AIBU to think Burnham’s words may haunt his premiership?

[Greyrock79]

To think that Burnham’s words are going to haunt his premiership?

‘…national security can’t come at the expense of social security…’

Is giving someone what they voted for punishment? I would be quite happy if Labour gave our Tory area low taxes!

I’m asking you your view. Is that a no then?

Winkling a view from the PP, is not easy, I’ve discovered.

It's all games.

Yes, just like their beloved government - fiddling, whilst Rome burns.

We have a mayor squatting in Downing Street, with zero mandate and none of the skills for the job, aside from tinkering with bus fares…

If you look at the quote history @Switchnow already outlined her view - many posts ago, to be fair.

The PP is active on another thread, where he/she is a lot more circumspect/delphic.

Yes, but this flared up on this thread a few days ago with other people and some of us don't know all this history ... and I thought we weren't supposed to refer to other threads (I don't know why I'm quite new). Anyway, I learnt a new word with that earlier tussle - sealioning.....

I’ve told you my view on all the things you’ve asked about. I’ve also replied to the pp all the previous times they’ve asked the same question.

ooh a stalker, fun!

All three of you ganging up to complain I haven’t responded to the same question repeated several times? Ladies, please…

Erm no - I started both threads, which makes you the stalker.

And stalking is not a laughing matter, so, no it’s not fun for the victims.

I can’t work it out - one minute you’re complaining I haven’t responded, next replying to threads you started is stalking you?

No complaints here, and you brought up ‘stalking’, not me.

Not so funny now, is it?

I’m having fun, can’t speak for you.

What do you mean?

You said

Why did Burnham choose Israel for his biggest moment yet?
Votes. Muslim votes.

But how does that make sense if you accept many white British people (who are mostly not Muslim) also care about the West Bank?

No one seems to mention Hamas's genocidal intentions. Weird that, aint it?

Those votes are already well taken care of, since the free Palestine brigade are mainly on the left. In the bag those Labour votes are.

You asked 'Do you think only Muslims care about ethnic cleansing?'

General question. I gave you a general answer. I'm sure most people care about 'ethnic cleansing'.

Are you really unaware that people well know Hamas is a genocidal organisation? Funded by Iran who are also very open about their feelings about Israel? This isn’t a secret you’ve uncovered, it’s why Hamas are a designated terror organisation in the UK.

You have more faith than I in most people then. Plenty seem entirely unfussed about the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians in Gaza or the West Bank.

Oh I know it's not a secret. What astonishes me is why certain people don't give a shit about it. But this isn't the thread for that.

Then take it up with those certain people. Hamas don’t give a shit about their own people either so don’t pretend that everyone who cares about what’s happening to Palestinians is ignorant of that fact,
