Season 2 was the best by far imo. Because it was about what happens to working class communities when capitalism ****s them over and moves on...
It's just one bare faced lie after another because there's pretty much no accountability.
What Was it sunak said again.
Integrity and accountability on every level or something
Mans done nothing but make infosys rich for years to come

Yeh he said that 3 hours before bringing back Cruella after she'd been sacked by his predecessor for breaking parliamentary rules
He's a slimy mendacious fcking toad.
Now, Richard Tice replied to a puff piece article against his party with threats.
Just what would he be like as an actual politician in our Parliament.
Reform are a disgusting little lot

I was lucky enough to pay cash for my house, as me and the missus had managed to save a large amount for a decade, and the father in law is pretty minted and ended up putting up around 40% of the cost.
So the mortgage rate **** has never really affected me, but my brothers 4 bed semi has gone from £360,000 5 years ago to £410,000 now (was valued just before Christmas), his mortgage payments have gone from £1,050 a month to 1,600 a month, and his council tax has gone up by £90 a month since he lived there too. Thats before we even get to the increase in energy costs.
And this is in Northampton, which, and lets be fair to Northampton, is a junkie **** hole.
Over the past three general elections, income has not been an indicator for voting intention. Which for years it was.
The biggest indicator right now for voting is age.
I think it's something like 70% of 18-20 year olds voted Labour.
The gap for the previous elections started at ages from about 45-50 when suddenly everyone starts voting Tory.
The last Tory majority was mostly pushed though by differences in leadership. Boris vs Corbyn.
Boris produced a simple message, appeared in all campaign ads, did speeches, loved to get muddy. He's a big election guy.
Corbyn avoided campaign ads, tried to focus on a bloated manifesto and stuck to privately arranged speeches organised by usually socialists or on one occasion, communists.
This election will be a cake walk for Labour. The Reform Party are splitting the Tory vote in the North and the Lib Dems are doing it in the south.
Labour have absolutely no opposition.
I dont think they will have for about 10/15 years tbh.
Such is the absolute mess the tories have made of the last 14 years, bit not for them obviously they've done brilliantly out of it, i mean us the people will not forget easily how fuking bad that party is for the normal working person.
A 14 year old kid now knows nothing but tory ****.
Austerity.
Lock downs
Cost of living
Nhs and every other public service they havent sold off to one of thier mates, all fuked, but all making record profits.
Theyve fuked themselves for a good decade at least.
Good riddance to the soggy biscuit toilet scum

And heres britain stuck back in the dark ages with, poisoned water, expensive everything, you die before you get a drs appointment, also youll have no teeth left by the time you find a dentist, it will cost you more than a plane ticket to europe to travel by train to up norf and yeh **** this ****hole
I agree with you completely. That's what should happen.
The reality is that pretty much most of the UK press will be on one mahoosiive propoganda drive to amplify every single thing they can from culture wars to economy to public services, in order to turn public opinion. And knowing the electorate in this country they'll probably buy it hook, line and sinker.
Anyone in their right mind knows Labour aren't going to fix the cesspit the Tories have left this country in, in one parliament. It's going to take a decade at least. But that won't stop the right wing media and Tufton Street think tanks on every news programme from claiming it's all Labour's fault the day after the GE. It'll be relentless.
Youre right of course but i dont think it will work as easily as it has in the past, again the tories have left such a mark on many people no amount of fake news or propaganda will make people forget what life is like under a tory government... Not for a long while i hope
As the Labour Party sit in power for longer and longer, they will slowly become corrupt, slowly have internal problems and eventually the Tories will regain their place.
In the grand scheme of things, the Tories have only had real threatening opposition a handful of times over the past 12 years.
Corbyn had a spell during the May days of decent polling, but still fell way short of threatening power.
The Labour party are in truth lucky, as they have no real opposition on the left. Jeremy Corbyn being essentially, a closet Communist gave way for Keir Starmer to purge his party. I think if Keir can keep his head, he could be Prime Minister for a while, Blair and Thatcher type legacy.
Just come back from two weeks in France. Then had to go back to collect my car, which broke down near Fontainebleau. Everything in France works (except my car, but a French mechanic fixed it).
Johnny Frog is always complaining about something. Probably, that’s why everything works, because they take to the streets in protest over there. We have too many forelock tugging serfs in this country, lapping up the Royal family, hanging out the bunting, getting wound up about flags, and celebrating getting lorded over by toffs. That’s why we’re ****ed - because the government does not fear the people.
Think of every British party, only the Lib Dems and Greens have advocated for weed legalisation
I think Tony Blair’s government was edging towards it, but their was a huge backlash at the time and they chickened out.
