    Daniel, we can all see through the thinly veiled remarks that you'd love Farage to be in charge and can we all just put it out there now, that would be an absolute disaster.

    If you haven't maintained a garden for 14 years and a new gardener has to come in and sort it out, do you think he can just get planting and everything will be grand next summer or does he have to pull out the weeds and repair the groundworks first?

    P.S your 'us against them' shtick is a bit weird considering you still continue to contribute on this forum regularly.

    How is that? So because I don’t vote Labour, I therefore want farage in charge? Another strange Labourism that gets thrown around.

    If I called a gardener to remove some knotweed but he kept planting more knotweed immediately after getting the gig I’d sack him aswell, yes.

    So by your logic, you cannot post on this, a football forum, because you don’t agree with the majority? Hmmm. Strange one that.

    I think you are right about Jenerick walking it, as Badenoch is the wrong colour for the Torys, and even the most ardent Brexiteering far-right Conservative will know she is a liability.

    This torpedoed any shred of credibility you might have otherwise had.

    Who do you want in charge, what policies do you want them to put in place and how long would you give them to improve things?

    The fact you put COVID vaccine conspiracy theories on social media as well as open support for Donald Trump and Farage (as well as a bit of transphobia) means it's not just a Labourism getting thrown about is it?

    If it looks like a horse and sounds like a horse, it's usually a horse.

    At no point have I said that. We've just gone through a pandemic and still in the cost of living crisis, nhs workers will all get a pay rise I have family who work in the nhs. They get a generous pension, great holidays and full sick pay (which is milked by many and costs the nhs alot) I and many others don't get those perks. I could do with a pay rise but I can't strike.

    It's great to dish out rises but where the money coming from? Scrapping pensioners bus passes?

    What part of the covid vaccine I post about is “conspiracy”? the vaccine caused deaths, it’s a fact.

    Also, I do support a lot of what both trump and farage say. I also disagree with a lot. However, you won’t mention where I’ve posted about that as it doesn’t suit your narrative, does it?

    Labour, the party who bankrupted Britain so badly the Tories had to take over…

    Wow, just wow. Before even debating how untrue that assertion is - what state would you suggest the economy of the country is in now - healthier than it was 15 years ago?

    As for the Middle East stuff - could you remind me what the Conservative stance was, and particularly that of Iain Duncan smith who led them, at the time? What would they have done differently do you think?

    I’ve also just looked up your claim about 52% of Labour voters regretting their vote. There is no such poll on the you gov site. The closest I can trace is here:

    https://yougov.co.uk/politics/articles/50578-why-do-many-britons-feel-let-down-by-labour

    It says 53% of Britons disapprove of the job Starmer has done so far - and is clear that their opinion polling has plummeted - but it is completely false to say 52% of Labour voters regret their vote. Unless you have alternate evidence?

    Not going into the Starmer debate.

    WOW two really far right politicians to keep the home fires burning for the Tories. A real election winner, as Reform are going nowhere.

    Nothing like pissing on your chips after a heavy night out.

    Your argument to the middle east debate he put across was "the tories would have done the same"

    None of the economy will be in a better state I said at the Time of covid when everyone was furloughed we will be paying this back for as long as I'm alive.

    I honestly don't think there's much between the 2 party's if Boris had stopped the winter fuel payments they would be uproar on here or when starmer refused to call for a ceasefire in gaza before the election it got defended on here, had that been the Tories they would have been hammered.

    It is hilarious that after years of cosying up to the right wing media & Starmer personally disgracing himself with the articles in the Scum after vowing never to speak to them his supporters now complain that the same media is out to get him

    I’ve not seen that much of the other two candidates but Cleverly’s twitter feed reads like that of an internet troll. If you just search his name & that of either Starmer or Corbyn it’s just constant lies & smears. He’s just not a serious bloke.

    He also made a tit of himself with the recent ‘freebies’ scandal where he lied about his wife attending & when he was caught calling Stockton a **** hole & tried to deny it.

    I can’t stand Starmer, I think he’s the worst Labour leader of my lifetime & is a pathological liar who I fear will do a lot of long term damage to the Labour Party.

    And given all that, and more which you’ve not fleshed out… he’s still a million times more sane than the two remaining candidates.

    Be afraid, be very afraid.

    The beauty of being the party of selfish greed is that the Tory DNA is inherently programmed to self destruct in a frenzy of blue on blue infighting.
    Keir, Reeves and Ange doing their best to screw up Labour and Ed Davey is busy bungee jumping somewhere down south.
    This is a low. And no sign of Count Binface.
