What on earth is going on outside the university where the live debate is taking place? Sounds pretty crazy!

Did I just hear some kind of bang?

Theordinary · 26/06/2024 20:29

Yes, we heard that!

It's doing my head in. As a tinnitus sufferer, it's distracting and massively annoying.

MeinKraft · 26/06/2024 20:35

Gone quiet now but it sounded like the cats in my garden fighting. What are they protesting about!!

On another note, Sunak looks defeated. He knows he's done.

soundsys · 26/06/2024 20:35

Ha I know it was shambolic.

Free Palestine. Sick of bloody protests about this

Keir has mentioned he ran the CPS, take a shot!

Next one when he tells us his dad was a toolmaker

He's already said that!

Hold a debate on a Uni campus, expect Free Palestine protests..

HeBeaverandSheBeaver · 26/06/2024 20:42

Pointless protest. What can govt do realistically. Advise the war stops to the Israeli govt. That's about it.

yeah and Rushi has banged on about Rwanda and I'm sure he'll mention his mum worked for the NHS - not sure what your point is

As to the protests - we live in a democracy - people are allowed to protest

soundsys · 26/06/2024 20:43

Oh is that what the protest is about? Can't really hear the details!

He did and he was. What’s your point?

MeinKraft · 26/06/2024 20:44

@ghostyslovesheets I like Keir and want Labour to win! It's just funny the way they have stock phrases. Well Rishi's aren't actually funny because they're outrageous lies that damage the country but anyway.

I expect the Palestinian people are rather more sick of being murdered.

Too late!

I don't mind him and I do wish he'd drop the line - but fuck me Rushi banging on about immigration while also banging on about 'negotiating with the Taliban to take people back' - which is it - people fleeing the Taliban OR illegal people being sent to Rwanda - fuck me - if you are fleeing the Taliban surely your asylum claim is valid and we let you stay! He's such an ass hat - banging on about putting 'illegals' on the plane while also accepting they are legitimate asylum seekers! Come on Keir hold him to his bullshit

I'm sure you are. Genocide clearly doesn't bother you then does it

Theordinary · 26/06/2024 20:50

Well I'm just glad its quiet outside now. It was so hard to concentrate on what they're saying!

I actually like this presenter

She’s keeping them to the question

MrsSkylerWhite · 26/06/2024 20:52

Haven’t seen it yet.

Is that correct? Sunak seriously suggested negotiating with the Taliban to send back people who fled theTaliban?

WTF is wrong with him?

No - he was mocking Starmer. Starmer said he was going to "process" immigrants.

He said Labour's answer was to negotiate with the Taliban - he said most people where coming from Iran, Syria and Afghanistan - so acknowledged that these where brutal regimes - then added that he will send all these legitimate asylum seekers to Rwanda - saying he would send 50,000! It's such twattery

What a stupid thing to say re the Taliban! Starmer should have pointed out the numbers of people that Rwanda have agreed to take- a miniscule amount- for a hefty chunk of money!
