The Politics Thread

After listening to the Truss speech, what the **** are Anti Growth Campaigners, if it means stopping Fracking in my back garden then count me in

 

It's a load of bollox.

How does cutting taxes which will impact on public services which are already fcked, and benefits to those who desperately need it in a cost of living crisis, equate to "it's not our money it's your money and how we spend it is important"

The amount you tax people has fck all to do with how you spend it. How the fck do these cretins swallow this ****e?

 

She must mean the Tories, as austerity cripples growth, especially in a period of low inflation.
12 years of destroying the country for their mates. Scum.

 

What's true is that, on the same day, we had Cruella Braverman say it was her "dream" to send her first flight of migrants to Rwanda, and we had Rachel Reeves saying she should send them sooner

So, if you happen to believe that the Rwanda scheme is either immoral or illegal (or, what it actually is, both), the fact there's no middle ground between the Tories and Labour is an especially bad look - while also being perfectly on-brand for Reeves, given she has history of saying Labour isn't for the disabled or people on benefits, which begs the obvious question of who she believes the party is for

 

The benefits of the British Empire? They brought military to other countries ffs

 

In my head, I was hearing TRB's 'Power in the Darkness'...


"Today, institutions fundamental to the British system of Government are under attack
the public schools, the house of Lords, the Church of England, the holy institution of Marriage, even our magnificent police force are no longer safe from those who would undermine our society, and it's about time we said 'enough is enough' and saw a return to the traditional British values of discipline, obedience, morality and freedom.

What we want is
Freedom from the reds and the blacks and the criminals
Prostitutes, pansies and punks
Football hooligans, juvenile delinquents
Lesbians and left wing scum
Freedom from the niggers and the Pakis and the unions
Freedom from the Gipsies and the Jews
Freedom from left-wing layabouts and liberals
Freedom from the likes of you"

 

On the subject of Cruella...

Lied on her CV, barred from practising law in the US, exactly who you want to serve as Attorney General and Home Secretary

 

Corrupt governments only exist in other countries.
It’s just not British.
Except it is.
Just like Empire was brutal and evil, yet it’s still celebrated.
Land of hope and glory.
My f***ing arse

 

She makes Priti Patel look good.
They claim their government is inclusive and diverse. But they’re all right wing nasties irrespective of race, colour or creed. They all speak with the same voice of old white, male, privileged, superior Britain of the past.

 

It's all by design, as Nick Timothy's rant a few weeks back about how you can't accuse Tories of being racist because Rishi Sunak was top of the leadership ballot so therefore...

 

On the subject of fuel....OPEC have just handed Russia a boost!

 

Oh this'll go down well...

 

50p Lee assaulting the public again

 

What possible reason would there be to do this?

 

Over 330,000 deaths have been linked to austerity.
If another country inflicted those losses on us, then we'd nuke them.
