Ardal's father was the odious Rory O'Hanlon, misogynist, homophobe and Minister for Health in Ireland during the AIDS crisis, so he knows bigotry when he sees it, and thankfully still calls it out.

Trump: I’m very proud of the job he’s done. What he’s done is incredible in terms of human rights.

Could prob accept some pretty draconian small boat policies if there was a genuine safe route policy alongside it. So far we have no details at all.

The Home Secretary says "we have become the destination of choice in Europe, clearly visible to every people smuggler and would-be illegal migrant across the world"
That is a factually untrue claim: the Home Office shows that the UK is fifth, getting 1/10 claims, while Germany gets 1/5 claims

There were 93 homicides in London last year: population 9 million
In New York - population 8.5 million - there were
391.
London's homicide figure is 6 times lower than LA, 9 times lower than Miami, 17 times lower than Chicago.
And it's falling year on year despite the population increasing

British bellends in Spanish Benidorm threw a protest against immigration. This must be the kind of galaxy-level stupidity where you’re screaming about ‘immigrants’ while you’re drunk in a foreign country, sunburnt to hell, and literally the immigrant clogging up the place.

Reeves and Starmer committed to a Manifesto. If they can keep to that despite the headwinds from US and elsewhere then I expect them to. That’s what I voted for.
I voted for the Country they’re rebuilding and investing in. Good job. In my opinion.

Watch anything filmed in London in the '70s. It looks like a bombsite they've tried to camouflage by spraying it all with soot from a hose and then dumping rubbish all over it.
"What is certain, and felt instinctively by almost everybody, is that things cannot go on in their present way" – The Times, May 1975
“It is difficult to imagine a previous period when such an all-pervasive hopelessness was exhibited at all levels of British life” – Professor Stephen Haseler, 1975

A woman shrugging off what happened to Virginia Giuffre who ended up *killing herself* as ‘well, boys will be boys, it’s totally normal’ is grotesque.
The fact that they’re victim blaming is unsurprising. When a woman does it, there’s an added twist to the knife. They should definitely know better.
