UK Politics Thread (Part 4)

I find him creepy and devious, he reminds of the character ‘child snatcher’ in the Chitty Bang Bang film.

The way he back tracked on his views on Trump is so hypocritical and his association with Epstein is rather sinister. I wouldn’t trust him with my budgie, let alone in a political post.

I was sad to hear this news. This would have been huge boost for jobs in pharmaceutical research in the area.

Cracking stuff from Andrew Rawnsley:

How long before this idiotic plan is put on the back burner, I wonder?

Absolutely absinine. I don’t get the thinking behind this at all.

EDIT: I still see absolutely no economic case for this at all, and that’s even without weighing it against the environmental impact and the potential costs of that.

And it’s things like these that boggle my mind whenever her critics attack her with lies such as that sideshow distraction above about her economic credentials. If you want a reason to distrust her competence with economics, surely this is your attack line?

I don’t live far from Heathrow and it is detrimental to the environment as well as local people. I am lucky that i don’t live under the flight path. My friend lives in Hounslow which is under the flight path and when you sit in her house, the aircraft noise is so loud and sometimes you feel the vibrations, you can’t hear anything. Her house is triple-glazed.

The roads to heathrow, especially A4 and Bath Road are always congested on a daily basis.

We don’t need a 3rd runway. There are other aiports around the country who would benefit more.

I sympathise with those in Hounslow but the flight path goes out as far as Reading. The constant buzz of aircraft ran out that far.

I just don’t get this idea. Yes the UK needs growth desperately but I cant help but think they’re over focussing on it at the detriment of everything else.

I cant shake the feeling we are sleepwalking into real trouble. Perhaps we have been for decades.

I don’t think that’s out of the ordinary in that going for some unpopular policies at the outset. But they’re kind doing some good stuff but all too quietly while theres a whole load of wtf things and not really setting any kind of plan either.

Theres very little you can point at and say “yes, that’s a start”

It’s not Labour’s decline you should be worried about. It’s Reform’s climb.

Yes absolutely. The tories are dead. Badenoch is hopeless, patheticly poor.

Reform will be awful.

I’m really not sure Reform is anything more than an emotional spasm.

He is an empty grifter. I just don’t think when push comes to shove the numbers will be there, especially if Trump screws the pooch.

The frog-faced cunt has gone all in on the orange-faced cunt.

Shades of me reassuring everyone in January 2016 that the Iowa caucuses would demonstrate Trump was nothing more than a distraction

State of the cunts we got rid of, the cunts we have now, and the cunts gaining momentum, I’ve come to the conclusion we’re basically fucked

Yes. It’s all about damage limitation now. Slowing the decline so our kids can have some quality of life in this fucking backward, failed shithole of a country. Their kids wont be so lucky.
And of course people will still post GIF’s like the one above under the delusion one party or another is going to magically turn things around. Fucking laughable.

First step is to fix the leaks in the boat. Second step is to bail the water out. Only then can you actually set a new direction. I don’t think most Britons really understand how dire the finances of the country are.
