Renton 22024 Posted June 10 Share Posted June 10 Bridget on C4 right now. 3000 new or expanded nurseries, using the private school tax and the cons pledges already made (and reneged on). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He doesn't have a future in mainstream politics beyond playing the spoiler. Which tbf, he does very well, but there's a ceiling on the popularity of any party for which he's a leading figure. Hopefully, he will fuck Reform after he has done for the Tories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 46141 Posted June 11 Share Posted June 11 Sunak's manifesto is DEFINITELY not gonna move the polls btw, so we should hopefully be treated to this at the start of next week, if not before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 46141 Posted June 11 Share Posted June 11 (edited) Apparently there are "frank exchanges" after Brand goes after Sunak on his wealth and unrelatability. Which basically means Sunak being a squeaky little bitch. Should be good. Edited June 11 by Gemmill 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The air of self importance around the likes of Braverman will be delicious when it's taken away. The likes of jenrick are just on the take to see how they and theirs can profit. I can't wait to see the back of them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I think the annoyance of being pretty much an irrelevance will reveal just how unhinged she actually is. Same with Badenoch (who is even worse). Part of the reason they’re going to struggle to make up ground any time soon, unless labour has an absolute nightmare, is because what’s left of the decimated parliamentary party is going to be the loons. They’ll continue their failed culture wars because they don’t have anything else. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Difficult to see what will rise from the ashes of the COnservative party but first we have to reduce it to ashes. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you not noticed Sunak has no spine at all? It is another line Labour has not needed, but the truth is, if by some miracle Sunak was re-elected, he would not be PM by Christmas. Vote Sunak, get *some random nutter*. Just struck me there pondering Braverman and Badenoch as candidates. It's fucking weird the leadership for this far right frankly racist anti-immigration party are both women of colour and second generation immigrants (also Sunak himself). I can't see them lasting too long before the inevitable. Edited June 11 by Renton 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like so many of the current lot, it was almost laughable seeing her in cabinet and talking shite to interviewers until it wasn't. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it’s a power play to get more right wing madness (like leaving the ECHR) into the actual one. Probably just to position themselves as the next leader after the election. I can’t see how they could conceivably launch an alternative one. It would take a ridiculously poor campaign to new depths. As Renton alludes to, these sorts of moves from a party in government, in an actual election campaign, just highlight what a lame duck the pm is. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renton 22024 Posted June 11 Share Posted June 11 The Guardian has published some graphical data on immigration. When you look at this one (legal immigration, >95% of it), you can see the effect of Brexit clearly. Net decline in Europeans now, "expats" forcibly returning (often older people who need the NHS), and an exponential climb in non-Europeans, mainly from India and Nigeria iirc. I'm gald all Brexiters are getting exactly what they wanted. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With FoM, you had young people from the EU filling gaps in employment and returning home after a few years or on a seasonal basis. Reciprocated with our kids of course. Now we have entire families arriving from different continents on visas, and they are not returning. And of course, lets face it, they are the wrong colour and creed for the average Brexiter. But few will admit they are wrong even now. It's been an utter disaster and nobody can even talk about it now. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renton 22024 Posted June 11 Share Posted June 11 So the tories are cutting NI again, funded by cutting disability and sickness benefits, at a time they have ruined the NHS. Standard. Deep breaths. Just over 3 weeks to go until they are gone. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 46141 Posted June 11 Share Posted June 11 Thick Ric at it again. Posting a letter from the Cabinet Secretary claiming it proves the £2k thing when actually it doesn't. I know he'll just be hoping that normal people won't bother reading it, but the incompetence and dishonesty of these people is wild. Not to mention their contempt for voters. This bloke shouldn't even be a leading figure in a post-election Tory party with sub 150 seats, never mind one with a decent majority. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex 35650 Posted June 11 Share Posted June 11 Spads aren’t civil servants. As a minister you wouldn’t want them to be because they’re basically consultants who you don’t want to be impartial. Long story, short: The letter proves the exact opposite of what he says / thinks it does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
