Oh alright this is the actual footage
Oh alright this is the actual footage
I am leaning towards that yes.This country is finished, isn't it?
It's a combination of money being poured in from actors like Qatar, social media fake bot engagements that drive hate, and liberals who think they are doing the right thing or afraid of backlash.I would really like before I die to at least have an explanation about this lunacy we are experiencing the last years.
If our society is doomed to collapse, at least let me know why.
Social media melted our brains?
High consumption of drugs?
Chemicals in our food?
A plan of the elite?
Nothing makes sense anymore.
National pride is a sin, patriotism is uncool.
How is that anything but horribly anti-semitic hate speech?

Covid fucked everyone mate. Nobody spoke to anyone and relied on the internet for everything.I would really like before I die to at least have an explanation about this lunacy we are experiencing the last years.

Reform are not equipped to deal with these issues. There is a reason why Domenic Cummings wanted to destroy the Civil Service. They exist as a power unto themselves, limiting the power of any leader who doesn't pursue Blairite liberalism. In fact Blair's sweeping reforms allowed this to happen.I am leaning towards that yes.
It's got a real potent mix of
Mass immigration, legal and illegal.
Rampant liberalism
Socialism via it's ballooning welfare state and increasing taxation
Globalism and still hasn't truly used the powers that Brexit has enabled
Netzero policy and environmental maniacs
Quango, aka charities, interest groups which work against regular people's interests etc
And then worst of all the self-flagellation in which the elites have created a culture where none of this countries former glory's, value system, freedoms, discoveries, inventions etc.. that have been a force of good for the world (and there are many of these) are taught to young people or celebrated. Instead the message is this country did some wrong things and now we must be diverse and tolerant.
National pride is a sin, patriotism is uncool.
Combine everything and many people, particularly the younger groups either hate this country or don't care much for it.
Our only hope is that Reform is leading in the polls and has a shot of power, but that won't be easy as you are going to see them try every dirty trick in the book to thwart them..
Even if they win power they have to completely unravel this all and there will still be pushback. So change only happens if they get a momentous majority.
The time of the greatest social mobility, growth of the British (and American) middle class wealth, was when taxes were significantly higher than they are now.Socialism via it's ballooning welfare state and increasing taxation
What powers is that?Globalism and still hasn't truly used the powers that Brexit has enabled
We live in the environment. Its pretty important.Netzero policy and environmental maniacs
Its amusing that liberal charities are looked at as having ruined Britain, when its actually all the billionaire-sponsored conservative think-tanks that have been around for decades trying to convince working class people that taxing people with several orders of magnitude more wealth than them is somehow a bad thing. Everyone always talks about the "Global elite wanting immigration" blah blah blah. When that's only half true. The global elite what ordinary working class and middle class people thinking that their enemy are immigrants, whilst they boom-bust the economy from on high and hoover up all the assets and wealth that the middle and working class accrued during the 50s-80s. All the while telling everyone that taxes for millionaires and billionaires is a bad thing.Quango, aka charities, interest groups which work against regular people's interests etc
I mean sure there are great things that Britain did, but what do you expect. For people to celebrate imperialism, slavery and exploitation that is the foundation of the power and influence of the former British Empire? Some shame is necessary for the world to become a better place for its children. If you ignore all of the bad things and focus only on the things you think were good, no lessons will ever be learned. And the stuff Britain should be proud of; Britain's success in WW2 and the Keynesian economic policy built following the war (and indeed the similar New Deal arrangement in the US) - stuff that really should be remembered, is basically forgotten. Because tax = bad.And then worst of all the self-flagellation in which the elites have created a culture where none of this countries former glory's, value system, freedoms, discoveries, inventions etc.. that have been a force of good for the world (and there are many of these) are taught to young people or celebrated.

Why should they care? The country has failed them. Ironically, you seem to agree! Although I suppose for entirely different reasons.National pride is a sin, patriotism is uncool.

What do you expect Reform would do? Apart from finally fulfill Farage's wet dream of destroying the NHS and replacing it with the famously popular American Insurance-led model? Nah, Reform will finalise the bankrupting of Britain and scarper with the brown envelopes full of lobbyist cash and run off into the sunset. All the while British society will eat itself over nebulous terms like "sovereignty" and "Taking control".Our only hope is that Reform is leading in the polls and has a shot of power, but that won't be easy as you are going to see them try every dirty trick in the book to thwart them..

Does this give Israel the right to genocide Palestinians? Being against the state of Israel committing a genocide should not be conflated with anti-Semitism.Never forget that the Palestinians were allied with Nazi Germany, during WW2.
This is the Palestinian leader, Mohammed Amin al-Husseini, The Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, making the alliance with Hitler.
Does this give Israel the right to genocide Palestinians? Being against the state of Israel committing a genocide should not be conflated with anti-Semitism.
I'm not about to reduce the loss of human life to mere statistics. And just because its as bad as other regional conflict does not mean its acceptable.That is a common lie. That there is a genocide.
Look at the stats for this war and you will find the death ratio for civilians death is very similar to other conflicts in the region.
This "war" has been going on for decades. And I don't think for a minute the war would have stopped at the return of hostages.And it could be lower, if Hamas was not hiding behind women and children. Putting weapon caches and missiles inside schools and hospitals.
This is a war, one that was initiated by the Palestinian side. One that could have ended much sooner if Hamas had surrendered and delivered the hostages.
So I guess it'd be ok for Israel to start a war with Germany too? You know the actual Nazi's who committed actual Genocide against the Jewish peoples.The reality is that there is only one side that has been trying hard to commit genocide, that has stated this as their intentions, publicly and officially.
And that side is the Palestinians. Even before the forming of Israel, the Palestinians were so hell bent on the genocide of the Jewish people, that they allied themselves with Hitler and Nazi Germany.
So what's the solution. Wipe these people out? Just kill everyone? I.e commit genocide?Look at Palestinian protests and it's often that we find Nazi flags. These are not just some random Neo-Nazi that agrees with the Palestinians. These are Palestinians that agree with the holocaust.
The first point in Hamas political manifesto is to kill all the Jews, not just in Israel, but in the entire world. And it's not just Hamas that writes this, groups like Fatah and Hezbollah make the same claim.
I'm not about to reduce the loss of human life to mere statistics. And just because its as bad as other regional conflict does not mean its acceptable.
Given that most of Palestine has been reduced to rubble, and that the casualties (civilian or military) are overwhelmingly on the side of Palestine, its looking pretty much like a genocide.
This "war" has been going on for decades. And I don't think for a minute the war would have stopped at the return of hostages.

As you can see, Women and girls are in good hands..
What a fucking joke these people truly are.
I don't want to vote for Reform unless they change their stance on the NHS, as bad as it is right now I wouldn't want to see it go and replaced with an American style screw you system, but apart of me would like to see them in power so they can prove if they'll actually go hard on stopping the boats and curbing immigration and sorting shit like these gangs out.Our only hope is that Reform is leading in the polls and has a shot of power, but that won't be easy as you are going to see them try every dirty trick in the book to thwart them..

You've been listening to too much MSN where they purposely take what he said out of context. farage has said repeatedly the NHS will be free under reform. If there was any real hint of reform trying to charge people or make it American. It would be political suicide.I don't want to vote for Reform unless they change their stance on the NHS, as bad as it is right now I wouldn't want to see it go and replaced with an American style screw you system, but apart of me would like to see them in power so they can prove if they'll actually go hard on stopping the boats and curbing immigration and sorting shit like these gangs out.
And so is taught. Nothing wrong with being proud of that.Every civilisation that ever rose up from the level of subsistence farming did so with slavery and colonialism. However, none of them have made the contributions to the world that the British did. We gave the following to the world:
Steam engine
Jet Engine
Electric motor
Antibiotics
Vaccines
Antiseptic surgery
The modern sewage system
Calculus
Industrial revolution
The first manned flight
Discovery of universal gravity
Computers
Telephones
Because its British history and that is reason enough. Just because the British weren't unique in their colonialism, doesn't mean we should just gloss over it. British people should know British history; good and bad. No ifs, ands or buts.What lessons are we learning by pretending that Britain was somehow uniquely bad and guilty when it came to slavery and colonialism? Where is the mea culpa from West Africans and Arabs when it comes to these crimes? Their civilisations enslaved millions without contributing half of what we did.
Oh I'm sure. But equally, there were extraordinarily high rates of tax. And those high rates of tax helped to pay for public services.You talk about Keynesianism. We only had the money to pay for all of that because of the Marshall Plan. The US only had the money for that because of their own slavery, colonialism, burning fossil fuels and capitalism and because Europe spent WW1 emptying it's bank accounts into the US economy to fund our war. And, Europe only had money to spend on that war in the first place because of (you guessed it) slavery, colonialism, burning fossil fuels and capitalism.
I mean a large part of it was the energy crisis caused by OPEC. When energy costs are high, inflation is rampant. Such is the environment that Mad Maggie came in. Her selling the house and the kitchen sink with it to private corporations helped nothing. Except to make ordinary people beholden to private, for-profit corporations, incentivised to cut costs and raise prices to pay shareholders, for their fundamental utilities and public infrastructure. Its been a demonstrable failure.As for Thatcher... Britain was a disaster in the 1970s despite decades of the postwar consensus economic policies. Most nationalised industries were a bloated mess and our industries were not competitive. Are things better now? Hardly, but it's not as if Thatcher spoiled paradise.
I agree that the left has alienated the working class.I'd love to see our country reduce the gap between rich and poor and deliver good public services for people. Unfortunately, the left has spent years alienating the working class with culture war nonsense and filling the country up with immigrants thus damaging social cohesion. The Nordic countries are always held up by the left as exemplars of progressivism but they do this by being homogenous and cohesive societies with high trust and a great sense of civic responsibility. In Britain the left has adopted a highly individualistic attitude which only serves to atomise our society and make collectivism far less likely.
They just want a civil war.
the irony is, or maybe isn't, that Bob Dylan is a Zionist Jew.Punk band Bob Vylan chant "death to the IDF". Nothing.
Do you get the feeling the tides changing though?UK is beyond parody now.
Is there any country that's not?UK is beyond parody now.
As much as we say joking that the internet was a mistake and social media etc.Do you get the feeling the tides changing though?
Somethings brewing indeed
You can only contain nonsense for so long.
The uk look like a crack whore who hasn't slept in a week??I think Jess Phillips looks informative
She looks like the state in which UK is in
How many countries jail you for internet """"""""""""""""bullying""""""""""""""" tho??Is there any country that's not?
Also been dropped by his agency.
I'm actually lost for words. What is that garbage?
He's been known to the BBC since 2006. Previous songs and lyrics include "Burn Britannia" and "Bury the Queen." Whoever decided to let him appear at Glastonbury is a genuine moron.

We had a muslim politician going to schools in our inner cities to check how things are going with the muslim kids.As much as we say joking that the internet was a mistake and social media etc.
With smartphones, internet and social media people who would normally swallow the establishment lies are finally seeing the bullshit first hand.
Two tier policing is a common topic that nearly everyone is aware of now. And ordinary people who don't spend their days screeching on social media are sick of the way the country has gone. Reforms insane rise has finally woken people up that they don't have to just vote labour or Tory like sheep any more.
The civil service will need complelty gutting though. It's full of Muslims who openly try to change government policy and somehow are able to lobby the government in their working hours.
See the Muslims network for civil servants.
Nobody would have cared if he just kept it at Free Palestine, that's just expected. It was the other thing he said.The funny thing is, nobody had even heard of this guy before, seems like jumping on the Palestine bandwagon is a thing certain artists are doing for a news boost.
Reform are not going to save anyone and I guarantee you most will be worse under their rule. It's curious how the regions in the UK with the lowest educational attainment also have the highest support for Reform.I am leaning towards that yes.
It's got a real potent mix of
Mass immigration, legal and illegal.

Death to Jews is horribly anti-Semitic hate speech. Death to IDF? I cannot say I agree with you.How is that anything but horribly anti-semitic hate speech?
my sister still lives in bradford, where I grew up, and she said there are HMO's filled with non-english speaking dudes. Literally filled to overflowing, surprised the health agencies haven't been getting involved as there are 10-15 people living in 3 bedroom terraced houses.
