Let's be honest, if someone does wrong or says wrong in any party then they should be sacked immediately. Speaking some words isn't half as bad as making mistakes that actually cost lives but nevertheless they should still be sacked.

Amazed you lot even bother talking about it when he’s **** enough to be nowhere near the intellectual equal of someone like Raab.
That's not what I said. I said he doesn't have the experience on the World stage as Raab does. He doesn't.

Such experience. Didn’t help Harry Dunn’s family much.

You said under normal circumstances Raab would walk all over Starmer in a debate. Starmer the former human rights lawyer and DPP.

No, I have been honest in the past re briefings. He was good today and was on the front foot. I get the impression that Boris return will come with a positive announcement.
Of course he will have some news. That's how it's set up for him. Miss the ****storm and come riding in like a hero knight on horseback. Ever so politically predictable.

I’m excited for the positive news. Not sure we need it though given how well the last few weeks have gone.

That’s not actually what I said but I get your point.

Today we will see at his first PMQ's how good or cr2p Starmer is.
No Boris so Raab will deputise. On a normal day, Raab would wipe the floor with him but this is all going to be about Coronavirus so Raab may struggle?
If Starmer doesn't score 100% with some of the government failings then he will be another loser like Jezza.

You won’t have much to moan about soon. Saying that I can still see the odd Brexit posts.
Great news our PM is back tomorrow and I expect a few positive things... maybe people will be allowed to visit family if they stick to the rules... something like that. :emoticon-0105-wink:

As I said... it’s not actually what I said. You should have used my quote in the first post.

Yeah this isn’t going to be over any time soon.

I can remember a time that wasn’t out of the ordinary. Was hoping for something better given the build-up.
 
Even for you that’s clutching.
This is how the Telegraph described Raab “would-be leader in waiting”. He is highly respected and that’s why he has the job he has. I stick by my comments. If he was debating on his strong point, from what I have seen from Starmer in the past ( lawyer or not) starmer would struggle.
Last weeks PMQs was an open goal for Starmer. Raab was always going to be on the back foot. Just wait and see how good he is when it comes to substance or having to make a decisions.
 
There are no official NHS figures as of yet for all deaths. Are you seriously clinging onto there being just over 20000 deaths while simultaneously lambasting China for fudging their numbers?

i think you need to use the official lets see how many are dead from this in 2 months time westie

In two months time it’ll be kicked down the road for another two months. There’s no doubt it’s nowhere near the 21k or whatever the official count is now.
