****ing hell are they really the best examples you could come up with?

Thats from the last two days!

Re: Priti Patel issues orders to turn them boats around

Okay, 'hard left' would be a better angle. He isnt centre-left

Got any examples of that?

Hard left ffs

I would describe him as centre left

This isn't about asylum seekers per se, it is about boats crossing the channel via criminal gangs.

The two should not be conflated.

I wholly support the UK airlifts from Afghanistan last week. But I generally don't think facilitating human trafficking from Calais is good.

You’re the one conflating them to desperately defend Pritti Patel you ****ing lunatic.

Defending Pritti Patel, saying anyone opposing it is a virtue signaller, just using the phrase virtue signalling and calling David Schneider far left.

What a twat.

Yes, in the last day or so:

This is a lie

This is misleading

This is presenting a hypothetical story as reality for his followers

The blokes a political sectarian. If you are interested in the truth, I wouldnt follow him. Or follow someone on the opposite side of the spectrum for balance.

These aren't good examples to say he's 'always wrong'.

Of course it’s not about asylum seekers once you’ve seen the figures that were posted, how could you possibly justify what you’re saying otherwise?

He does get on my nerves.

He jumps on any bit of news that can be used to criticise the government whether it's correct or not

Thankfully I don't follow him

Not giving Alan Partridge a second season would have been a better example than all of them

Nothing Tory simps hate more than their team being rightly criticised

The Brexiteers are reaping what they sowed, they were fed the ‘we’ll stop the illegal immigrants’ line and fell for it hook, line & sinker. The French may have the attitude now of ‘shoo, get over there to the nearest non EU country, it’s just over that stretch of water, we’ve no alliance or allegiance to the rosbifs now’. Hypothetical and fanciful, I know, but is it? The largely right wing influenced ‘leavers’ have created the very scenario that was their worst nightmare.

And work in ticket offices at football clubs.

I was thinking of a serious answer and then spotted this.To true,to true

What a twat.

I called you a virtue signaller because you were expressing outrage over this and that without offering any alternative or practical solution.

That in turn helps no one. Makes you feel good about yourself but achieves nothing.

Not really. the numbers coming to the UK hasnt really increased. It's more than lorry-based travel has been managed and controlled better, creating this opportunity for criminal gangs to manage and control crossings via sea.

Which bafflingly, some people seem to think isnt a problem.
