JD, JD, remember this?

Gee you are a bunch of hypocrites

Now about those US bonds half the world own

Maybe, just maybe a co-ordinated threat to dump them might bring Donnie to heel

Worth a try I suggest

Mr Tice Ms Oakeshott, are you listening?

You chose to live as immigrants, now live with it

No special treatment for these monied chancers thanks HMG

Doesn't strike me as a man who will give up power without a bit of a fight

Boom!

Captain Haddock slaps Oakeshite round the chops!

Well said Liam 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Ex-minister adds to UK calls for ban on political donations in cryptocurrency Exclusive: Labour’s Rushanara Ali plans to intervene in elections bill amid warnings of foreign interference

www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

This must be right. All crypto political donations must be banned. Receiving them should be a criminal offence, with a lengthy jail sentence.

Well as 'victims' go, Farage has a bit of a history

Nuff said!

Always playing the victim card to cover his and any party he is associated with inadequacies

Good show Alex and Kenny 👏🏼👏🏼

Not much that I could take issue with there and much of it I have been saying since Thursday re UK politics

The podcast did remind me though of how fundamentally flawed McSweeney's, 'you will all vote for us strategy was(is?)'

One by-election saw that firmly trounced

Agreed

Vacancy: World’s Moral Leader. Essential qualities: articulate, inspiring, inclusive vision, sees things from standpoint of marginalised, understands power and its misuse, prepared to work long hours. Remuneration, respect of billions, vile abuse and ridicule by right wing press and politicians.

Boris Johnson was born in New York

Just saying

Ooof, I know where that is coming from! 😉

There's stuff to get riled about!

(Not had a chance to listen. Will be hooked up on dog walk in 30 mins)

And add this to the list (yes I know it's not with a gun as such but consequences, consequences). In this case Donnie knew what impact the kidnap would have

Genocide in Gaza and the West Bank

Assassination of a country's leader

Kidnap of a country's leader

And he still expects the Nobel Peace Prize

Peace with a gun rarely works

Personally there are quite a few things that have jarred for me with this Govt. I do understand your point that it's usually one thing, but maybe this time it's because many of us had a lot of hope and that keeps getting hammered

Benefits
Immigration policy
Etc

And I'll not forget their cloth ears

Ha!

That word "trust" again! 🥴

I suppose there's just the tiny issue of regime change Sam. They could be more trustworthy, they might not be

I trust (sic) his lawyers have looked at vicarious liability

Not a lot that man says makes sense

My old patch, his portfolio is in a mess, partly because he won't listen and partly because he seems to think if you shout loud enough things will happen. If he became PM he has the potential to be worse than Truss or Johnson

Labour MPs demand Starmer change course after humiliating byelection loss Scale of defeat to Greens has plunged party into fresh despair and again raised prospect of leadership challenge

'Ministers usually loyal to the prime minister were similarly downbeat. “The result is cataclysmically bad for us. The worst possible”

What? You really thought you could win it?

Me thinks some Govt members are not listening 🤬

Feels like Trump has them on a group What's App and sent the script for them to work from

Mr Graham

Just Foxtrot Oscar you bloody hypocrite

If you piss people off as your President and VP have done them expect countries to say, why should I just do what you want me to

Get in the real world. The USA is not omnipotent

Viktor

We see you 👀👀👀

Do you understand the word hypocrite?

This is amazing.

I wish that word had been invented in the 1990s when I had to send several consulting companies on their way when they tried to sell me a bespoke solution to my issues that was actually the house PowerPoint slide with the headings changed

Their solutions were just enshitification

I remember that from our 25 years together S Africa tour in Nov 2024

It's unremitting!

They really are a bunch of hypocrites

Misstep, after misstep after misstep

How can someone get it so wrong so frequently

Bone spurs?

Inherited from his dad of course
