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

[sinkov]

Labour win the Hamilton by-election and Zia Yusuf has resigned as the chair of Reform UK after suggesting it was “dumb” of the party’s newest MP to ask the prime minister if he would ban the burqa.

Yusuf, a donor and businessman, said he was resigning after less than a year in the job because he did not believe working to get a Reform government elected was a good use of his time.

Falling apart at the seams.

They were saying the same thing three months ago when Rupert Lowe took his bat home, didn't make a blind bit of difference. The vast majority of Reformers support Sir Nigel and won't have a clue who Yusuf is and won't give a FF whether he's resigned or not. The vast majority would also support a Burqa ban, so their new MP is far more in touch with the membership than their erstwhile chairman.

You just cannot see a bandwagon without jumping on it can you mon ami, this one will trundle to a halt in the next couple of days, as Reform continues to lead in the polls.

[sinkov]

Incidentally mon ami, I'm still searching in vain for footage of IDF soldiers shooting at the Gaza food queues, but there is some footage out there readily available, it shows Hamas scum shooting at innocent civilians trying to collect their food. The Israelis being in charge of feeding Gaza has really put the Hamas and UN noses out of joint hasn't it. Do they not like it.

What a pfhucking shambles...


The Orange Buffoon says Elon Musk has ‘lost his mind’ and dismisses peace offering
Trump says he’s ‘not particularly’ interested in reconciling with Musk, who reportedly wanted to speak to president

Donald Trump has accused Elon Musk of “losing his mind” as the dramatic breakdown between America’s most powerful person and the world’s richest person escalated into a full-blown feud that could have seismic political and economic consequences.

In a series of phone calls to US media on Friday morning, Trump snapped back at Musk, after the tech mogul and Republican financier launched an extraordinary social media attack on the president the day before, which ended with him accusing Trump of being named in the so-called “Epstein files” – documents related to the convicted child *** offender Jeffrey Epstein.

The row between the two men, who were near constant companions during the latter stages of Trump’s presidential campaign and his first months in the White House, showed no sign of abating, with Musk’s self-proclaimed status as “first buddy” rapidly disappearing in the rear-view mirror.

It's being reported Musk has just had 33 BILLION dollars wiped off his accumulated nett worth - WOW!

I like Elon, but if he wants to go to war with the Donald there's only one winner, and it's not Elon.

Netanyahu freely admits to supplying arms to Bedouin criminal gangs who then rob and loot the aid convoys which are nothing but a honeytrap so that the IDF can mow down unharmed starving Palestinians.

Meanwhile our hopelessly out of his depth and toothless Prime Minister does nothing...

"Keir Starmer has been desperately searching for ways to make it look as if his government is getting tough with Israel.

As public anger grows at images from Gaza of emaciated children, echoing historic images of Jewish children being starved in Nazi concentration camps like Auschwitz, the British prime minister needs to be seen doing something.

There are many ways he could take meaningful action to end the U.K.’s complicity in Israel’s saturation bombing of Gaza and its starvation of the enclave’s population.

He could stop shipping arms to Israel, and stop transferring weapons from the United States and Germany. He could stop supplying Israel with intelligence from British spy planes that have been constantly operating over Gaza from RAF’s Akrotiri base on Cyprus.

He could recognise Palestine. He could prosecute British-Israeli soldiers taking part in the genocide. He could stop hosting suspected Israeli war criminals in London, as Declassified has documented. He could tear up special trade agreements with Israel. The list goes on.

Has he done any of this? No."

Or he could just keep his sneck out and do nothing, as no one in Israel gives a FF what Starmer says, thinks or does. Bit like Clitheroe in fact.

Yusuf is back, storm in a teacup, another Lefty bandwagon ground to a halt.

Israeli Defence Minister, Israel Katz, has told the IDF to prevent the Doom Goblin from reaching Gaza. I'd give them one warning to turn back, which if ignored, would result in the sinking of their ship.

Has he denounced the IDF kidnapping Greta Thunberg and a British registered vessel in the Mediterranean while sailing in International Waters? No!

[sinkov]

I believe the IDF have promised NOT to send the 'kidnapped' Doom Goblin to Gaza providing all the hostages, living and dead, are released within the next 24 hours. A Hamas spokesman has said this offer will very likely be accepted.

[sinkov]

The Doom Goblin and her 'celebrity' chums are also being given a showing of the Hamas atrocities video filmed 'live' on October 7th. What a good idea, even better if they're made to watch it in slow motion, then after they've gobbed their little rings up at least they will know just what they're talking about. Which for Lefty virtue-signallers might even be a first.

Israel simply does not do international law.

"These volunteers are not subject to Israeli jurisdiction and cannot be criminalized for delivering aid or challenging an illegal blockade—their detention is arbitrary, unlawful, and must end immediately."

Israeli forces early Monday boarded the Madleen, a United Kingdom-flagged vessel carrying humanitarian aid, and detained its crew members as they sought to deliver food, children's prosthetics, and other supplies to Gaza's besieged and starving population."

Nor should a boat sailing in International Waters be boarded by IDF pirates.

Where's the outcry?

There is no outcry, ordinary, sensible people don't give a FF what that silly little attention seeker gets up to.

Once again a city burns. Once again we have totally avoidable, preventable, predictable savagery, arson, destruction and violence.

Once again it is funded and supported by Democrat organisations, excused and lied about by Democrat politicians, supported and encouraged by the mainstream media, and created to serve the interests of a totally psychopathic, malign political class. The apparent failures of Gavin Newsome and Karen Bass are not accidents. They aren’t even incompetence. The truth is that California burns because they WANT it to burn. Whether by natural disasters that are rendered far worse through ‘green’ land management and Climate Apocalypse activists and DEI hires and turning off water supplies, or whether by savage immigrant hordes taught to expect complete Democrat backing when they loot and burn and go on barbarian rampages, none of this is accidental.LA burns because Democrats want it to. Democrats are on the side of looters, rioters, arsonists, perverts, degenerates, maniacs, killers, gangbangers, *****philes, fraudsters, invaders, savages and freaks. They are the party of burning police cars and the party of South American drug gangs. They are the party that want American daughters raped, American sons murdered, American homes and businesses burning, Americans laws defied, American lives lost. How many times must it happen before everyone is honest about this?There has never ever been a clearer link between insane political ideology and harmful antisocial consequences as there is between the way Democrats invert morality, pervert justice, and recruit violent and disturbed people to their cause or deploy paid mobs and imported armies of thugs and criminals to terrorise America. There is a reason these outbreaks happen in Democrat controlled areas. There is a reason these outbreaks are always occurring in Democrat areas during a Republican Presidency. There is a reason that police forces elsewhere can prevent them, and the police in LA or San Francisco or Chicago can’t. There is a reason that before the burning starts we see hundreds of identical printed banners with the same slogans that appear on Democrat websites or as Democrat talking points.There is a reason that there was a short gap at the start of the second Trump term before these riots got going. Kamala Harris had spent all the Democrats money on her failed bid, and funding from some of the usual CIA taps was blocked as well. We had a peaceful transition because they couldn’t afford at that point to pay anyone to burn **** down and because the NGOs were in chaos worrying about DOGE. That’s the only reason there wasn’t massive violence at that point. The people who organise and pay for the violence were temporarily broke, and temporarily playing catch up. But give them long enough and….here we are.

And LA burns.

Greta is on her way home. Apparently 8 of her fellow activists have elected to stay in Israel and experience the Jewish "justice" system. Good luck with that guys.
