like the queen this thread will never die: in which we ALL resign (ourselves to disgusting miseries to post-boris politics 2022)

tbh they also think she's antisemitic by association because of her name

CW stans really are the dregs of the UK left - they remind me of (prob include some of) the ppl who used to flood every indymedia branch site with 9/11 zionist conspiracy bs

Yes, Con members will not have to deal with high bills, just the shit in their own heads.

1/ China and the Chinese Communist Party represent the largest threat to Britain and the world’s security and prosperity this century.

Sorry Rishi, if this contest is Fuck Russia vs Fuck China then I'm afraid you've chosen poorly.

There arguably are substantial problems with having Confucius Institutes on university campuses but it’s hard to see a ban not resulting in a tit for tat restriction on the British Council in China, which would be disastrous for a number of reasons.

oh yeah there are loads of reasons to criticise the Chinese government, but this is little more than sabre-rattling (without even having much of a sabre to rattle) and will be treated as such by Beijing. We can say the same about Liz and Russia, but at least she's (clumsily) tapping into some kind of appetite among the members.

Having said that I will be very glad if all the Confucius institutes get shut down.

Rishi's criticize Confucius campaign!

Loving watching these two cretins knocking lumps out of each other tbh.

Flying pancake ep of TNG was the 1st sci-fi I ever saw on TV! I was a bit too young to know wtf was going on, but the image of those things falling from the ceiling stuck with me.

Sorry TOS, not TNG.

Oops, wrong thread.

or is it?

look at this spam-faced cunt

Look how Starmer squirms when he's actually held to account by a member of the public pic.twitter.com/F5V319btW8

very impressive struggle session performance by the scouse lady, he's fucking pathetic.

Starmer sets out 5 economic principles of a Labour government

- Financially responsible
- Distinctively British
- Partnership with business
- Re-energise communities
- Invest to boost productivity

what the fuck man are you serious

Even by my already low expectations "making the Eddstone look like a radical statement of principles" is not great

this mf

Asked what action will follow the Forde report, which concluded "the least we could expect" from Labour is to address the hierarchy of racism under Starmer, he shamefully says he "didn't need" the report and it's just about what happened two years ago.pic.twitter.com/vV67X5rMli

the man knows his audience

it's clueless morally empty bootlickers

"Distinctively British" *boak*

the liverpool venue for this keir starmer speech is apparently called "the spine"

friends, donors, liverpudlians… lend me your spine

it lives!

Why? I don't know anything about them.

their presence on university campuses is effectively part of a system of surveillance & control of Chinese students studying overseas, and reporting on lecturers who, for example, use a world map with Taiwan marked with a different colour.
This isn't the reason Sunak is against them, you might notice.

Yup I do.

very impressive struggle session performance by the scouse lady, he's fucking pathetic.

He truly is a turd. Cunt just stared into space and said nothing!

I prefer him staring into space and saying nothing tbf.

...quiet day!...

I'm sure it's nothing to do with this incident, but if I were named Kate McCann I would simply rename myself Katie McCann or Cathy McCann or something before embarking upon a career in the media.

she's not in the media, she's on Talk TV

WELL IT'S NO WONDER

fuck all these people, but if you regularly deal with people who keep falling over or have epilepsy - that horrible thud sound is very triggering. But still hope they died tbh!

lmao

thought the thudding sound was Sunak dropping his wallet

it's a good job this debate was happening, if she'd had to wait for a viewer to call for help she could have been there for hours

very sad, thekafkadude is dead. this fucking country.

Yup, so young.

I always liked following him, such a shame.

There was a Labour fella Sam Tarry on the picket line doing a decent Mick Lynch impression. Don’t know much about him but it was refreshing to hear someone from Labour talking about supporting workers.

Labour Party Chair Anneliese Dodds says Shadow Transport Minister Sam Tarry joining the RMT picket line is something the Whips should be investigating

it's not a tactical change by the garbage leadership, they are still tories.

"There was a Labour fella Sam Tarry on the picket line doing a decent Mick Lynch impression."

Shows the good work Mick has done in one sense, as no Shadow Cab member is allowed in the picket lines. Looks like Sam has also been stitched up in his selection battle for the next general election so I think it's an opportunistic appearance to rally the left to support him as he appeals.

The videos keep coming. A lot less nonsense this time around.

he's got all the Today presenters totally shook, they know they'll end up looking foolish if they give him the usual treatment reserved for idiot Labour party guests.

really quite sad about thekafkadude. didn't realise he was from Hereford too.

yeah it's quite a jolt and that last post of his is heartbreakingly sad.

him being last seen at the Tesco in the centre of Hereford... that's one of the grimmest places I can think of.
