Argue in circles about British politics thread
kungfufighter should do as the choo-choo train and kungfu-fuck off.
You’re right. I shouldn’t confuse going to a private school with being well educated.

Brilliant! The Tories and their Brexiters have finally owned up to being the racist party. Admitting that hatng black people, brown people and yellow people is what they're all about.
How? Because they are bloody furious at Channel 4 for likely costing them votes. Why else?
Well done Channel 4 for showing Brexiters' true colours- white only.
Channel 4 has apologised after subtitles below a speech made by Boris Johnson suggested he said he wanted migration of “people of colour”.
Channel 4 said: “Boris Johnson says ‘people of talent’ not ‘people of colour’. Our earlier tweet was a mistake. We misheard and we apologise.”
A senior Tory source said:
This shows why it has been impossible to cooperate with Channel 4 News. They are campaigners in this election, inventing the most damaging things possible to further their campaign against Brexit. This sort of thing is why so many media organisations have collapsing audiences. We sadly do not expect the senior management at Channel 4 to take this terrible mistake seriously and we expect more of the same.
It seems they are also more than partial to a supersized helping of irony: "inventing the most damaging things possible to further their campaign".
They also think; poor people who live in tower blocks are stupid; disabled people don't understand money and therefore should be paid less; and, of course, they absolutely hate the poor.
Big revelations? Of course not. But it is funny how all parts of the establishment are attacking Labour while totally and utterly forgetting the bleedin obvious. I suppose they are managing to pull the wool over the eyes of the dumbest of the dumb- your average Brexit/would be Thatcher supporter.

I suggest you go and have a long cry. It may help you feel better.

Oops
Alexandra Hall Hall.
Hall Hall was a career diplomat and CNN quotes from her resignation letter, which it says was widely circulated amongst diplomats. In it she said:
I have been increasingly dismayed by the way in which our political leaders have tried to deliver Brexit, with reluctance to address honestly, even with our own citizens, the challenges and trade-offs which Brexit involves; the use of misleading or disingenuous arguments about the implications of the various options before us; and some behaviour towards our institutions, which, were it happening in another country, we would almost certainly as diplomats have received instructions to register our concern.
It makes our job to promote democracy and the rule of law that much harder, if we are not seen to be upholding these core values at home ...
I am also at a stage in life where I would prefer to do something more rewarding with my time, than peddle half-truths on behalf of a government I do not trust.

Does Britain really want a liar and a coward who doesn't even know his own policies for its PM?
Yes, of course it does.

The Economist nailed it as usual. Nor extremist conservative Brexiters without a clue, not Corbyn Marxists. Libdems to them are the only common sense option. They won't win but can help moderate the extremists
She chose the wrong career. Some women just can't keep their traps shut, not a good trait for being a successful diplomatic.kungfufighter wrote: ↑Fri Dec 06, 2019 11:49 pmOops

I liked it when the Telegraph's Europe editor, Peter Foster, verified the document Corbyn held up yesterday about Johnson's amazing oven-ready BREXIT deal, and its implications on border checks and the NI economy. That's got to be embarrassing for Telegraph readers.
Should have been all over the front pages. But of course wasn't.
The Guardian didn't even headline it. Preferring to tag it as:
When it should have read - Foster.
Another thing I have noticed is that, in both live TV head to head debates the media have all been saying a slight win to Johnson and no knock out blows in either.
I disagree.
The first debate had Corbyn showing the FOIA redacted version of the US free trade deals with the NHS on the table regarding drugs and patient data.
That caused quite a furor.
Last night's debate, saw Corbyn holding up another document. This time showing the real NI BREXIT deal Johnson had agreed with the EU. Already causing some furor.
No knock out blows indeed.
Which just goes to show that it's hard to get ahead when the top 5% are against you.

Jo Swindon is a self righteous dimwit. She also believes there is such a thing as the "female penis'" but maybe that's because one of the LibDem's biggest donors is Spire, a health care provider which specialises in facial feminisation and hormone blockers. Either way, she's far too woke to moderate anything.

Roll Up, Roll Up!
Post Election:
The Tory Party: Destroying People's Lives Since 1834
Welcome to Johnson's -Third World banana monarchy - On lease lend from Trump/China to the Tory/Brexit Party- as workhouse capitalist theme park and post imperial slum.
With the continuing slide in the value of the £ and still falling, book now for a dystopian holiday of a life time. Enjoy the spectacle of zero hour contracts, absence of employment rights, low wages, high rents, social and private housing without fireproofing, tenancy rights or security. Marvel at the increase in food banks, the homeless living on the streets, the crumbling semi privatised NHS - complete privatisation pending - with extended waiting times, staff shortages, overworked doctors/nurses. Patients waiting for hours on trolleys in corridors of rat infested charity hospitals. Witness the disabled, sick and terminally ill forced to work or have their support removed or reduced - watch them die or voluntarily commit suicide if they fail to meet the correct criteria.
See ERG kapos arrest dissenting academics, unemployed/feckless/workshy to be sent to hard labour work camps and those deemed racially inferior deported. Experience the discomfort of a foreign owned overpriced third world rail system and crumbling infra structure. Marvel at the desolate North of England without industry or jobs whose lumpen proles loath 'foreigners'/ Londoners/ avocado toast so much, they drank Farage's snake oil to accelerate their economic demise. Ditto Wales, whose population have spent so many years in the prone position to their masters, voted overwhelmingly for their own destruction. Their fellow Celts the Scots/Northern Irish, sent the Welsh a spine in the post but it was lost en route by the privatised Royal Mail. Enjoy local delicacies, cordon bleu chlorinated chicken, and traditional roast beef with a side order of growth hormones and antibiotics at no extra charge.
See intellectually challenged Tory/Brexiters dressed in their traditional turkey costumes with Union Jack waistcoats - for them everyday is Christmas - parading aimlessly around Nigel's column in Trafalgar Square, a statue of a used car dealer, pint in one hand fag in the other, tongue distended in honour of Trumpy Dumpy's rear end. Listen as the turkeys cluck and gobble "TAKING BACK CONTROL, TAKING BACK CONTROL," as they stare vacantly into a bright new future as the meat vans arrive to take them away to the slaughterhouse.
Roll Up, Roll Up!
