  1.  @theimperialist2686  None whatever. I'd prefer them not to be a Communist, however.

  2. Shame we don't have the Stasi or the KGB, innit?

  3. Politics makes strange bedfellows, as they say. A great many root and branch Tories would like to see the back of Sunack.

  4. Phil is becoming increasingly petty-minded. I think he smells defeat in the air.

  5. Becoming an MP is not a job - it's a business opportunity.

  6. I can't help wondering how many parties have been held in police stations over the past two years.

  7. Just for once he may have got this right. Omicron is following the pattern usually expected of viral infections. We are 3 or 4 weeks behind S Africa. where Omicron represents now almost 99% of cases and yet, with a population of 60 million less than 9,000 are in hospital, at least half of which have been diagnosed after being admitted for other conditions. Less than 300 people are currently ventilated. Compared with Delta, the effects of Omicron seem quite incredibly less severe. It might be a little early to start throwing our hats up in the air, but doomy-gloomy, negative responses are starting to look less and less realistic. It will be a hard blow for all you paranoia junkies out there, and withdrawal symptoms may be severe - but it is as well to prepare yourselves, just in case.

  8. And replaces them with a less accountable authority.

  9. There are approximately ten times as many Muslims as Jews in Britain. Just sayin'

  10. Bla bla bla blah

  11.  @b62boom1  It's still happening today.

  12.  @mootedtols4865  You do realise you are simply indulging in a form of wishful thinking, don't you?

  13.  @gilbertmoyes2918  They are investing in companies like BlackRock and Vanguard which own most of the drug companies and most of the world's media and which are milking the pandemic for all it's worth.

  14. As opposed to covid paranoia?

  15. What right do the protestors have to claim they were acting on behalf of "the people of Bristol"? The removal of the statue was a matter for elected representatives, not a mob.

  16.  @guillaumeshearmur656  This is utter nonsense. Divisions in the 'sixties and 'seventies were far more extreme than they are now. Compared with race riots and the miners' strike Brexit is a gentlemanly disagreement.

  17. Send them to prison?

  18. @Robert Townrow Most doctors, knowing that an elderly patient will die very soon, will recommend that they do so at home if possible.

  19. Face it. We've been sold a pup and Starmer's wriggling and blathering won't alter that fact.

  20. Should this apply to all countries, do you think?

  21. For their opinions?

  22. In fact the people who were sacked were trainees and they later found they couldn't sack them because they weren't yet fully employed.

  23. This is why means testing pensioners is a good idea - so that only those without private pensions qualify for extra benefits such as free transport and the winter fuel allowance.

  24. You have the nail on the head. Plans for dealing with pandemics were trotted out on the assumption that covid would be indiscriminate in its effects. It was a mindset across most of the world which has led to carnage. Astonishingly, the thinking behind it still persists.

  25. Be afraid.
    6
  26. Does that include the police discriminating in favour of Muslims?
    6
  27. The Russians of course planned how to avoid the effects of sanctions long before their plans for Ukraine became visible. Russia has a war chest of around 500 billion dollars all safely tucked away and rude letters from Western bank managers will be tossed aside with a scornful laugh.

  28. On the other hand it might well save us from Armaggedon.

  29. Phil really should stick to parish pump politics and boring stuff about Brexit and how nasty the Tories are. His grasp of international geopolitics is about on par with that of your average polytechnic physics lecturer.

  30. He knows that technically he is. He made some serious errors of judgement.

  31.  @mazzaelili3713  Look up BlackRock and Vanguard. They own most of the world's media. They largely own Murdoch too.

  32. Britain is not at war with Russia, not is it in its pocket. It's the US which is pulling our strings.

  33. Napoleon was killed by his wallpaper. On his deathbed Oscar Wilde claimed that his wallpaper was killing him. Boris Johnson is not in their class, and his wallpaper won't kill him, but it should thankfully be instrumental in ridding us of him.

  34. There has never been a cogent case for children wearing facemasks anyway. The statistics simply don't support it. And as a recent court case has shown it has never been legally enforceable.

  35. Lies are a weapon of war. The fact is that when under pressure and in fear of death most people behave badly. All these accusations are probably true at one time or another, and even when they are not they can easily be made to seem so. War throws morality out of the window. It is absurd for those of us on the sidelines to judge the actions of those engaged in war. War is not about right and wrong. It is about killing or being killed.

  36. The current numbers suggest that herd immunity can be reached within a matter of weeks - as long as we keep our nerve. Just so you know.

  37. How about losing wars in Afghanistan and Ukraine?
    5
  38.  @superhumantrueman  The obvious point that the SU defeat in Afghanistan hastened its decline - and that the US defeat there will do the same. As indeed will its present defeat in Ukraine.

  39.  @marilenaganea6578  And for its citizens, killed by Azov snipers as the queue for food and water.

  40. GB News is crap in many ways but Farage is brilliant. He is a far better journalist and interviewer than the hags and hacks on BBC and Sky. Last night we got an in depth view from one of Trump's generals outlining exactly how Biden screwed up in Afghanistan as well as a fascinating chat with Jacob Rees-Mogg over pints of the latter's own home-brewed cider. You would have loved it.

  41. This is a fine act of defiance by a very brave man. His "terrorist act" was to refuse to allow the Gestapo access to his phone. You are on the wrong side of history.

  42. Ultimately the press and the vaccine producers are largely owned by the same two finance companies, Black Rock and Vanguard. Go figure.

  43. Why don't you just put everyone you don't agree with in prison?
    5
  44. It doesn't exist any longer.

  45.  @peterthompson1462  The situation on the island of Ireland is weird. Northern Ireland, with less restrictions is doing much worse than the Republic - all except in the three Ulster counties which have similar infection and death rates to NI!

  46. He'd been turning over in it if he knew to what purposes it has been put.

  47. ​ Karl Zaraiva  When an excess of caution and awareness leads to excessive behaviour, that is paranoia. The measures we are taking to beat this pandemic are creating more damage and causing more death and misery than the disease itself.

  48. As a deal, no. But as a tactic it does a good job.

  49. Compared with this man's role in encouraging the war in Ukraine, these are minor sins. He has stopped being a fool and become a danger. However it is done, he must be prevented from ever holding high office ever again.

  50. Any reasonable person condemns these riots. The point though is that we cannot simply dismiss the rage which caused them, not should we make the mistake of assuming they were somehow engineered by sinister outside forces. They are a crude expression of genuine discontent and the reasons for that discontent should be addressed.
