I don't understand how that angle works, but it seems to be effective. Labour are fucking up a 5 nil half time lead in my opinion. Starmers constant u turns will be their downfall in England.

Labour will not doubt secure a few votes if they make a big show about tackling anti-Semitism but given the appalling reports and pictures coming out of Gaza and the West Bank they possibly stand to lose more, and not just amongst Muslim voters.

I know most in politics do to a certain extent but he's one of the worst "leaders" i've ever seen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly think he'd walk the election if he reversed his stance on Gaza and started calling for a cease fire.

He can't do that because he received money from Israel or Israeli-linked sources sources - I thought it was £50k but someone told me it was £100k. The actual amount maybe isn't important; it's the fact that he is now bought and paid for. As are many other politicians and folk in high places. Money buys politicians. It should be made illegal for politicians to accept donations from overseas sources. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's so much of a mishmash of concern across the media, even within the same publication, that they cannot pull a simple right or wrong side out the hat. Yet the accusations and responses are acting as though that's possible. Today there's an article about being bombed while living in tents while another one I read highlighted a huge surge in anti-semitism. One example given was someone driving a van with a Palestinian flag shaking their fist out of an open window. No wonder they're saying it's gone up 500% if that's the kind of thing being counted...

Very much a relevant answer too when we're talking about money available to Scotland whether in the Central Belt or the Highlands & Islands.

He had a wee dig at Labour then Lucy Powell, who had been allowed to rabbit on virtually unchecked all night had a dig back, followed, in turn by that silver haired columnist woman (her name escapes me) and the Tory MP. Bruce then did that infuriating thing of cutting Hendry off just as he was about to rebutt their claims (which were, basically, Scotland is badly run and skint).

Looked like Liz Truss with a syrup. Came out with the same old tripe about English taxpayers funding Scotland. A complete cow of a woman. Thought Hendry did rather well particularly around the situation in Gaza. That Unionist midden Bruce up to her usual SNPbad nonsense with the 'not turning this into a political broadcast for the SNP'. Down to the fact that Hendry had that screeching Labour harpie on toast Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starmers constant u turns will be their downfall in England. No it won't, Labour are going to stroll to a large majority. Whilst Starmer is deeply uninspiring I think you underestimate how much the Tories are despised by a huge majority of englandshire. There will be even more tactical voting than ever to defeat Tory candidates combined with the real loony wing of the Tories voting Reform instead.

Expect plenty representation from The Reform Party going forward The Greens got over 10% of the vote in the by election as well yet it's only Farage the media is interested in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
