They lie to drive the narrative, which in turn gets amplified by the papers front pages.
Those front pages are read out on BBC & Sky and hey presto it becomes a truth to be debated
And so a lie sets the agenda

How can we have a situation, whereby at the very time young people are struggling with affordability & housing, house prices are raising?
We are fed the line low interest rates are good. But for who?

The difference is now Farage would sell us out to Trump and Putin
Polanski would quickly be seen with a letter from Putin talking about peace in our time
We do face threats to us not an isolated war like the Balkans
The situation today is very different

What part? Because apart from the possibility of him jumping ship to Reform (and why not he's proved a politician of very little loyalty) it's all fact

He's a LD reject & failed actor
An opportunistic snake oil salesman
A world with Putin and Trump and him saying our defense policy is holistic and diplomacy based. We believe the defence of the planet is as important as the defence of the nation
He'll have joined Reform by then anyway

I know but he's really really awful once you get past the sound bites
Basically a Liberal Democratic failed candidate
He jumped ship to the Greens after they rejected him
He's got opportunist charlatan written all over him
The Emperor is stark bollock naked

Have people actually listened to Polanski?
He's alarmingly clueless beyond the sound bites
Just the opposite populist arse cheek from Farage
I actually think he can't believe people are taking him seriously
Both he and Farage must be bricking themselves they could win the next election

That's somewhat short of a true representation of Liverpool fans.
No-one from Norway
No-one suggests they'll boycott the game and watch ITV instead
No-one saying "I didn't decide to support Liverpool at the start of the season for this! I've a good mind to go back to supporting Barcelona"

People are being fed a line on social media
When I talk to people they just repeat whatever they have read on Facebook or a WhatsApp group as fact.
If they are told things are really bad, they ignore the 3 holidays they have had this year and simply nod along

Don't forget every price is +tax and tip in the States
These days someone at the till, packing your bag (even if you don't want them to) handing over food at a fast restaurant all demand (yes demand) a tip of at least 20%
It's a crazy situation

It's even worse in Wales we are entitled to a free check up over 60
If you have an NHS dentist that's fine and you get the NHS treatment
If you don't have the NHS dentist you pay full private amount
It should be a tax reduction or similar for everyone the same
Currently not fair

Where I live in a semi rural part of Wales it's easier to win the lottery than get an NHS dentist
Mine retired and after 30 years I had to sign on to the same practice as a private patient
They even charged me £60 to register
It's a rip off
