Had to laugh at some Tory banging on just now about how much worse murder, with elements of sadism is.
Hey! fucknut! You are describing Suella Braverman. Also much of the recent cabinets. Also several recent prime ministers.
-
Record hospital waiting lists.
Fascistic home secretary inciting violence.
Prime minister probably banning imaginary taxes, or something.
Same shit, different day.
-
I think Braverman may finally be sacked over her Times article. Which is quite probably what she wants to happen. I'm sure she'd also love a riot on Saturday.

Poor old Pete, he went out for a quiet night at a concert and ended up having his collar felt www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-67360696

I’m not so sure. The far right cranks run that party, if Sunak sacks her he will likely be gone soon after.
What a country we live in

"The Movement " runs the Conservative Party. Don't you read what Nadine tells you?
-
If he doesn't he looks even weaker than he already does.
-
I don't think there are enough Tory MPs who think that removing Sunak would do anything other than making them look ridiculous. They are just waiting until they lose the next election for the real bloodletting to start.
-
Whether she stays or goes before the next election, part of me hopes that she ousts Sunak to become Tory leader in opposition, thus all but guaranteeing a second Labour term. Another part of me thinks that having her anywhere in the public sphere just poisons the water for everyone. So, to paraphrase D Attenborough on Trump, "can't somebody just shoot her?".

It's pretty clear that having a stupid fascist as the leader of one of the two parties that might be the government is a bad thing. However much it might help the other party.
-
Not necessarily. I'm sure there were plenty of Tories who regarded Corbyn as a 'stupid communist' and were delighted by his leadership of Labour for the exact same reason. Britain is a weird country because our elections are always won by the party that takes the centre ground, despite having no strong centrist party. Braverman would just ensure that Labour continues to hold that centre ground.
-
It's just perception and labels though. NZ's Ardern was a centrist Blairite PM (with a shirtload of intelligence, charisma and empathy), but was called a communist and socialist, and so we will most likely end up with a coalition of a Trusslike RW party, a libertarian fuckwit party, and a conspiracy theory party. Because Labour was "sold" as too progressive.

Shocking news from London, where the march in support of Palestine is going off peacefully while police have so far arrested 80 "counter protesters" for disorder offences.
-
Some of the footage on Twitter is shocking. Huge gangs of right wing twats dressed in black roaming the streets.
-
It sounds like the Met are being refreshingly candid about the intentions of both groups, describing a peaceful 300K strong protest and a few hundred people on the other side intent on trouble - they even described them as right wingers. And to the surprise of absolutely no one, Stephen Yaxley-MortgageFraud (thank you JP) is there.
