How are Labour doing after their first 12 months

Clearly needs medical help, probably get a psychiatric report done on him and a restraining order (noted article does say the former).

Quite disturbing when people get like that, because they become unpredictable, thankfully the defence seems to suggest there is no malice, let's hope he keeps it that way.

If he's unemployed give him community work if deemed fit and capable, keep him occupied.
 
I think some of the things that people hated about Brexit are rightfully being discussed.

There was never a need for us to be out of certain lines at airports, that was the EU/UK being snidey. I am glad that's now being discussed again.

I think all this queue line stuff is just petty by whoever is implementing it, whether that be the EU or UK. If you want to keep me standing in a line for two hours, fair enough but they will have to pay someone that time to keep me there, rather than a robot ie modern tech doing the work.

I'm not comfortable with all this facial recognition technology they keep on about either, I think it's leading us down a slippery and dangerous path, even if it's being used to catch our most dangerous criminals.

It just seems to me, the techonology has failed to make us safer if we are having to use more and more stringent tools.

Has the world really become that dangerous a place, and is that because of free for all migration. I might as well **** off and sign up to Xi now.

I'm monitored over 24/7 now with all this tech, it's gone too far. Even supermarkets have cameras on you now at self checkouts, your monitored as a criminal whether you are one or not...

The standing in line at passport control was a direct consequence of Brexit. Unfortunately once we left the EU and the free movement it allowed, there has to be a way of recording entry and exit into a country. Even with e-reader being available in European airports, you still have to have your passport stamped which slowed the whole passport control process down.

Surely it's proved it's not necessary if they are going to lift the restrictions as part of this deal, which it seems they are, so what will they change about the process to accommodate it? Just not being stubborn it seems.

It sounds to me as they are relaxing the free movement rules, so the 90 day rule won’t exist, and as a result entry and exit data won’t be needed.

Took over an hour to queue to get into Portugal yesterday. They can have all the fish they want if that’s cut to 20 mins.

A few spanners decided they’d had enough and went to the EU line which was empty with three passport bods doing nothing. What must have been Portugal’s biggest man appeared from nowhere to them all to **** off and a few people had words with them when they tried to re-enter where they’d been. Don’t know where they ended up. Rule Britannia.
 
Standing in a queue is no issue whatsoever. Can’t believe people are still making a big deal over it.

I’ve still got a red passport, so for me in particular, Brexit has been a total failure.

They’re ****ed and they’ll be out in the wilderness for a good decade, now.

People saying they’re done for good are dreaming. They’ll be back governing again but it won’t be a for a very long time.

The only thing that stopped the original Liberal Party long long ago was an internal civil war, this gave Labour a once in a lifetime chance to leap frog them.

As we see in Canada, to this day the Liberal Party has never been replaced by a Labour Party.

So for the Tories to die out, we will need to see the party become ideologically split up and devoured

You can't really compare Canada or the USA to Europe. What they call liberal over there is pretty right wing by European standards. And socialism is a dirty word, somewhat akin in American eyes to Satanism.

The Tories are dead. The only chance they have of a revival is to ditch the nutters, manu of whom are defecting to Reform anyway, and regroup around what's left of the One Nation wing. But they won't be winning any general elections that way.

Agreed ... and 'Working Class Kemi' (because she once worked in a McDonalds) ensures their support will continue to plummet in one direction (sorry Liam) right up to the next GE...
