To absolutely hate this government, and what they are doing to our country?

Strong words but is is how I feel at this point in time. All of them make me feel physically sick. The latest example -

No wonder Labour won't cut benefits. More than half of Burnham's MPs represent seats where claimant count is higher than their Commons majority

I don't and never had spitted anything, it's a disgusting habit.

Yet you seem to favour some more than others. Sad face.

What's your point? People on benefits are bad? Stupid? Shouldn't vote? You know you can work if you claim PIP, right? Please stop reading headlines from the Daily Mail too, you lose credibility.

Oh dear, when will they ever learn?

So you were perfectly happy that the recent Tory govt’s destroyed the economy twice?

Brexit followed by Truss? 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

You're talking about favouring posters on a serious thread about a government?

I'm not pretending to be subtle, or anything else

and as for beeline, I'm sure they will get over the wasp stings

Maybe they'll mistake a hornets nest for honeycomb and you can come to their rescue, wipe it all down with a union jack facecloth or some such

I think you’re missing a very big chunk of what happens with news and leaks. That’s ok but it does mean you’re missing what normally happens pre budget.

Nice choice of language there. Very telling.

It's like the outcry about immigrants coming over here for a luxurious life on benefits when we should be 'looking after our own', then when 'our own' need to apply for disability benefits, they are then labelled 'workshy scroungers' who are bankrupting the country.

I think you have misused the word empathy? Anyway, I deplore and condemn anti-semitism wherever it comes from. This is not sudden.

You deplore antisemitism. Good to know.

Print it out and frame it, then👌

These threads always start by bashing the government and pointing to some nonsense in the media - Times, Mail, Telegraph, Guardian. However this is really just a smoke screen along with the 'how observant of you'..'clearly feeling sensitive..' comments. Its simply pushing hate - asylum seekers, benefit claimants, people with disabilities - to unsettle, disrupt. Bread and butter for these guys. Glad posters are biting back.

"Serious thread about a government" 😂 😂

You did the favouring. "Cov". Sigh, sad face.

OK. So you aren't very good at spotting the difference between genuine/reasonable concerns and deliberately inflammatory comments/disinformation? The inability to distinguish between fact and manipulative rhetoric must make life difficult.

You must be missing all the attacks from pp who would never read those publications of course.

I know this government's a joke but at least try and take them seriously.

Why does this bother you anyway?

Sorry, so you’re actually promoting members of the public policing matters and using whatever force they like? It was assault plain and simple and those involved should be charged. She was exercising her legal right to protest and the audience members had no right to take matters into their own hands. Their actions constituted illegal and disproportionate violence!

So in your mind if a bunch of lefties had gone out and started dragging around all the masked ‘patriots’ at Dover by their hair and hitting them with walking sticks, this would have been perfectly fine because they were being disruptive and opted not to simply raise their hand and politely ask questions?? And where do we draw the line with the amount of force that can be used in these situations? Could lefties have pushed them into the sea for being disruptive? Would they have had it coming too? it’s a very slippery slope isn’t it!

I love a good eneducated thread. Bless you, OP. At least your grammar is holding you up...ish.

Are you aware that you can claim PIP -and- work? GASP. You will want to sit down for this next part; You can claim ESA and -work- at the same time. You can claim UC and...wait for it...you won't bloody believe it...WORK. UC deducts wages at 55p in every £1.

PIP is non -means tested: Those tax payers who work and claim PIP! Goddammit! Paying their own benefits. Will someone not think of the OP!?

Now, there are two elements of ESA. One element no longer exists because it is now called...drumroll 'UC'. This is where you might need a defibrillator, OP! You can work more hours on the new benefit system! Jesus Christ on a bike! you cry.

ESA Contributions (New Style ESA) - You can work 16 hours and under. However, this element is based on having worked full-time and having paid National Insurance Contributions; this is a non-means tested element.

Now, those who are claiming and not working? It's because they are:

A) Dying
B) Terminally Ill
C) Undergoing treatment for cancer, or some other progressive disease which requires serious treatment.
D) Completely paralysed
E) In a vegatative state
F) Suicidal
G) Completely lack the mobility to work because they are in chronic pain.

So, OP! Please do wipe your eyes and stop screaming at the dying.

Like clockwork those attacks were, as well.

Anyone spreading the great replacement theory is spreading hatred towards Jews.

I thought you would have known this.

Whilst ignoring the biggest threat to Jews.

There certainly has been a lot of pushback on this thread from a few new names as well as the more familiar ones. It is heartening.
