Politics - The Non-Brexit Thread.

Guardian Columnist and Labour Party apologist Owen Jones is an absolute twat. I know he's so far up Corbyn's arse that he can touch his tonsils but he's such an irritating git. He seems to have one mode when on TV which is to talk over and shout down anyone who has an opinion different to his.

Fancies himself a future Home Secretary

So you can see him as Home Secretary with Boris as PM.

The same David Cameron who quit as PM merely hours after Leave vote won the EU Referendum vote who incidently failed to prepare a Government for a possible eventuality that us mere peasants dare vote against the Government's advice to Remain.Political history will not treat Cameron (or Gideon Osborne or Tony Blair) kindly but I suspect Cameron's notion about a return to politics is a mere putting an umbrella up in the middle of a wind tunnel exercise to use as an Anemometer (gauging public opinion basically).Cameron's delusion probably see's a return to politics as a means to repair any damage he's done to the country (as well to his reputation) but would only serve as band-aid to fix a broken leg.

I've no doubt Cameron & Osborne are black-balled from the Commons which sure as fuck points all the way for them to be ushered into the old-people's home aka The House of Lords.

The problem with the Labour wing of the party that are staunch Corbynista's like Owen Jones,Paul Mason etc is that whenever anti-semitism is discussed they'll brush over it then try to discuss islamophobia in the same sentence.The old saying about 'you judge a man by the company they keep' maybe true with regards to Jeremy Corbyn that whilst he may not be racist or an anti-semitic but a lot of his close friends like Ken Livingston are & so if you lay down with dogs you will end up with fleas.And with regards Corbyn's secret love-child Owen Jones who's nothing more who that a soundbite columnist who believes all criminals are a victim of poverty with mental health issues (his actual words) & that everything wrong in this country will be solved by taxing the rich more.I've seen him in a few tv debates where he walked off set instead of what he should be doing debating.

As SecretAgent elequently put it Labour are the party that keeps giving as the MP for Bradford West Naz Shah who was previously suspended for anti-semitic tweets (as well as criticizing victims in the child-grooming scandal for speaking out) was given the post of 'Shadow Equalities Minister' earlier in the year.You really couldn't make it up.

With the Met Police investigating anti semitic social media posts that they were made aware of from a Labour Party internal document (unpublished) given to them by LBC one has to wonder why the Labour Party did not report them. Attempted cover up?

Should we organise a whip round to get Jeremy Corbyn a decent black coat for Remembrance Sunday?

London's unused water cannon to be sold by Sadiq Khan ( December 2016 )

Boris Johnson's unused water cannon sold for scrap at £300k loss

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-46258584

Did Sadiq Khan seek advice from old Gordon Brown (who undersold our gold reserves at rock bottom prices) before selling the mothballed equipment & if he sold them when he said he was in 2016 he probably would have received a lot more for them.The funny bit was when 'negotiating expert' Khan admitted he tried to claw back as much money as possible for them when in fact he virtually gave them away for fuck all.Oh well the proceeds will probably go to another 'Sadiq jets around on another foreign jolly holiday fund'.

Sadiq's hopelessly out of his depth already as London Mayor so selling the water cannons was a means of helping his fear of water in those moments when he is physically out of his depth.

Khan is a twat but Boris should have checked that they were actually ok for use in the UK before they were purchased.

There's a strict approval process for any Police equipment before it gets anywhere near the streets.
