"We have First rather than Prime Ministers..." We had 14 years of Tory politicians that were incompetent, will most likely be proven to be corrupt in some cases and a buffoon , followed by another unsuitable foil for the job that almost broke the economy in less than 6 weeks, then the City put Rishi in to steady the ship and he failed spectacularly as he has no charisma, meanwhile the Mones were taking their cut got too greedy and got caught, Cummings and the eye test, the PPI billions wasted and the Downing Street parties while ordinary people could not attend their loved ones funerals. The UK electorate had enough and booted you useless incompetent Tories to the kerb. Now you are facing the spectre of the Musk puppet Farage and all the undesirables of the right of centre eejits that will follow him and knock Kemi on her lovely ass. It's hardly the time to crow over the initial errors and poor PR of the new government if you are a true Conservative from the middle. Scottish independence may not be the dead 🦆 we think. Sous Alba.

Mx ". Highly amusing even if grossly imaginative Actually Rishi in just 6 months started to reduce unemployment. Reduced interest rates, increased growth and steadied energy prices. All without further tax increases, and not take Ng money off the elderly and vulnerable and reduced to cave in to Union bosses hiked up demands. The only thing Starmer has reduced is any chance of reducing illegalnimmigrants | |||

Fact - Mone and her ilk caught and will face the long arm of the law and others of your party will too.

Remember a whole local party executive somewhere quit when he was elected leader as he wasn't left-wing enough. Made no difference whatsoever. If ministers start quitting then that would be a different story but there is no sign of that happening yet. | |||

"Hardly on the same scale as the mass resignations that played their part in Spaffo's demise. Yet it's hard to see Starmer still being PM come the next election. The damage has been done and the toxic culture isn't going away. Sustained economic growth might not even be enough." "Sustained economic growth!" you'll be lucky, economic forecasters are expecting inflation to return and a recession during this year. | |||

"For those posting the Tories caused the problems in the NHS, I suggeest you google it and you will find that back in 1999, whilst Labour was in power, their was a major crisis with waiting times. 153,000 people had waited 26 weeks or more for a first consultation for example. It was debated in parliment, all the documents are there online to read. In 1999, I tore the cartilage in my knee, I had to wait two years for an operation and in all that time, struggled to walk. In 2017, NHS bosses feared a return back to 1999. Basically the NHS crisis is not soley the Tories fault, Labour is at fault themselves."

I dont for one minute think they know how to run a country in terms of economic growth etc, but for me, we need to get the country back together from the ground up. Stop immigration Stop sending money abroad that doesn't make sense Stop the net zero bullshit Stop pandering to Global Elitists Start empowering the police to do their jobs, and if they can't do it then deploy the army Only 1 man coming close to doing any 1 of those things" Reform is pandering to global elites though. their entire thing is pandering to an international class of capitalists who don't give a damn about you.

Can you describe in a bit more detail how this Coup D'Etat happened?🤔" More of what is known as a Palace Coup rather than a Coup d'Etat. Staged behind closed doors by MP, party grandees and officials. The MPs had always favoured Sunak. I suspect there was a bit of 'horse trading' in their final ballot to keep Penny Mordaunt off the final ballot that went out to party members, hoping Sunak would stand a better chance of winning against Liz Truss. So once Ms Truss was PM she did not have the parliamentary party solidly behind her, and when things started to go wrong in the City after the budget she orchestrated, she more or less go told to go. | |||

"I've seen many elections. This is the first one that I've known where, if there was another election after 6 months, it's likely that the result would be reversed." I'm not convinced the Tories would win. I don't think anyone really likes them again. I think the result would be massive apathy and a turnout of around 30-40%. I guess that would potentially lead to a Tory landslide. | |||

What's happened since has shocked everyone. Your in cuckoo land " The countries economy is in a very poor state, redressing that is a slow and painful process. Investors require confidence in the UK and this can be created over time, the investment will follow and then there may be small tangible benefits. But frankly, so much is broken (eg cancer care) that not everything will move into the sunny uplands | |||

"I've seen many elections. This is the first one that I've known where, if there was another election after 6 months, it's likely that the result would be reversed." One thing I think you can guarantee is that there wont be another election. Labour have got a vast majority in the commons and they are not going to risk sacrificing that before they need to. So we are talking 2029 before we go to the polls. Even if there was an election called this Spring Labour would probably win it with a lower turn-out, a lower percentage of the votes cast and a smaller majority in the Commons. | |||

"And thirdly let’s discuss something a little lighter in nature such as King Charles and his inordinate amount of pedophile friends I don't believe he has any 'paedophile friends', wtf are you on about?" I’m referencing his close relations obviously to relatives, to prominent bishops, DJ’s, pardons for members of parliament (both sides). The lack of accountability when being made to provide witness statements to high court. You can argue that he would not have known or the probability of coming into contact with so many convicted and accused could be due to his networking and position but we are an average of the company we keep. Oh and I’m not suggesting that he is btw. It’s all documented and takes a quick Google my man. | |||

"The problems are perfectly illustrated by the posts in this thread. Politics and opinions are too polarised and on almost all cases everyone is either insulting the other or talking past the other. No one is listening to the other or considering the others point of view and then constructively debating the point. Immigration is a case in point. The small boat arrivals have been whipped up into a major point but the sheer number of other immigration hardly rates a mention. Less than 5% of immigration is from small boat crossing, 95% from issued visas. Yet the vast majority of press coverage is about the effect of small boat migration. Why is that? Because it suits an agenda. Much of the opinion is formed by the press, who are unelected and have their own agendas with vested interests."  | |||

As you say Wild, Labour's huge majority means that we all have to endure a rough and bumpy ride until '29! However, hypothetically if there was a Spring election, I can see Labour getting decimated, Reform gaining a huge number of seats, but none of the main parties gaining an overall majority, but the solution being that Reform and the Conservatives form a coalition. With Starmer and Rayner's performance, Labour are very much out of favour, the Conservatives are still less than widely popular, Farage and Reform seem to be offering what many are asking for, although there is still widespread uncertainty about them and what they are all about. | |||

"We have First rather than Prime Ministers... We had 14 years of Tory politicians that were incompetent, will most likely be proven to be corrupt in some cases and a buffoon , followed by another unsuitable foil for the job that almost broke the economy in less than 6 weeks, then the City put Rishi in to steady the ship and he failed spectacularly as he has no charisma, meanwhile the Mones were taking their cut got too greedy and got caught, Cummings and the eye test, the PPI billions wasted and the Downing Street parties while ordinary people could not attend their loved ones funerals. The UK electorate had enough and booted you useless incompetent Tories to the kerb. Now you are facing the spectre of the Musk puppet Farage and all the undesirables of the right of centre eejits that will follow him and knock Kemi on her lovely ass. It's hardly the time to crow over the initial errors and poor PR of the new government if you are a true Conservative from the middle. Scottish independence may not be the dead 🦆 we think. Sous Alba. Mx . Highly amusing even if grossly imaginative Actually Rishi in just 6 months started to reduce unemployment. Reduced interest rates, increased growth and steadied energy prices. All without further tax increases, and not take Ng money off the elderly and vulnerable and reduced to cave in to Union bosses hiked up demands. The only thing Starmer has reduced is any chance of reducing illegalnimmigrants"That is all completely untrue. | |||

"The end of Starmer that is. Twenty councillors have quit Labour in protest at the party's direction under Sir Keir Starmer. Er, um, he has a majority of 170+ MPs in Parliament. He has 4 1/2 years to show what he can do. God help us That's assuming Starmer will last the 4.5 year course which seems increasingly unlikely as his once loyal supporters are now beginning to see through his erroneous performance and are turning against him! The tide is turning and will wash Starmer back out to sea where he can greet his friends attempting to gain illegal entry through our shores! What is it with you lot and people seeking refuge? The numbers are tiny compared with our EU neighbours, they make not a jot of difference, they’re not nicking our jobs or houses or putting the NHS on its knees. These are all policy decisions by Gov’t. FFS see thru the boat people smokescreen and start asking politicians why they’re not taxing the very wealthy, why they allow huge corporations to avoid paying their tax burden and why they keep accepting gifts (bribes) of sports and music tickets worth £thousands when they’re extremely well remunerated. Perhaps also ask why we spend upwards of half a billion on keeping one family in a life of luxury or why we have a second chamber (only beaten in numbers by China) packed with cronies getting paid £300+ to turn up, sit and listen for 30 mins, have a massively subsidised slap up lunch and then go home. No one on the right is interested in the truth,or in the richest man in the world buying his way to power in the UK. They just want to go on with the fabricated nonsense that the Conservatives did not make a huge mess of the economy, their own party and the country over 14 incompetent years and that the UK electorate said enough is enough and booted them out.

"Hardly on the same scale as the mass resignations that played their part in Spaffo's demise. Yet it's hard to see Starmer still being PM come the next election. The damage has been done and the toxic culture isn't going away. Sustained economic growth might not even be enough.. Economic growth? Inflation up, unemployment up national debt up illegal immigrants up, inflation up. Errrr economy growth?????? Lol ... ... Errr, National debt under the tories... 🤣🤣 They did give millions away in covid for us to stay home,millions to off det our fuel bills and a fucking ukraine war . Now i know they ended up being a shit show with the so xalled black hoke but imagine the bkack hole if this lot had to govern through that . No one moaded when being paid to stay hone and getting money for fuel . There had to be a coniquence surely we knew that " | |||

"1215 the Foundations of democracy where laid in this great land and in 2025 some eejits think musk will circumvent it with a media company and uncle Nigel. Please stop clutching your pearls like a frightened maiden aunt at a chippingdale night and give your head a wobble" .... ... A majestic rhetorical flourish,lol. Nonetheless it completely overlooks the influence of social media. Last summer showed the power of the screen in impacting upon everyday life. Re wobbling practice what is preached. | |||

"One thing in Starmers favour is the utterly lightweight leader the Tories have in Badenoch. She has made little impact so far and it's hard to see that changing anytime soon." Sadly with the two main parties having such lacklustre leaders they are playing right into the hands of the odious Farage. | |||

"The problems are perfectly illustrated by the posts in this thread. Politics and opinions are too polarised and on almost all cases everyone is either insulting the other or talking past the other. No one is listening to the other or considering the others point of view and then constructively debating the point. Immigration is a case in point. The small boat arrivals have been whipped up into a major point but the sheer number of other immigration hardly rates a mention. Less than 5% of immigration is from small boat crossing, 95% from issued visas. Yet the vast majority of press coverage is about the effect of small boat migration. Why is that? Because it suits an agenda. Much of the opinion is formed by the press, who are unelected and have their own agendas with vested interests. Maybe because it's illegal? 34000 plus came into the country illegally that's 34000 people we know nothing about. ... The 34,000 include those who are seeking asylum which isn't an illegal act. The figure includes people with documents. They have made the journey across the channel according to Home Office data. Yes, there are males-often in their 20's/30's- without documents but it utterly misleading to say theres 34,000 people who could be anyone from anywhere. And the more such myths take hold, the less likely rational debate becomes. " Sorry that 34000 is government numbers, are you saying the government is lying? | |||

Sadly with the two main parties having such lacklustre leaders they are playing right into the hands of the odious Farage." Which brings us back nicely to the point of this thread, the above political landscape is ripe for exploitation by Nige and Kekius Maximus, if people are hoodwinked by these odious extremists where no compromise is possible and it solely becomes a one sided system then Democratic principles will not be eroded they will be lost.
