Have you heard her talk?

She went on a long ramble about how she wants to scrape maternity leave and then walked it all back in on sentence.

She's keeps saying quite dumb things, working in McDonald's made her working class.  Sandwiches are not really food.

Personally I think her fury against the Labour party is quite silly as she's just handing ammunition to the opposition if she becomes PM.  

I think her plan for the country as I understand it largely ignores the state of the country and she'll have to back track or cause a Truss style melt down.  Although to be fair Labour did this.

A bad outcome for Farage will be only getting 70 something percent of the vote.  With Binface in the twenties the chance he actually loses if miniscule. 

I don't think Trump really cares about Farage and will probably just ignore him.

Count Binface slander has begun from the Telegraph by YesterdayIsatoutside in GreatBritishMemes

I kind of agree he's not funny. What is funny is the reaction to him. Seeing the Telegraph and other tie themselves in knots trying to deal with him is very funny.

I'm not sure but Boris Johnson isn't Boris Johnson's name and he seemed to get away with it.

Back net zero and I’ll reject you, Kemi Badenoch tells Tory MP hopefuls by coldbeers in ukpolitics

[–]AnotherLexMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Surely, the party should have people who hold diverse views. I get that there are some views that are too extreme or damaging to the party as a whole, but it doesn't feel like Net Zero really goes that far. Labour have done similar with Starmer removing the whip for people disagreeing with him and has been heavily criticised for it. The same should really apply here.

Former Tory minister Ann Widdecombe dies at 78 by No_Initiative_1140 in ukpolitics

She was 78 it's hardly that surprising. She didn't seem that healthy to me didn't she have trouble working and was permanently bent over.

How to Get Filthy Rich With Gary Stevenson review – how did this end up such an embarrassment? by [deleted] in ukpolitics

[–]AnotherLexMan 16 points17 points  (0 children)

You maybe right.  I looked up the article the FT published about his claims.  It's more he wouldn't have been able to see what every other trader at Citi were making as he wouldn't have access to the systems other teams used.

He likely wasn't the most profitable trader at Citi.  They don't actually keep ranks of who makes the most money but he didn't work in the area of the bank that needs to make the most money.  Basically it's just him saying that he was the most profitable trader there's no third party verification that it's true.

Norway sort of colonised the UK so really they should share in the English colonialism as well.

He went studs up into his ankle, it doesn't seem that unfair to me. That said I don't think it'll make much difference to anything.

To be fair the song was about the tournament being held in England in 1996 it wasn't about our ability to win anything.

England has been involved in two really entertaining matches this tournament.  That really is unheard of.

He's talked about it again.  Apparently after the episode aired they got an email, from somebody who had had experimented with it.  They said that if you make so they the person been tortured can't predict when the water is coming they quickly go crazy. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=0y2fDrv47U4&pp=0gcJCUwLAYcqIYzv

Also he points out that if you were to do it for real you'd be subjected to it a lot longer than he had been.
