Utter genius on Would I lie to you Its a bit ridiculous but I'm genuinely upset at the thought of him being unwell

I've seen him with Vic Reeves a couple of times which was great, but I saw the Athletic mince live show just before lockdown, and I genuinely thought I was going to die I was laughing so much. The bloke is a genius

I'm no economist but this doesn't sound optimal

Free and fair elections?Free is dubious, there are plenty (mainly poor and students) disenfranchised. Fair - nope

Exactly Too thick to realise the ideological shit they are being fed isn't bollocks, so happily shafting the country by inflicting this crap on the rest of us While the real ptb, the cunts who fund these think tanks, whose identities are completely hidden hoover up the proceeds. It fucking stinks

The legacy press certainly doesn't have the impact it used, but it still creates a subliminal drumbeat for the morons to march to. Added to which the press also has also lost the ability to hold people to account, and tell truth to power as the phrase goes, it is almost totally pure propaganda now. More importantly the BBC has completely relinquished its role to inform, the both sidesism that brought us Brexit and climate denial, and made major figures out of Farage Johnson and ReesMogg continues unabated. Just heard the news headlines on Radio 5 and they played a minute long clip of govt minister but quoted 10 words from Starmer. Most people listening would give the government side credence and just hear tac cuts. No mention of the pound or the cost of borrowing It's a long way from in the bag amongst the actual people whose vote matters

I hope you are right but I still think you underestimate quite how toxic Labour still are in the South. In the same way as I would never vote Tory there are probably at least 30% of the country who always will Also never underestimate the extent to which people are idiots, and there are none quite so stupid as a floating voter. Proves my point, these are the people who have a vote

For once CT has a point. Just look at the way this already being spun as a gamble but worth a try. Unless Labour manage to craft their own narrative I fear a short lived bounce next spring followed by a snap election

For all (including me) hoping for Trumps impending financial ruin, this is sobering reading Donald Trump’s Great Escape: How The Former President Solved His Debt Crisis https://www.forbes.com/sites/danalexander/2022/07/29/donald-trumps-great-escape-how-the-former-president-solved-his-debt-crisis/?sh=52642ec73970

That man is loving life, and I salute him

Peados to the left of me, peados to the right Here I am

So you are saying you are a fan

Sadly I think this is wishful thinking. He has managed to get himself into position as King of the grifters Some PAC or another will pay the fine after it gets negotiated down to 1.5m and he has his army if rubes he can fundraise off in response to the charges. He will probably end up better off financially

Zoe Williams isn't exactly a militant leftist but she nails what's wrong with Starmer here https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2022/sep/22/uk-broken-12-years-starmer-tory-government-labour

Lol

I'd like to see old Donny wriggle out of this one. Still only a civil suit not a criminal one, but hopefully at least it makes him angry/unhappy for a bit

Imagine my horror when I realised the old biddy was too Brookie totty Heather Haversham

Wish I shared your confidence, but I don't Sadly I agree if Starmer does get in we won't be addressing the real problem

Exactly, different world down here. People where I work, most of whom aren't that particularly well paid, all watched the funeral avidly, lapped up the bumlicking, will now revert to there all as bad as each other, Labour just want to give all our money to immigrants, its all thescivers fault. I think the country is done tbh

Any sense of reality is long gone
