yawn...now like the dying days of the sh*t thread on here...

Waiting for someone to say enough is enough.

The sad thing is, if Johnson wasn’t so lazy and unfit to lead then we would’ve gone into lockdown earlier (on all 3 occasions) and wouldn’t have had to have been in lockdown for as long. The buck stops with him.

actually had a look, doesn't start till March 22nd...too late. 

 

There were 2 or 3 earlier threads that were called something like ‘Will Glastonbury be cancelled’ which started end of Jan/early February. Like prequels or prologues you could say.

What these threads show is just how uncertain everything was back then.  Everyone looks back now through lived experience and attacks the likes of Boris but when you consider around the time how the hot topic was, will I still be able to go to my leftie festival, goes to show just how uncertain things where.

Yeah, and if it had been Starmer in charge, then the exact same things they're criticising would be getting defended right now. Very predictable

I had some cracking predictions back then, twice I predicted with certainty that Glastonbury in 2020/21 wouldn’t ahead. I wasn’t wrong about anything else…

Gone off PR a bit recently. We'd just end up with Farage as PM.

And its just a different way of getting s Hung parliament where no one gets what they voted for.

Will there be any criticism of this? Stay tuned to find out!

[steviewevie]

So fixated with Boris admitting how useless he is that missed Braverman doing her thing and telling MPs that govt must block all domestic/international laws blocking flights to Rwanda otherwise they face electoral oblivion.

He didn't realise how serious it was a comment meant to cover all of the COVID crisis after seeing Italy and his own time in hospital where he admitted that he nearly died.

A cost of living crises and they are fighting over the Rwanda scheme. They need to go. 

[Skip997]

So we're up to about 35 - 1 "in favour" of Israeli.

How much revenge is enough?
