This is the man who was responsible for identifying Brexit benefits and after several years he came up with something about signs in tunnels - which turned out to be bullshit anyway. GBeebies viewers will think he's clever because of the way he talks, but the substance is gossamer thin - £140,000 for ****'s sake!

Purkiss was spot on in that the Tories want to fight a culture wars election (30p Lee has said as much) because they can't afford to fight on their record in government. Make people angry enough about which toilet people use and they might forget about how the Tories have raped the country.

The Tories don't need to say much on culture. If Lord Keir claims women have penises and does nothing to stop the dinghies, he'll blow his chance like Corbyn did.
 
Yet those who cry about their freedom of speech being impinged while hosting television shows and writing newspaper columns seek to shut down someone for saying something demonstrably true and legal.

Lineker expresses opinions, which cannot be categorised as true or false.

And it may be unlawful if he's in breach of his service contract

His opinion on the government’s stance on migrants was demonstrably true. There were numerous parallels to the early days of Hitler’s regime.

In my opinion the Tory MPs trying to shut him down are corrupt sex cases promoted to a position way beyond their capabilities as reward for backing the holy Brexit cult. Fortunately I’m not with the BBC.

What a load of biased bollocks you come out with, Watford. Name the parallels?

The demonisation of the opposition, judges and anyone who isn’t buying into their low-appeal brand of ‘Conservatism’.

Encouraging resentment of vulnerable groups and those who try to defend them.

Manufactured and since disproved facts to appeal to low IQ right wing voters.

Anyway, off to Stoke. I’m not drinking so will almost certainly say hi from the train.

Demonisation, in the month that Labour accuse Sunak personally of favouring sex offenders?

Hitler was trying to remove minorities, and later ended up murdering them in millions. The Tories want to break up organised crime's activities in putting people into unsafe vessels in order to enter the country illegally.

Manufactured facts? No idea what you're on about.

Enjoy Stoke, and don't come back without at least a point.

Probably a 3-0 defeat and my head kicked in but we live in hope.

These things may be what you care most about but most people care more about whether they can put food on the table and whether they can get treated when they or their family get ill. Trans really isn't an issue at all for the vast majority and stopping the boats can easily be achieved by opening safe routes and allowing asylum applications from overseas. The scumbag media whip up hysteria about these things on behalf of the Tories, who know full well they can't win on real issues.

According to the polls, 2/3rds of voters support Rwanda but believe Human Rights laws will prevent it happening.

Women aren't anti trans but they are pro women and girls' safety. Starmer and the rest of Labour are all over the place over what a woman is, and that's half the population

GBNews polls? Daily Mail polls? Or Britain First polls?
