Finally, a major channel reports that BAME voters will have a huge impact on our politics going forward. Guess which party almost all of them vote for?

You though Rebecca Long-Bailey had the most annoying whine of a " talking at you voice ", then along comes Angela Rayner. It's not a Northern access bias, I have many friends in North Lincs / South Yorks and I love the way they speak. I think it's the whine in the delivery 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.

Beginning to think I won’t miss not knowing the future of Britain and the world, although I wouldn’t turn down a cheeky peak. I agree.....while I'd prefer the union to stay together the reality is that once Blair provided individual governments and created another political class the push would inevitably be towards union break up. The demand for a second referendum seems out of place with opinion polls in Scotland itself and appear to be very much a SNP driven device......Which considering they stated that the first one would be 'once in a lifetime' comes across pretty badly. That said, if Scotland voted for independence I believe that it should be honoured. However, would we be getting an excuse blocking culture of 'hard independence' or 'soft independence' descriptions....Would we be hearing 'but they didn't know what they were voting for'. No, let them go because self determination for people who have lived there for thousands of years is a right. We aren't the EU and some remainers.

Yep, let them go and have independence, under the EU. The matter of more conservative England is more uncertain. Maybe just the cities and some towns will be like New York before zero tolerance, but then the LA problems will never be solved. COYP
