I am sure you are the perfect human being, jfman, who has never said an unkind word to anyone, even when prodded and provoked mercilessly.

Although that is not my experience when dealing with your barbs on this forum.

My point, to get back to it, was that a simple comment in response to provocation, does not mean you are a racist.

Sunak should never have taken over. We need somebody strong to lead this country and someone to face down these lazy name calling cancel merchants who continually take a holier than thou attitude and preach woke nonsense.

We have lost our way and Labour would only take us into a very dark tunnel from which we may never emerge.

During which time we have had austerity following the election of the Conservatives, hampered by the coalition with the Lib Dems, two odd years of Covid that Starmer would have mishandled due to his obsession with lockdowns and restrictions, and on top of that, the Ukraine war.

The civil service is doing a pretty good job of destroying public services, for example with its failure to direct money being injected into the NHS, preferring instead to spend hundreds of thousands of pounds on making woke appointments rather than into front line services.

Again, you seem to not understand the concept of irony - you railed against "name calling" by name calling and ad hominem statements, using value-free emotive statements.

The other thing is that the tax thresholds are still static even after a year of high inflation. It's a massive stealth tax.

NEW: May election on the way? Tonight I’m told Tory party been instructed to be ready for a election from Jan 1st, with Issac Levido (Sunak campaign chief) joining CCHQ on that date full time.

Note: option on table doesn’t meant it’s going to happen. But the NI cut Jan 6 opens the door for May election.

If there was any spare cash going maybe it should have been spent on our crumbling roads, railways, schools and hospitals, rather than a pre-election bribe. Radical I know.
