You could see it in his face.

Classic.

Yep, we are being lined up for a war with Russia.

We aren't really a democracy.

You can only hope that we aren't dragged in before Trump gets in....maybe that's their plan, to start the war before he gets into office and thus have him committed.

Personally I hold the Nato leadership in contempt as much I do with the EU....but Nato's current leadership is dangerous and they put us in danger here.

I want nothing to do with their wars, Putin, Zelensky and Nato can feck off.

Farage is too smart for them and their producers feeding the questions

 


Responsibility Deficit Disorder is a medical condition. Symptoms include inability to be corrected when wrong, false sense of superiority, desire to share personal info no else cares about, general hubris. It's a medical issue rather than pure arrogance.

The west isn’t “in” Ukraine! It is providing support to a relatively small country which has been invaded by a much bigger neighbour, who are solely responsible for causing all the death and destruction. Without that support the death and destruction could easily have been even worse and threatening to spread further.

Just like we're supporting Yemen.

We aren’t. We are attacking the rebels who are attacking shipping, but are not involved in the war that their government is fighting, with Saudi support, against them. The rebels are another Iranian proxy, just like Hamas and Hezbollah.

There’s a surprise. Spiked the online magazine that routinely defends far right figures, like Katie Hopkins, defends Farage.

By failing to moderate his language Farage handed Putin golden propaganda on a plate.

He may not be a signed up apologist but he is as harmful.

That's the way. First line of defence is to attack the source.

If it’s relevant then it’s necessary. They defended against something that wasn’t being suggested. Not by me at least!

Rubbish.
Boris Johnson said virtually the same thing in 2016.

You are afraid of Farage. He tells the truths that you always try to obscure.

I used to like watching Daily Politics whilst having my lunch but I've got fed up with the way that they are trying to keep matters like the so called betting scandal in the public eye by bringing it up every day.

Every time Jo Coburn mentions betting I immediately switch to GB News as they seem to have more of an idea on what the public want to hear about just before a General Election

I never watch the mainstream channels for news. They are a joke.

Given the awards GB News wins years running, perhaps the definition of 'mainstream' will have to be broadened.

Personally I'm totally sick of hearing the phrases 'smash the gangs', 'fully costed, fully funded', 'Tory chaos', 'crashed the economy', 'my father was a toolmaker' and just for balance, 'no plan'.

I've already voted. Bring it on.

Afraid of Farage? Don’t be ridiculous!

I am appalled by the growth of populism and Farage is just its face in our country. He is typical of the genre, offering visions of impractical solutions to intractable problems from a position in which he has never once had to deliver anything. He is the ultimate vender of green grass politics. His biggest failure being Brexit, the disaster it has become now conveniently blamed on others.

That the right, and the left, need to have their voices heard is something I agree with. So I not in the least afraid of him. I want to see his ideas exposed and shredded by better arguments.

I, like many I think, don’t pay any attention at all to election broadcasts, news, manifestos or anything else. It’s all bs. Window dressing which will be thrown away next Friday. We know we will get a Labour government, who will inherit an impossible situation but for which they will get the blame in short order.

This GE is done and dusted. It’s what happens to the Tories in the next 5 years that’s really important.

Labour have continually insisted that their plans are fully costed without needing any tax rises yet when a journalist asks them "what about inheritance tax or capital gains tax or some other tax the Labour man waffles on about not having to raise income tax, NIC or vat yet not one journalist has asked the question and insisted on a yes or no answer

Have noticed the same, in real “speak” they will raise those you mentioned and introduce tax on pensions. Don’t rule out fuel duty rises as well.

The BBC Olympics line up is almost all female - even when you take the specialist guests into account.
It is like a female love in for goodness sake - no nod to men at all really.
And Fred Sirieix is presenting - he is a f***ing Maitre D'Hotel not a sports presenter/analyst!
There are some amazing ex female athletes whose views I respect and enjoy listening to - Denise Lewis, Ennis Hill etc. but this is political woke nonsense gone mad and will likely stop me watching a lot of it now.
I have to pay tax for this s*** - defund the bloody awful BBC as soon as possible please.
