Quote from: Bentley Bullet on February 07, 2024, 10:04:12 amYou support the insupportable? Really? Why? How is, for example, questioning where the promised £350 Million a week to the NHS is supporting the unsupportable BB?
You support the insupportable? Really? Why?

How is, for example, questioning where the promised £350 Million a week to the NHS is supporting the unsupportable BB?To use that slogan as a form of a Tory slur is a way of supporting the Labour Party indirectly because the Labour Party itself is showing no signs of offering anything different. Showing disapproval of the opposition is the only way of showing approval to them. To simplify it for you it is like a Scunthorpe United fan saying they support Scunny because Donny Rovers are shite!
Correct me if I'm wrong here, but Aren't the Tories claiming that MORE than £350m is now being put into the NHS every week? Is it also true that the author of that slogan, Dominic Cummings, has now left the Tory Party, and the Tory Party's new PM is trying to make the best of the situation, just like the Labour Party with Keir Starmer will do later on this year?Is it also true that you will condemn Labour opponents who call Starmer, who campaigned to stay in the EU and once pushed for a second Brexit referendum, then used his first speech of 2023 to promise to “embrace” the Brexiteer message pushed by ex-Prime Minister Boris Johnson, for being a turncoat?Regarding the promised hospitals, who's to say that the project wouldn't have been much further along had it not been for Johnson being dealt a blow after blow series of disasters of horric proportions during his Premiership?Your post has just reiterated the accuracy of the analogy of a Scunthorpe United fan saying they support Scunny because Donny Rovers are shite. Thanks for that!

The way I feel now is I can't wait until your glorious Labour Party gains power. It'll be wonderful witnessing you digging a hole so deep you'll end up bumping into your mate Sydney.BB.And that gets to the core of your problem.You defend them BECAUSE THEY AREN'T LABOUR.You are totally disinterested in facts or evidence or nuanced argument. You defend them simply because you despise the other side, although you don't seem to know WHY you despise the other side.Assessment of policy failings, political philosophy, personal probity etc never crosses your mind. People you don't like don't like the Tories, so you have to defend them.It would be pitiful. Except that people like you have a vote.

Hey BB, Sunak just joked in parliament about Starmer not knowing what a woman is with Brianna Ghey's mother in the gallery. Come on, where's your alternative facts on this one? https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/rishi-sunak-trans-joke-brianna-ghey-mum-b2492095.html

That matters not. It was almost certainly written prior to PMQ's and not something spontaneous as it was part of Sunak's whole 'have a go at Starmer' set. If she were not in the gallery at the time is fortunate, though due to the publicity she would have quickly become aware of it and anyway, she was certainly there when the request for an apology, (which he didn't give), was made. Irrespective, it was totally disgusting given the short time after the trauma the mother suffered during the trial and sentencing!

Thinking about the situation here, perhaps I should have taken the moderator's advice and just ignored you. It's just that I don't like anyone ruling the roost unchallenged, which seems to be what you and your little band of lefties want.

You would have voted for Corbyn, the bloke who you have since described as being mind-numbingly thick, just because he's Labour, but now YOU ALSO have stabbed Corbyn in the back, and now show your utmost support for his backstabber, Starmer, just because he's Labour.THAT is YOUR standard of politics.Oh, and thanks for the offer, but go and f**k yourself.
Ha ha, here comes Mr Wigerly, right on time! What was that claim about Hound and me being tribal Billy boy? "OOh, the playground bully is fighting, I'm right behind you my master and protector... Can I have a kick?"....
