    The recruitment in the NHS has been frozen throughout. Has been for months, not frontline staff doctors nurses ect but lower bands.

    Given the bloke is 40 and has lived through the end of Thatcher, Cameron, Boris, Truss and Sunak amongst others, you've got to wonder why he was ever in the Labour Party.

    He would have been 5 when thatchers reign ended so doubt he was massively into politics at that age. But to claim starmer is the worst he's ever seen is some statement I agree, although I'd say he's up there. He also talks about his broken promises, betrayal of waspi, pensioners, disability benefit cuts, failing to support a inquiry into grooming gangs. Labels him out of touch.

    Good on Mr Graham!

    After all, it's not as though money is short, the tax burden is at an all time high, borrowing as a proportion of GDP is huge, public services are struggling, spending on pensions and benefits is growing exponentially, and masses more money is being required to fight off Putin. If any of those things were true, then you could understand the government being tight with the purse strings. What are they playing at?

    You lack the cognitive ability to understand cause and effect and if any issue is complex you jump on the simplest answer as it's what you understand.

    The reasoning behind a number of the points you make have been explained to you many times on here, but it's a waste of people's time as you don't have the ability to take on-board counter arguments or understand more nuanced logic.

    Im convinced he's a troll, just pops his head up to either throw a bit of racism about, a bit of transphobia or something of the same ilk. When he's challenged on these points like in this thread he disappears again.

    Loves to claim there's a clique in ths BBS yet fails to acknowledge his part in his own right wing moronic clique himself.

    Just stick him on ignore and move on.

    I haven't jumped on anything or gave my opinion. I commented and said farage was concentrating on the highest number of immigrants coming over on boats Saturday 1200
    then I informed someone who was on about nhs. That there's a recruitment freeze in the NHS.
    And I posted anout the cllr who has resigned losing faith in kier.

    No opinions of mine.

    I would say there's more anti-Keir than pro on here.

    Just been reading the carry on in Holland, with Farage's good mate Wilders. I wonder why every one of these right-wing populists looks like a complete spiv? Not a coincidence, is it?

    On the contrary. She knows exactly what she’s doing. Picked up a gold plated pension for life, for being the worst PM in British history, and has now jumped on the far-right gravy train. She’ll be absolutely raking it in.

    RN fast RIBS puncture boats, machine gun survivors. Would go down a storm in Spoons. One snag: biggest RN mutiny since the Bounty.

    When photographed, he always has thugs around him. That’s a clue. How many concentration camps and workhouses will we need?

    She hasn't got a pension for being PM - just the standard MP one - but she does have a nice six-figure expense account to pay for her to go to fasc conferences around the world.

    Although at her current rate of knots, she's about six months from forming a far-right OnlyFans account...

    That always reminds me of one of Neil Kinnock's pre election speeches, in '83. :rolleyes:
