You said Blair was a great bloke too though. We are not the same

I dont think you get it , labour IS the hard left, red flag waving, quasi communist entity its always been , just that sometimes it wears tory clothes so it can get a stint in power, before eventually getting put back in its box again, after its messed up the economy, and society. No doubt the first order of the day will be to give the vote to 16 year old woke conditioned kids , and any asylum seeker with right to remain, thus ensuring they can stay in power as long as possible ? They are already talking to the EU , trying to set up a working group.... The net result will not be the 'new' tories you think itll be, that come back to try and rectify the mess, it will be the hard right we are all taught to fear. The same play will happen across Europe, as those disenfranchised seek recourse. They say you dont get the government you vote for, you get the government you deserve, so get ready to reap the whirlwind

Youll be saying that about about the conservatives in a few years, when labour and the hard left have ruined your retirement

This is true

What , she's claiming universal credit too ? 🤣

Forgive me for assuming, but I'm getting this nagging feeling you don't like Trump very much 😄

They were polytheistic , they had a tonne of them.

How could they do any different ? The very fact it could happen in a 'free' society is very damaging , and embarrassing. They have helped the cause they hate so much, and exposed themselves to what they really are about.

So the big bag commercial shoots end up where ? Most of these large shoots charge YOU the consumer to pay around £50 a bird to actually shoot them, so the money isnt in the meat obviously, at £2 a bird, if youre lucky. Can you not see the contradiction here ? Another contradiction, BASC views large commercial shoots as perfectly acceptable , the many £1000s per day that these shoots command is the driver, the meat produced is an unimportant side line , but the excuse, the 'ethics' of shooting large numbers of bred targets are what is being used to justify it. Indeed , it is BASC et al that are perfectly happy to see others sport curtailed, to not inconvenience its own interests.

One of the main reasons the mayor used to stop the meeting , was that 'far right' attendees were homophobic and transphobic, and there were reports of hate speech going on inside, despite banning the use of the previous 2 venues before any speech had been uttered ! Yet last year he hosted a hard line Islamic mayor, whose city regularly persecutes , and executes those who practice the above traits... Dont you find that even a teeny weeny bit hypocritical ? I dont think he was there TBH.

Isnt that what free speech is all about , choice ? Beat me to it

"The Mayor of the City of Brussels, who pressured the venue hosting the National Conservatism conference not to do so, hosted the mayor of the Iranian capital in June 2023, it has emerged. Mayor Philippe Close of the Socialist Party reportedly pushed the Concert Noble to pull out from hosting the event a matter of days before it was due to start on April 16. However, on June 12 2023 Close posted an image on X of a collection of mayors from around the world, including the mayor of Tehran, at the Brussels Urban Summit hosted at the Town Hall. Tehran mayor Alireza Zakani was placed under sanctions by the UK in 2023 on the grounds that he had been "involved in the commission of serious human rights violations or abuses in Iran". He was also reportedly an Iranian paramilitary prior to becoming the capital city's mayor. According to Faces of Crime, Zakani was the chair of the Supreme Assembly of the paramilitary group Basij between 2016 and 2019. Last year, weeks before attending the conference in Belgium, Zakani said that women who defied rules around wearing the hijab would be prevented from using the Tehran metro. According to UAE outlet The National, Zakani said: "We will proceed according to the country’s laws in this regard. Our first step is issuing notices, then we issue warnings to the unveiled women, and in the third stage we prevent them from entering the metro stations." News about Zakani's invitation to the Brussels Town Hall comes after NatCon, attended by Nigel Farage, Suella Braverman, and British academic Matt Goodwin, was temporarily shut down after a local official called in the police. Emir Kir, the mayor of Saint-Josse-ten-Noode, a municipality of Brussels where the event was being held, told Politico earlier today that he would "immediately take measures to ban" the event. This was the third attempt to prevent NatCon from proceeding, after Mayor Close pressured Concert Noble to cancel the event, before the mayor of Etterbeek pushed the second choice venue - the Sofitel hotel - to cancel it too. Despite authorities descending on the third choice of venue, police then appeared to back off. Sky News' Darren McCaffrey who was the scene wrote on X: "Police now suggesting they won’t be dragging people out of NatConTalk conference in Brussels but rather their tactic is that they are not letting anyone else in and people can leave and not re-enter the venue. Meanwhile, Suella Braverman is continuing to deliver her speech."

And that well known 'far right' nazi skinhead err, Suella Braverman https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/national-conservatism-conference-brussels-shut-down-police-b2529501.html I mean , even the left wing press is a bit ashamed of this kind of err, fascist behaviour from the mayor and police. Shut down free speech ? Whatever next....

Bang on 👍🏻

Think of the wee chicks man !
