Hope it went well big man.

I suspect very little. The average Reform voter is not actively engaged with the real world. They get their news from Dave down the pub who knows that all firefighters (woke word it used to be firemen) have second jobs and anyway we don’t get many fires now and people should rescue their own cats.

They fought the Nazis to keep them out. Now their offspring are opening their front doors and inviting them in. Those who fought must be turning in their graves.

So he’ll still claim the £300 per diem allowance for popping his head around the door at the House of Lords. Grifters have to grift.

Hannan is at least consistent. Albeit consistently wrong. But in common with those educated at public school and Oxford his sense of entitlement is such, and his network, that he invariably fails upwards. In a nutshell Hannan neatly encapsulates all that is insufferable about his type.

Loughton, Essex. Knock me down with a feather. Whoever thought such thoughts would prevail there?

I recall, not that long ago, a Tory government raising income tax and NI although their manifesto committed to not do so. Did they both call for the removal of Jeremy Hunt at the Time?

I predict that Musk losing control of his bladder due to Ketamine abuse will come before civil war in the UK

People seeking to work rather than rely on handouts whilst their protracted immigration applications are processed. We can’t have that. It would be an outrageous outbreak of pragmatism and common sense. No place for that in today’s UK.

Congratulations and wishing you many more successful years no matter the nonsensical hurdles that Brexit puts in your way.

But when other countries ignore International law that is an outrage. When the UK does it it is fine because we are British and exceptional. Is that how it works?

Where is Banks’ evidence of blacks being given favorable treatment? I don’t see it.
October 26, 2025 at 5:45 PM
Surely not. Farage stated in his 2024 manifesto that council tax would either fall or remain the same. Similarly he promised 90 billion in tax cuts which he quietly shelved two weeks back.

Brexit is the catalyst for all of this. Be it the requirement to further raise taxation in the round, or specifically on the drinks industry. The huge tax collection shortfall caused by the 4-5% reduction in UK GDP after Brexit, is without doubt the cause. Politicians still largely in denial.

You misspelt stunt

I wonder where they are going. They voted away their freedom of movement.

Hodges, like Fraser Nelson, has played his part in this increased racism. He cannot wash his hands of it.

Depriving ILR would require primary legislation, not possible on a statutory instrument, which Reform would need to get through both houses. Even then the rights of appeal and judicial review would come into play. Removal not going to happen. Performative nonsense for votes.

Is it too much to ask for elected officials in charge of large budgets to be able to talk in grammatically correct sentences and be able to conjugate verbs accurately in the present and past tenses.

So many questions. What Defence work will the Navy stop doing to perform civil duties. Where will the Navy patrol, in UK waters as they can’t enter French waters. If they allow migrants to board a UK vessel so becoming a UK issue what will the Navy do with them. Cummings talking nonsense.

Jenrick is pathetically attempting the David Cameron faux football fan nonsense. Famously Cameron could not remember whether he supported Villa or West Ham, only that they wore claret and blue. Cue much derision of posh boy trying to burnish working class credentials. Jenrick is equally inauthentic.

Apart from anything else this Councillor is semi literate.

I can only assume that was tongue in cheek. She inherited a 3 trillion pound national debt equivalent to 100% of GDP, up from 60% in 2010, and the catastrophe that was Brexit. Everyone would be getting poorer regardless of the colour of government and this will
Continue for the foreseeable.

But wasn’t Crafty ( Darren Grimes) elected to cut waste and cut council tax. Presumably the cost of extra Kleenex has cancelled out the DEI savings.

Kavanaugh allegedly raped a fellow student whilst at college. He’d have no issue with masked men detaining a single woman at the dead of night. After all he believes in what the French call ‘le droit de seigneur’.
