  1. Mick giving grown-up advice to the inept chancellor. Hopefully she will listen to him and to the patriotic millionaires, also the Mile End Road economists.

  2. Appropriate that the first guy had a cap to doff.

  3. Honest Bob crowing about enforcement visits while the Home Office backlog exceeds 166000. The word "illegal" in the title should be associated with the third word Bill and not the second word Migration. Thankfully Yvette Cooper put the poor wazzock out of his misery. Skewered!!!

  4. With two looking distinctly uncomfortable at one point.

  5. Totally agree. Neoliberalism is key. It has succeeded only in the sense that it has persuaded the poor to vote for the rich to have more. We need fundamental change.

  6. Stay awake while you replay the video and you'll find out.

  7. Their treatment of pensioners and WASPI women has been far from good. The rest? A combination of poor communication and a right wing oligarch media. Impose Leveson; stop corporate lobbying and cap political donations. Do something to rebuild some faith in politics.

  8. Learning lessons is no excuse for ignoring the bleeding obvious.

  9.  @stephenobrien5909  wtf! You think that excuses Johnson? Get real

  10. Great speech and about time someone said it in parliament. If in doubt, search the tools of fascism and see how many this government uses. This has been clear to me for a few years and it's refreshing to hear an MP stand up and say it. Look out for the reports of her speech in the mainstream medIa lol (don't hold your breath though.)

  11.  @derekharrison1582  Yes. Many people vote Tory through habit. I could explain in detail how their track record is far worse than Labour, but a good friend once applied a simple test: have you been better off under Labour or Tory governments? I know the answer for the vast majority and could give statistics to back it up.

  12.  @GOD-OF-ALL-NO1  Don't quite see the relevance of your futile whataboutery. I recommend more meditation to stimulate critical thinking.

  13. ​ @HandleTier  That's a strange pseudonym account, spouting mindless shite. Evidence needed.

  14. Finally, something positive and useful from this government - albeit late. Can't escape the irony of a slimeball politician calling out cowboy builders. Lol.

  15.  @liamr194  Pay attention, Liam. If you can't see the evidence and work it out, don't bother voting.

  16.  @liamr194  don't you recognise a suggestion, Liam? Not dictatorship - you have the right to vote of course. Read the economic forecasts from government and other independent economic bodies and you will see that we are expected to become the poor man of Europe again. Largely because of getting Brexit half-done badly. As for Tory austerity - income in real terms has fallen over the last twelve years.

  17.  @andyforshaw8489  if it's such a "well known fact," you will have no problem citing evidence.

  18. I would assess Braverman as sociopathic and possibly vacuous.

  19.  @Gerhardium  Yes. The free marketeers have a selective memory about what Adam Smith said.

  20. ​ @aituk  publicly funded in many other countries, to achieve consistency.

  21. Apparently the remainder that wasn't spaffed on faulty PPE or dodgy contracts is going into the Tory kitty to make up for lost oligarch funding.

  22. A little cowardly spiv alternating between arrogance, squirming, evading and planning his regular absence when at risk of being held to account.

  23. It would certainly be an important step towards a real working democracy. Unfortunately, in PMQs there is an obligation solely to RESPOND, which is not the same as giving an answer. Parliament should be dragged into the 21st century.

  24. If she has so much information, why not list the schools affected? Why has this happened at the last minute?

  25.  @lostintranslation1957  REALLY!!! If you can't see the difference in scale, apply critical thinking instead of whataboutery.

  26.  @adistraction2668  BOLD! In taking more from the poorest for the benefit of the richest. Trickle down has failed. Inequality stifles growth.

  27. Are they hoping for an invitation?

  28. Dowden missed all of the lessons on economics, just attending the ones on waffle and crappy jokes. Not supported by Martin Lewis; suggested and campaigned for by Martin Lewis. Hunt virtually begged Martin for ideas on his programme last night. A clueless government in meltdown.

  29. The Good Law Project has successfully challenged the dodgy Tory VIP lane. At the start of the pandemic we refused the help of the EU, so the Tories could favour their mates. What a sham. Enough is enough.

  30. If you can't spot the difference, don't show yourself up by commenting.

  31. ​ @pancakeslayer101  hence fewer people required in total. The Amazon PR is pure sophistry.

  32. OMG. That takes some imagination. Hard to beat the worst government in my lifetime, led by a sociopathic buffoon.

  33.  @kaiser-ki6wp  I was born and raised in England, Tom. Just disgusted with the Tories and ashamed of Little England

  34. Wonder if our state media will report on the 15,000 people in parliament Square? Enough is enough.

  35.  @Gee-xb7rt  I totally agree, having seen through Thatcher's bs from the start

  36. Bringing Jeremy Corbyn into the argument was the greatest own goal ever by Raab. All the media lies about his links with Russia while the Tories were taking back handers from oligarchs and benefiting from their interference in the electoral process. The real and present danger to Britain is the abject buffoon called Johnson.

  37. Those who confuse JRM's posh accent with intelligence will be disabused by this encounter. Game, set and match to Ms Harman (a politocian from a different league.)

  38. She is so "determined" she threw her chancellor under a bus.
    8
  39.  @idonthavealoginname  Indeed. And now these chancers have legalised it.

  40. In which case he should resign because of his incompetence.

  41. Braverman: my plan isn't working because it's against international law and is a half-arsed joke. So I'll just complain that Labour doesn't have a plan. It's all Labour's fault because the "British people have spoken.". Exactly when and what did the people say? Somehow she missed out 13 years of government failure.

  42. The law is an ass and British democracy is an oxymoron. This Lord refers to our "constitution," which is a series of uncodified precedents, deliberately opaque for manipulation by the corrupt and powerful. We need democracy, and that must give Scotland the right to self-determination.

  43. Yes. A bit like PMQs
    7
  44.  @aryastark634  yes. Ultimately caused by the use of derivatives (the re-parceling of debt) so bankers could fuel greed from dodgy speculation.

  45. Actually they are usually right but their ideas don't suit the powerful and won't be adopted. Show exactly where they are wrong.

  46. We don't need an engineer obsessed with woke when our economy is FUBAR. Fixing the train when the tracks are broken is not the answer we need.

  47. Loves maths; hates facts.

  48.  @EdgarStyles1234  Wrong name, wrong time of day. Wakey, wakey, Edgar

  49. @left_blank "stolen taxes" are also taken by evasion, before the point of collection. Tax evasion costs nine times more than benefit cheats. You are falling for misdirection.

  50.  @andrewharrison1194  it happened when Raab had to resort to attacking Jeremy Corbyn instead of answering a question. An own goal when the clear and present danger to Britain is called Johnson, who was taking dodgy backhanders from Russian oligarchs and benefiting from their electoral interference. Read the Russia Report if in doubt.
