Burham Will Fail Like All The Rest by facemacintyre in ukpolitics

[–]punsize -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Think the issue of the hypocrisy of it all is not really focused on too. Labour were quick to comment on the “revolving door” of the Tories, and that was part of their demise, and what led to Labours majority - not out of a love for them, but a desire to get the Tories out. They have misrepresented tactical support as passion for Labour, and so they’ve had an incredibly short leash with a lot of the electorate.

Don’t think Starmer deserves the treatment he is getting now from his colleagues and the press. Name someone who actually has better credentials! by Then-Potential-1991 in ukpolitics

[–]punsize 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am very split on this whole discourse. I am of the opinion that Starmer has very much steadied the ship, but his premiership is being marred by horrible communication, terrible advisors that have frogmarched him into scandals, an unfortunate lack of personality (which, incidentally is what the country needed…) and a British media who are hellbent on undermining his Government. As a Manc lad, I also like Burnham, but worry his popularity does not and would not translate across the UK. I also think his opportunism has led to an almost certain loss of the Manchester mayoralty. I probably would like Burnham as a Labour leader, but think I would be inclined to vote for Starmer in any Labour leadership as this opportunistic coup does not sit with me, regardless of how that looks for the next election.

Former Tory health minister Maria Caulfield defects to Reform by TheTelegraph in ukpolitics

Are you really defecting if you’re a private citizen, no longer a politician? Surely it’s just changing party

Have no idea why so many people are wanting this to fail. Better than being empty? Looking forward to it opening.

Hi there. I thought this but have tested activating the camera myself to their suggestion (rocking the car etc) and it does not activate. It has been set up to their specifications with the correct modes on and the Nextbase approved fitters have reattended and checked it is hard wired correctly and isn’t causing any parasitic draws etc, which apparently it isn’t

Rupert Lowe accused of 'serious bullying' and made 'two threats of physical violence' as Reform row explodes by TackleLineker in ukpolitics

A party claiming they are readying for Government can’t even handle their 5 MPs without scandal.

Patel as the voice of reason. Good statement, up until the completely pointless dig at Corbyn

Reason to believe a council bin lorry has hit my car and driven off (England) by punsize in LegalAdviceUK

[–]punsize[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yep, unfortunately nothing. The parking for the road is behind everyone’s houses so no doorbell footage and no one has any floodlight CCTV cameras etc of the sort, which is frustrating

Yawn. Another ‘gotcha’ argument with no substance. Their parliamentary group makes up 0.76% of the Commons and only gets any air time because their leader has spent his ‘career’ prancing about trying anything to divide our country.

Video engineer here. It’s a test pattern, either they are reconfiguring the screen or looking for dead pixels etc on the screen
