There is a thread elsewhere to have a go at the SNP so head over there and fill your boots. Meanwhile, sensible posters can use this thread to celebrate the downfall of a racist/sexist arsehole. Amazing how I can get slaughtered by Scot and Brit Nats for just wing aware that both sides are in it for themselves rather than the country. I suppose that is a risk you take when you try to look at it from a neutral angle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Costanza Posted July 7, 2022 Share Posted July 7, 2022 LMAO at talk of Ben Wallace being a good leader. I expect a bit more from a PM than just simply not being a lying incompetent f**kwit who likes a drink. He will be governing on the Tory manifesto which is wholly inadequate for the issues in the country right now. The energy crisis, cost of living, NHS backlogs, housing shortages. Brexit costs, moves to more Green technology are not going to be solved by Tory neoliberalism. Social democracy and large state intervention is needed so Ben Wallace ain't your man.

Braverman had called for Boris Johnson to quit after a series of resignations in the past 48 hours. She said although she did not support Johnson she would not quit her role in government. Who She?

Malinga the Swinga Posted July 7, 2022 Share Posted July 7, 2022 Quite funny to read posts from the same ten or so posters, each taking a turn to post childish comment and then the rest pile on. Wallace done more for this country in service than any of them, will easily deal with Blackford at Westminster and that's what frightens them. Now he may or may not become PM, there's a long way to go before that's decided, but the false bravado is very telling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah nate we've just had 3 years of a guy not up to the job and they can't even get rid of him properly. The country is on its knees and our economy is tanking. Sterling is heading South which impacts all our costs and drives inflation. There's also no route out because we imposed sanctions on ourselves. But Blackford wibble something wibble.

Shooter McGavin Posted July 7, 2022 Share Posted July 7, 2022 The whole Tory party is cancerous at this stage, they’re too far gone to ever be taken seriously or achieve anything. Too many sociopaths who couldn’t give a flying **** about their actions, and the consequences they have. They’ve completely strayed from actual politics, to become a social club frequented by people who relentlessly abuse others at will. Complete clear out is needed, and spare me the “there’s no opposition” bulls***. That’s a myth peddled by the lazy, docile gimps who are too thick to understand that they’re being taken for mugs as much the rest of us.
