Anyone fancy a discussion thread?

Rayner is fabulous. Infinitely better than aggressive Mordaunt. I quite like Flynn, but wish he would attack the conservatives as well as Labour.

I must be watching a different programme. Rayner is beyond appalling. She is the epitome of the Peter principle.

TBF to him - Labour are probably seen as their biggest competitors now in Scotland. So he will go for them.

I agree with what he had to say about migration being needed for a stronger economy.

Ooh pretending immigration is only ever positive...

That will go well.

The problem is really that even discuss it in this way

Farage will come across well regardless of what your political views are.

😂😂😂

LaPalmaLlama · 07/06/2024 20:04

Sorry to add I don’t agree with him but the fact they’re not interrupting him kind of implies they can’t disagree effectively.

Charlie2121 · 07/06/2024 20:04

LaPalmaLlama · 07/06/2024 20:03

why are they all arguing with each other but letting Nigel speak uninterrupted ? I hate to say it but he’s coming across best at the moment.

He’s head and shoulders above every single one of the others in terms of public speaking.

BastardisMendacem · 07/06/2024 20:04

Rightly raked by most - not you though. But woe betide anyone who wags their finger at her!

To be fair this is a thread about the debate tonight - during which the finger was wagged. If AR calls anyone scum tonight, we will rightly rake her (agin) for it!

I think your watching a different programme to the majority of the people on this thread.

It implies they’ve got some manners.

Windthebloodybobbinup · 07/06/2024 20:05

Shame no one is talking sensibly about immigration

CassieMaddox · 07/06/2024 20:05

Go Rhun. Nice!

Jellykat · 07/06/2024 20:05

Does Farage not realize a lot of lower skilled jobs like social care, are done by people from elsewhere in the world? We need immigration Farage..

Youve had 14 years Penny!!

I mean he really really is. It’s terrifying

Tracker1234 · 07/06/2024 20:05

Farage is a good speaker. Rayner seems out of her depth..

Cornettoninja · 07/06/2024 20:06

Fuck sake penny, stop trying to sell yourself by putting down labour. If we take that out of their campaign they’ve nothing left to say. Repeatedly.

Jellykat · 07/06/2024 20:06

Absolutely Ange!!!

Wasntmeanttobelikethis · 07/06/2024 20:07

Penny Thatcher is doing the Tories no favours; hope she loses her seat

Allthecatseverywhereallatonce · 07/06/2024 20:07

CassieMaddox · 07/06/2024 19:36

Why does Mordaunt have Thatcher hair??

Exactly what I said 🤣🤣. What a mess. Why do people have to rattle Nigel's cage. Rishi has taken a pounding again about D-day as he should, that may have been the biggest mistake he has made

She just put Penny in her place

Tracker1234 · 07/06/2024 20:07

I honestly don’t think having another border force will do it. Another state run dept pushing bits of paper around.

CassieMaddox · 07/06/2024 20:07

Tories have decided they need experts now.
Why is penny acting like Labour have been in charge?

MN is a left wing echo chamber at times.

Rayner is staggeringly unimpressive. It is a sad reflection on the UK that she’ll end up in a position of authority. It really is scraping the gutter. She wouldn’t last 5 minutes in a senior private sector role.

Blending123 · 07/06/2024 20:07

If I was answering that question I would make a big deal about the problem with GP's, house prices, and roads being about the tories being absolutely atrocious at governing the country!!
Those are the biggest problems in our country- you can't blame immigrants on that - blame the tories for ruining the country!!!

Kind of what Angela rayner is trying to say.

Westfacing · 07/06/2024 20:08

Penn has a bit of a cheek to say Labour have had 14 years to come up with a plan and failed!
