The Poolie Bunker

What a shithouse he really is.

Unfortunately not enough journalists question Reforms monetary policies and how they are going to fund them, cutting immigration numbers was their main theme but like all the others they just pick numbers out the hat with no real legal way of stopping it. Farage also said the policy to increase the tax-free personal allowance to £20,000, estimated to cost between £50bn and £80bn, was now “a goal we should ­aspire for” meaning direct one's hopes or ambitions towards achieving it, therefore not going to implement it if Reform got into government.

once that would have been the policy of a labour government and what losses it made would be paid for by adding a pence ot two on the higher earners tax.

ohhh, heres is the looney lefties........ Is starmer not a horrible 'lovely lovely person' as well??? Is Brashy not a horrible 'lovely lovely person' as well????

Can anyone remember an opposition party who's stated aspirations were ever more than fantasy? Including the present Labour party who like many suspected are now purely a party of protest with no real policies to back up any of their manifesto. Politics in the UK is broken and most likely unfixable as politicians have got the system that suits them best.

Labour were going to 'smash the gangs'. Anyone with half a brain knew that was fantasy.

Every other party has pledges they make to get elected, very few have fulfilled them, Reform have been found out that their policies would create a bigger black hole than Truss ever did ending up with the Bank of England having to bail us out and interest rates went up. Its better finding out now rather than waiting to G.E. to find out manifestos can’t be adhered to. Farage face is never out the news but journalists never take him to task giving him an easy ride, it is known he refuses to be interviewed by some journalists.

Why wouldn’t he refuse interviews with those who have been hostile to him in the past…they must be dumb as a rock if they can’t work out why they’re getting ignored.

The same journalists who failed to question Labour and their policies before the last election?

Jamie can’t forgive Nigel for us leaving the EU……He’s a fan really.

He's seen the Reform Polls lead..He's seen Starmer humiliated by Trump..not the best of weeks for the lefties eh.

Whatever you lefties might think, or rather hope, you’re going to get a 400 seat reform government. True, Reform may be a one story party at the moment but you forget that this a one issue country. The majority of Britain don’t like this invasion of illegals and the other parties have shot their bolt.

No because they will ask him questions he can’t give an honest answer to.

Totally agree, we left the EU because of the issue and where did that get us, before leaving the EU very few if any boats arrived albeit a few on wagons, after leaving the EU 1000s have arrived on boats. Who promoted leaving the EU, Farage, so now we are going to elect a leader who by his policy of leaving the EU encouraged 1000s to cross the channel.
The phrase "be careful what you wish for" is a warning that getting what you want may have negative or unforeseen consequences. It suggests that a wish might not turn out as expected, and you may regret it once it comes true. The full version is often "be careful what you wish for; you might get it".
Of the 400 prospective MPs I hope Reform vet them better than they did for the locally elected councillors, at least 20 have been sacked, suspended etc already for misconduct.

Never will do, snake oil salesman, I am very surprised a man of your intelligence can’t see through him Snowy.

One thing for sure Starmer is not a leftie, any left wing leaning MP gets the whip removed, in the States 1000s turned out for the ‘No Kings’ protests, Trump iis becoming very unpopular, he must be running out of people he can fire or prosecute to try and defend his alleged lies and corruptions.

Are you saying he’s dishonest…?

Unpopular with the bumbling Democrats, no surprise there.

That puzzles me aswell Jamie.

Any idea who were the super intelligent posters who put Starmer in power ??

You vote by whatever the party manifesto you support and by the performance of the previous government, it wasn’t difficult for many not to vote Conservative after 14 years of austerity.

I have never referred to the bloke.
Never praised him or criticised him.
Opinions vary, I never kid myself my opinion on something is shared by everyone else, but some people are surprised if everyone doesn’t agree with them.
I’m watching with interest because Labour and Tory’s are crumbling before our eyes.
I’m not interested who wins but interested in who fucks up in office.
We live in interesting times

All politicians are liberal with the truth and have a temporary loss of memory at times, it’s inbred in them,

again brexit getting the blame for everything. its not just this country getting the dinghy divers its the whole of the EU as well. nobody in there right minds want illegals hear especially how they are getting looked after where there problems are not ours as we have others on top that do not affect them.

reform voters will consist of many who called themselves left wing once and the present labour government is far away from them as it is for anyone else. starmer and his mate blair are globalists first and foremost and only popular with the middle class new left and students.

I dare bet most people have never had their hands on a copy of a manifesto, never mind read it.

It will be full of spelling mistakes.

People generally vote for the Party they always voted for, they don’t think, they just do it.
Things are now breaking up for the first time, it may come to nothing, it may not.
Personally, I’ll vote for whoever offers me the best deal, I have no loyalty to any Party…I hold my nose and mark the ballot paper….call me a cynic.
Funny how people’s loyalty to a Party can triumph over their general life…and none of them impress me enough to follow them.

Best wait till they come into power..Anything Farage says now will have to be adjusted.We have financial idiots in power if you haven't realised,jamie... i'm not having a pop at you like.

The Dublin Convention has never worked in the EU..they lost control of it all years ago...they're shifty bastads,never trust them,jamie.

"after leaving the EU 1000s have arrived on boats. Who promoted leaving the EU, Farage". So you blame Farage for the small boats? What a load of mindless, lefty shoit.

1. Farage was a key campaigner for Brexit (there were others) but once the decision was made he had zero role in implementing the exit strategy because he was not in government and still isn't. The Tories made a mess of the withdrawal strategy how is Farage in any way palpable? He didnt make the decisions or write the policy.
2. The numbers arriving in the boats have accelerated since the Labour government were elected due to their weak, pish poor policies on illegal immigration shining a bright green light to the illegals. Nowt to do with Farage.

You really should try to engage your brain before you post messages on here because all you do is make yourself look as though you went to Dyke House.

Not as many as arrived under the Conservative government, average the arrivals out over their time
in government. The numbers have accelerated because they are worried new measures will be introduced to make it more difficult in the future to cross the channel.
You need to check your facts before engaging your brain instead of gleaming your info from GB News etc.

It worked to a certain degree as we never had the 1000s arrive before Brexit.

I like your terminology ‘adjusted’ you could say the current government have ‘adjusted’ some of their manifesto. Tice has put it another way, Reform UK may need to rethink its pledge to deliver £90bn of tax cuts, the party's deputy leader Richard Tice has suggested. Doesn’t rethink or adjusted mean the same ?

Jamie, 99% of ALL politicians are windbags who don’t even blush when speaking…… fact is the public are pissed off with the Tories and Labour, the LibDems are a party with the mindset of tiresome social workers who’ve been sniffing something and the rest are just loons ……
The Tory’s have collapsed and Starmer has wasted his opportunity by being naively incompetent and as socialist as Genghis Khan…..Reform in the present state of politics are knocking at an open door with the welcome mat out…….things can change, everything is of the moment, but shows the dismal standard of so called politicians we have now running things.
It’s the way of the world nowadays….sadly.

1.The Tories were in power for 14 years so obviously the number of illegals will be larger than the numbers under Labour in power for less than a year but currently there are record numbers arriving on a regular basis. There is no doubt. If we had 14 years of Labour government the numbers of illegals would be astronomical.
2. How do you know the numbers are increasing because they are "worried new measures will be introduced"? Have you carried out a survey or are you making things up?
3.I post opinions based upon my understanding of the world as i see it. I don't follow a political dogma based on class and pure naked prejudice.

I never understand those who take a political stance for life and never change.
I’m an opportunist who votes for those who will make my life better in a legal and moral sense…and no Party has the syndicate on morals or beliefs, even though they and their limited horizon followers all think they do.

The numbers are increasing because they're welcomed with open arms and then treat better than our own citizens in many respects - free bed and board, easy access to GPs and dentists, mobile phones and pocket money. While we've currently got record numbers of kids in poverty.

The world of GB News, The Mail, Sun, Telegraph etc, they don’t print anything about the world, they print what they want people to believe and the gullible are taken in hook line and sinker.
Now this is fact Asylum seekers are eligible for asylum support from the government, but this does not include a mobile phone, although phones were given to asylum seekers during the coronavirus pandemic and some charities also provide phones to asylum seekers. Asylum seekers receive £9.95 per person a week if their meals are provided with their accommodation, and £49.18 a week if not.
Could you feed yourself for just under £50 a week, how far would £9.95 go ?

Another topic I will stop replying to, only one member ever comes up with sensible answers others just post what they read or listen to on MSM or as call it bar stool talk.

Only one member Jamie, surely we have more than one sensible poster on here?

I see you got your avatar up and running.

You're away with the fairies..Maybe you should take a look at the papers to see why everybody's angry at court cases involving illegals involved in violence ,repeat offenders,whole families involved in fraud..multiple cases..Take a look around the streets..You're just being pig ignorant!

Well said Sussex.

Why are you banging on about mobile phones and how much money the illegals are given? I made no mention of this. My issue with your outpourings is your assertion that Farage is to blame for the boats when he so obviously is not. This is pure lefty shoit born from thr realisation that the liberal left uniparty way of governing is under threat from Farage and the Reform party. All the polls indicate this.

Where do YOU get YOUR news from Jamie because you're obviously not living in the shit hole the UK is rapidly becoming?
The people who are complaining are those of us walking the walk and seeing the problems first hand, not purporting to be an expert from the other side of the world.

Simple, if they don’t come here they won’t have a so called ‘problem’.

I was looking for the SMiley that said "Good Post" but I cant seem to find it. Anyway, PTID: Good Post

I don't read newspapers, stopped buying them years ago and have never watched GB news but I do travel around the country a lot and I do keep my eyes open. My local town centre is becoming a self imposed no go area for locals, especially women who feel intimidated by illegal invaders.
I am neither pro Farage or against him but we are letting hordes of potential "Islamic warriors" into our communities and ordinary folk who normally have the live and let live attitude are becoming vociferous and all that is emanating from fear. They are looking for help, leadership and a solution and the only person offering that is Farage, which is why he is so popular. It is as simple as that.
Starmer said quite specifically that in order to sort this problem out he was going to smash the gangs. So he also thinks it's a problem but, as we all can see, he is pandering to them, which is encouraging more to come. The numbers don't lie and he hasn't got a clue as to how to respond.
This present Government is a joke, a shambles, a rudderless ship and it needs to either step up or hold up it's collective hands and allow someone else to have a go before it's too late.
Even Jamie is chucking the towel in because he and his political agenda is being exposed by the sensible lads on here.
The Irony here is a rank out and out left wing zealot is telling the rest of us we're gullible. Unfortunately for you Jamie we're not.

My take on this is that Reform is nothing without Farage and without him the party would not get the level of support it currently enjoys. If some crap is dug up about him (which i am sure the other parties are frantically looking for or have but are keeping their powder dry) i can see some voters moving back to a re-branded Conservative party. How this will play out in terms of MPs is very difficult to say but i think it's possible that some kind of coalition government will exist after the next GE either Labour/Liberal/Green or Reform/Tory.
Any ideas of the odds on this as a punt now may be worth it.
Forget the politics think about the money.

I can include you Stocksfield as well so that makes 2 in fact there are 3 posters who show common sense when posting, you also come up with some common sense topics.
I managed the avatar ok once you reduced the size for me thanks again.
I will tell you where and what I read and listen to on politics.Times Radio,The Newsagents, Joe Blogs, LBC, Truth to Power, DW News,The Rest is Politics, Daily Blasé, Political World, Sky News, Politics Joe, Gary Stevensons Economics all on YouTube.
Loads of other stuff I subscribe to on YouTube, footy, cars repairs, music, archive stuff from years ago etc, you like music from the 60/70s a band called Leonid and Friends is a great watch and listen to, whole bunch of Eastern European musicians, they perform all over The States.
