Political Thread in memory of David Reid. (R.I.P.)

[The Bedlington Terrier]

She sounded like just another fully paid up member of the Loony Left to me. Anyone who thinks this indicates some sort of 'Green' or Lefty revival needs to go and get their bumps felt, she was simply piggy-backing on the shipped in Muzzy vote. In any straight fight between Reform and the eco-loons, the loons would be toast, as they'll find out at the next GE.

I'm not convinced the majority of the eligible UK voting population are Gammons mon ami.

Nor am I convinced the Greens could form a credible government within the next 10 years.

Farage's motley collection of political has beens who never weres can't even sort out local councils they have won never mind form a credible government.

Labour have conclusively proved the electorate are sick to the back teeth of them - already.

As for your former heartthrobs they have gone down like a Junkers hit by a Spitfire's twin canon. Crash & burn politics - no thanks!

Where the pfhuck we go from here is anybody's guess.

Where do we go from here? I really don’t know BT but I don’t think many politicians have a grasp of the problems either. We have as PM a totally ineffective leader who is scorned at home and laughed at abroad. Everywhere you look there are problems. Rents are over 1,000 pounds a month in many areas now and people cannot afford housing. Meanwhile 40,000 plus benefit claimants are arriving annually by small boat and expecting to be housed and fed and whatever else at our expense. SERCO are buying up properties wherever they can to house them and this is diminishing the housing stock. I don’t see any plan to provide the housing, hospitals, schools and jobs to meet future needs. All the plans I see her here in Bury are for housing to be built over greenbelt. Farage and Reform carry the same health warnings as any other group of politicians but they do see that we cannot go on with unrestricted migration without disastrous consequences. Many will not agree but if so I cordially invite them to tell us all how they are planning to deal with the influx and an economy where the welfare bill is spiralling out of control.

We go, eventually, with a Farage led Reform government mon ami. Whether they will prove capable of altering the catastrophic direction of travel this country is taking, who knows. The only certainty is that they cannot be any worse than the last Labour and Tory governments.

If May’s elections are as disastrous for Labour as everyone (even Nostradamus’s cat) is predicting then Sir Starmer (I’ll fight on tis but a scratch) may be forced to resign. It would not surprise me then if (in the continuing absence of the King of the North) Angela Rayner and Rebecca Long Bailey were to stand in a Leadership challenge. That should please you BT.

I'm heading off to Fuerteventura at 9.50 in the morning for four weeks and I no longer give a pfhuck Sir Outwood.

Last word from me four 4 weeks, the eminently corrupt FIFA boss, Gianni Infantino, needs to explain exactly why he gave the Orange Buffoon a made-up peace prize.

He already got one.

Netanyahu should have got it

Lucky break for BT as Fuerteventura is not in the Middle East so hopefully he got his flight.

I am off to India on Tuesday. Flight path was through Iran, think we will be re-routed over Afghanistan and Pakistan now.

Could be tricky because Pakistan has recently been launching air strikes on Kabul in retaliation for suicide bombings.

The flight path also goes over Ukraine and Southern Russia

I presume they're from Hezbollah Balan, soon sort them out. Any road you're safer than in Iran, just keep that tin hat handy.

Cyprus is ripping about the way the UK government have handled the situation, leaving them undefended. We even asked Spain to send a frigate because Starmer couldn't be arsed getting his arse into gear. By the time 2TK changed his mind (once again) the RN were a 7 day sail away, and even now haven't arrived to put our shield into place.

The countries reputation is in tatters and we are the laughing stock of the world. The country is a disgrace ran by a tin pot socialist government who can't run a bath. Unemployment on the rise, with the young suffering the most in low paid jobs.
We have uncontrolled immigration and a crazy net zero agenda that is destroying our industries and businesses with the highest energy costs in the world.

We have 9 million people claiming benefits, with a welfare system that doesn't encourage work and is far to generous.


The country is in a bloody mess
