into Putins hands and so it goes on. This is obvious to everyone looking at the long term.
So the question is more one why Europe’s leaders are so weak and ineffective?
Put more bluntly.
1) WTF is wrong with them?
2) why isn’t anyone with decent sized mouthpiece screaming this from the rooftops?

attrition. The deal goes south as expected. Putins calculation of western amnesia wagers about 3-4 months before he can repackage the same non-serious deal, often torpedoing it himself. Because he has no interest in the deal but everything to gain from delay. Euro leaders keep hand wringing, playing

I remember driving through Liverpool a decade or so back and thinking, where’s the rest of it? It’s only 3 times bigger than the town I grew up in.

this awful creature will never cease to plumb new depths

Nah - it’s been Anglicised, look at the teeth. Not a bright shiny Hampstead in the whole gallery. At least 4 of them have the same set.

Hope so. How’s the constitution holding up so far?

Thank you. This horrific policy proposal would rip families apart and ruin lives. Every MP should amplify this message and call it out for what it is. A racist, ignorant and cruel proposal that is beneath our great nation. How Philp has ducked due criticism on this is beyond me.

Hate to break it to you but the US is a captured nation. The next president will be the same president. If you’re patiently waiting for the next election to start fixing things - too late. I hope I’m wrong.

Hence the last sentence. It’s a nonsense but these people are lunatics and will win back power soon enough

ignoring the hideous nature of this. What; when they go part-time to have kids, get ill or take time out to look after relatives or just you know - retire....... are they suddenly below a deportation threshold? These policies are performative nonsense which is the only thing keeping my family safe.

We’ll chronicled in the family light entertainment movie The Firm

Great shout. It would imply a level media competency previously unseen by this government though.

Starmer could have opened his speech about policies to make the country more equal instead of refuelling the immigration nonsense. He’s just validating Faragist talking points by finding‘solutions’ to a fabricated problem

No he won’t. He couldn’t even call out Farage’s latest remigration policy as pure racism. Just that it wasn’t properly thought out or costed. I can’t conceive of a mindset that thinks that way

Awful but the John Crace article was perfect. Summed up Farage and his stupid racist policy for what it is.

Duh!

Oh do fuck off. Ian’s right to call these cunts out for what they are and every prick who’s thinking about voting for them.

Yes - absolutely.
