For respecting democracy?

He's great in Requiem For a Dream and Mr Nobody

Works fine in Blade Runner 2049 and Fight Club

God awful in Morbius and House of Gucci

Rinse repeat every decade or so

The ONS is the one that aggregates the data

This isn't their first slip up ...it's pretty constant these days

The ONS is not fit for purpose these days

Absolutely useless

Mutti...shut up and disappear

You are toxic just like Tony Blair and Macron

Churchill never wanted Britain in an EU type organisation...just us as friends and allies to one

That's supposedly what we have now is it not?

Though as usual the EU is showing that it's not that friendly

UK steel set for further hit as EU to double tariffs

Losing access to the EU market, the largest destination for UK steel exports, would have a "catastrophic" impact on jobs, a key union said.

No it didn't...statistics on that were revised as well

UK has grown faster than Germany since Brexit and the same as France

It's now forecast to grow faster than the whole of Europe over the next decade or so

Short term pain for long term gain was discussed in 2016 so was expected

Quoting Churchill means you support Brexit...as he wanted a united European body but without the UK in it

There hasn't been peace in Europe ...the peace it has had was due to NATO

Europe's share of world trade has dropped alarmingly since the EU was created

UK is forecast to grow faster than EU

The irony

anomander73.bsky.social @anomander73.bsky.social · 21d

Why would I want to do that?

I'm not one to revel in someone else's misery haha

The Libdems have proven they are more yellow Tory than yellow Labour ...also that they have no love for democracy

They are not a party I would ever vote for

anomander73.bsky.social @anomander73.bsky.social · 21d

I spent a lot of time in 2019 telling Libdems what a mistake it was running on ignoring the referendum if you won and just staying in the EU ...none of you listened

And this is my point now?no potential Reform voters will listen to people like you over Brexit...they might over the NHS etc

anomander73.bsky.social @anomander73.bsky.social · 21d

I know you were ...and I understand how coalitions work (it's why I don't like PR ...even though there are many good things about it)

My point is you can't not just fold on a CENTRAL plank of your manifesto/persona and make it was worse in fact ...and then act surprised when you get kickback

anomander73.bsky.social @anomander73.bsky.social · 21d

I could have punctuated or wrote it more clearly I admit ...my apologies

anomander73.bsky.social @anomander73.bsky.social · 21d

No ...you said the opposite

I'm explaining why I think you're wrong

Move on from Brexit as nobody cares

Attack him over things now,like Reforms stance on the NHS or that he's obviously a grifter etc and it's a huge risk to take voting them in

People who MIGHT vote for him will be scared of that

anomander73.bsky.social @anomander73.bsky.social · 21d

So to then act like you did once you lost it is pretty hypocritical

Which again takes me back to why you think attacking Farage over Brexit is a terrible idea...that might play well to Libdem leaning voters but it's going to do the opposite for anyone who was pondering voting Reform

1 1

anomander73.bsky.social @anomander73.bsky.social · 21d

It says you're Libdem on your bio yes

I think your problem is your leader chose to act like a clown at last years GE perhaps

And then historically its...when you were in government you shafted your voters by tripling student fees after running on ending them

Plus u also wanted a Brexit referendum

He's been dead man walking for years

Someone put him out of his misery

anomander73.bsky.social @anomander73.bsky.social · 21d

Push Brexit line and all u do is give him a chance 2 say it would have been better if he had been in charge etc

End of the day it's now about immigration

If the Tories had cut immigration massively but other than that everything was exactly the same in 2024 then Labour wouldn't have won a majority

anomander73.bsky.social @anomander73.bsky.social · 21d

Must be why 73% of the electorate voted for non rejoin parties at last years General Election ...and Reform are leading polls easily now then

Weird tactics from that 89% of others in your totally invented statistic

anomander73.bsky.social @anomander73.bsky.social · 21d

That would make him even more popular

Yep

We need to see those who've gained the most over the last few decades start paying back in

If she just goes for the working and lower middle classes again then it's a suicide note
