Woke watch

Post arsene york-hunt »

"There is a very good section on GB news where the ludicrous idiocies of Wokeness are looked at I thought we would should have one for WHO. I'll start with Baptiste on BBC: In Hungary,an ambassador's family are kidnapped by Islamic terrorists and carry out atrocities. At the end of the last episode Baptiste finds out that it is a false flag operation and conveniently, the real culprits are white supremacists who want to stop all immigration. Coronation Street ITV a gay black footballer is stopped by the police, because he is driving an expensive car. He is pushed to the ground during an altercation, and damages his leg threatening his career. Could have been written by Dawn Butler or a BLM activist."

No I didn’t. You’ve made that up again.
You posted some shit about learning lessons from history about tyranny. I’ve asked you what lessons are relevant to this conversation, you came up with Idi Amin. Do you need an explanation about how there’s zero relevance?

There are council elections next year, and much like any by elections, this could indicate how they are likely to fare.

it’s also not just bad policy decisions but their overall conduct. The Starmer freebies. Sue Gray. Rachel Reeves blagging.

It’s impossible to find something positive about them so far.

Not sure how anyone can argue public opinion holds no weight in politics.

This petition, whilst never likely to achieve its call, is going to shine a light on how awful people think this Labour government have been. Far more so than the  rating polls that Starmer is clearly faltering in.

They would have to be even more moronic than I think they are, to just carry on pissing in the face of the majority of voters.

Who are the Zambian women’s and Orlando Pride’s women’s team kit manufacturers and why isn’t there an outcry against them that  Barbra Banda’s shirt isn’t flooding the likes of JD Sports?

she sounds that popular and they’d be able to make a killing over Christmas.

Hands up anyone who hasn’t got anyone on their Christmas list, who would love more than anything else a Barbra Banda Zambian or Orland Pride shirt, complete with name and number? Now she’s got that BBC award and all,,,

Its prejudice gone mad.
