That said, I wouldn't discourage Gates from heading there. I think he should go and check it out.

It's just "party politics", each side 'blaming' the other for their own failings. Let us not forget that it was Starmer's predecessor Tony Blair and his 'New Labour' government that started all this off. Open borders with the likes of Pakistan, then European countries like Poland and Romania etc through 'freedom of movement'. The Conservative governments from 2010 to 2024 just continued this. Even after Brexit, while the EU nationals stopped arriving, we continued to accept people from all over the world. I believe the 'net migration' figures have been a smoke-screen for many years. EU migration was never a massive problem, after all at least most EU nationals were coming here to work and earn a living. After Brexit though, we were supposed to "take back control of our borders" but strangely net migration is getting worse, so the question to be asked is "where are these people coming from"? The other interesting question to be asked is "who are the people that are leaving the UK?". 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theo102 Posted December 22, 2024 Share Posted December 22, 2024 If you were curious why Igor Kirillov was just assassinated, watch this video. In August 2023, Kirillov outlined how the US and Big Pharma “rule the world” by “manufacturing biological crises”. He also discussed how all of this evidence has been submitted to the UN many times, and gets vetoed every time by the US, because the US cannot refute the documentation. Essentially, Kirillov found the paper trail proving that the US government, along with NGOs and oligarchs, created C19, and used it to generate trillions in profit for pharmaceutical companies via vaccine production, as well as advancing government overreach via emergency powers. https://forbiddenknowledgetv.net/russian-general-assassinated-for-revealing-us-biolabs-in-ukraine/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

numnuts Posted January 3 Author Share Posted January 3 https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cewxrzq0489o 'Twenty councillors quit Labour in Starmer protest.' The councillors said they would establish a new independent party, planning to run the borough council as a minority administration in the short-term, but may need support from existing independents in order to keep control. They claimed 10 of them had been blocked from standing for Labour at upcoming local elections for Nottinghamshire County Council after questioning the winter fuel policy. 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
numnuts Posted January 9 Author Share Posted January 9 (edited) It feels like a never-ending nightmare. First and foremost, it has to be pointed out that no council, whether at county, district or parish level, would ever decide to dissolve itself just to save some taxpayer's cash. Even if in a poor financial shape. Over the years, a lot of stooges must have invaded a lot of our county councils. Other than that, no council, whether at county, district or parish level, should be able to dissolve itself in this manner, without a public vote. From what I can gather, though, it seems to be even worse than that. The government seems to be suggesting that county councils can just give the nod on dissolving district councils in their area. It cracks me up that Kaiser Keir is trying to sell all of this as 'devolution' and 'power to the people'. It's the exact opposite of that! And, if he thought it was such a vote winner, then why didn't he mention it in Labour's general election manifesto? Oh, that's right, they only just thought of it, after coming to power. Like, with taking away the winter fuel payment from millions of pensioners. No one should be accepting this in their area, unless it is first voted on by the public. I vote to keep my district council and, if it comes to it, my parish council. Hands off, Starmer! P.S. The county council elections in May would now be de facto referendums on this matter regardless. No small wonder, under the guise of 'exploring options', that they want to postpone them then. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cvgrg989j9jo 'Half of county councils could see election delay.' More than half of the county councils in England with elections scheduled for this year could seek to have the votes postponed, the BBC can reveal. At least 12 out of 21 county councils due to hold elections in May are poised to ask ministers to delay the ballots to explore options set out in a major redesign of local government announced in December. The government has set Friday as the deadline for areas to show interest in the first tranche of devolution plans. But the current plans have prompted a backlash from some local leaders. The District Councils Network claimed ministers had "rushed" the proposals to reorganise local government and were depriving residents of having a say. The organisation's chairman Cllr Sam Chapman-Allen said: "The cancellation of the local elections comes after the government's general election manifesto neglected to mention that it sought to take power away from communities by replacing district councils with mega councils. Democracy is being side-lined with the local electorate being deprived of any democratic opportunity to give their verdict on a major reorganisation that will have far-reaching repercussions for the destiny of thousands of English towns and villages."

numnuts Posted January 11 Author Share Posted January 11 (edited) So, unless she takes evasive action, it now seems that Rachel From Accounts is going to have to break her own rules. Supposedly, all because sterling dropped around 1% in value, which caused 'dem faceless markets' to get 'jittery' and then led to a rise in borrowing costs. OMG. More spending cuts, when it comes to the elderly and vulnerable then. It's all a cheap, pathetic PTB stunt, if you ask me. Grandma Numnuts always used to tell me to beware a woman with a disguised bowl cut and sides. So, what lies behind the disguise then? Yes, just as I suspected. More weak humans need to be taken to task... https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c7454gnqdw8o 'Market trouble threatens Labour's economic plans.' Chancellor Rachel Reeves has set out clear fiscal rules, such as getting debt falling as a share of national income by the end of this parliament, and she has made sticking to these rules a crucial test of the government's credibility. That's what makes the recent rise in government borrowing costs potentially so dangerous for Reeves, the Treasury and - arguably - Sir Keir Starmer's entire political project. If the government has to spend a lot more money paying interest on debt, then it is less likely to meet its rules. A Treasury spokesperson said last night that "meeting the fiscal rules is non-negotiable". That would suggest she would have to break her commitment and announce, or at least pave the way for, measures to bring the government in line with its rules. What could that mean? In principle, it could mean either tax rises or spending restraint. In practice, given the announcement of a significant increase in employers' National Insurance rates in October, the government's view is that it would have to mean spending restraint - Darren Jones, the Chief Secretary to the Treasury, practically said as much in the Commons today. To be clear, spending restraint would not necessarily mean spending cuts, just much lower spending increases than would otherwise happen. (LOL. That's a good one.)

cemeterycrow Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 Anger over Labour's shameless bid to 'rig' election by easing ID law and allowing millions of foreign nationals to vote Quote Labour's plot to ‘rig’ the next election by meddling with voting laws was last night described as ‘deeply concerning’. Sir Keir Starmer’s government is proposing to allow millions of foreign nationals to vote and abolish measures to prevent voter fraud. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14252551/Labours-shameless-bid-rig-election-easing-ID-law.html Quote Ministers are considering plans to overhaul the way elections are held by scrapping voter ID laws and give five million foreign nationals the right to vote in UK elections. It has led to accusations that the party is trying to lock in a Labour majority by removing obstacles designed to tackle voter fraud. The Institute for Public Policy Research (IPPR), a Left-wing think-tank closely aligned with Labour, have said in a recent report that there is a ‘clear need for a wider political conversation about the notion of citizenship and voting rights in the UK.’ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

numnuts Posted January 19 Author Share Posted January 19 I didn't know that the BBC News website now had an 'Indepth' section, where you supposedly have to sign in to read the bullshit. Anyhow, at the time of me making this post, one can just open the link in a private browsing window, which then doesn't make you sign in. Reading between the lines, it is very concerning reading about these secret 'mini-cabinet' meetings. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/clyeej4ex5wo 'Secret UK 'mini cabinet' tries to plan for unpredictable Trump.' There have been series of secret "mini-cabinet" meetings, with the Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer, the Chancellor Rachel Reeves, the Foreign Secretary David Lammy, and the Business Secretary Jonathan Reynolds "trying to plan for what might come", according to one source. One insider tells me there hasn't been too much preparation for multiple specific scenarios because "you'd drive yourself crazy" trying to guess Trump's next steps. But another source says various papers have been prepared to be presented to the wider Cabinet. (That should probably read 'to be accepted by the wider cabinet'. With no questions asked.) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
