Off Topic Politics Thread

My Brexit supporting Tory voting mate told me yesterday that we should fill the channel with bloody great crocodiles, alligators and piranha fish and fill the sea with mines. The navy should deploy submarines and torpedo the bastards and that was all said while we were waiting outside the pub and he hadn't had a drink yet. Once he had a beer in his hand the conversation turned to killer whales. A that point he was greeted with a chorus of FFS shut up.

He's a Tory with not a shred of compassion or empathy about him. We tolerate the nasty little fascist because he always has little snippets of inside info on the Saints. He was adamant that there are two more first team signings being lined up, one a winger and the other PEH's replacement which he reckons will astonish us all. He wouldn't name names as he said they would now where the leak came from and his contact would end up in really deep trouble as Saints are keeping it all hush hush to stop others stealing them from under their nose.

You heard it here first.

 

The lad from Chelsea I hope...

I was having a block then.

 

And to keep it back on topic of politics, we’re signing a blue to offset the reds a bit

Isn’t he worried that the refugees will launch so many boats that they would stretch back to the French coast, allowing them to build a Mulberry Harbour?
Then if the relatives of the refugees, already living in the UK did the same, they could just walk over. No need for boats.
Someone should tell him.

 

The Daily Mash with another irreverent look at politics.

A teacher revealing the damage being done to her students grades.

 

my mate’s son was predicted A* for physics. They’ve given him a D

 

WTF !
This is just so demoralising for the students.
As the teacher in the video says, they should go with the predicted grades from the teachers that know their true standards.

 

That’s disgraceful.

 

Have a read of this, which indicates class bias.

 

Well if the Tories acted like a proper Conservative party such as Germany's Christian Democrats, then we wouldn't mind. Alas the Johnson administration has its values on creating chaos, sowing the seeds of destruction and the división of British society.

 

I like some of the contributors

The footnote at the bottom of the text is worth a read:

LEGAL NOTE: In the event that this project runs into difficulties during the research and development stage, funds will be donated to a local project providing hot meals and activities to children from vulnerable families during the Summer Holidays in Essex. This is being organised by the guys at The Prince Of Wales pub in Stow Maries, and local volunteers are even providing transport for children to and from the site to ensure that nobody in the area goes hungry.

 

And it's a brilliant way of doing it, I could just picture people sitting around in a beer garden thinking up the names as they got pissed.

 

My daughter works at a school in Berkshire and she says it's dreadful what they've done. The children are distraught and the teachers (who worked like stink to calculate grades which were a reasonable estimate) are up in arms. This feckin' shower of government .........

 

Well I do hope those who voted Tory in Red Wall seats are happy now. Clearly that vote against The Elite worked a treat. Their kids get downgraded and the toffs kids get marked up.

 

That is simply awful

 

I am waiting to hear how my granddaughter got on.
