Dutifully Voted for the guy who said "There is no case for Rejoining the Single Market", whilst simultaneously convinced that it was the Stupidest thing ever said by a Politician in my lifetime.

A BBC reporter ends his piece about the China spy trial collapse with the words "this story won't go away"
In contrast, the BBC newshounds have lost their sense of smell about Nathan Gill accepting Russian bribes.

I saw an interview with an ex-CIA operative, who called it Israel's 'Dresdenisation' of Gaza, - and he was deeply concerned about what the World would think of Israel, and the Jewish people in general, when they saw what Israel has done.

they and their supporters have got a Shit-ton of dirty Money coming their way, to make SURE this works !

And all Blair has to be is 'corrupt enough' to turn a blind eye to that, to allow it to work ...

And I think that that sort of 'Corruption' is fine, - if it works ...

nickequipechasee #TuckFrump @nickequipechasee.bsky.social · 11h

That's why he is less of a Shit ?

Johnson just wants other people's money so he can spaff it up a Wall, whereas Blair uses his money to help people get deals done, so that people stop killing each other.

Look at Gaza, do you think that Trump & Bibi are making Peace for 'Free' ?

I don't, I think

nickequipechasee #TuckFrump @nickequipechasee.bsky.social · 11h

Maybe so, but he's still not as big a shit as Johnson.

Surely the Twitter Algorithm is now specifically designed to stop people who aren't Nazis from doing that ?

I doubt Blair has much to do with Putin, because he knows what a nasty piece of work Putin is, whereas Johnson just likes his money, and so is as corrupt as possible.

Pope Leo quotes Hannah Arendt:

“The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the convinced Communist, but people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction and the distinction between true and false no longer exist."

Pope Leo XIV has encouraged international news agencies to stand firm as a bulwark against the "ancient art of lying" and manipulation.

Ditto the Libdems, my natural Party, - they’re just like a bunch of ‘confused Brexiters’ now, - they feel like they apparently don’t like Brexit, but they don’t want to necessarily rejoin any time soon, because that would be too embarrassing, difficult and complicated… (?)

Precisely, they seem to have a completely warped idea of the people they are trying to appeal to, as well as the amount of Bigotry that their normal supporters will put up with?

It’s the sort of completely cynical mentality that wins you a x00 seat majority on only 1/3rd of the vote ..

nickequipechasee #TuckFrump @nickequipechasee.bsky.social · 16h

Either that, or they’re just completely mercenary and will simply say anything to anyone, in order to win their Vote ?

Immigration is a case in point, they don’t need all their multi-layered nastinesses to convince anyone that they’re anti-immigrant, they just feel the need to be
