Election Year or Fear!

[MadAmster]

The right win play book relies upon using peoples valid concerns to divide and stoke up prejudice, yet when in power they offer few if any solutions. I see Italy are having issues with their Albania off shoring idea.

During a recent visit to the Uganda, the Dutch minister for trade and development, Reinette Klever, said the cabinet was exploring the idea and that Uganda was “not averse” to it. Klever said she'd spoken to to a Minister.

Uganda’s foreign affairs minister said the country was willing to contemplate the possibility. “We are open to any discussions”. 24 hours later another Minister, the one Klever said she'd spoken to, denied he'd spoken to her about it.

Last week a Junior Finance Minister resigned because the "Commons" wanted him to disclose exactly how many shares and stock holdings he had and where.

Today, another Junior Minister has resigned over the way the Cabinet is handling the riots around the Macabbi supporters and local youths.

I said when the agreement was reached to form this coalition a couple of months back that it wouldn't last a year. Two resignations already, an immigration Minister who is unable to answer MPs questions on her intended policy budget with regard to WHAT she intends to achieve, HOW she's going to do it and WHEN we will see results.

I don't think this bunch of jokers will be proving me wrong.

Meanwhile over in the US, the pantomime is being cast! Its going to end in tears that's for sure.

It seems yesterday's resignation was of a female legal eagle who was charged with sorting out the mess caused by a scandal whereby more than 4000 people were accused of benefits fraud, forced to pay back 1000s they didn't have. That led to some bankruptcies, jail, divorces, kids being forcibly taken into care and a few suicides. She is a member of the NSC party.

It seems that at one Cabinet meeting on Monday several PVV Ministers uttered some particularly nasty and racist remarks. The Junior Minister is of Moroccan descent. Former Lawyer, former prosecutor, former judge. She decided to resign over the comments. Cue panic and an all day meeting of the full Cabinet incl. all ministers, both Junior and Senior. all secretaries of state, the PM and the leaders of all 4 coalition parties. NSC received certain guarantees from the other coalition parties so didn't pull the plug on the coalition.

The coalition survived this fiasco but it won't last much longer.

Meanwhile back home, our chancellor has been caught out again being "economic" with the truth.
During her career at the Bank of Scotland, as an economist.
Lying on the CV that she has since deleted ‘economist’ from her LinkedIn profile work experience and changed it to ‘retail banking’ during her time at the bank in 2006-9.
Andy would have a field day with her, after she was busted for plagiarising other work into her book.

Seems shes economical with the truth as well. A fine career ahead.

I see our Nige is stirring the hornets nest again over Southport.

Not sure what you are referring to, its OK to leave a link despite protests!

Whilst looking, I came across this which, if not scripted for him, does show that our leader hasat least a moderate sense of humour. This is in response to a comment by Nigel Farage: 'Sir Keir replied: "Well I'm glad to see the right honourable member making a rare appearance back here in Britain. He's spent so much time in America recently, I was half expecting to see him on the immigration statistics'. Case of beer heading your way for that one Sir Keir

My opinion on that hinges on whether the cover up he refers to relates to an incident/activity that is real or fake, I'm aware of what the incident/activity is

The problem for me is, while he will use the fact he's not actually said what as a defence, what it does do is have people reaching for x.com etc searching for the said rumours and spreading them.

We all know the dangers of unsubstantiated rumours online.

Totally agree, and he deserves to be called out as a **** stirrer if the rumours are false. What if they aren't? What is he then, and what are the people who are covering up?

What if the rumours are true, what will people do then?
As I understand it, the rumours involve Rwanda atrocities , brought over by an ex PM and a certain person defending his deportation.

This could be a government bring down if true.

Or Farage has just ended his political career. He has certainly been gagged in parliament. He has stated that, the trial date, is being bounced around, to put it back as far as possible, by certain people.

Oh the drama.

Perhaps re open the locked thread soon?

Is this the same kier, who took a boat load on a private jet to Azerbaijan, that not one big gun attended? Lorded it up, as the UK are world climate savers?
Has been parading around with Macron like a military general on an open top vehicle and jumping around getting no where, all over Europe, whilst the UK sinks in one disaster after another? Oh the ironing.

Sith posted for clarification. You post propaganda. Your problem if you can’t tell the difference.

Rubbish, as said before. I can post in my own words and you scoff it. I prove who/what /when and why and you refuse to listen.
Perhaps re read you own comments once in a while.

NB, that was via GBEEBIES NEWS as you call it.
So you can watch when it suits
