Quote: Alfred J Kipper @ 10th February 2025, 8:58 AMSorry but you keep changing what I've posted. I didn't mention anything about his behaviour. I said or meant that they are partly to blame for the ensuing 'chaos' he's accused of causing, following his executive decisions and actions. All hell breaks loose as they accuse him of being the devil incarnate, before they even look at the context of why they're being done.
What chaos have the opposition been responsible for? Certainly not attempting to mount a violent insurrection anyway...
Quote: Alfred J Kipper @ 10th February 2025, 7:09 AMI'll doubt you'll get much of a response as usual, he's not a Tory or Reform or Republican.
But as you've mentioned it I'll mention another Labour MP expenses claim that's being investigated by the police. And Rayner refusing to confirm if she said her leader "couldn't run a bath", just as he's been accused of being an HR manager rather than a leader by his own chosen chief of staff. Then a revelation that Starmer tried to stop the BBC revealing what the previous one earned.
That's apart from the nine postponed elections to stop Reform winning their council seats, or the continued efforts, already failed once, to make criticising Islam a crime while it's fine to keep saying what you want about Christianity and other religions. Or the new law to make free schools and academies follow their woke curriculum, for which Phillipson's rightly been branded a Marxist. Or the soon to happen lowering of the age to 16 to gerrymander more labour votes from supposed gullible teenagers.
Maybe they're just trying to take the heat of Reeves for killing business and crashing the economy, eh?
On top of all that I see there's new revelations about Starmer further breaking Covid restrictions when meeting with his voice coach on Christmas Eve 2020. Prior to his notorious drinks "do" with Angela Rayner in Durham in April 2021.
Quote: Alfred J Kipper @ 9th February 2025, 11:08 PMYes that was a keyboard malfunction, I've given it a good thrashing. I was trying to say about 70% of illegal unregistered immigrants here are thought to be involved in crime, just to get by. Who mentioned prison? There's a huge amount of crime that goes unpunished. If you included tax evasion, it's probably higher.
New survey out last month said nearly half a million undocumented illegal immigrants are living in London, 60% of the estimated 1 million illegal immigrants in Britain, but some experts believe both figures are underestimated. Telegraph 22ndJan.
That's some faulty keyboard.
If you type in "70% of illegal immigrants are thought to be involved in crime" and it comes out as " About 70% of serious crime in UK overall I believe is caused by immigrants." then it need chucking out and replacing.
I mentioned the prison figures because, unlike your figures, they are reliable and documented.
And I did so to point out the unlikelihood of your 70% figure being accurate.
Also, the "half-million illegal immigrants in London" figure (or, "1 in 12" as the Right-wing press would have us believe) has been seriously de-bunked.

Yep right wing lunatics go mob handed storming the capital beating up cops and staff and people end up dead - then trump let's them all out of jail scot free claiming they are heroes
And it's the left that are the ones causing chaos?
Fk me...
🤪🤪🤪
I wonder if the daily Mail will bother to report this today?
UK immigration enforcement teams made over 600 arrests in January, a 73 percent increase on the same period a year ago, as part of the new Labour government's plan to tackle undocumented migration and people smuggling gangs, officials said on Monday.
Since the government came to office, enforced returns are up 24% compared to the same 12 months prior and Britain's streets have been made safer with the removal of 2,580 foreign criminals - a 23% increase on last year.  
Nah

Prior to the one that turned out to be nothing, you mean?
Not exactly Partygate, is it?

Burnley MP Oliver Ryan now.
What happened to the squeaky clean government we were promised?
He is not a member of the government.

I'll settle for 'cleaner'.
Cleaner than some reform candidates ...
Mr Lomas reportedly said black people should "get off [their] lazy arses" and stop acting "like savages"
Mr Lilley reportedly described people arriving on small boats as "scum" in a social media post, adding: "I hope your family get robbed, beaten or attacked."

That's the best defence you can come up with?
He's a member of the governing party.
Only a fool would expect a large political party to consist of exclusively 100% absolute saints and paragons of virtue
All parties have always had bad apples - and always will have
At least Labour's leader hasn't knowingly lied to the Houses of Parliament and got a police caution for breaking the law
At least Labours deputy chairman didn't get suspended for islamaphobic and racist comments
Labour may have a couple of idiots - the odds of them not would be astronomical- but compared to the tories and reform- they are a veritable bunch of saints
I could spend half an hour posting offensive drivel Boris Johnson got away with spouting for year after year
And Labour didn't accept millions of pounds in donations from a man that made grossly offensive and racist comments about Diane Abbot - unlike some other party
Best of a bad lot then.
I'm changing allegiances.
