Off Topic The Politics Thread

I'm a slim down monarchist, and send Andrew over to the US

 

Yeah sad, very sad. On faceache the other day a woman was let’s just say being rather rude about young Meghan, so I decided to pull her very poor attempt to use the English language apart. To which she replied, how dare I, I don’t know her. So I responded back, oh I agree but I’m only going on what I see be that on media social or otherwise... I’m hopeful she got my point, I’m not holding up much hope though.

 

You may be right. I probably flicked over it!

 

Andrew being protected just strengthens my case as to what a vile, depraved family they are. Anyone else would if quite rightly be inside eating ground up glass by now

 

Reminds me of when I upset someone at work when Di was being buried.....some people can’t take a joke

 

Seeing as this thread is now about various marital situations rather than politics: For your information:

Marina Wheeler, mother of several of the Prime Minister’s children, ill with cancer when he copped off with Carrie Symonds, has played a blinder in the divorce negotiations. Apparently she has achieved ‘one of the most devastatingly one sided (in her favour) settlements in divorce history’ according to a QC privy to the details. This includes a large percentage of Johnson’s future earnings.

Doubtless this is not as interesting to some as their rather odd obsession with a sad and pathetic celebrity/royal pairing, but as Johnson is actually prime minister and is said to be very poor in managing his personal finances, and yet is directly responsible for the country’s finances, perhaps it might be worth noting.

While I’m here, briefly, let me note my utter disgust at the government’s handling of Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe’s hideous experience in Iran. Good news that she has had her ankle bracelet removed today and has officially finished her five year sentence, bad news that she hasn’t got her British passport back and has to go back to court to face new charges next week. This poor woman and her family have suffered incredibly for no reason other than the admittedly vicious behaviour of the Irani revolutionary guards, holding her hostage for the £450m that Britain owes them, and what appears to be a permanent state of war between the Foreign Office and the Ministry of Defence preventing this being paid. Jeremy Hunt, former Foreign Secretary, was on the wireless this morning actually being rather good on this, admitting that it was all about the money which Britain admits it owes, and having talked to both Nazanin and her husband today, urging the current government to get this sorted. The actual foreign Secretary, Raab, managed an outraged tweet as his official communication on this.

The learning is that carrying a British passport does not mean the British government will help you, even if you are a blameless victim of inter government bullshit.

 

You’re surely not surprised Stan.
Once George becomes PM we’ll be living in a socialist utopia. Stay strong till then comrade

 

Plus nobody really gives a ****. Good on harry and megan, do what you like.

 

Is it too late for Johnson to say something that gets her another five years?

 

It stops us actually organising and protesting.
This kind of thing is the Heroin of the masses.
**** ‘em.....

 

As it ever was, unfortunately...

 

The royal family mean little to nothing to the ordinary person on the street. What harry and megan says doesnt change my life or anyones for that matter. It's a story that gets on the front page instead of the real issues!

 

Now give the real ****ing heroes of this country a pay rise you corrupt tory twats!!!!

 

The goes for a lot of stuff mate....instead of being politically aware, most are interested in Love Island, The Crown or I’m a ****ing celebrity.
Boils my piss sometimes

 

This George?
?

You should read the new style SDP website, very Paul Embrey/ Blue Labour/Red Tory, much more so that the Galloway outfit you’ve joined. All the ‘communitarian’ anti EU elements of UKIP are flocking there.

See you on the barricades Comrade !!

 

We all have to make friends with not so nice people Stan. Keep your friends close and your enemies closer

 

Er...it'll be front page news for the next few days in all but the Guardian. So there is interest, and although not a directly a political issue, I feel it's a significant enough ancillary topic for those that are interested (probably just me) to discuss...

 

to be fair, i didn't think anyone could then priti decided to give her a good run. Not sure which was worse

 

That’s because she is thick as s##t.
