I’m starting to get the impression you don’t quite fully know what you’re talking about. Which, if true, would be a truly earth-shattering revelation.


You will have to work on those put downs!

The law as far as I am aware is the refugees should take asylum in the first safe country they come to.

So it's not France who should be taking them in any more than we should.

Once they have settled in that safe country they can apply to come and work in our country.

If they have the skills we want or want to work on the farm they will be welcome as far as I am concerned.

Incorrect - https://fullfact.org/immigration/refugees-first-safe-country/

After this country, British firms, British workers and British communities have profited from the levelling of countries like Syria, they’re entitled to a lot more than being allowed to “work on the farm”. Why does this country have such an aversion to taking any kind of responsibility for its actions?

What a surprise.
Another day of shame,another contract awarded without competitive tender.

https://www.theguardian.com/ed.....h-ofqual-on-a-levels


Firm linked to Gove and Cummings hired to work with Ofqual on A-levels
Exclusive: Public First was given communications contract without competitive tender


Still, could've been worse. good job Corbyn didn't get in  etc etc

It beggars belief it would be even worse under Labour but that sounds about right.

I honestly couldn’t comprehend how the situation could possibly be worse, so maybe one of the bootlickers could enlighten us?

Corruption absolutely rife and plain as day, worst death toll in Europe, worst economic performance in the G7, more NHS & care staff dead than members of the armed forces in the Iraq war...the list is endless, yet the PM has fuccked off on holiday!

The phrase ‘it could’ve been worse, imagine if the others had gotten in’ is literally the most pointless phrase and has zero substance or relevance.

It means absolutely nothing and adds nothing to a discussion because there absolutely no way it can be proven, either way.

We have what we have and quite frankly what we have is embarrassing. I know some die he’s Tory voters who are embarrassed and I know labour and Lib Dem voters who are embarrassed. We’re a laughing stock across Europe and now the levels of corruption and so forth are coming to the forefront.

‘Holiday was cancelled because it was unsafe...’ Bullshit. Old slobberchops went on holiday because he doesn’t actually  give a excrement and Tory advisors saw the issues it would cause so created a fictional reason to cut it short and got the PM back to his job. It’s all absolute balderdash and the only people being mugged off is us, the public.

Whatever side of the political spectrum you sit it’s impossible to see the monumental member up as anything else...

Every day, i ponder in disbelief that there can be enough stupid people in this world to look at the clown that is Boris and that other idiot Donald Gump, and think yeah, they are the people i want to be in charge of my future. Never have i seen two such talentless cretins hoodwink so many people.

And you honestly believe it would be worse under a Labour government? The Tory press did a great job at obfuscation.
