Boris at it again and the contest to replace the lying c***

[darlowolf64]

Well that was an absolute bomb scare by both of them, however my particular favourite was Rishi declaring how proud he was that we stood up TO Ukraine...

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

This is sort of normalised now, which is ridiculous in itself. "As far as I am aware" doing more heavy lifting than Geoff Capes.

Of course Occam's Razor is that he got so hammered that he can't remember what he did or didn't say. Professional.

he probably remembered when lebedev played him back the tapes...
"did i really promise that when i was getting sucked off? how remiss of me."

Sunak, who was running a fairly honest campaign based on the economic realities of where we are at, but getting slaughtered is now going to cut taxes left right and centre in an attempt to gain ground.

It won't happen but there needs to be an all party Bill that says a change in leader triggers an immediate GE. It might keep lame duck PMs in office longer, but governments need to be elected on their manifestos - even if a lot of promises aren't kept, rather than a completely new set of policies decided by (in the Tory case) 200k people

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

For it to happen once in a generation you could stomach. It's three times in six years.

If you repeatedly can't pick leaders you can even vaguely trust to see out a term with all the issues that causes then you aren't fit to govern, clearly.

Ha ha ha, fucking hell what the fuck are we doing to ourselves.

Obviously been watching Minority Report and thought it was a documentary.

What the fuck.

Is this the the Truman Show? And we are all Truman?

Johnson being tipped to be nominated as new NATO General Secretary!!

I can't see international partners putting him in such a serious role as he's viewed as a clown overseas. You can't make this shit up. Yesterday he couldn't say whether or not he'd discussed Government business with a KGB agent. You've got to question his "as far as I aware" excuse. If you were certain that you didn't you would say "No Government business was discussed." He's probably shit scared that in his drunken state that someone has a recording of what was said.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Cameron got 'linked' to that previously as did Dr 'not that one' Fox. Was never going to happen, no more than if I said we might sign Ronaldo.

 

[Templeton Peck]

Johnson being tipped to be nominated as new NATO General Secretary!!

Just a game to these people.

 

[Keef]

Might be because he’s done a half reasonable job with Ukraine? Zelensky sitting there with his head in his hands thinking I’ve only just got rid of that twat, and they’re going to send him back, I can’t be doing with hiding behind the settee every time the door goes, just in case it’s him

That is exactly the sort of argument Starmer should be making.

 

[Tredman]

He needs to build a coalition of voters, it’s exactly the type of argument which would prevent that happening.

If allowing Truss to trample over workers rights is a vote winner, then how is Starmer's Labour going to be any different at all to the Tories?

I keep asking this.

She's saying she will make the right to strike illegal for fucks sake, and still you think Starmer shouldn't appose???

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

Corbyn's Labour was always called a weak opposition (despite winning more opposition votes than others in history)

Yet here we are with Starmer repeatedly waving through, or not publicly opposing heinous Tory policies, you do realise there will be thousands/millions of workers who are in unions that will see this lack of opposition from Starmer and turn their back on him?

Also the public are in favour of Lynch and his strikes, why on earth would they not also be in favour of Starmer saying Truss is wrong for doing this??

Has he said he doesn’t ‘appose’ it?

He's said nothing.
