    I’m sure some people here would. Or Farage, who would implement similarly disastrous economics.

    The mind truly boggles.

    As the tinpot generals and the politician office clerks who have never heard a shot fired in anger turn up the “Let’s start a war with Russia” rhetoric to 11, it is worth digging up this one again.

    I used to work for the NHS and I was one of very few office staff that had a flu jab every year. The doctors all had one and couldn’t understand why the staff refused them

    This seems to be the case generally across the NHS and it does seem very strange. I would proffer the reason why the percentage not being vaccinated is skewed below the average is due to the significant number of foreign nationals employed who have ingrained cultural/religious reasons to be wary of vaccination

    Let me guess, the begging bowl will soon be coming out for increased ‘defence spending’.

    Not to worry, I’m sure all the ‘patriots’ who spend their days hanging cheap flags from lampposts and ranting about immigrants on Twitter will be first in line to defend ‘their country’. Surely it’s not all virtue signalling?

    I think you have missed the point about foreign wars.

    I have little doubt the public would do what they could to defend their own country if they felt it was under threat. But the days of being expected to participate in foreign ventures of dubious legality and morality at the behest of bankers, the industrial/military complex and a corrupt political class are over. No one believes their lies anymore, especially via their mouthpiece the BBC.

    Our dim politicians and dimmer generals ought to learn that fast. Because if they so much as dare ask for people to get involved in their grubby dispute with Russia, they will get the biggest f off of all time.

    I find it hilarious that Labour boasts about bringing down interest rates ….
    …by increasing unemployment
    …and stifling the economy
    … ask what happened to growth and the business friendly attitude they expressed before the GE?
    over and over Starmer and Reeves promise to grow the economy only to find their deeds fail to match their words.
    ‘Reevescession’ …..is spoken of.
    good luck to all

    It looks like the government is doing its best to not comply with the Supreme Court’s very clear ruling on single sex spaces.

    In other news: Labour wonders why it is on a pitiful 14% in the latest published opinion poll and why Starmer is loathed by so much of the public.

    If Russia declared war on western Europe – or vice versa – then it’d be almost certain that Conscription would be introduced, possibly bolstered by something akin to 18th century Impressment for those giving the big two-fingers to the call-up

    Farewell a young generation, farewell the rest of us, farewell civilisation

    Fearmongering – be it war, flu epidemics, terrorism, forriners…whatever has been a tactic used by governments throughout history: keeping the public anxious with warnings about unlikely dangers keeps the plebeian mind distracted from the genuine problems faced individually and collectively occurring in the here and now

    Russia can’t defeat Ukraine , it has no chance defeating NATO and Putin knows that

    Read an amusing article over the weekend and if you thought things couldn’t look any worse for the inept BBC, think again, Mastermind once had a reputation for intellectual rigour but it seems even that bastion has been breached by the constant dumbing down of it’s programmes.
    Questions on the celebrity version included ……
    “Woof woof and bow wow are representations of the sound made by what domestic pet?”
    “The term veg as in fruit and veg, is an abbreviation for what type of food stuff?”
    “Beef is a meat from what farm animals?”
    “Which cardinal point on a compass is represented by the letter S?”
    Questions even David Lammy couldn’t have got wrong?
    good luck to all

    I seem to remember this happening to a government in the 70’s

    I've stumbled on the side of twelve misty mountains
    I've walked and I crawled on six crooked highways
