Daily Mail is now trying to portray Germany as Sick Man of Europe. PREPOSTEROUS! trade surpluses galore they can afford an economy in the doldrums for a period , No!!! Britain is the Sick Of Man of Europe.
That's coming from the paper that was full of praise for the kamikaze budget. :lol:

Nothing wrong with Britain. Don’t like it then fuck off abroad leaving your home and money.

The UK is a small island nation and we don’t want muppets here, whatever their political allegiance.

There will be an uprising and I predict some MPs will meet a bad end come the next general election.

I am not endorsing or supporting violence or know anything that may or may not happen in the future,

But you read it here first.

Nothing wrong with Britain? Your head is firmly in the sand you utter moron. This country is fucked, totally corrupt, far too many repressed twats like you who have been voting in people who are happy to rip them off whilst you smile and let them do it.

I like that you think you are very subtly alluding to some oncoming violence. From whom exactly? A bunch of boomers who can barely lift their daily mail off their bellies to get out of their recliners? If it's coming from anyone it's coming from the youth, and trust me - we aint on your side.

Your time is passed. No one is voting Tory any more because of how obviously they have fucked over the country.

You'll do absolutely nothing. So stop trying to give it the big un on an internet forum and get back to your sad life.

I totally agree with you about the state of the country. The services we used to take for granted seem beyond repair and certainly there seems no political will to address the problems. I was born 3 years late to be a boomer (according to what goggle says born 1946-1964!), however you cannot blame all of my generation. I do not read the Daily Mail and certainly would never vote for these incompetent clowns. I despise their antics as much as the next decent man. The people of mid Beds without a serving MP, is a total disgrace. Let us hope that the next incumbent of number 10 brings the country together, as these divisions amongst us serve in nobody's interest, whether you be 18 or 80. Be interested to see a youth uprising (and you certainly have reason to), as I have more fire in my belly at 56 than most of the young ones that I know.

When you listen to Mick Lynch, he sounds like a Communist

This reminds me of the 70's.....Unions taking people out on strike, just because they have the power to do so
It's the likes of Mick Lynch that Thatcher ate for breakfast when she became PM

Do you honestly think that’s why unions are being taken out on strike? Look around you and see how much harder life has got for the average person.

Nurses, firefighters, junior and senior drs, barristers...all out on strike just because the unions fancy it? The argument doesn’t stand up

And who cares about Thatcher? Evil old bitch, very happy she’s dead. Mick Lynch will eat the Tory front bench as a snack, forget breakfast

When the guy who apparently sounds like a Communist is making more sense than anyone else around, then the place has issues

Not at all. We all have our opinions and I've expressed many strong ones, both here and on Twitter

However, I've never wished death upon someone, or celebrated their demise.
I think Tony Blair is the most evil politician I've ever known in the UK, especially now he's balls deep inside the WEF, but I wouldn't celebrate his death

Thatcherism, Communism or Union Barons? Broken Britain will not be restored by any of them.

Count Me Out!

Nadine Dorries resigns. Can't really criticize her. I once did nothing for a month before handing in my immediate resignation. :lol:

! agree. I used to listen to this Elvis Costello song and was with him all the way.
Now I think that the sentiment is something that I can''t feel is justified.
She was just a brilliant poltician, it's just I hate virtually everything she did.
