It’s really quite incredible how an entire nation has been so comprehensively gaslit Not incredible at all when you think about who owns the majority of the print media and their political persuasion.

Also they've positioned it as any criticism of them is unpatriotic. You seen it with Covid, any criticisms of how they handled it early on where met with "I'm incredibly proud of how our NHS has handled this". And idiots just lap it up.
No wonder we're the laughing stock of the world.

Yep, in the few rare occasions that Labour pointing out the government's failings gets some cut through, they're accused of making it hard for the government. They're not supposed to agree with them FFS!

The shortages are all British made and British owned, and that’s something we can be incredibly proud of.

I remember when cash for questions was a big scandal, now it’s cash for informal meetings where you can influence and/or get information directly from ministers.
It’s no different to the American system with lobbying but neither should be allowed.

I'm now scared when my Mrs takes the dog for a walk at night. Not happy with her going out on her own so always go as well. Never used to feel like this. Dread to think what women feel like when out on their own at night.

Yeah, my missus has a ten minute walk home from work and is already planning which route to take now that the nights are drawing in, which to me was a pretty alien idea until we actually stopped and discussed it. I'm pretty disgusted at myself for just taking everything for granted all along when women have this sort of stuff constantly going through their heads.

To be honest, even as a bloke I'm very concerned about the drawing in of the night and do change the routes I take in winter vs summer.

There were two or three daylight attacks on the country paths near mine in quick succession back when Mrs Maybe was on maternity leave. She doesn’t really read the local news so I was pretty concerned when a colleague told me as those are the paths we’d take Baby Maybe on his nap walks.

Judging by Boris’s interview yesterday and multimillionaire Rishi Sunak this morning, the Tories are well and truly back in nasty party mode.

That Marr interview yesterday was a total car crash. You can see why they try and keep him away from things like that.

Sturgeon gets acres of abuse when performing well.... Boris banging on about creating highly skilled, highly paid jobs - we don't need that, we have a surplus of low skilled jobs that need filling. Well not low skilled, but not jobs that UK people want to do... Today I heard a Tory on the radio saying they were focussing on job creation to offset the cut in UC. I thought we had too many jobs..... What do they have to do to lose the support of England?

What's the point of getting rid of Boris? So they can wheel in the next jingoistic lying twat. The entire party is fucking poison.

He appeals to morons of all types, and uses his poshboy Just William cuntery to disguise everything else, in a way the rest of the current crop couldn't, largely, and then sells shit like Brexit to the fucking morons that listen to him.
