Re: Chaos in Government

Nadhim Zahawi is complaining about press 'smears' about his tax situation.

Shocking if true. Tax avoidance is all legal! And he's the only one allowed to smear others (see his 'time to go 'letter to BlowJo).

Not sure if he did anything illegal, but MP's have to declare their financial interests for ethical reasons

When did leadership campaign videos become a thing? They are all ridiculous, although I did like the Wales v Ukraine footage in Penny Mordaunts

Forget that, what about the joke? 9/10?

Definitely not that. What's the lowest score a narcissist would accept?

In Sunak's case I think Autumn 2021

It's been in Hollywood post production for months.

Re: Chaos in Government

Sunak has seemed to be fighting a leadership campaign since the moment he was appointed Chancellor (Feb 2020?). It certainly felt like there was an element of PR company backing behind him from the early days of his Chancellorship.

Incidentally, one thing I will genuinely give the Tories credit for is that as many as eight of the candidates (assuming Patel runs) come from ethnic minorities - wonder what one of the main contributors to this thread makes of that?

It is good to see a broad reflection of society. That said, they would no doubt all state that it is irrelevent, rather than using their identities it as a means to gather support, and that also deserves credit in my book. ie, the focus is on them, not their background

Re: Chaos in Government

I'm not even sure that moderators read the politics forum. I'm "gaslighting" you now, am I? The victim complex you have is very telling. You were neglected as a child (and unloved as an Incel adult) is my guess. Yes, I am capable of pseudo-psychological diagnoses too.

You're deflecting to avoid talking about white Catholic terrorism in the UK again because it doesn't suit your narrative that terrorism is only committed by brown people.

The 1927 post obviously wasn't supposed to be taken seriously I was just pointing out the coincidence that your username contained the date of the Nazi party's most infamous rally which featured a certain Adolf Hitler (I don't know why I'm explaining that to you, your copy of Mein Kampf is probably in need of replacing due to excessive wear and tear).

I'm done with this conversation and this forum. You were wrong about me trying to "manipulate the moderators". I'm not happy about being a member of a forum which allows hate speech to be freely voiced.

The moderators can choose what they allow to be posted but it doesn't mean that I have to be associated with it.

Not very Machiavellian of me, is it? (Rhetorical question).

Adiós.

You clearly made an appeal to the moderators because someone has a differing opinion. Nobody will associate you with any views other than your own, thats how it works in a public space and you know it. Plus, you are anonymous.

No victim complex, Questioning someones sanity and making allegations then reeling back, claiming it were a joke is an attempt to gaslight.

The difference between my assessment and yours, you're wildly speculating about my childhood and whether i have sex or not. I pointed out your Machiavellian behaviour in this thread.

There's no such thing as Irish Catholic terrorism, you're making terms up lol

The IRA and Sinn Fein are Nationalists, they wanted independence and a unified Ireland. That's it. I do not condone They're bombing campaign. From what i can tell, Sinn Fein are pro abortion and pro gay marriage. Not very Catholic of them is it. Also, From what i can tell from afar, they do not oppose mass immigration from the 3rd world, most of whom are not Catholic.

Sad that you quit, but I won't miss your baseless allegations.

Adios.

I'd be more interested in their real agendas, not their stated agendas, and if they can fulfil their promises.

Re: Chaos in Government

Their real agendas are all the same, and primitive in their simplicity ... MONEY, POWER, STATUS. Some things never change

Exactly, and some on the list seem to be under the influence of the WEF.

The Tory leadership candidates want credit for telling Boris Johnson to go. But here's what they recently said about him. pic.twitter.com/waYWUYagEm
