Poots elected leader of the DUP, which means there is now a First Minister of nation of the UK who doesn't believe in evolution and thinks the Earth was created in 4000BC. And we sneer at the US?

Are Animated Dads Getting Hotter? (Tom D.), Friday, 14 May 2021 16:30 (two years ago) link

the first very important question Poots should be asked is: what is his position on hollow earth theory

A plan for long-term investment, to halve child poverty, to deliver a fairer tax system, and to build a more resilient and greener economy.

I love the way the most unambiguously positive thing Kieth can offer right now is 50% less malnourished children đź‘Źđź‘Źđź‘Ź

albeit in horrible bullshit terms like "plans" and "long-term investments". Can't wait till this guy dies.

Extremely here for kieth suing tim shipman into bankruptcy tho, wd buy him a pint for that (and maybe a can of polish lager for shippers lol)

just to repeat myself "child poverty" is a term of unmitigated melt evil

Rachel Reeves to consult Joe Biden’s team on Labour’s economic offer. Shadow chancellor will discuss how party can appeal to blue-collar voters and urban graduates

If she really needs to talk to Biden staff for ideas then she's in the wrong fucking job. "blue-collar voters" maybe they mean Chelsea fans? I will boldly predict More Racism and other cool ways of obfuscating the messaging around austerity

20+ points behind after this has aired. The Maybot parallels with Kieth are the more exposure he get's the less people like him.

the novelty of watching a Piers Moron show where he isn't even the biggest cunt in the studio will wear off as soon as Kieth starts talking

Morgan just announced "Full-Out War on Woke".

the pinefox, Saturday, 15 May 2021 10:00 (two years ago) link

What does Morgan suggest this War on Woke should comprise of?

It reminds me of a conversation I had with my right wing cousin a while ago. He suggested we needed to do something about excessive wokeness, that we needed to do something to this.

Instead of countering I said I think you may be right, what do you think we should do?

He had nothing, not a single suggestion

anvil, Saturday, 15 May 2021 10:07 (two years ago) link

I suspect Morgan would have plenty of suggestions, fortunately I'm unlikely to ever find out what they are

Starmer is turning into Theresa May before our eyes.

I bet Mandelson (talking to him for the first time since 2018 lol) has told him he's only half fash and that just isn't good enough to get on the wavelength of "red wall" voters.

if I was the LOTO I simply wouldn't take advice from a man who was in Epstein's black book and also had a hand on the 2009 disaster, while allegedly he was "more distracted with finishing his memoir than the election campaign".

calzino, Saturday, 15 May 2021 11:48 (two years ago) link

weird how ppl talk about culture war as if it's an optional surface level distraction & doesn't have deep roots in the things they claim we should be focusing on instead. even still starmer has had nothing but culture war shit going for him but apparently it only counts if it's woke

I still can't get over the halving child poverty thing it's like a parody of the mundane horror of centrism

@CAATuk have a really useful resource on their website - a database that shows which arms companies have premises near you. You can filter results by destination.

For instance, here are Bristol companies exporting weapons to Israel.

Latest Opinium poll spells post election trouble for Labour

* Voting intention shows 13 point Tory lead
* Con 44% vs Lab 31%
* Johnson has 17 point lead over Starmer as best prime minister
* A third (33%) of 2019 Labour voters want Starmer to resign

Imagine if the pandemic response had been anything other than haphazard shite! Actually it probably would have lost them votes, this is the UK England we're talking about.

remind me not to read the comments on that one (Matt #2), Saturday, 15 May 2021 19:58 (two years ago) link

this goes much deeper than the pandemic response, he's offered next to nothing and most people have heard his voice by now.

calzino, Saturday, 15 May 2021 20:10 (two years ago) link

I understand that, but I can't perceive a sit where Starmer earns votes. Xpost

Mark G, Saturday, 15 May 2021 20:10 (two years ago) link

there are never going to be enough creepazoid Fabians, disloyal Tory voters, undiscerning melts, culturally working-class Workington knuckle scrapers .. whatever you want to call them, who will coalesce in great numbers around Kieth rather than reluctantly vote for Tories again. I feel like I've graduated into a polling guru now, because I knew this would happen 18 months ago.

Ensuring the next manifesto will be dead on arrival

It is exceptionally badass that so many MPs and the commentariat (not Sienna herself) absolutely approve of Starmer openly lying to the people who made him leader, then intentionally screwing them over. I think it’s very clarifying about their views, priorities and principles. pic.twitter.com/0joigzlkuv
