that people like Mone will have set up Trust funds in the name of her kids, stashed money away in investments, shares, property etc

Root her out and the others that robbed this country blind when we were in a crisis.

Yes but you can’t knock its effectiveness. Social media has made a big difference to improve on his previous attempts.

I doubt he gives a toss about immigration, and he probably has most of his money hidden offshore in dodgy trusts. But he knows exactly how to appeal the worst instincts of the mob, and clearly has no hesitation in scapegoating migrants for personal gain.

Absolutely. It’s the same approach as Trump, play to the lowest common denominator and get people frothing about gays, transgender, immigrants, lefties and anybody else who they see as a threat.

Wrap it all up in a nationalistic message of fear that these people want to erode your culture and then let the social media freaks spread the panic and let the algorithms do the rest

Sadly it’s a winning formula because nobody really wants to listen to the actually rather dull stuff around policy implementation, balancing the books, costing for infrastructure etc

Having watched some of the Labour party conference, and for someone who voted them in power, I'm pretty disgusted to the new low that Starmer has stooped. If I wanted rhetoric politics I'd vote Farage - Today at least two of his high profile MP's engaged in what I'll call name calling.

Now cast your minds back after attacks on MP's remembering there are two dead after those attacks, and also on the back of Angela Rayner referring to Boris Johnson as scum, we were assurred by Starmer that the rhetoric was going to be cleaned up and in short stopped...'Setting the highest of standards in public life is not just about better behaviour or decision-making, though it will improve both.'

Yet today the media are more interested in the name calling, that took place, the very language that Keir promised to kick out of parliament more ot less. Looking at the newspaper reviews and I can see the Daily Mail headline for tomorrow is the day Labour dragged politics into the gutter. And you know what, they are right.

Clearly this has all occurred because the Prime Minister now see's Reform as the threat, I've never seen it like that, but after recent weeks, I'm starting to change my mind. If you want to get dragged into the sewer by Farage and Co, don't be surprised when no one votes for you.

Our next budget is in November, I've constantly asked myself why not in October, why only weeks from Christmas and 3 weeks before Parliament recess, my concern at the moment is nothing to do with the opposition, because the next General Election is 3-4 years away, I'm concerned about what you are going to do to food inflation, how many more people will be pushed onto food banks.

Utterly disgraceful by Labour today. Maybe they have nothing to offer which is why they are going down this road, sadly it will wait until the next politician to be attacked and I'll refer straight back to this day.

Language is important and today it reached a new low.

The sad thing is that Starmer has neither the basic intelligence or political nous to understand or accept that Reform won the last election for Labour by splitting the right of centre vote in half which also gifted the Lib Dems half of their seats

Just for the banz in the press and media I still wish he had the balls and political cunning to have made Farage a Life Peer for services to the Labour Party

That alone might have stopped Reform in its tracks and not resulted in the carnage and long term chaos in Local Government following the last batch of Elections

Reform are the biggest threat to political stability in this Country, not because they are allegedly racist or too friendly with Trump but because they do not have a clue over policy , their rhetoric is simply We wont do what the Tories did or what Labour are doing BUT do not have a clue about what they would do instead

And now Starmer has given Reform all the ammunition they needed to fight an ever increasing dirty political war against the Labour Party

Yeah I get pissed off with this gutter stuff, it never works out well when people take it down that road. Trump being the example currently, now everyone suffers because of it.

I think a good use for that money as it was money the Labour government would never have had if it wasn't for the courts...

I heard they've cut funding or someone has cut funding for domestic abuse centres, excellent use in my mind, chance for Starmer to make a statement to the good and make good political gain of this court victory.

Abused PPI money for abused victims.

Dont forget that allegedly Sunuk started these proceeding before the last Election

But never mind Labour will still claim the victory

like every Govt in my lifetime any success during their term is theirs any failures fault of previous Govt.

The last Govt were still trying to blame Labour for things 14 years into their tenure

tbh, I think labour have a good case for blaming the previous govt.

They do but the argument falls mainly on deaf ears. One term isn’t a realistic timeline to sort it out and 17 months certainly isn’t but people expected the country to be paved in gold a week after they got elected because we’re a thoroughly stupid country.

Nowadays everyone is campaigning all the time. Government is hard and not sexy headlines. The positives a government does influence happen quietly and over a period of time but people want it all right now and in a format they can digest in 10 seconds.

Yeah, I expect Starmers speech today about far-left thugs and 24hr courts set up to deal with them all. Show us you really aren’t Two Tier. The stage is yours.
