How very interesting. It's nice to know some things never change.

An ex-Kremlin minister attended the cash-strapped Tories’ summer fundraising bash – just days after Rishi Sunak blasted Vladimir Putin.
Vladimir Chernukhin was pictured arriving at Rishi Sunak’s party’s event at the exclusive 42-acre Hurlingham Club in London on Thursday evening. Mr Chernukhin was Russian leader Putin's deputy finance minister in the early 2000s. His wife Lubov is a major Conservative party donor who has been snapped with Theresa May and Liz Truss.

This confirms the lunacy of the thing called Truss.

Liz Truss wanted to abolish the Foreign Office during her time in government, former minister Rory Stewart has claimed.

“She said to me: ‘I think foreign affairs are a waste of time. I think foreign office should be abolished. I can’t understand why you’re interested in foreign affairs’. And then she becomes Foreign Secretary!

Finally Labour has come up with a decent policy on the NHS. They will reform the NHS and reduce using Agency staff and employ more medical staff at a fraction of a cost. This will free up cash to spend elsewhere without actually having to borrow.

We are facing 4 billion pound hole in social care. Big wow, considering SwineCunts spend 35billion on an app that did not work. They have spend 1600 billion they did not have from 2010 to 2024 and it did not break the system but somehow the 4 billion will according to the SwineCunts. In fact this spending will remove patients from Hospitals to make space for more patients which will reduce the waiting lists dramatically. If health care can be taken care out of the National Insurance payments, why cant the social care be too. I have a feeling Starmer will have to behave or he will be removed just like BoZo was.

So it seems we have a little bit of hope in the horizon after all. Time to vote tactically to remove the SwineCunts first. Unless they are removed nothing will change. Of course Starmer has also promised to recognise Palestine but the real result will be if we stop supplying arms to Israel and put up sanctions against the Cunts. This may never happen but people will not let up till he does. Indeed if he ever become PM. There is a small chance that he will lose his seat being against such a prominent independent candidate like Andrew Feinstein. Time will tell.

I noticed that Starmer or any of the other Labour shadow cabinet members have not claimed they would not hold a second referendum. But having had a decision on 2016 to Brexit surely it is not unreasonable to take stock of the achievements of Brexit which are none and ask the public what they want. I guess that is undemocratic to the SwineCunts here and everywhere.

In the last 14 years the national debt went up by 1600 billion divide that by 14 years that 114 billion year on year and this was during the time where the country has paid highest tax for 60 years and public spending was cut at times 20% across the board. But this was never described as national debt ballooning.

The Greens would immediately bring rail, water and the "big five" energy companies back into public ownership


Rail will not change anything but Water and the Energy companies and you can add to that BT too will probably pay for the spending by themselves never mind the tax the wealthy will pay. It is time they paid back some of what they have taken out in the last 14 years. And if they want to piss off out of the country, they will still pay tax on what they earn from here. Even if they did leave and paid nothing is no great loss as they pay fuck all now as it is.

This sport thing is getting out of control. The players are getting al the blame and yet it is the manager who makes decisions. If he is going to use a player unless he gest the player to emulate what they do at their clubs what is the point of bringing them in.

Take Saka. He is very good with the ball passed in front of him so he can run at defenders and cross the ball to a striker or better still have a go at scoring himself if he gets the ball in the scorable position. I noticed he gets the ball at his feet all the time. By the time he gets it and turns there is no time to do anything as he is surrounded so he has to pass it back. Even when he manages to pass and the ball to the striker where the hell is the striker.

Another one is long passes that give the ball away. Who makes that decision? That is school football. The game today is played in short passes and triangulated so the ball is not lost. It is not rocket science. But when you have an England manager who was an average player and has never managed a top team has not taken part in Champions league, this is what you get. Hopes dashed for another 4 years.

My understanding of sport comes from the fact that I was the captain of my school football team in my final year at school as well as I was in the school team in year 10, I was captain of my college volleyball team and captain of my university volleyball team too.

Every other country process their asylum seekers and some even allow them to work while they are being processed so they are less of a burden on the state.

Not here though. The SwineCunts process 1% of the asylum seekers when compared to the rest of Europe. When it is so easy to process them. it is a legal obligation to give asylum to people who qualify for it. For those who do not that means their country of origin is safe and they can be put on a plane and sent back.

SwineCunt on the radio today claimed the Rwanda scheme is a deterrent. A deterrent to what? Deterrence is used to stop people commuting a crime, the asylum seekers are not criminals, they have the right to seek asylum under the international law. He also claimed his mother came to this country legally. Unfortunately he was not asked what legal ways are there for asylum seekers to arrive in this country. FarrariCunt being his usual pompous ass ways.

If only the west stopped supporting despotic dictators around the world and stopped causing chaos there would be no political asylum needed.

Interesting admission form the SwineCunt this morning as to why he did not think it was a good idea to join the EU scheme of sharing asylum seekers. He said the Europeans receive far more asylum seekers than UK does so they would end up as net receivers. And with the same breath they are trying to force France to accept more by blocking them coming here.

Judging by the ageing population and low birth rate, sooner or later we will get to the position where the pensions will present huge difficulties. it is time to stop paying pensions to people who already have more than adequate private pension and increase the state pension to at least 50% of the median wage in the country. If a person gets 950 pounds per month and pays over 1000 for rent, how the hell is this person going to live?

What a world we live in.

In the world where black is white and white is black. This Jay Slater incident is an interesting incident.

Here is a young man trying to enjoy himself. He goes to a remote place in a car but decided he will walk back in the hit the 10 or so miles till you read his background and not all is clear. What kind of a person was this boy.

The eight teenagers, some as young as just 14 at the time, attacked Tom Hilton, who was 17, after chasing him down "like a pack of gorillas" and setting upon him with machetes, an axe and a golf club.
He suffered a serious head injury as well as wounds to his shoulders and legs during the attack in Rishton, near Accrington in Lancashire, in August 2021.


And yet the judge thought there crimes were not severe enough to be incarcerated but instead gave them community service. And yet the law says if you carry a knife even if you do not commit a crime, you can go to jail. They even view coins rolled up into a cylinder is an offensive weapon.

.... and who is that National Debt owed to? ..... or at least a very large part of it?

In the meantime I will try and find a good, easy to understand explanation! You ain't gong to believe it! :o

I have no doubt the 10 or so large conglomerates in the world are on the list but here is another aspect of what is going on financially.

Companies linked to Conservative donors have collectively received £8.4bn in public money since 2016, analysis shows, more than 150 times what the party has received in support.

Government spending and political donation records reveal that key contributors have given £53.7m to the Tory party since January 2015, while controlling firms that have received billions in government and NHS contracts over eight years.


Frank Hester, whose company The Phoenix Partnership has received £427.7m from the NHS and Department for Health since 2016 and who has donated £15.3m to the Conservatives since 2023. The businessman, mired in a row about comments condemned as racist and misogynistic, gave the Conservative party £5m in January.
