Ever heard of Reform. Nigel will be PM in 2029. They are getting organised in a big way. I always thought there would be a long period of political upheaval post Brexit. We simply don't have the right calibre of MP's. They are all self serving numpties who couldn't run a bath. This Labour fiasco is absolutely typical. Utterly clueless, and of course it will all end in yet another political disaster.

We never needed a massive rise in gas and electric prices had we had a joined up plan for our own energy independence . We have been very busy doing nothing at all for donkeys years.

Same as the UKIP party members, when the public realise what kind of nominations they put forward in elections, they will quickly realise what quacks they are along with Farage. Talking shop and delivering are two very different activities.

So your excuses are - we don't have the right calibre of MP's 🤣🤣 So what happened to all the MPs who trumpeted Brexit and your leaders then?

Labour are doing really well. There housing drive is brilliant imo. Housing is what brought the countries out of the 1929 recession and also after the war. Biggest multiplier and will defo generate economic growth. You just wait and see. Will also improve productivity and services where they are needed.

As for your response to energy prices, if we did this and that doesn't solve anything. Energy independence you say... How so? UK will need to invest first to get returns out later. Where is the money going to come from?

Reform are the same. Talk a good shop but don't here any numbers from them. All wet dreames with no real delivery.

My response was that NATO is already on a war mind-set so no idea how it can be more so.

NATO needs to stop expanding and wasting resources on weapons of mass destruction. All this war drum banging is a load of rubbish. There are no winnners in wars. People do not even know what they are fighting for?

NATO is no longer a defensive alliance.

NATO is an offensive money making colonial tool trying to enforce colonial imperialism for the US of A which is on the slippery path to losing it's global supremacy.
