They have, my biggest concern is will the majority of the country see this and vote them out in the next general election, or is the country full of more loonies than we care to realise.

How did she ever qualify from secondary school? She's batshit crazy.

Sadly American republicans love her, and she’s becoming some sort of hero to them, on TV and going to rallies, bigging up Trump and exaggerating and lying about herself. 
They can keep her and she could run as Trumps running mate, and possibly become Vice President.

Absolutely not surprised.

We had a local council election yesterday in Cricklade after the death of a local conservative councillor, who had been a local councillor in Cricklade for over 40 years. 
I was expecting him to be replaced by another councillor from the Tories, because I live in a massive Tory constituency, and because maybe a show of solidarity to the passing councillor, but none of it the LibDem’s polled just over 70% of the votes and absolutely romped it.

Me and the missus both voted LibDem as a compromise with her being a Tory and myself being Labour, we also found out that we are no longer North Wiltshire but now South Cotswolds, not sure what difference that will make to our lives, probably just another £500.00 on our council tax.

Interesting, I currently have a LibDem MP who got in at the by-election after our previous (tory)honourable member got caught looking at tractor porn (probably stimulating his honourable member)😂

But all different next time due to boundary changes, so no idea how it'll go.

Really like this podcast (Emily Maitlis being on it is a bonus:blush:), this bit in particular....so true, right wing cunts like Anderson saying they "tell it like it is" and represent the views of the "silent majority". Do they fuck. 

 

They're so silent that you hear what they've got to say all over the fucking place.

I use to see a lot of Liz Hurley at Cirencester Polo ground when she was with that Asian chap, especially when William and Harry were playing. I’ve always been to grand for you guys😄

I hope the GE gets called soon, they're desperate to push anything through in any state.

The Tories are desperate to try and get the Brexiteer voters on their side and to vote for them come the GE, and they know that must Brexiteers voted Brexit to try and stop any form of immigration. 
And they know that deporting immigrants to Rwanda will be a vote winner amongst Brexiteers and dare I say Racists, that’s why they are trying everything possible to get this bill passed at any cost.

Just read that we are giving asylum to Rwandans who say the country isn’t safe. 
You couldn’t make it up if it wasn’t true, this surely has to be a red rag to the Bull for Labour at PMs question time to slaughter Sunak over is unrelenting claims that Rwanda is a safe place live.

Well I’m shocked that more hasn’t been made of it by the other Parties. 

Can anyone explain to me why they think mass illegal immigration is good for our country. 
and now we are tick boxing any unchecked immigrant to stay. 
regarding Rwanda is it any more unsafe than the uk. 
for me our country is finished or will be in a few years time.

How many UK citizens do you know of who have been given asylum in other countries recently?

Nobody thinks mass illegal immigraton is good for the country.

How does an immigrant get to be "tick-boxed" if they're unchecked?:huh:

Yes.

You're entitled to your opinion.
