its imo more a far right wing thing, but of course when you get that far right you end up near the left;) .. they want to ban protests, load up the military and of course fill their own greasy pockets while they do it at our expense. which is of course what the far left do too; just they dont admit it :ner:
Royals seem pleased:D

I loved that about him too. The press went way overboard over the whole party gate, and bum fondling stuff, really petty. In the end though, he was in it for the ride, just to be top dog. To be honest, he was a phoney, they didn;t crack down on illegal immigrants, the whole Rwanda thing was a sideshow. No matter which party are in power,life doesn't change much for most people. I don't hold much hope for the next incarnation of the Tories, neither would I look forward to a Starmer govt. I wish Jezza was back! (shame about the hangers on though).Quote:

Is this the best the tories have to offer in ministers etc now? scraping a fairly dirty barrel and really showing kids how to behave eh?
New education minister Andrea Jenkyns says she made rude gesture as a response to a "baying mob" who confronted her near Downing Street.
Social media footage showed the MP raising her middle finger, on the day of Boris Johnson's resignation.
Ms Jenkyns said the group were "insulting MPs... as is sadly all too common" as she made her way to hear the prime minister's speech.
She said she should have shown more composure "but is only human".
What's wrong with that? Anyone in a baying mob should get more than the finger. Remember John Prescott smacking one in the mouth? That's what they need.Quote:

They will have been at work, having been told to "get down there and get a reaction". If it were up to me those exiting MPs would each have been given a carton of eggs and been told to give that baying mob what for.Quote:

I could go on but my typing fingers are tiring. Without doubt the most corrupt and venal PM in recent history. Comparisons to Churchill are frankly ridiculous. Churchill had many faults but he would never put his own interests above those of the country the way Johnson has. Even now the refusal to leave office immediately is a sign of his total self centredness!
