People who won't have been affected by the shredding of the social contract...although they might notice later on when they start needing the NHS and it doesn't function any more (only the properly wealthy will be able to afford good private health care).

Oh I don't think he has any kids, or if he does, he's not allowed to see them.

I mean, that *is* traditionally British, I can't argue with them there

Won't they just brazenly lie? They don't seem to have any problem with that on other subjects.

This sounds like the modern spiritual cousin of emailing yourself a document to copy it to a different computer

Does it make it even worse that he doesn't believe any of what he's saying?

It'll probably be one night only at least, by the next day the soreness should subside.

Ah, ninety percent. I knew I'd heard something to that effect somewhere. I must have partly conflated it with the pareto principle.

The right still does not give AF, they just find it useful for their purposes at present.

It's Tuesday, that means it's time for a Labour relaunch

There is a county actually called Rutland, but that's in the East Midlands which is clearly no place to set a Jilly Cooper story.

I believe in credit where it's due, and it was actually Labour who were even earlier helping to make immigration a permanently vexatious issue, feeding the tabloid press stories about "bogus asylum seekers". Sins that you can pin on the Tories are austerity and Brexit.

Then they wonder why no-one wants to vote for that

(Actually they don't, they just blame the left)

I'm quite certain these people think it cannot be fascism unless it literally says "heil Hitler" and lives in Germany in the 1930s.

I suspect a large part of it is also, "the Left tends to support the Palestinians, we shall therefore do the opposite" as simple as that.
