Well spoken. He's a lawyer having come here via the asylum system. If Rwanda had been in operation during his plight makes you wonder if we'd even see him 😞 Emily Thornberry, the psycho was there for Labour. Bim did the knock off Tony Blair routine of talking while waving his hands about. Hate politicians that do that shit.

Tory in shock honest financial mistake!🤔 It's amazing that the same type of mistake keeps happening to the people they appoint as Chancellor of the Exchequer.

He was ushered away because his “minders” know that if he isn’t reading from a pre prepared script he hasn’t got a clue.

Why would anyone expect him to have “working class” friends? He’s a trust fund baby.

Post above probably shows the bias that the BBC has against the Tories, so “brilliantly” explained here by our current culture secretary…

www.theguardian.com/business/2024/jan/22/average-uk-person-10200-worse-off-since-2010-thinktank-saysA slightly misleading headline. But had economic growth continued as per the pre2010 trends, we would all be an average of £10,200 richer right now. Aberdeen is hit the hardest by far (undermining Sunak’s policies on the environment). But we are told the tories are economically responsible and labour are not. The national debt has increased on average by £380m a day for each and every day of tory rule since 2010.

Not read it but does the report make some account of a world wide pandemic, economies being closed down or the Russian invasion of Eastern Europe.

Post above probably shows the bias that the BBC has against the Tories, so “brilliantly” explained here by our current culture secretary… When she references studies where people think the bbc are less impartial than recent years. She does realise that many people who hold those views feel its bias towards the government right? 🤣. I guess I must be missing those videos of Jeremy Corbyn laying wreaths from a decade ago in a "live" broadcast to save his blushes. And I'm missing the photos hopped background of Boris as a Russian in interviews. I must also be missing where the bbc doesn't comment on investigations on bias except for when Laura K was found by offcom to be bias and the bbc commented defending her? And I must also have missed the bbc directors brokering loans to politicians from opposition parties and I also must have missed the other bbc director a former Labour candidate? It's really back to the playground stuff. Where a bully hits a child and then says "she hit me first" and we get into this pathetic rhetoric of where your only defence is pointing the finger elsewhere. If I was asked about impartiality I can ring off all the above examples from the top of my head. Yet the "culture minister" simply has no evidence when asked multiple times. The closest evidence she has is a poll where people like me would have answered "yes it is bias towards the conseevstives" and somehow thst backs up her points?

I have a 90 year old relative in a nursing home with advanced dementia who is better able to express herself than that! It is utterly staggering that idiots like this have made it so far in politics. She is absolutely thick as mince, how could she not know the difference between perception and evidence? I truly hope she never ends up doing jury service!

It feeds into the data post2010, as does the much bigger economic impact of brexit. Pre2010 we had the global financial crash which also feeds into the figures. Growth was stagnant after 2010 and pre covid and pre Ukraine war. It is still stagnant.

I'm no fan of this govt but I find it churlish when I keep hearing people quote stuff like this stagnant growth without any reference to what has happened since 2010. Brexit, a world wide pandemic and the Ukraine war. Those issues haven't exactly laid decent foundations for straight forward economic growth. Brexit you can argue was self inflicted but in all honesty I think most establishment politicians of every stripe didn't want brexit to happen. I certainly didn't anyway.

Growth from 2010 until the pandemic was dismal too. Brexit was self inflicted damage caused by the right wing of the Conservative party. The fact is, despite the global financial crash, under Labour growth was far better than under the tories. In fact, name any public sector that has improved since 2010? Everything has got worse and yet we pay much more in tax.

As you say ridiculous levels of tax considering the state of our public services. And for me an ever expanding govt that is becoming more and more intrusive into the lives of people like me who just want to get on and earn my money and be left the fuck alone.

It's tragic given how horrifyingly shit Sadiq Khan is (as I'm sure all of us on here can agree on) and yet this is the best the Tories can offer? Anyone with an ounce of competence, passion and/or intelligence would annihilate Khan. He will continue to run London into the ground for many years to come.
