The very next thing I read... "The new politics is the Green Party Vs Reform" - Polanski Hopefully that card will be fast tracked 🙂

I remember May as being someone who talked a lot about it, while little changed. It's the results people are interested in, not various excuses as to why they don't do what they say they will do. If it's people's number 1 concern, and they now vote Reform then that's their right. Both Conservatives and Labour governments have had plenty of opportunity. If Reform fall flat on their faces, make lives even worse for people and make horrendous decisions elsewhere, hopefully they will vote for someone else next time.

It's an issue that both Conservatives and Labour governments have paid lip service to for decades. They've only themselves to blame if people hold them to account for it. I doubt it's the only issue that applies to people's voting for Reform either.

Rohl has lost more league games (3) this season than Martin did (1). 🙂

"It's a matter of trust" said someone from labour. In other news, all parties are reassessing their immigration policies after 2 million die, after their sides split with laughter over political hypocrisy. I'm forming the opinion that some politicians have to stop standing because the length of their nose making troughing impossible. The SNP can't move on from Salmond as some of the people involved in that, are still in office. More broadly, and they aren't alone here, is that there's a controlling group that purged anyone who they felt to be a threat. Morality and decency were never factors for them.

While on the topic of champions of democracy, such as Reform and the Greens, an SNP councillor has been jailed for sexual assault against 5 men. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c5yrwd2n3weo While that's bad enough, the SNP went out of it's way to silence and cover up the incidents, going as far as plotting to oust others from the party who raised concerns, or complained about how those concerns were dealt with. The guilty party was seen as a rising star in the party, and has plenty of photos with Sturgeon. More on behaviour that was indulged for over a decade, here. https://wingsoverscotland.com/in-your-name/#more-137374

The front page of the Times, is saying that Polanski's boob hypnotism was given when not a full member of the National Council of Hypnotherapy! If, like me, you look to make sure that all of your completely worthwhile hypnotherapy is Council accredited, this is something of a betrayal. Fortunately, despite the course, I wasn't looking to have glamour-moobs, and I'm happy with them as they are. Although, I do wonder if having one slightly larger than the other is due to him not having a full membership. Oh, and there was a reminder that he was claiming to be a Red Cross Spokesperson, when he wasn't. Faking credit for helping some of the world's most vulnerable for personal gain. Another political champion of integrity and honesty leads his party into the elections!

Sadly, the opening sentence wasn't "to keep him safely out of the way." The Beeb article quotes are at pains to point out the donations were made before Farage declared publically, that he was going to stand. Rayner seems to be wanting Starmer to announce a time table of departure, after Thursday. Like Blair did. But mainly to give her more time to sort out that HMRC issue. But she presumably feels it's important to resolve. Or at least that her acceptance depends on it. Farage? He would just laugh such things off and plough on. I give Ed Davey and Labour what I think is fair criticism. But Farage, as was Johnson, are on a different level of repulsive.

Somehow, I don't think Everton will be giving us £35million for him.

I caught something on Times radio saying there were 30 rear admirals. It might have said you could have a rear admirals on every available, decent sized ship we have, and have plenty to spare. So, more money saving by abolishing the rank of Captain. Rear Admirals overseeing immigrant manned ships, supplied by our new third party, the French people smugglers. Obviously, when we get enough ships/small boats we shall invade Brittany. Reclaiming our rightful land. While also cutting out our middle person's. This right wing leadership is easy! You just need the one thing. To be a sociopath. Looks at other parties, and notices similar personalities...

I'm in the same...ah...maybe saying "same boat" isn't the best expression. A bit of tactical voting for me too. But they are more centrist than wherever the broader party wants to pull them on any given week. And local policy wise tick more boxes than the others.

It's a plan. But there's a cost to the street snatchers. Why not a Defence Spending Bill gives the Navy money for fast gunboats. Money they'd be getting anyway. Combined with a Channel Crossing amendment, they now have target practice. There. A reduction on "punishment" that locals have to put up with. If we're going to shed pesky things like decency for control and cost effectiveness. "Right Wing is still right!" Vote Jodhpur Militia this Thursday!

Interesting. No question that Manning's goals and delivery have been important. He's had a number of excellent defensive moments too. Like a lot of the team, I think there are factors that give everyone a boost. Larin, and LND's return, giving us a different option up front Tonda tactics, with clarity, and directness Still struggled with. Peretz making us a lot more confident at the back. For Manning, Bree's return really helps our defense as a unit. It allows Manning to finally have that more forward role he had at Swansea. KWP stopped him having it here. And as mentioned, Welington being fit enough to challenge, but not fit enough to keep a place. Good to see so many different players getting plaudits.
