And the difference is that one is legal and one is illegal. Motivation the same, legality not. The law is kind of important, would you not agree?

I was talking about the US, and saying it was the same as the UK. So who would you blame for the lack of housing in the US (the topic of this thread) when the Dems have been in for 12 of the last 16 years?

The Democrats have been in power for 12 of the last 16 years. So it would appear logical to blame them.

Excellent. Get him on the next flight then.

The difference being whether the migration was legal or illegal. Quite a big difference.

Same in the UK. Bring in loads of people, don't build houses for them to live and wonder why there is a housing shortage. Same with healthcare, schools etc. It's a clown show. Makes Liberals feel virtuous though.

Very few. A minority have working class roots, but it's hard to argue that someone on an MP's salary with multiple perks, second home allowances, accepts expensive gifts from lords etc. is truly working class. Especially when they appear to hate anyone that is proud of their country, enjoys a cigarette in the pub garden on a Friday night, drives a white van, flies their countries flag during the World Cup, wishes to preserve their own culture, wants their own countrymen to take precedence over illegal immigrants, wants sovereignty from the EU etc. Labour in particular seem to have a disdain/disregard for white, working class people. Especially pensioners.

Agree. These "donations" are essentially bribes in 99% of cases.

That's one option. Or maybe Starmer could declare them as per the rules. And not claim to "forget". Then we could have an independent body that assessed whether such a donation created a conflict of interest or was essentially a bribe.

Yes it's a fairly obvious, common sense solution. Not farangs. Liberals. Thailand is blessed to be mainly devoid of Liberals in the western (now hijacked) sense of the word, except in the expat population and they are smart enough to ignore those.

It makes them feel "special", and might even provide a route into the women's changing rooms.

More research required i.e. here's another horror story to scare you into continued funding of our cushy research jobs. Well according to you, it can't be. So to conclude, please provide more money to allow us to continue our research (and funding of our doomsday cult) into the "doomsday" glacier that nothing can be done about. Climate alarmism seems like a decent gig.

She'll jump on any bandwagon and never seems to think it through. Which explains her support of Harris.

She claims to be. Claims long since debunked. https://www.34st.com/article/2023/06/taylor-swift-matt-healy-intersectionality-white-feminism

It would certainly be a good idea while posting on here.

It's certainly going to be interesting to learn which vocal Dem supporters were at Diddy's Freakoff parties. I hope he doesn't get Epsteined.

So we've diverted to the source, and now we are diverting to Fox news and Trump. 😄 I'll try for the third time. What about Starmer's conflict of interest accepting gifts from Premier League clubs?

No surprise there. He was an awful head of the CPS and he's an awful PM. Prosecute Saville? Naaahhhh. Support jailing people sounding off on FaceBook? Absolutely.

Extremely old pics there Billy. You're reaching... 😂

The lefties don't take it seriously unless it comes from their bible. Even though it's Liberal nonsense 99% of the time, quoting The Guardian saves wasting with the "That's from [another newspaper] so I will attack the source and ignore the content" replies. So, with that in mind, what about the clear conflict of interest? Or are you using the source to deflect from the content again, even though it IS The Guardian? 😄

Taylor has form in being on the wrong side of history. Most of her songs are about poor choices. Her support of Harris is no different. Here she is with her friend Diddy.

It's a clear conflict of interest. https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2024/sep/19/keir-starmers-35k-in-free-tickets-puts-football-regulator-plans-under-scrutiny

That's a Labour trait. What's that saying? Oh I remember - "The left are exactly what they accuse you of". https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/rochester-byelection-labour-mp-emily-thornberry-apologises-for-white-transit-van-and-england-flags-tweet-9874088.html

Exactly. It's Labours turn at the trough and aren't they making the most of it. https://www.smh.com.au/world/europe/frockgate-keir-starmer-s-love-for-freebies-ends-his-short-lived-honeymoon-20240920-p5kc2t.html

Indeed. Labelling her political opponents "Scum" and then showing her true colours as soon as she gets a whiff of power. "Clean up politics", you said Keir? Tell me more... 😄
