Those they’ll be expelling from their countries will need a home somewhere 😉 gifting £50 million to Syria how does he know the proscribed terrorists in gov won’t put it to use against UK along with many other countries 🫤

Look, Assad has at least 50m tied-up in UK properties, I would assume that the 50m given to Syria would come out of that. I would ASSUME that as a sensible person, but I'm still not convinced Labour are sensible.

It seems odd they’re first to donate but in the same breath say we need to see how things pan out 🤷🏼‍♀️

I wish the sixth formers in government now would stick to their manifesto items, i.e. fix the NHS, crime & policing etc, do a good job on those and THEN start introducing new stuff to duck about with like councils once they've done all the original stuff.

But foreign policy is SEXY! Look at ME! Jet setting around the world, Oooh, it's sooo exciting! Honestly, let's bleeping fix the mess the Tories left behind before we start gallivanting around the globe for photo ops. :rolleyes:

A good minister should be like a good referee in a football match: the less you notice them the better the game is. This current crop of ministers seem to be under the impression that the more they are on television the more we will like them or buy into their ideas. The truth couldn't be further from the truth. If I see Liz Kendall or Wes Streeting once more I'll throw something at the TV.

I wouldn't mind so much seeing Kier on the world stage but he's so bleeping cringe. It's embarassing. I just know his 'advisors' tell him what to wear and how the 'optics' will look. Should I wear a tie? Should I have my shirt collar open or buttoned? Should I wear a jacket? Should I wear jeans? He just looks so bleeping awkward and uncomfortable all the time. Trying too hard to dress like a cool dad. Kier has zero charisma and zero style. Personally I think he should lean into that* because at the moment he looks like a mannequin in the window of Burtons (if it still existed). Nothing seems to fit him, everything he wears either seems too tight or too short. The clothes wear him, he doesn't wear the clothes.

*cable knit jumper (knitted by my mum), lot's of corduroy, tweed, leather patches on elbows, duffle coat. Okay I admit, that's my style but I think Keir would benefit. 😬

Michael Foot often looked as though he'd got his clothes off a dead woman he'd found in a skip, but he was an excellent politician.

Sadly, we have gone down the American route of putting style over substance (not that any of this current bunch have got anything remotely approaching style). People with a real interest in serving the country and improving life for people living in it are ignored in favour of the bright shiny loudmouths.

Labour didn't win the election - the Tories lost it. We don't seem to have any valid political parties any more. It's bliddy terrifying.

So scary
 
Farage is acting like a proper Nazi now by starting unfounded rumours like that. It’s not even true, but the dumb fucks who hang off his every word will believe anything he says. He could tell them the sky is green and the world is flat and they’d believe it. That these people walk amongst us is terrifying.

What rumours? What's the twit saying now?

No doubt he's taken a page out of the Trump/Bannon book, ie: Flood the zone. Just talk tit and lie. It just takes too much time to fact check these people if they constantly lie and the lies if repeated enough eventually become truth. As you say, it's scary.

I like to think the British public aren't as gullible as Americans. But it's hard to tell. Especially when social media algorithms and corporate media are brainwashing.

That Labour ( who just won the General Election and have a majority of over 150 ) are so terrified of Farage and his merry band of racists, woman beaters and deranged millionaires ( that’s 5 whole MPs ) that they are calling off the local elections and Britain is now a Communist country. Eh, makes a change from Sharia law I suppose.

I'm so ashamed that my MP is Reform. I'm not sure what I can do to push back. Any ideas?
