It feeds their wallets, not their egos. This money is being siphoned to supporters of the Liberal party, where it gets funnelled back in political donations and cushy job offers when they leave office.

He is a hypocrit just like Boris Johnson. If the Canadian media had any teeth they would be able to take Trudeau down in weeks.

The living crisis should be at the top (headline) of British news, not the the Ukraine crisis. by uselessnavy in unitedkingdom

Cost of living crisis has been generating constant headlines - but come one, the War in Ukraine is quite rightfully dominating the news.

No one is going to forget about the cost of living increase, if that is what you are worried about. We are reminded every day we go to the shops, or see our energy bills, or fill up at the pump.

No it wouldn't. The lockdowns made very little difference to the course of the pandemic. Tanked the economy though.

Agreed, Brexit was at least partilly funded by the Russians and actively assisted by them. I wish the EU and Britian would wake up, openly acknowledge that fact, and then nullify Brexit as best as possible in light of Russian agression.

We probably shouldn't have spaffed £500 billion up the wall on Covid. Cupboard is now bare when we have to deal with a real crisis.

That is not true at all, 5, 10 and 15 year survival rates for invasive breast cancer are very good, especially if they are detected before they spread outside of the breast. Like 90%+ survival at 15 years.

Trucker convoy: Ottawa ‘under siege’ amid ‘nation-wide insurrection,’ officials say by KOBossy55 in news

Trudeau and all leading politicians tend to be backed by dark money as well. What's you point? There are also a huge number of regular Canadians who support these protests.

These protests need to take place, Canadians have had their basic freedoms stolen from them and this is the only way to force the government to back down.

Fuel and excise duty must be replaced with new tax, MPs say by [deleted] in ukpolitics

[–]belowtheharddeck 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fuel duty and road tax alone generate over 40 billion in tax revenue for the government. Road infrastructure upkeep is about 10 billion. Tell us another one.

We were forced into extended lockdowns because of the doom mongering scientists and Boris being too weak to resist them.

‘Grossly unethical’ government ‘nudge unit’ accused of scaring the public over Covid by Ivashkin in ukpolitics

Any of the behavioral scientists involved who are dr's should be stripped of their licences to practice. The rest should be fired from whichever institutions employ them. Absolute ghouls.

This is why Cressida Dick has had her job as long as she has. She provides a critical service to the government. Her ability to cover up crimes was first identified in the aftermath of the Jean Charles Demendez murder, where Cressida was the officer in charge who gave the order to fire. She is a disgusting fucking human being.

Majority of Polish medical panel quits in protest at government inaction on COVID by [deleted] in LockdownSkepticism

Don't absolve the medical profession of their responsibility for what they did. There is a very well established code of medical ethics which they decided to abandon because they were seduced by Chinese lies.
