British Politics
Been on holiday for a few weeks, surprised to find no general discussion of British politics so though I'd kick one off.
Tory leadership contest is quickly turning into farce. Trump has backed Boris, which should be reason enough for anyone with half a brain to exclude him.
Of the other candidates Rory Stewart looks the best of the outsiders. Surprised to see Cleverly and Javid not further up the betting, but not sure the Tory membership are ready for a brown PM.

Regarding the LD leadership contest, Jo Swinson is miles ahead of any other candidate (and indeed any of the Tory lot). Should be a shoe in.
Finally, it's Groundhog Day in Labour - the more serious the anti-Semitism claims get, the more Corbyn's cronies write their own obituary by blaming it on outlandish conspiracy theories - this week, it's apparently the Jewish Embassy's fault...
In your own words - you believing the Conservative Party is on the left is an admission of how far to the right you are.
Not that we really needed your fascism spelled out to us, with your repeated desire to see mass executions for civil disobedience etc.

"Being against net0 carbon emissions and lockdowns for COVID, and hate speech laws, and considering them leftist policy preferences, is fascism"
If you oppose this you are a fascist, because Tories don't oppose this -Jalfrezi
Rant rant, burble burble.
^ Good grief.
I have ITT vigorously defend the BBC for its high-quality new output and impartiality, but it's getting to the stage where it's no longer fit for purpose. Once again, as soon as someone mentioned ethnicity, someone mentions how the majority of rapes are committed by while people and think's they have made a salient counterpoint.
I think we all know about BBC Three, though.
The 10% is from the fairly moderate conservatives who like to think they are labour.
the people who still think tony blair was good.
It's more likely to be public-sector interest groups who think they benefit. Although they are quite likely to bite the hand that feeds them, as they did in the 1970s.
