The sad thing is they probably didnt need to pay him anything to start banging on about Brexit again. Its been his life work.

Come off it. Thats just a roundabout, disingenuous way of opposing it. Pure nimbyism

Maybe they should just not do illegal stuff?

Totally agree. - in fact just dont bother with subsidies at all and maybe look at other ways of lowering energy costs. It all has to be paid for eventually through taxation and the crisis will pass. No one remembers the help in the long term - its a wasteful use of precious resources

I do know what Neoliberalism and its not what Trump is. He is the opposite of a freetrading globalist. He is kleptocratic nationalist/fascist strongman.

Trump is no neo-liberal or indeed any kind of liberal. He is a kleptocratic, nationalist, warmongering ego-maniac "strongman"

So much more agreeable

I may have missed it, but I haven't seen Ukraine giving unequivocal support to Israel? Providing intercepting drones to UAE is not that. Why is Europe being dragged into what Israel does? Cant say Ive seen much European support for what Israel has been upto in Gaza? Quite the opposite recently

Iran has been supplying Russia with Drones and other weapons that have been killing Ukrainians for 4 years

Im unsure on this. Trees we have had where the Ivy is really full on dont produce anything like as many leaves and seem to be way more likely to be the ones that blow over in a storm

You did that dickhead - all on you De Pfeffel

Be interesting to see. There is some wild stuff currently.

Their economic programme is based on the financial equivalent of Homeopathy - "Modern Monetary Theory". Total snake oil stuff.

Absolutely - its a city of Manchester borough, not a northern town as it keeps being portrayed

Epstein died 5 years before Kier Starmers Government? Maybe you should rewrite the headline to say Prince Andrew's arrest puts the spotlight onto Donald Trump, who very much is in the Epstein files?

95% of Reform acolytes who live as tax exile immigrants dont soeak the native language of the country they live in

What that a cheap drone can blow up a cumbersome slow,armoured vehicle? Or a unit sat in a bunker playing tge equivalent of video games can destroy an invading armed unit? Im afraid it certainly does sir.

Like Isabel Oakeshott complaining about too immigrants, Muslims, sharia law in London from her immigrant enclave in Dubai. How's the Arabic lessons coming along Isabel?

Pretty sure it shows a lot and shows how much money is squandered on items irrelevant to modern warfare like certain ships, tanks and probably the wrong type of military personnel

"Multiculturalism in Dubai has fsiled"

And where is it the immigrant Jim Ratcliffe lives? Isn't he overrunning Monaco?

Masterful summary!

I actually think some of the horrible stuff they have been doing on immigration has been to lay the groundwork for this. Neutralise the immigration issue in the first half of the parliament, so that when Freedom of Movement comes back round it isn't a killer issue for rejoining.

No I know you didnt mean that. My comment above was just on where things are today. I dont agree that he is bad at being a PM, although opinion polls say otherwise. I think he is a decent technocratic PM and yes the strategy of trying to appeal outside of the base really has been counterproductive.

Its ludicrous isn't it? The Mail and Telegraph I bet cant believe they have managed to get things to this point in just 18 months. The Taylor Swift thing - I mean was it not just normal for a Government representative to be at a major event? It happens the world over.

I totally get the immigration argument. I get the winter fuel allowance mess. But really has it been as bad as this apocalyptic cliff face thats presented? Its hysterical.

Remember the weeks of outrage about Taylor Swift? Barely mention of Reform being paid by the Russian Government to make pro Russian speeches in the European Parliament. Not a chance Nathan Gill was the only one.

His links to Russia. Wasn't he always on Russia Today at one point?

Why a decade away? Rejoining the Single Market, if there was willing in this country would probably only take a couple of years? And its you who is cherry picking - Labour has done much more realignment, than divergence and is continuing down the path of realignment on a number of fronts.
