Just had a scam call. The usual car accident, not your fault malarkey.
Told her it had just happened and there was blood everywhere. I asked if she could help me with a note of panic in my voice.
She hung up on me ๐ฌ๐

Apparently, don't laugh, Johnson had assured him, don't laugh, that the job, don't laugh, was in the bag, don't laugh, and Hancock, don't laugh, believed him. Laugh now ๐

They want to take all the "glories" of the empire without ever acknowledging the horrors that others paid for It. Deliberate whitewashing of history for decades creating a culture of wilful ignorance.

Cool story bruv. Now name all the donors and respective donations from your banquet last week. What do they get in return? How much is a peerage this week?

They're attacking Muslims and trying to burn down mosques.

They use their private phones to hand out juicy govt contracts to chums and avoid scrutiny, this is more of the same Tory exceptionalism and corruption.
@JolyonMaugham
If only someone had already solved all theses problems already, maybe even decades ago. We could call the solutions something like the Single Market and Customs Union

The companies have seen what is to them a "Brexit benefit" and grabbed the "Brexit opportunity" by the balls to make more profit. Nads should be over the moon

ยฃ3k p/w, he's a benefit scrounger living on the public purse loafing around watching his flat screen TV, probably got Sky, and a mobile phone, and lives in a council house, kids with multiple partners etc. ๐
@ThatTimWalker
ONS statistic have shown life expectancy on the UK has been dropping over the last decade, the first time it has gone down rather than up since records began.
In unrelated news, we've had a decade of Tory ideologically pushed austerity with more to come
@YvetteCooperMP
Yet it still got voted through by the detestable Tories. I hope you're keeping a list of all the vile bills that will need repealing when this cabal are ousted.

What if the councils were to spend the millions required for this useless needless policy on actually doing some good and providing services instead?

I've read today that his wife is employed by him as his secretary. In true Tory form, the priority is to keep their snouts in the trough above all else.

How do you accidentally set up shell companies in Gibraltar? The only carelessness he gives a fig about is that this scam was found out.
How many more scams is just this one Tory MP hiding?

How is the famously devout Hindu Sunak "living proof that the party does not have a problem with Islamophobia"?

The absolute state of the audience, paid to hear Patel speak re her racist policies. Not one of them gives a fig about the lives that they ruin. That's Toryism, vile.

That number was debunked when she first lied about it. We know it includes people that are students, disabled, retired etc. Braverman playing the "active economic units" card badly.
@MarinaPurkiss
N.B. that's the same hospital that Truss failed to recognise while on the campaign trail over the summer. Truss had to be told that she was the actual local MP ๐คฆโโ๏ธ
@dave43law
Sunak also claimed on national TV the nobody would be put aboard until all the safety checks were complete. Pandering to the rancid extremes of his beloved Tory party was never going to go well.
@bbcquestiontime
James Bartholemew hates the NHS, wrote a book dismantling the welfare state and is a far right libertarian loon. Of course you don't mention any of this.

Chalk blatantly lying about the laws re asylum, repeating the lies about "jumping queues" et al, all the RW lies and tropes. Zero pushback from Robinson of course.

In power for 12 years and still setting targets decades away in the future that you will never aim to achieve. Promise everything, deliver nothing, it's the Johnson golden age.

The EU offered it but the UKG refused it because it would have to be reciprocal and allow EU musicians and their teams to tour the UK, Full blame on PM Johnson and unelected bureaucrat Frost
@Chrisballingall
The trouble is the missing vital parts are the convos with Sunak. Sunak has refused to give over any messages at all. Should be held in contempt imo.
Social media is suggesting I was โattackedโ as I tried to get into

. I was not. I was directed wrongly right into the middle of the protest. I think the protesters thought I was deliberately provoking them. But no one touched me. Just shouted abuse. They were just loud!
