    It's Govt by soundbite and has been for some time. There's very little debate on major issues initiated bt the Govt particularly on difficult and complex issues such as immigration. It's just dog whistle politics saying things which might appeal to their supporters rather than having a grown up debate on these things which are so important to so many.

    Watching a video showing what Poland have done and will do to back Ukraine in this war, they are taking the lead supplying weapons planes and training to the Ukrainian military.
    They have said they will not allow Polish culture to be diluted with regards other cultures using the asylum card, good for them, unfortunately by the time the 2025 General Election is over which ever party get into power they have a massive problem with regards these boat people.

    I go to Poland a couple of times a year to visit. The country is built on Catholicism, the holy buildings in places like Krakow are amazing.

    Not sure how BBC are running story of police investigating London Mayor hopeful Christmas Covid party rather than drinks party in House of Commons by one of the Deputy Speakers. Surely the possible breach of rules in Parliament is a bigger story?

    Everyone of the public who were issued with a fine should have it returned. Clearly those who had all the data and set all the rules knew the risk for the vast majority of people was very low so they flaunted the rules daily it seems.

    It has got to the point now where it would be easier to list those who weren't taking the piss.

    I notice Sunak is going into hiding for 2 weeks and ducking PMQs. His arse was handed to him last week and he is failing on all 5 of his pledges. He seems to think hiding from plain sight might work out for him as the Tories continue to drop to low 20s in the polling.
    These by-elections might get a few Tory rebels plotting.

    Sunak has to be the weakest Tory prime minister in my lifetime, oh for a talented strong character such as Maggie again

    It's unbelievable. Whatever you think about small boat crossings, no one can seriously deny that there will be terrified small children arriving at asylum centres. The idea that you would make life as unwelcoming as possible for traumatised kids, who have no say over what is happening to them, is mind-blowing egregious cruelty. It's a complete lack of common human decency.
    This takes the Nasty Party to new depths of scumminess.

    You're right, it's absurd .........it's too late when these 30 year old kids have already set foot on our shores .....

    Don't be so heartless and pathetic.

    "The Kent intake unit (KIU) is a reception centre for unaccompanied child asylum seekers. Some of the lone children arriving in the UK are as young as nine, the Home Office recently disclosed. Jenrick issued the instruction to paint over the mural in April."

    They don't send 30 year olds to child reception centres. The idea that painting over murals is any kind of deterrent is ridiculous. It's just cruelty for cruelty's sake and exposes the Tories for the heartless bastards they are, as if we didn't already know that.

    Wankstains, absolute wankstains. This is what happens when they try and govern with sound bites and rhetoric. Cannot wait till this lot are booted out. Could not give one shiny shite who replaces them either, probably won’t make much difference to me. At least we’ll get rid of this puerile, c***y nonsense. I hope
