Good news that we're monitoring such organisations

Security minister Ben Wallace has warned that far-right extremists in the UK are adopting the same grooming methods previously used by Islamist groups to radicalise people.
The minister, who is responsible for counter-terrorism, said there is a danger that far-right and Islamist extremists antagonise and feed off each other’s activity in order to increase conflict.

But the socialista will have a warm fuzzy feeling of high taxes on the "rich" who will have fled the country like happened in France.

Sounds like project fear.

Correct and the champagne socialist elite will have their snouts in the trough just like the fat cats they say they despise. Utter hypocrites.

Meh heard it all before and it's bs, nothing would change for the vast majority of us no matter who was in power, what I know for certain is that I won't be voting for a party again that's main election strategy is to tell me how bad it'll be under them others over how good it'll be under their governance

Quite surprised at that but perhaps there are things we don't know yet.

When JC said that he would be Prime Minister in twelve months I thought he was joking. Maybe he knew something we didn't?

He was requested to by the PM as he broke ministerial code by giving inaccurate and misleading answers to a Commons enquiry.
Quote:

He quit after he was found to have made "inaccurate and misleading" statements about what he knew about claims pornography had been found on a computer in his Commons office in 2008...He denied suggestions that he made unwanted advances to a female journalist, Kate Maltby, in 2015 and viewed pornography on a computer in his Commons office in 2008...
An official report by the Cabinet Office found that statements he had made about being unaware pornographic material had been found on his computer were "inaccurate and misleading" and as such fell short of the ministerial code.
The report also found that although there were "competing and contradictory accounts of what were private meetings" between himself and Ms Maltby, "the investigation found Ms Maltby's account to be plausible".

He's broken the ministerial code of conduct apparently. ie. looking at porn in work time, and then lying about it. If only he could have waited till he got home....

Will she bring back Tim and Fiona? Damian was meant to be the steady pair of hands.

Just because a Minister resigns does not mean another one is required to be voted in or confirmed.

TM has plenty of other MPs to choose from to appoint First Minister, in all honesty the cabinet role is not necessary it's just another name for 'Deputy Prime Minister'.

Its no good having a safe pair of hands if one is holed below the waterline.

Waiting for David Davis to resign, he promised to if Green went.....

I did think that Theresa May's statement about delaying Brexit in exceptional circumstances might come into play now... but she's lost at least one other minister who lied and broke ministerial code as well so I guess not. https://www.standard.co.uk/news/poli...-a3724196.html
