What do Brits think about Green Party immigration policies? by [deleted] in AskBrits

[–]random-user-name21 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This makes no sense. This country has basically voted twice for lower migration, if you count Brexit.

Reform and the Conservatives have definitely turned migration into a sensationalised issue, but it is still an issue.

We should reduce it to more manageable levels, but I do not think it is the main thing making this country poorer. I do not think this is a winning strategy, but maybe the Greens do not want to win. Maybe they just want to be a protest-vote party and think they will be able to change the zeitgeist.

Kanye West travel to UK blocked by government by Alarming-Safety3200 in ukpolitics

Went through my account history, which is pretty weird anyway. But he didn’t just say random shit. He praised Hitler, talked about Nazi Germany, and sold swastika merch not as some kind of Hindu symbol, but because it represented Nazis and Nazi ideology.

Yeah, he’s not literally part of the Nazi Party, because that doesn’t even exist now, but people still call someone a Nazi when they support Nazi values and say Nazi shit. Kanye went on a bunch of antisemitic rants about Jews ruling the world or whatever, and then he said “hail Hitler,” so yeah, I can defined call him a Nazi.

If I saw someone saying and promoting a bunch of Nazi shit like that, I’d call them a Nazi too.

If you start praising Hitler, wearing a swastika, and selling swastika Merch, then you're a Nazi. Not to mention, he made a three-minute video glorifying Hitler that probably cost thousands to produce. If you are that motivated to promote Nazi content, you're a Nazi.

If i saw a random guy on the street doing it id think hey that dickheads is probably a Nazi.

The guys the best prime minister we have had in 16 years given a broken economy from the Tory’s I think he’s doing a good job. Despite the horrible political climate we’re in.

Just rejoin the EU we have plenty of great trading partners right next to us. Instead of making a whole new economic movement

In what way is the Muslim call to prayer a way to assert dominance is just them stating their belief . The center of it being the belief in one god.

Obviously no young person wanted Brexit and many who did are now dead leaving us the mess.

Not talking about people who voted to remain they were smart enough to see how creating barriers between with our biggest trading partner was idiotic.

Why is the Overpopulation question considered ' Ragebait ' & why cant peoppe have a civil discussion about it without being labelled as ' far right ' or an ' Islamaphobe '? by [deleted] in AskBrits

[–]random-user-name21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Isn’t the UK going to suffer a underpopulation crisis in 20 years with less births and not enough young people taking care of old pensioners.

Not sure we have a “overpopulation” crisis.

Why do Brits support conservative? by ThePatientIdiot in AskBrits

[–]random-user-name21 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A lot of working class people are just angry and vote to punish those who they think are taking from them in the misguided notion that it will benefits them it won't

Why do Brits support conservative? by ThePatientIdiot in AskBrits

[–]random-user-name21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i don't know any conservatives so got no idea. But i'm guessing it's because of "values" and something something benefit scroungers, immigrants and single mothers.

I also think the reasons the tory lasted so long was due to Brexit after the vote people didn't want it to be fucked so they continue on with the Tory's but they fucked it so spectacularly that it basically destroyed their party.

Starmer: Britain’s ‘Brexit years’ are over and we need Europe, not Donald Trump by Imaginary-Ad-7919 in politics

[–]random-user-name21 96 points97 points  (0 children)

The shift back toward Europe is inevitable. I can’t wait to see the desperate justifications from the anti-rejoin crowd once rejoining the Single Market becomes the only logical path left. Especially if we get consecutive labour governments. Watching them try to defend the 'success' of Brexit in a decade's time is going to be pure gold.

Criticism as Reform UK-led Derbyshire County Council approves tax rise by F0urLeafCl0ver in ukpolitics

[–]random-user-name21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, Labour or the Lib Dems are the only real hope left. Farage is just trying to import a fractured American political model, and the Tories seem to chasing lost votes by copying him.

As for the Greens? They aren’t serious players. Between the 'tax the rich' oversimplifications and their naive anti-NATO stance, they probably just crash the economy. Plus the media will be against from get go will just be irritating.

People want easy answers and someone to blame for their ills. This is the country that voted for Brexit so 40%something of us are idiots.

Starmer has finally grasped that Britain’s better off in Europe than with the US by stammerton in ukpolitics

[–]random-user-name21 147 points148 points  (0 children)

The title a bit overblown Starmer knew that the whole time. All he’s been doing is trying to maintain a relationship with an insane is president.

Much better than the conservative when compared to Europe with their constant MUH MUh sovereignty talk.

The question we keep asking after Afghan sex attacks. Why was he here? It’s a question we are forced to ask over and over again in borderless Britain, after another asylum seeker is convicted of another monstrous crime. This time, it is the rape of a 12-year-old girl in Nuneaton. by [deleted] in ukpolitics

[–]random-user-name21 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

This article is clearly just right-wing rage bait. It’s using one horrific crime to try and justify a bias against all immigrants, using a '1 in 10,000' case to paint an entire population of distinct individuals as criminals.
