    I know loads of people who’ve been affected by Brexit; not one of them in a positive way.

    As for the Covid triumph;

    £35 billion spunked on Test and Trace, enriching one of Bojo’s posh chums while achieving nothing. God knows how much given to companies that failed to provide any PPE, while also enriching Lord Snooty’s pals. Yeah, what a ****ing triumph.

    You have every right to be jubilant though tbf. Boris and his cronies have shat all over the working people this country, but still they love him. I have have no idea how we came to this point, and can only conclude that we’re totally ****ed on every level, and probably deserves it.

    Can you name one Labour MP that even vaguely represents the British working classes Archie ?

    They are all lawyers or woke intersectionality activists .

    Black Marxist , racist single mum to a violent drug addict son that likes attacking NHS staff and police whilst high on meth and crack .

    Sadly that's the closest thing to a role model for the British working classes .

    It doesn't help that she hates the British people .

    I think it's really sweet that you have so much emotion for all those you have decided are victims, and you think are too thick to understand the problems. It's just a shame you do **** all about but whine on a lightly used football forum.

    Test and trace is and has been a total and utter **** up. A complete waste of dosh. They've failed the taxpayer big time with that.

    Any MP proven to have acted underhanded in awarding contracts to their mates should have no place in a government. I don't blanket cover that though as there's instances with lefties kicking off that I don't agree with, like the texts between Boris and Dyson. That looked to me to be in the national interest at a time when the country was in a state of panic.

    I know we got attacked saying we can't look back in hindsight but that's all Starmer does so... If Corbyn and his Sinn Fein loving mate had got in, after spending billions to supply us all with free £20 broadband (whoopee doo) and all the other freebies we were promised, would a Labour government have been able to afford to get us through this pandemic? I seriously doubt it.

    Saying we are totally and utterly ****ed on every level goes against all the economic experts, btw. They don't have that same level of pessimism about our future after leaving the European Union, that you seem to have.

    Yes but you're a ****ing poof that gets by day to day by doing drugs. You're involvement is irrelevant.

    Is that a different Tracy Brabin to the one who was accused of breaking electoral law by giving cakes to voters? Apparently West Yorkshire Police received a complaint but concluded that she had only been giving them to Party workers – or at least that is what Labour told them.

    Talk about let them eat cake...

    If she becomes Mayor, she is going to put all the bus services in West Yorkshire under public control. So roads are going to become even more congested with bus lanes everywhere for empty buses and everyone in their cars to get around. Local government is the bastion of utter incompetence, keeping the people that are not good enough for the private sector off the streets.

    Labour are facing an existential crisis and it has been created by the London Metropolitan Elite. They take Labour voters North of Watford for granted. For generations, if your parents voted Labour you voted Labour. It was simple.

    The far Left took over the Party membership when Ed Miliband let them all back in the Party at £3 a head and they put Muppet Jeremy Corbyn in charge. He promised everybody everything for free with the rich picking up the bill. Strangely lots of people did not buy that one. Corbyn started out as a Brexiteer but then decided to sit on the fence when immigrant-heavy Remain London grumbled, so Leave voting post Industrial Northern Britain voted for “Get Brexit Done” Boris.

    Labour only retained Hartlepool in 2019 because the Brexit Party split the Leave vote with the Tories.

    Dame Kelly Stormer is just a woke virtue signaller, getting up on one knee for the BLM anarchists and taking photo opportunities with rolls of wallpaper at John Lewis rather than actually putting up any credible opposition to government policies.

    The Tories had a 17 point lead in a Hartlepool poll and that looks terminal for Labour’s Remainer candidate if voters actually bother to turn out; but they will not win by that sort of landslide. Stormer has already been laying the foundations for his Friday excuses but Labour’s total disconnect with their blue collar core voter has not just happened in the last eighteen months. It started with lifetime loser Corbyn back in 2015.

    Spotting an ideological far Left nutter is very easy these days: they have a Labour Party membership card dated 2015.

    You did not read Marxist McDonnell’s manifesto. They would have been much more aggressive in the Magic Money Forest. Socialist Sunak has spent just a few leaves compared to what the loonies had in mind. By this time last year, McDonnell would have nationalised just about everything as an emergency measure with virtually no recompense leaving anybody with a private pension completely screwed. Although I have no doubt that McCluskey and friends would have got loads of dosh to splash on any old three days a week contracts. The ‘new normal’ would quickly become virtually-no-working from home for everyone; but who needs to work when everything is free?

    As far as Test and Trace is concerned I am staggered that anybody is surprised that it was an unmitigated disaster. In just the thirty years working in I.T., I have never seen any big technology contract delivered on time or remotely near to cost under a government of any colour. They might get that NHS computerised records system working in the year 2525, if man is still alive.

    It goes to show how things have fallen for Labour when the Torys are still way ahead in the poll and they are a shower of ****.

    Labour still don't get it that calling the majority of the countries voting base stupid and racist doesn’t win elections.

    They openly positively discriminate against straight white British men at the expense of ALL the so called marginalised protected characteristic groups.

    It's got to the stage where blokes have to pretend to be women to qualify for their all female shortlists .

    And Owen Jones and Sir Rodney stand their scratching their heads saying perhaps we aren't radically socialist enough for these plebs .
