There. Resident WHO political commentators and gurus can knock yourselves out in here and conduct your endless bickering. All other threads will be locked.

It was hard given the Tories were in power for 14 years
How did THEY get on?
EVERY time they tried anything LABOUR, LIB DEMS, GREENS, bent lawyers, NGOs all lost their collective shit and derailed it. We haven't forgotten what they did which is why their sudden shift is so laughable and drives Farage closer to power everyday.

Of course
Starmer Sunak Truss Johnson & Cameron … probably the worst 5 PM’s in living memory.
This government has been as dithering & incompetent as the last
Starmer is supposed to be a Kings Counsel so you’d expect some charisma & eloquence but he is a gibbering confused mess
Reeves is promoted well beyond her competence & this delayed budget & flip flopping is beyond belief
I hear the latest wheeze is restricting salary sacrifice into pensions so people are less likely to provide for their own retirement. All while politicians sit on gold plated pensions
They are all dismal which could see an even worse result … the idiot Farage
What a time to be alive
"Starmer is supposed to be a Kings Counsel so you’d expect some charisma & eloquence but he is a gibbering confused mess"
I've made this point before. It blows my mind how dull he is. I've known barristers socially, and although they are slippery, disingenuous buggers, they are not short on wit and charisma. I wonder how much time Starmer actually spent in court, as opposed to background managerial stuff. I just can't see him being successful at trial.

Yes Sven, the Tories were as equally useless as this lot. But that was then, they can only blame the past for so long and then they realise its now their shit to not out. In a few short months we have gone from all being labelled as far right for expressing concerns over illegal immigration to we're getting this sorted.
Disingenuous scum the lot of them.
This is only (ONLY) about Labour staying in power - fuck the country and it's people, government office is all.
They've also realised that they can't keep bad-mouthing UK Reform (/Brexit) (although some of the more sheepish MSM still keep trying), because whatever it is UK Reform are saying, more and more people (voters) are starting to align with their expressed views.

Asylum no longer to be granted permanently apparently. And that needs to be applied retroactively to every asylum claim since it's inception.
Kweer is absolutely shitting himself.
Check their passport records. If they've returned home at any point for a trip, they're safe and can go back permanently.

Yet more examples of the contempt these cunts hold for us. Do they really think we wont notice that they have suddenly started playing the hard man on immigration because they have to? If they were genuine, this could have been their position ages ago.

If anyone after seeing this is now not aware of the state's priorities and where British residents' needs sit in their (the state's) pecking order, they should be now.

I stand corrected but it took a bit of finding. I searched for "Bristol" on the BBC app home page and not a mention among the other Bristol reports.

Splodder, I read about the Bristol grooming gang on12 November, BBC News app.
Once on an App but not on their main News channel? Interesting.

The usual story with foreign aid to countries with nuclear & weapons programmes is that relatively small amount of ‘aid’ is a bribe so they will buy the weapons from the UK

Didn't see the Bristol rapist gang reported anywhere on the good old unbiased Beeb!
That's because this Country clearly doesn't have an issue at all with rape gangs. You're just a racist. Now pass go and collect your 200 Britcard points..

There was a very good video, maybe on instagram, which details all the money the uk has handed out to various causes home & abroad. And yet we have a £xbn black hole that keeps changing to fit their narrative.

Much of politics leads to some severe head scratching for me but the one thing above all other that baffles/angers me is why are we giving aid to countries who have a ( not cheap) ongoing nuclear programme? Especially when our economy is down the shitter and getting worse by the day.

Are we still handing out (ring fenced) foreign aid to nuclear states and despots? That needs to be knocked squarely on the head and the savings used to help fill the black hole.
Same goes for renewable fuel subsidies - none to be paid until the nation's debt has been roped in, whatever the cost elsewhere/further down the line. The government, like West Ham, has an obvious cash flow issue that needs proper management.
In fact, anything we don't actually need should be de-funded completely by the treasury until the nation is in a fit fiscal state to afford it.
Deciding what we "need" could get rather feisty, though.

In other news, Rachel from accounts may have changed her mind (or had it changed for her) about raising income tax.
They uploaded a new sub-routine to the Rachelbot.

Does calling ordinary people demonstrating outside migrant hotels a Nazi, qualify as hate speech? Especially when shouted by far left extremisy who themselves actually behave like Herr Hitler's brown shirts?
It's certainly slander. I think it's about time something was done about that law so it doesn't cost the price of a house to prosecute it.
In this instance present a video of said unwashed commie rabble screaming Nazi at people protecting their kids, over in minutes, guilty all day. Flat fee 500 quid for 10 minutes work.
Each commie tried separately against a class action of the victims. Bankrupt the cunts for generations.
Could even make a sport of it.
Can't afford a holiday? Hit the town centre with a common sense slogan about women's reproductive organ, wait for retarded commies, film the slander, sue, relax on a beach for a fortnight.
