What Easy Mary did later behind the bins with me was definitely some good work.

[Malcolm Armsteen]

James Delingpole.

Ladies and gentlemen, your actual antisemitism in plain sight.

Followed up by

[Tubby Isaacs]

Fucking hell.

[Crabcakes]

Good grief. Hopefully that’ll finally do for Delingpole. He’s always been utterly abhorrent, but this is a new low even for him.

[Oboogie]

I've reported that, I presume spreading Nazi ideology breaches Twitter T&Cs, but maybe not.

[Spoonman]

Since extremist Islamic terrorism is no longer en vogue as the Western conservative's big boogeyman, replaced by "wokeness" and whatever they can ring out of culture wars, plenty of right wingers can and are now dropping using Jewish people and/or Israel as a shield for their bigotry, with the term "Judeo-Christian Values" having been quietly dropped in the last couple of years.

One thing that is as predictable as has been for a long time is that if D***ingpole was a Labour supporter, you'd see him being front page headlines in most media outlets in the country this weekend. What should be happening is that those currently or previously associated with him should make it clear they no longer wish to be associated with him or be tainted themselves - after all, that logic was good enough to throw at anyone even slightly Muslim for years.

[Youngian]

Brexiters aren’t empirically minded people who are adjusting well to their project melting before their eyes. Some will lick their wounds and rethink their certainties but more will scuttle away down the rabbit hole like Delingpole.

MARCO LONGHI MP.

I thought about starting a new thread about this total arsehole, but realised he isn’t significant enough for that. -just another loathsome twat of a Tory MP, who has grabbed some publicity for advocating a Boris Johnson comeback.

He really is an absolute, out and out wanker, in multiple ways, as his Wikipedia entry (see link) shows :
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marco_Longhi. Thank fuck he’s going to be out on his ear come the election. I only hope that the voters of Dudley North have learned their fucking lesson.

[Watchman]

My local MP (maj 7125, so not too much wriggle room) retweeted some bile by this twat in support of her declaring she’s in camp Boris

[Andy McDandy]

All I'll say is that he's well suited to Dudley.

[mattomac]

Someone asked on twitter when the names were posted if he was a coffee machine.

Wasn’t that one seat that saw no move towards Labour in the elections.

Of course if they don’t elect Boris it probably falls.

[Yug]

It's your shit, own it.

The health secretary has refused to accept Conservative spending cuts have played a role in problems faced by the health service - blaming an ageing population, rising costs and the pandemic instead.

In an exclusive interview with Sky News' Beth Rigby, Steve Barclay rejected the findings of a King's Fund report from April, which said the health service had "declined since 2010, as a result of much lower funding increases, limited funds for capital investment and neglect of workforce planning".

When the quote was put to him, he said: "In the period between 2010 and 15, when there was a coalition government, we were dealing with the consequences of the financial crash under the previous government in 2008. And difficult decisions had to be taken in that period."

These would be the tough decisions that took a recovering economy and plunged it straight back into recession. The tough decisions which, in 2017, the Tories admitted had no basis in economic necessity but were taken purely for ideological reasons.

Stop fucking lying, you weapons-grade thundercunt.

I'm amazed that anybody pays attention to these sort of statements.
Least of all when they're invited onto chat programmes to "discuss" them.

It's the equivalent of the kid with report card full of Fs popping into Woolies for a pack of self-adhesive gold stars.

[Abernathy]

Oh, FFS. Longhi is attempting to weaponise politically the local outrage at the loss of The Crooked House pub.

[Boiler]

"Talking Pints".

I bet Farage will have something to say about that.

[soulboy]

You want a flake in that?

[kreuzberger]

These political death throes are quite amusing. He's rather foolish.

[Boiler]

You want a flake in that?

Either end of the barrel or most likely, doesn't know what he's doing. It's grimly amusing but as ever - an election is a long way away.

I've been in pubs where that'd start a fight

[Watchman]

I see he’s got the standard Tory pint pouring technique

[satnav]

The media keep referring to it as a popular pub, but if it was so popular why did the previous owners decide to sell it.

Dozens of pubs have closed in my area in the last couple of years with many of them either becoming shops or being demolished and replaced by owners. Every time it happens lots of people make a big fuss about it saying how it is a big loss to the community yet if some of these people had actually frequented the pub when it was open then perhaps it would not have ended up being deemed uneconomic.
