    Admin Note

    Now that we know there is to be an election in 43 days some might think there’ll be a separate thread for the election . But I say -why bother ? It’s just blues being replaced by the reds – the BBC will be happy .

      You offer Hobson’s choice, It could be the light blues, because The Reform party will announce a press conference tomorrow !
      Please keep the same thread.

        Rishi to stop 1 boat just before the election! SUCCESS!
        Starmer to say a cervix belongs to women – SUCCESS!

    Taffman – yes I’m not doing separate threads any more . Parliament stops on Friday . Thursday is the last day for legislation – this country really could do without the blues or the reds for a while . Let’s hope Reform is sufficiently organised to help destroy the blue party …..

    Having watched PMQs and the blue MP returning with no hands or feet after sepsis – I wonder if he can seriously campaign / represent his constituency …?

    And it seems a lot of blue MPs are shocked by the announcement – but at least after the 4th of July they can have a long summer holiday before signing on as unemployed ….

    So, drumroll, there’s going to be an election in July. I can hardly contain myself…

    I mean, is it really that important? Rishi or Kier…who gives a fxxx? I don’t often agree with George Galloway, but he’s right; they’re two cheeks of the same arse.

    Fourteen years of “Conservative” government…and we’ve got the highest levels of immigration our country has ever seen. It’s the 80th anniversary of D Day on June 6th. Somehow, all those years ago, we managed to stop the mighty Luftwaffe, now we can’t stop a bunch of Africans floating across in inflatable dinghies.

    They imposed damaging lockdowns, we have gutless and partisan police. The BBC are still trundling along unhindered, despite endless sabre rattling from Number 10.
    Let’s be honest, the government have been absolutely appalling. FFS, even Blair wasn’t this bad.

    Okay, I agree, Starmer and his hideous entourage might be even worse, but…

    I’m still not voting Conservative.

      Galloway has a talent other politicians don’t appear to have, and that is he is able to identify what and where problems are and talk about them. The problem comes with his solutions which are invariably ‘Socialist with a twist of Islam’

      As for the Tories, not only do we have high immigration, we have a totally woke party pushing far left agendas especially on kids, an economy which is more wrecked than people realise, record levels of taxation and high inflation.

      It will be amusing watching Stamers loons attempt to deal with the crises which await them concerning the economy, some of which they have already identified.

      My own feeling is that Red Labour is going to be pretty much the same as Blue Labour has been.

      Oh to add, except that the BBC will be fully backing everything they do and seeking a small number of Tory MPs still extant who they will roll out perpetually as there will be so few to give interviews !

      I’m out of the country ( if there still is one ) at the election so I don’t know if I will get a postal vote in time . I will ask for 10 .
      The current MP who seemed more interested in Chinese Muslims than me – will lose his seat and become Lord Duncan Smith of Hedge Funds ….
      But when voting the question must be ‘has the current regime done anything for me ? ‘ answer No – nothing . Will the reds do anything for me ? No – so I will vote for something else or not at all –
      Maybe events will colour the outcome …

      We can set up a British Refugees Council, and take over the place, and hope that everyone else here joins us for endless Labour-funded shenanigans, fun and laughter, and I sincerely hope that Deborah, Lucy, Thoughtful, Mrs Kitty and Brissles will be able to come along too!

    The public sector Unions will be stridently demanding more pay and an easier life for their members. Smarmer will have to comply, our taxes will increase to pay.

    There will be further Employment Law which will cost us all more.

    Stand by for Council Tax revaluation and extra banding. Councils need money to burn

    More alignment with Europe. There’s a good chance that Smarmer will take us back into the EU.

    BBC WEB-SITE Watch #1 – Wot, deflation is here already?

    I don’t think so, BBC. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c0xxwz00nz9o . When you have had inflation in food or the price of any good, you require an equivalent period of deflation* at the same rate, to take prices back to where they were. Take the BBC’s Telly Tax as an example.

    * The thought of deflation tends to give the MSM and some economists pause, so I prefer the term ‘negative inflation’.

    Taffman – the extract of Farage on GBnews is on YouTube . Just watched it . Farage said that he will think overnight whether he will engage directly in politics . Obviously a lot of comments are begging him to do so .

    Farage also took the view that the sunak decision was panicked today – and with the spectacle of green crap Dave having to fly back from Eastern Europe after having been there 2 hours perhaps supports it .

    More generally – with Ukraine maybe heading into a decisive outcome during the next couple of months and Islamic Hamas now being supported by Spain Eire and Norway – it’s a hell of a time to do campaigning ….

    This evening was the final of MasterChef…and I had a quick gander.

    There were three finalists. A middle-aged white woman. A rather podgy middle-age white chap (well, he had no chance!)…and a youngish Asian lad. I didn’t need to taste any of the grub or possess the clairvoyant skills of Mystic Meg to pick the winner. Yep, I’m afraid so…

    You would think that even “minorities” might find this constant BBC patronising of them to be getting just a tad embarrassing. Maybe just a little humiliating. I mean, it’s endless.

    I’ve no doubt that this young lad will soon have his own cookery show and after a couple of seasons he’ll be lecturing us about the necessity for more diversity on TV.

      Sour? For asking you to adhere to the same rules you ask me to?

      I thought it was only about one subject on which we disagree, but you don’t seem so keen on diversity of opinion and freedom of speech sometimes Fed.

      We have a disagreement over one issue of the day but rather than accept there is a difference of opinion you have resorted to name calling and finger pointing in a way I see on the Left wing forums.

      I’m not sour, nor bitter, and I’m not a troll, or an anti semite all names which you have called me simply because I expressed an opinion different to the one you hold.

      You might want to take some time to think about the way you have reacted to this because it certainly doesn’t sit well with a freedom of speech or that of expression.

                OK here is another thing of a heads up about what we are not being told about the world which is going on unreported largely.

                Israel / Hamas.

                I was previously unaware that the Hamas attack was not some kind of spontaneous unprovoked action, but came as a result of an incursion by the Israeli’s into the Al Aqsa Mosque the third most holy site in Islam.

                I was also unaware that several EU countries including Spain and France have been very quiet about the current conflict because of the large violent Muslim populations they have stupidly allowed to grow like a cancer in their countries.

                The conflict has been leveraged by the BRICS group into pretty much removing the Wests influence and presence in the Middle East and they have unified the Arabs against the West.

                In this situation the Iranians no longer need to close the Straits of Hormuz as that will affect their trade with BRICS, so they have instead moved with the Houthi’s to close the Bab Al-Mandab Strait at the entrance to the Red Sea which will affect the West.

                In this instance American incompetence under Biden and the CIA has led to this disastrous outcome, alongside a blind support for Netanyahu’s murderous campaign which if handled differently might have led to a different outcome.

                Here’s my reply idiot and if the website doesn’t include the whole link you can find it by looking back at your post according to the date.
                You are a despicable person for many things you have written in the past, and no doubt will continue to be – it’s in your genes.

    And in a final act of Hari Kari, the useless Tories eschew the prospect of gaining from a few months of better economic news and go for a July election.
    Do they know something we don’t or are they even more incompetent than we thought? Does Paula Vennells have something on them? Who’d have thought her long-anticipated car crash today would be bounced off the front pages?

    Vennels

    I’ve written about her day 1 testimony earlier today but I’m still vexed by it . I listened to it all . She is meant to be a vicar – yet she just cannot admit her guilt and take her punishment . The lies were breath taking – she claimed she had no idea the post office had investigators and prosecutors and prosecutions for 2 years as CEO – 2010 – 2012 and 5 years before then . Even I’d heard of POID through my law studies ( post office investigation division ) yet she claimed no idea ….

    As I listened I wondere how much she was being paid … they always justify the big bucks by saying they need to attract the talent – yet this character was woeful …

    And there’s another 2 days of it – with day 3 fixed for barristers working for sub postmasters .

    Maybe the election will distract as much as infected blood is now out of thoughts …

        She’ll cry and squeal, the snivil serpents who knew about all this will back her up, and anyone with a spine left in gummint, (are there any – nope), will wash their hands of the whole shitshow, as there’s an election on the way.

        I’m beginning to hate – even more – all these publicly-funded imbeciles, these days. They are utterly useless at their non-jobs, and the elite bunch of neer’do-wells keep letting them get away with it.

        When Sucker Strummer gets into Downing Street in July, we can all believe that things will get worse.

    Israeli hostage’s family hope kidnap video reminds world of need for deal
    https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cg33j53qe31o

    Another disgusting agenda-based propaganda piece from the BBC. I can say with confidence that this one is so full of specific BBC wording, it has been grotesquely twisted by these far-left monsters to protect the terrorists.

    First – and we get this slipped into the article:
    ‘Naama was shown with blood around the crotch of her trousers, with her hands tied and ankles cut.’
    Then it moves straight on. But wait a moment BBC. What does ‘ankles cut’ mean ?. Does it mean they actually cut her tendons so she could not walk ?. That’s absolutely horrific – yet you pass it off like she cut her finger. It’s about as cruel and barbaric as you can get by these terrorist scum and you ignore it.

    ‘Naama’s brother, Amit, is on a visit to London to campaign for his sister’s release.’ said:
    ‘“We feel like she’s handling the situation like the true superhero she is, like a hero fighting for her life.”’

    What utter, utter rubbish from this man. She can’t fight at all. Shes a hostage being given no human rights whatsoever.

    ‘“We realise that there is… there is a chance, maybe even a good chance, that Naama and other girls and men are being harassed.’
    Harassed Amit ?. She is more likely being raped and abused and has probably died in the most atrocious of conditions after weeks of living in terror.

    I don’t believe for one minute he used the word ‘harassed’. It simply does not fit. I am 100% certain the BBC have used it themselves to make it seem like a minor inconvenicence.

    I’m now quite certain the BBC have no interest in saving any of these hostages. They are using them to try and force a ceasefire for the terrorists. This article sickened me as I read it. This must be the lowest I’ve seen these BBC scum stoop.

    There is no other alternative : the terrorist scum must be destroyed like the vermin they are.

    With reports like this, it’s clear the BBC are now the enemy of civilisation. Not it’s protector.

    Here’s what wrote it. The BBC’s ‘rising star’:
    me_new2_400x400.jpg

    Here’s what her father and mother said:
    ‘Her father, Yoni Levy, has been particularly vocal in his criticism regarding the silence of organizations like the Red Cross and the UN, which have yet to intervene on her behalf. As for her mother, Ayelet Levy Shachar, on International Women’s Day in 2024, she spoke at a gala in Tel Aviv, reminding the world of her daughter’s plight and condemning the lack of acknowledgment from women’s groups regarding the sexual violence inflicted during the attacks.’

    Funny how the BBC clone didn’t include that which has much more of a ring of truth than her brother who is worried she is being ‘harassed’.

      Shame on you BBC for protecting these people. The chances of Hamas letting this girl live to tell the tale are remote.

      But of course it’s only about stopping Israel and the hostages are just tools to help do it.

      Once you understand the BBC ethics behind what they do, you realise what loathsome swamp creatures they are.

    Why has Sunak called an election now when the latest poll is Labour 45%, Tories 23% ?. It looks like deliberate suicide to me.

    Is it so they can’t replace him and he ends his career without the stigma ?.

    Is it so things don’t get even worse and Reform pick up seats in the House ?. Maybe even under pressure from his globalist peers ?.

    It makes no sense to me – but politics never does. It’s all lies and points scoring. They are like children.

          Fed,
          What odds will you give for Sunak leaving the country within 6 months ?.
          The BBC plan worked perfectly. They wanted the unelectable, weak globalist Sunak from the start knowing he would not rock the boat but would lose the next election.

          It took them a couple of goes using the power of daily ‘Live Feed’s to force those PMs and MPs who might cause problems to resign, especially when Sunak was roundly rejected when he had competition – so thay had to engineer his standing unopposed.

          But it worked beautifully. They (in cahoots with OFCOM) judged that nobody dare confront them and it worked. Now they are running rampant with things like Gaza and Trump. No doubt the red-line will be pushed even further out for this election.

          This is the path to a fascist state where counter-opinions are not allowed. We are halfway there. Fortunately I think Starmer is so pathetic, he doesn’t have what it takes to finish the job before the country starts to collapse.

    The Rishi lackey loyalist Daily Express frontpage is remarkable only for the fact that this vaguely right-leaning organ manages not to refer to the obvious fact Sunak has revealed himself to a very very wet Tory.

    Let’s hope that suit doesn’t shrink any more – it’s already too short in the leg and tight enough as it is

    Other supposedly vaguely marginally right-of-centre titles do report the dodgy outlook as the wet Tory metaphore became embarrasingly manifest outside No 10 yesterday – long gone are our traditional prime ministerial announcements of consequence made initially to the Commons.

    Sunak gamble on snap poll… things can only get wetter (Telegraph)

    Rishi was of course no more than a seat-warmer (my favourite epithet) for internationalist Blairite protégé Sir Keir – but he’s left Starmer quite a wet patch to sit his big arse on

    Starmer bromancer, our formerly serious Times, does the political gymnastics having us reimagine the two wings of our ruling Uniparty reversed thusly: …the Labour leader promised “a politics that treads more lightly on people’s lives” – and if you believe that I’ve got a pallet of nuclear bunker baked beans nearing their use-by date to sell you

    Rain-soaked Sunak’s address was almost drowned out by the New Labour anthem, D:Ream’s Things Can Only Get Better, blasted out by the anti-Brexit campaigner Steve Bray (Guardian)

    The fact that chap isn’t banged up in jail yet or hounded by the cops from pillar to post just like Mr T Robinson tells us a quite a story in itself.

    Tax cut setback meant things could only get worse for PM Adam Boulton… The new Project Fear – and why Tory MPs worry it won’t work Katy Balls… Drowned and out?

    The anti-Brexit globalist FT can’t resist reference to the rain and a forecast of the electorial dousing about to befall the blue rosette wing of our Uniparty aka the Tories – but perhaps the usually long-winded headline writers over there at the pink paper do afterall best sum this up: Things can only get wetter Premier has calculated there is little to hang on for

    TOADY Watch #1 – Nick Robinson forgets the first rule of presenting

    The former Political Editor of the BBC, Nick Robinson, broke the first rule of presenting in his interview with the PM, Rishi Sunak and consistently talked over and interrupted his guest. We did learn that Nick betrayed his lack of political and economic knowledge and broadcasting during the interview.

    Firstly, the Conservatives were in a Coalition Government from 2010 to 2015; they have only been in power for nine years. Nick should know as a former Political Editor, when you are in a coalition, the other Party in that coalition may dictate policy such as on energy and the Post Office. Secondly, the PM claimed inflation was under control. It is not. It is still above the BoE’s target 2% figure. And as I explained in a post yesterday, inflation remains in the economy forever unless you have a matching period of negative inflation (deflation) for the same amount of inflation.

    Nick Robinson should know all of that but was only interested in interrupting and talking over his interviewee. I suspect that Keir Starmer, should he be granted a TOADY interview will have a much easier time thanks to the inherent BBC bias.
