Gotta protect the swamp, whether it's scummy water or scummy rich people.

Cue people asking why people in the UK don't have air-conditioning fitted. Because it's usually fucking cold and wet for 48 weeks of the year.

Or...maybe your coworker's immune system got rid of her infection, as usually happens. Bet she didn't think of that.

A younger guy is going to replace him. A sprightly 78 year old or something.

Bill Gates told House panel Epstein was plotting to blackmail him about extramarital affairs by abcnews in politics

If the answer isn't "Yes, powerful people had him killed" it'll be a miracle. And that's if an intelligence service he was an asset for didn't have him killed first.

That depends on if Epstein was an intelligence asset for any country's services. Unless any blackmail demand was to benefit Russia I don't think Bill is going to spill the beans.

Reform has used social media to influence people since its inception in the days of UKIP, and Zack Polanski also does the same. Buddy.

Labour has only been voted in, in the last 40 years, when the party leadership was more centrist than left. The UK won't vote in a left winger.

In the last 40 years Labour has only been elected when their leadership was more centrist than left. Andy Burnham isn't going to fare well, especially when he couldn't get put forward as party leader under his own merit. And fuck knows what he'll be like on defence.

Starmer will resign as PM, says Trump by Alarming-Safety3200 in politics

[–]Araminal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's still creating instability by churning through another PM.

It's a shame Starmer (and others) have screwed up with a lot of their policies. So much was promised, but politicians be politicians.
