Weak, woke, wankers.

He did but that's neither here nor there, holding the position he did at the time he should have eaten a copious amount of shit for it.

Reminds me a bit of Trump supporters
As Trump said he could shoot someone on 5th Avenue and not lose a vote
Doing it in Minnesota now for real
 
 
It's not very complicated at all so I understand why you don't get it.

Some people have a skill or a persoal characteristic which makes them useful or liked and admired which means indiscretions are forgiven.

Othe people are just cunts and get treated accordingly.

Take John Prescott, John like Nigel was charismatic and people generally liked him so he got away with lamping a member of the public.

Mike Amesbury, like Starmer, is a rotten festering pus filled cսnt so when he lamped a member of the public he got porridge.

Crowborough has a Tory MP - Nus Ghani.
 
 
This is correct.

It's actually the Green Party's Deputy Leader Rachel Millward who objects to migrants being housed in her area.

I think I already said I voted for this Government 
Pay attention 
I didn't tell you to leave the country.

I'm still here because this is my beloved home and I am a 'somewhere' not an 'anywhere'

If you did, I missed it. So IF you did, please accept my apologies for accusing you of being evasive about it.

Apologies, I assumed it would be easily inferred. I voted Reform. I will vote Reform next time, too.

For avoidance of doubt, I am a Thatcherite who also voted for Brexit.

Are you prepared to be as frank and honest about voting Labour? We know someone must have.

You silly, pathetic cսnt.

This sort of made up bollocks is exactly why he is going to win the next election by landslide. Do you not understand that these childish fake orchestrated accusations are convincing people even more that a change is needed?

In fact, carry on with it.

Trying to work out how getting Braverman is a good thing for Reform. Reform supporters are well known for their top priority, by far, to be stopping the boats and getting rid of immigrants. Remind me again about how Braverman did on that score while she was Home Secretary? More small boat crossings than ever and spunked millions of tax payers pounds on a failed bid to swap a few asylum seekers that had shown up in the UK with some Rwandans.

Wes Streeting: student politics to public sector wonk to Labour mp. 

Versus

Richard Tice: very successful multi millionaire businessman before entering politics, was a leading driver in the Brexit movement (the biggest exercise in democracy in our generation) 

You silly sausage. 

The rest of your comment is depressingly childish twaddle about Nazis. Can you do better?
