  1. State schools are paid for out of taxes. Private schools claim to be charities.
  2. At last you’ve posted something I agree with. Starmer said it a few weeks back, the Tories were grandstanding ‘stop the boats’ while operating open border policies. In the immediate aftermath of the BREXIT vote the Tories went cap I hand to India and The Philippines looking for cheap immigrant workers - cheaper than the EU workers and British workers they were to replace. And the people who voted for that think Farage is the answer.
  3. “That was in the 60s. Since then woke has won and US schools IMO produce mediocre results. No kids want to be a mathematician now, aspiring to be in "media".” Ramaswamy points the finger at something that is the antithesis of ‘woke’. Refer OP.
  4. Please let me know in a thread I which the topic is the hostages.
  5. Like I said, nobody is forcing ing you to believe anyone. The death of any baby is a tragedy. Try spending less time on whataboutary and use the time she to reintroduce yourself to a little humanity.
  6. Nothing to see here: https://www.newsweek.com/jared-kushner-says-15bn-qatar-uae-came-irrespective-trump-win-2004895
  7. You don’t need numbers. You can discus the actual case that is the subject of this thread.
  8. 1. Nobody is forcing you to believe anyone. 2. Your callous disregard for these reported deaths is all your own. 3. The topic is not Bono or children dying in Africa.
  9. The Tory Party hasn’t been ‘moderate center right’ for over a decade.
  10. Congratulations, you hat the thread’s Godwin Gong.
  11. There’s some details behind these data. Firstly, favorability is a fickle thing, Farage enjoys 28% favorability on the basis of talking a lot, he’s not in a position to deliver anything. Likewise, Badenoch has no means to do anything other than criticize, but she has a choice to make, attack Labour or attack Reform. Right now she’s vacillating between the two. Starmer and Reaves on the other-hand are in power and are enacting the policies to deliver on manifesto promises. They are wisely enacting the unpopular fiscal changes and the policies that will deliver improvements for voters early. Spending on health care, education, public services will start to deliver the improvements the voting public demand. Starmer and Reaves are the only people in that list that can change public perception by delivering on promises. Badenoch and Farage attacking each other (while she’s still head of the Tory Party) will only help the shift in public perception towards the reality of who’s delivering and who’s bickering.
  12. Pump up the racism and xenophobia genie to gain support and win an election and then face the difficult problem of putting the genie back in the box. "A culture that celebrates the prom queen over the math olympiad champ, or the jock over the valedictorian... will not produce the best engineers," Ramaswamy is on this point entirely correct. Somebody tell Cernovich the bit immigrants played in the whole space program. Getting it off the ground even.
  13. He isn’t stopping anything. Starmer is in office and is delivering on Labour’s manifesto promises, hardly any definition of failure.
  14. They aren’t really members, they are subscribers. They get to pay, but have no say in the selection of candidates, the leader or ‘party’ policies. But it’s wound Badenoch up and looks like it will continue to split the rightwing vote.
  15. This was a predicted outcome of BREXIT, EU national immigrants being replaced by immigrants from Asia and Africa. You’ll find it filed under ‘Project Fear’.
  16. I’m not a fan of solar panels on farmland, but what can be done to stop a landowner doing what they wish with the land they own when it extends, as we see here, to the eviction of a third generation tenant farming family. It’s a way bigger problem than simply solar panels on farmland land.
  17. I didn’t suggest they should go to your country. They have a home in Palestine, I thought I had been clear on my of that matter.
  18. Murray is smart enough to know precisely what he is doing as he plays to gallery and lends his name in support of islamaophobia and any other phobia that gets the cheep seats jeering.
  19. Because, not surprising that you focus on the UK’s Labour Party and their winter fuel policy in a thread discussing (big hint here): “Three Palestinian babies freeze to death in Gaza as winter sets in” Stuck record comes to mind.
  20. Circumvent the propaganda from both sides. Give the world’s news reporters free access to report independently and directly from the camp. Surely they’re not going to be in the way of any military action or betraying the location of troops while reporting from a refugee camp.
  21. I would agree that both sides are operating a propaganda campaign but that isn’t a reason to disbelieve everything except what your preferred side has to say. A new born child in a tent encampment dying of hyperthermia is not at all unbelievable and masks other obscenity of a civilian population being displaced into a camp by military attacks on their homes. Anyway, it’s Christmas, don’t let me interrupt the flow of callous spleen venting.
