"we'll change the things that need changing and that's all we'll change": the paSUKification of post-brexit politics 2021

Based on my timeline this has had more cut-through than pretty much any other political topic in months including anything specific Covid-related. Any idea why? Has someone run a well-organised campaign on it? https://t.co/RyEIbDDpZd

the wild swimming progressive alliance are not going to take this swim in this shit!

Lol it's a combination as various people on that thread explain

Springwatch is far more influential than all the politics shows it seems. The director general will be coming for them next!

I have a yahoo e-mail I use for spam and so occasionally I look at the yahoo.co.uk main page - audience seems to be FBPE boomers. Anyway today's headline there is "Starmer calls for action over 'sickening' schools protests"

(it's about anti-vax protests but still)

chill Kieth, it's half-term this week

Just using their beloved MP's death to deflect criticism.

This is the truth about how we voted on the environment bill. None of us voted to discharge sewage into the sea and those of who have spread lies and misinformation should hang their heads in shame. Don’t ask why MPs get death threats if you have been part of this today #toxic https://t.co/QhZ4vjfVUF

lol if only the raw sewage getting pumped into British waterways was the same weak piss as that bill. I'm pretty sure the guy that killed Amess wasn't a How They Vote regular

Only john craven can save ye now

they didn't vote to pump sewage into the rivers tbf they just voted to not stop water companies from pumping sewage into rivers, get your facts straight woke bullies

I care about stopping waste because I respect taxpayers and I respect our public services.

That's why Labour would create an independent Office for Value for Money, to crack down on the waste that has been so rampant under this Tory government. pic.twitter.com/s1iMrYrFqZ

a psychopath without any psychopathic charisma + with a voice that oddly sounds like it is turning into Kieth's does a video scripted by the Taxpayers' Alliance. Way to go Labour, your killing it!

An independent Office For On The Money cannot be far off.

Apparently YouTube have removed Novara's channel

Really need to go Khmer Rouge on these people.

Equally, a call for Trump to be booted off platforms doesn’t make a sauce for the goose/gander claim about Novara. With Trump there were extensive violent incitements, often racist ones, Novara doesn’t do that. The free speech abstraction doesn’t clarify how bad the conflation is

— Tom Gann (@Tom_Gann) October 26, 2021

I've had a fair few co-dydramols today and thought I was tripping when I saw Laurence Fox + chums defending Novara and some high-minded concept of free speech that involves defending dangerous bigots lest you lose your own platform. That response from Ash Sakar is very bad and something of an overreaction perhaps.

Yeah baby

Rishi Sunak is cutting tax on domestic flights... a few days before COP26 starts

makes getting there cheaper, i guess.

i heard him announce money for another beatles museum in liverpool...

The Chancellor, Rishi Sunak, has announced a new Beatles museum for Liverpool in his Budget.

— BBC North West (@BBCNWT) October 27, 2021

in the docks! apparently (1) the beatles are somehow an essential part of Liverpool's maritime heritage (2) there isn't enough beatles shit in Liverpool already (3) 2 million is enough to build a museum and (4) none of the money is going to Speke, where two of the beatles grew up and which desperately needs any investment it can get.

Meanwhile the only bits of opposition around are going to risk their lives, limbs and freedoms.

some good discipline from the protesters getting inked, but also I'm quite annoyed one of them didn't deck the cunt!

it's catching

Make no mistake: Climate change is an existential threat to humanity.

We need to act. We need to pass my Build Back Better Agenda.

it was bad enough when he was doing wholesale plagiarism on a shit Neil Kinnock speech

Language is powerful but ... feel a bit sad that Angela Rayner has apologised for her "scum" comments. Partly because I believe she was right but mostly because the actions/inactions of this current government and the contempt they have for most people is far worse than anything Rayner will ever say or do.

it's a cowardly move and will only make the tories portray themselves as a persecuted minority more than they already did

yep, she's a coward and being played like a sucker. if she had referred to Corbyn as an "IRA twat" publicly there wouldn't have been any pressure to apologise to him and armed forces were using a pic of him at the shooting range. Calling Tories scum isn't an incitement for violent action against them, not that I'd discourage it.

Greens holding solid at 10, ahead of Lib Dems.

Tories 6 points if Lab ahead in latest polling.

Perhaps she should’ve stuck to ‘lower than vermin’.

Too close to the logical conclusion that the PLP are level with vermin

The original comment was stupid and transparently a feeble attempt to show she hadn't sold out and was still the same old Angie From The Block, so no sympathy from me.

Excellent news.

you can't beat the benefits of a really good private education

that’s a real heady mix of ignorance and racism going on there boris, you must be so proud of yourself you pathetic little twat

this garrulous moron is a published author as well as PM and this is perfectly normal!

what a foul, cheap asshole

Call me cynical but main commitments that will come from #COP26 key leaders will be climate investments in false, capitalist greenwashing solutions (carbon markets, net zero); and ecofascist climate security strategies that further border securitization & defense infrastructure.

you don't say!

is that senile old twat who lives in 40 room mansion going to tell us we need to live more frugally again?

Specifically?

I mean, could be Boris, Jacob, Toffo, Lumley, Phil the g.. Oh wait not him... (etc)

lol I meant Sir David Frederick Assenborough or is it Twattenborough. Shitbird has done a zillion air miles and lives in a fucking castle with an entourage of butlers and had the gall to say *we* need to live more frugally

Ah right, salut.

I was sure it was the Queen too!

she's that close to physical death that the incoming collapse of human civilisation is no biggie to her, which is actually a more defendable position than her son trying model himself as eco-prophet whilst flogging biscuits that cost twenty quid in Fortnum & Mason or that hypocritical chimpanzee shagger!

From a twitter acc bcz it hasn't been reported on.

Amazing how Owen Paterson’s corruption, Rose Paterson’s death, Robert Jenrick’s Housing scandal and Dido Harding’s government contracts are all explicitly linked to the Jockey Club and not a single journalist can touch it with a barge pole.
