Haven't seen @PandoraSocks for a while and hope everything is okay. I know we sometimes disagree but I do enjoy reading your posts.

This bears repeating.

So much drama! If/when Starmer resigns all that will happen is we get a new Labour PM. So what?🤷‍♀️ It happened four times under the Tories.

And maybe some should be careful what they wish for, because a new PM might improve things for Labour. Isn't that the whole point of the exercise?

I thought I'd share this here. Goiing to jail was a positive for one of the Southport rioters. I hope she manages to stay on the right track.

No, I do not believe I am in any way superior to other posters - why do you suggest so? All opinions are equal.

Do you believe that Starmer could/should survive the Mandelson saga?

They just come to disrupt, plop, 'keep us on our toes' @BIWI The fact that they namechange every thread tells us that,

They are on the LiW threads. Thats why they have to name change on these threads.

It’s a weird version of pulling hair and running away. Quite how anyone can be arsed to patrol these threads I have no idea. I don’t know why it bothers them so much.
Obsessed.

They do it for the 'likes'

The sad little boast about "likes" was rather amusing.

….and, back to Starmer….

Desperate for attention.

Yep

@Notonthestairs

Also yep.

@TemperanceWest
Just ignore, for crying out loud.
You are doing exactly what is required and expected of you. Stop feeding

Triple yep.

<goes back to sitting on hands>

I use only one name, and I am not on the ‘LiW’ thread - whatever that is.

GUARDIAN.

Starmer could have been told about Mandelson’s vetting failure, claims No 10 with release of briefing paper – UK politics live

Downing Street takes unusual step of releasing document ahead of PM’s Commons showdown over Mandelson scandal

Here you go @Troika71:

Don't bother, they know

I'd take BIWI's advice if I were pp. Names can't hide posting styles.

Reform are announcing today that they would review and retrospectively strip asylum status from hundreds of thousands of people who are making their lives in the UK. Notable that the Conservative response to the plan seem to effectively endorse it.

I can't even be arsed to ask where they are going to deport them to.
Or why they've changed their minds over applying it retrospectively.
Notable though that they are having to compete with each other how far they will go. All grist for Lowe's mill.

"From a Reform point of view, they already face the electoral challenge of c. 50% of voters who would vote however necessary to keep Nigel Farage out of No 10. I've not seen a single Reform policy in recent months which might make some of those people go, 'Well OK, maybe I'd give them a chance.' "

This comment is right on the money. Keep going Farage. It will make decent people even more focused on keeping you out of No. 10, you repulsive arsewipe.

They will revive the race colour chart (©Priti Patel)

white->stay
light brown->"India"
dark brown->"Pakistan"
Black->"Africa"

We are privileged to watch electoral hysteresis at work.

Appealing to their moronic voters, as in the section that wants and believes this would ever happen. No comment on how large that section of their voters may be.

It is however abhorrent both that they’re ‘planning’ this and equally so their supporters want this.

Why is some of our society so horrible - ugh - and saddened.

Good
