Thread: Speedy Gonzales.

  1. #1

    Cool Speedy Gonzales.

    The Tories really must hate Suella Braverman, any self respecting Home Secretary would not want to be anywhere near the likes of me on a Speed Awareness Course (I am attending one in Chorley next week!)

    Slow news day or a storm in a teacup?

    Boring

    It’s a sad time when all Labour have to go on is a speed awareness course for braverman,

    There time would be better spent trying to do something positive to make the country better than playground spats.

    This is where we are in this country - the whole lot of them need to get a grip - tax payers money blown on the lot of them is sad in my eyes anyway.

    The Tories seem to want shut of Suella quicker than Starmer does. Damage limitation and all that army88.

    Sunak isn’t fit to run the country BT - people dislike braveman but in all honesty that’s because she tells it how she sees it and how many others we it - he’s weaker than Boris ever was as prime minister.

    My first analogy describes all of them perfectly playground spats - he said she said - what an absolute load of dross- both parties that is.

    I'm not following this at all, but why didn't she just pay the fine ?

    I'm told a person can do a Speed Awareness Course online, but the current crop of eejits who are running the UK into the ground are so far detached from day-to-day reality it's unreal.

    The Civil Service mandarins have just dobbed Blow Job in again to the Bizzies for alleged Covid backfield transgressions in 2020/21.

    Does anyone seriously give a flying f*ck?

    I read that Justin Welby, the Archbishop of Canterbury has been fined for speeding, he was doing 25mph in 20mpn zone. It didn't say whether he was driving a car or on a bike.

    sinkov, she did pay the fine, however, that is not enough for some people.
    It is definitely stuff that would be embarrasssing in the school playground, no wonder the country is in a mess when so much time is spent on trivialities.

    As I understand it Sub, she did take the points and pay the fine, but that was after she tried to avoid the fine and points by asking for a private speed awareness course to be arranged. If this is true then it shows a clear misuse of your position, which is something of a concern.

    Today the Independent is running a story that she failed to disclose a previous relationship with some members of the Rwandan government when as home secretary she is overseeing the deportation of refugees to Rwanda. Again if true her position on this gives some concern.

    When coupled with her previous problems where she had to resign, it is possible that her position is becoming untenable.

    All very likely VC, however, show me a politician at national or local level who has not tried to use their position to their advantage. Some are discovered to have done so but many just get away with it, depending on the level of greed which they pursue.
