Now I think for the first time we are seeing who is talking real bollocks!

We've had successive Tory governments rip this country apart with no real passion to deal with the problems we have faced for the last 14+ years with no obvious solution. They did very little to stop the mass immigration, they have simply let the energy crisis gain a firm foothold in this country with no real obvious solution and were either way too scared to slap a tax on them or force them to bring down prices down and their handling of the economy was never in the best interests of this country. Now it seems like a case od deja vu with this lot, we are seeing things getting completely out of hand under this Starmer regime, he is about as useless as turnip. (I couldn't use lettuce it probably would have been too kind to him).

I would not be surprised if in the next few months people will start forcing their MP's to step aside (i.e deselect them) and force by elections that might see seats change hands or reduced majorities and probably then we might see the MP's act far more humanely and sensible and knowing that they face that scenario of deselection if they get things wrong.

The far wider picture (I know I probably did menton this before I'm sure), all this points all the way back to from 2008 onwards and Osbourne's Austerity measures.
Maybe by seeing now what is happening Under Starmer, it is time we started voting much more tactfully in the future and we vote in such a way so that we have a series of hung parliaments an coalition goverment with no overal majority for ANY party whoever they are, that forces partie to pool ideas and work together as one and each measure is put to us in some sort referendum and gives us the final say to say yes or no.

IMO This government seems to have over the last few months has moved further and further away from what it promised us in the election and what Starmer promised in his speech in Downing Street. They are going down rabbit holes that probably have dead ends. We have seen things get further and further out of govrenment control and whatever measure they try to come up with, it looks more and more like s sticking plaster job and with no real firm solution to fill in the cracks. In other words - They are trying to utdo the the stupidity of past Tory govenments with their own stupidity that actually beggars belief. Cunts & bollocks to the lot of them!!

Starmer will get fucked over by every country around the world once it does take hold.

Then to actually abandon or withdraw an inquiry into those grooming gangs (is that just just to cover up his time in CPS I hear?) is far below stink bomb levels. I can imagine the families of those victims will not let Starmer off the hook with that for a very long time.

I watched a video of a e petition being debated on youtube the other evening for about 5 minutes.

It was the one that was calling for a general election that had almost 3.2m signatures. The person leading the debate that while e petitions where a mechsnisms for us to express our view it would not directly have an effect on the result in the election. That made me wonder that had every person in thr country had signed it probably the e peition probably would have caused a far bigger concern.

I think now it would take a series of monumental events I would think to dislodge Starmer. I would not be surprised if by this time next year,there will be quiet mumurings on the Government back benches on his position.

Found myself nodding in agreement to virtually every word of this.
Worth a listen.

I watched and agreed with what was said. Farage/Musk was only a preview to what is likely on the horizon.

Starmer now needs to stand up and tell both Musk & Zuckerberg where to go and to hell with the consequences. Our online safety laws are OUR LAWS ane we will not change them to suit your agenda Musk. and keep your nose out of our political affairs.

Mr Musk You should get ylour online prorities right and get your online houses in order.

This is why I think Musk has been going after Starmer & his government, he's trying to get them to drop or weaken the online safety act before it formally comes into effect in March

I hope Starmer stands up to him and refuses

Protecting vulnerable people and kids online is very important about time Musk recognised that

Reeves is heading to China.

To ask for asylum, maybe
