I provided links above. Polls suggest a very large majority of people believe ‘Sir’ will do a lot better.

Oh, so racism doesn’t exist then.

I don’t have the foggiest idea why you are singling me out to discuss this hypothetical situation you’ve dreamed up. Your question is any case ambiguous.

The courts and juries disagree

Not at all, your English is better than that of most Brits on the forum.

That wasn’t a ‘simple point’ it was a ‘simplistic point’. There’s a far from subtle difference.

Your retreat to the use of ‘trashy woke journalism’ is noted. I wonder, on what basis did the ECHR intervene? https://www.france24.com/en/live-news/20220615-how-did-a-europe-court-halt-britain-s-rwanda-deportation-flight Here’s the best bit, this failed policy is costing millions. It’s amazing how easily the promise of a bit of cruelty to others can sucker some into supporting such predictable waste of money. The scheme doesn’t work but makes you feel good to see someone less fortunate than yourself being subjected to the vindictive use of power. I’ll take the ‘woke’ any day over such vile nastiness.

You need to take that up with the UK Government and the Office of National Statistics. I’m sure your experience and expertise in data collection and analysis will be greatly appreciated.

Here’s the law ‘Justice’ Thomas broke in plain sight: https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/28/455

I’m trying to figure out what relevant point you are trying to make by, once again, ranting about migrants.

Correct, it’s a tragedy. But in the context of this discussion, there something worse than ‘understatement’, denial. Nobody who follows the UK news has any excuse for not being aware that millions of people in the UK are unable to afford regular meals, that millions of school children are turning up hungry. It’s wide reported in the press. And yet we have the usual suspects denying this reality, demanding they be shown evidence, which they ignore anyway. It’s a callous denial of the suffering of others that defines the rightwing.

In 2020/21, before the cost of living crisis bit, the UK Government published a report stating “In 2020/21, 4.2 million people (6%) were in food poverty, including 9% of children. Wriggle away: https://commonslibrary.parliament.uk/research-briefings/cbp-9209/

Up next ‘Tory Austerity 2’. The bit where an unelected PM, cosseted by his tax avoiding wife’s billions tells the already struggling nation they need to cut back on public spending and services. This isn’t going to end well.

I tried the informative post with credible links attached. A waste of time, reality can’t get through, except of course for the millions struggling to feed themselves, pay their bills and keep a roof over their head. It is they that will decide the next election. Sticking one’s head in the sand to deny reality isn’t going to help, but I guess it provides short term relief from unwelcome facts.

It’s target audience isn’t too bright.

Now you are trolling.

Quit gaslighting already. The hike in UK mortgage interest rates was a direct result of the idiot Tory mini budget. And here’s a thing, people in the UK witnessed it happening, people in the UK are facing massively increased mortgage payments. Those people aren’t in the least bit concerned about what’s happening elsewhere, their focus is feeding their families, paying their bills and keeping a roof over their heads. If ignoring these realities provides you with some comfort don’t make the mistake of believing it comforts those facing real hardship.

Holding cops accountable for extrajudicial killings is good thing. If cops are inclined not to go around murdering people, that too is a good thing. Its certainly not a portent of the ‘Cassandrian doom’ you are so fond of.

I think viewing anything that comes out of the Kremlin as lies and misinformation is probably a good place to start. Unfortunately the Kremlin knows they can rely on what they refer to as ‘useful idiots’ to back their propaganda and psychological warfare.

By example, It wasn’t COVID that just hiked mortgage rates.

I can’t say there’s any pleasure in demonstrating this truth to you: https://www.sustainweb.org/news/voicesofthehungry/ https://www.trusselltrust.org/2018/03/19/calls-grow-government-measure-hidden-hunger/ https://www.bigissue.com/news/social-justice/food-poverty-in-the-uk-the-causes-figures-and-solutions/

I’m not sure anything this Government has done to the UK can be reasonably described as ‘progressive’. I’m very much in favour of this Government serving its full term, tge Tories need to deal with the mess they have created.

How about addressing my post and pointing out which of the observations I have made are incorrect? The polls suggest the voting public disagree with you alternative options.

Nothing cryptic at all, just the latest example of the outrage and offense you claim doesn’t exist. Importing claimed ‘off forum’ views to insert whataboutary and to feed to need to be offended. Anything at all to avoid discussing the topic of the thread, including feigned confusion.

Sunak won’t be able to hold the Tories together. The economy is already in recession, 8 million people in the UK can’t afford regular meals, the NHS is collapsing ( before winter), mortgage interest rates are climbing, electrical power isn’t guaranteed through the winter, schools are running out of money, GP waiting times are over two weeks, getting an NHS dentist appointment is near on impossible, industrial action is increasing, leveling up never happened, ‘sunny uplands’ can’t be found. And they s week’s Prime Minister is warning of hard times to come, seemingly unaware that for many millions ‘hard times are already here’.
