How very chivalrous of him. And them. From the Grauniad, Feb, 2020, on the official report on him having abdicated his responsibility when he recommended Cyril Smith for a knighthood. Quote Steel should have confronted Smith and asked “if he was still committing offences against boys” before recommending him for an honour, the report said. Confronted him, then recommended him for that honour! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshbairn Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 Under the new Nationality and Borders Bill going through Parliament, NI citizens could have their UK citizenship revoked without warning or reason given, without a right of appeal, because they also have the right to claim Irish Citizenship. https://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/sunday-life/news/farry-blasts-bill-on-british-citizenship-41201298.html?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=BT:DailyNews&hConversionEventId=AQEAAZQF2gAmdjQwMDAwMDE3ZS0xYTZmLTAzNzUtOGY2ZC0wMzQzNjkwN2UwNjHaACRhMGMxZTAxZi03ZmE0LTQ1YjUtMDAwMC0wMjFlZjNhMGJjZDPaACRiNjVkNTNlYy1hMzFjLTQwNDUtOWExYS1kZGQ3YzQyMjJkYmXeoxRyqQtHiy3Y1e9IgdKTW9PtruKNkPLhQyuS5a3ZUg 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What if we were to revoke the UK citizenship of the likes of Johnny Adair and his nutter fellow Loyalists, and make them Irish? That would be a good laugh, except for said nutters and the good people of Ireland. Make it happen, Ms Patel. December 6, 2021 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnson can stay in place for the next couple of years until it's election time, then out he goes and in comes rishi or whatever greedy incompetent they have lined and give it the "new leader, new government" patter and England will lap it up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, so long as Johnson keeps his nose clean for a while, they'll have another successful campaign in a few years' time even with him as the figurehead. Everyone will have forgotten by then, and the press will do nothing to help remind them so long as they keep getting invites to parties at No. 10. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think a new Tory leader/PM would certainly get a bounce in the polls. The problem for the Tory Party is twofold. Firstly, Johnson won’t last much longer, his lies are finally catching up with him and there’s more to come, IMO he will be gone by the Spring. Secondly, the country is in a mess. Covid has largely masked the impact of Brexit as has the delays in full implementation of the various regulations. It’s a ticking bomb. The financial support for Covid will limit options for the U.K. government for the foreseeable future and inflation is hitting levels not seen for years and is only going to rise. Any incoming PM will have to deal with these issues and by the time of the next GE will be drowning in problems. Any popularity bounce will be gone by then. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotThePars Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 Any Labour win would be as disastrous for the UK in the long term because they're devoid of ideas and have signalled their intent to continue down the same path of (managed) decline. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enough folk have resigned themselves to the fact that this is as good as it gets for the plebs without an inactive "left-wing" party being elected and convincing even more. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D Angelo Barksdale Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 Labour are never getting another overall majority again anyway. Regardless of how bad the Tories are, the press are more than capable of shitfesting a hung parliament over the line for them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
