British Politics

And it hasn’t even caused much of a stir.

All because an oaf in America tweeted something.

The logical follow on of the “cut all aid, we shouldn’t care about anybody else” brigade is that if they happened to be walking past as somebody like Ashling Murphy was being attacked, they would walk on. Nothing to do with me, bruv.

This fella is a big Israel lobbyist. There doesn’t seem to have been much if any vetting of Israel lobby approved Labour candidates.

He holds Jacob Rees-Mogg’s seat, so if there’s a by election you’d expect Rees-Mogg to walk back in.

If theres a by election??

Lolz, she really is untentional satire

The world is absolutely fucked.

Kemi Badenoch says electric cars are causing increased rates of potholes.

Seems like the source of her claim is a bullshit “story” in the Daily Mail which had to be retracted.

She didn’t mention the Tories reduced road maintenance spending from £4.7 billion in 2010 to £1.6 billion in 2024.

Intellectually she’s not even at the level of a 4Chan shitposter.

Kemi is making Liz truss look like Vladimir Putin

It’s not a good thing to be compared to Vladimir Putin.

He’s a strategic thinker of the highest order.

If he was a strategic thinker of the highest order he wouldn’t be stuck in a military quagmire in Ukraine entirely of his own making and he wouldn’t have lost control over Syria.

If he was a US President and named George W. Bush he’d be ridiculed as the most spectacular blunderer since, eh, eh, I don’t know, eh, Hitler? Who for some time was also thought of by many as a strategic thinker of the highest order.

The point about the difference between tactics and strategy has been made before. Putin is good at tactics, not strategy.

Putin’s currency is short term “victories” which ensure long term destruction for Russia.

Of course of if you maintain he only thinks about his bank balance, his personal grip on power and on causing as much wreck in the world as possible and nothing else, then you may say he’s a strategic thinker. And that would be fair.

But he is not a strategic thinker as regards his country, he’s a wrecker of his country.

He’s a politician mate, what do you think is his primary interest?

If Boris Johnson was the Frank Lampard managing Chelsea of politics (possibly the Barry Ferguson managing Glasgow Rangers of politics) and Liz Truss was the Loris Karius of politics, Kemi Badenoch is the Ali Dia of politics, except Graeme Souness at least realised he’d been conned by Ali Dia and whipped him off after 20 minutes whereas Badenoch continues to take the pitch.

Are criminal dictators “politicians”?

Trump says he’s not a politician. What does Putin say? Was Hitler a politician?

“German politician Adolf Hitler” or “Cambodian politician Pol Pot” might technically be correct descriptions but they seem more than a bit inadequate.

I have no idea what your point is.
The majority of politicians are primarily self serving.

Are the majority of politicians self serving on the level that Vladimir Putin is self serving?

He’s a dictator not a politician.

North Korean politician Kim Jong Un.

Starmer and other shitlibs have zero understanding that pandering to racists will never work.

You completely concede the terms of the game, the racists respect you even less than they already do and you alienate your core vote.
