Renton 17828 Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 I'm no Rayvin, but even I'm getting pissed off at the double standards on display by the west here. Just as well Iran appear to be toothless. On the other hand, apparently they have enough fissile plutonium for 20 bombs which they could make in a couple of years if they wanted to.

It’s all linked though isn’t it - Iran back Hamas and Hezbollah. Hamas wouldn’t have been so bold to invade Israel the way they did without Iranian support. Israel and Iran are both to blame for any escalation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 26471 Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 I’m not painting Iran as the good guys here but Israel’s strike in Iran was a clear escalation that wasn’t really necessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’re just the puppets. It was Iran pulling the strings. It can all be traced back to Iran/Saudi tensions. Iran wants Israel to become a pariah and weren’t going to stand for an Israeli alliance with the Saudis, so they’ve already achieved their goals to an extent.

Gemmill 34625 Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 Been a rash of these posts in the last week. Looks like the Tories that have infiltrated the BBC are getting rid of its flagship news programme which has a tendency to tell the truth about this government. And in the run up to an election too. I'm sure it's just a coincidence. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 26471 Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 Does anyone here, apart from Renton, still watch Newsnight? I haven’t seen it in years, it’s on too late for my liking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 34625 Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 She didn't enjoy that. But to introduce the story as "it keeps getting pushed and some newspapers are hungry for the story" as if she's just go no choice but to cover it herself. She's dismal. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 34625 Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 "Lots of economists" think Truss had the right plan for the economy and also people on the street when she's out canvassing tell her she did the right thing. She's an absolute gift to Labour this one. Also "It's a smear....... It's a smear......" with this vacant look on her face. Is she on meds or booze here? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She's in a safe seat and is unfathomably popular with the party members so don't rule her out as returning as leader. I would literally piss myself laughing if this happens. Edit: I honestly don't get how she blames "the left" for her budget disaster when it was the markets that reacted to it and caused the bonds to collapse. She literally cut out "lefty" organisations such as the OBR and OFR when she did this. It's cost me a fucking fortune. # Edited April 15 by Renton 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I mentioned before this that I could see her back as leader given she’s going to be one of the few recognisable Tory faces who is still an MP of the polls are even close to being correct. The members are mostly middle aged / old men who fancy her. Which was enough last time. As Sonatine points out she’s loopy, but so are the members 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renton 17828 Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 Aye. The tory member blokes fancy her (decent rack tbf) and the ladies think she looks like Thatcher. Everything else, from being the most hilariously bad political orator of all time, to wrecking the economy in 4 weeks, to being a fucking horrible human being, to being batshit crazy, is just secondary. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
