[Politics] Tory meltdown finally arrived [was: incoming]...

[Thunder Bolt]

Sorry to be pedantic, but the cases quoted were when he was a human rights defence barrister, not the DPP. Even murderers are entitled to defence in a court of law.

Just to add the rules, that barristers have to adhere to, from a barrister.

Not necessarily - Labour not strong in Wellingborough - a lot of Tory voters will switch to Reform

…which is what makes this very interesting. If Reform take enough votes to cost the Tories their seat, it’s suggestive of them taking a true pummelling come the General Election.

Ireland is to initiate a legal challenge against the UK government’s legislation to deal with the legacy of the Northern Ireland Troubles.

Ireland’s deputy premier, Micheál Martin, said the interstate case would argue that the provisions of the Northern Ireland Troubles (Legacy and Reconciliation) Act 2023 were incompatible with the UK’s obligations under the European convention on human rights.

 

[Hugo Rune]

As predicted in here, Telegraph now going for Starmer on his record as DPP

Corbyn was IRA support and antisemitism.

The Mail, Sun & Express will all now follow. Whilst it’s good for Starmer that this is ‘the best they can do’ how many morons will be gaslit by it?

Starmer poses a real financial and perhaps existential threat for ****s like the one below, no surprise that they are going all in.

We shouldn't just be taxing non-doms we should be excluding them from UK media ownership

I think he’s got more front for leaving the house with that hair than any of his opinions versus his tax status.

 

[keaton]

No way. Starmer has a plan for everything in the manifesto, costed to the penny and there SHALL be honey still for tea.

Do you have that saved on your clipboard somewhere?

I wouldn't like to guess, but I'm sure there'll be one along in a minute who could, in between an 'amusing one-liner' and an Ironic thumbs up

 

[The Clamp]

The country can rest knowing that the absolute plank O'Brien is on the case!

I don’t like O’Brien, I find him far too sarcastic and smug. However, yes I’m glad he’s on the case.

In a media landscape where Gammony Thicket’s, bent politicians, and corrupt business men are simply let off the hook when they spout lies as truth to try to justify their ignorance / criminality, I’m glad someone is consistently calling them out. Long may he continue to do so.

O'Brien is the leftie equivalent of Morgan, they simply wheel on fodder for entertainment's sake.

Not necessarily - Labour not strong in Wellingborough - a lot of Tory voters will switch to Reform

Tory voters switching to Reform UK because they don't think the current Tory Government is sufficiently nasty, racist or Right-wing. Oh, and that Sunak fella is a bit of a Leftie, innit.

I've encountered a few of these Reform supporters on social media in the last few days - they are as deranged as they are thick, but worryingly, there are a lot of them, and they are dragging the Tory Party ever further to the Right.

I think there might also be another reason why they don’t like Rishi Sunak…

It's always Right-wingers shouting loudest about 'patriotism' who crap hardest and heaviest on ordinary British people.

The worrying thing is, some Tory MP's are trying to get leaving the ECHR into the next manifesto

[Peteinblack]

Governments and regimes which are contemptuous of the rights of 'foreigners' are also inclined to be contemptuous of the rights of their own citizens - unless they're mega-rich, or donate to the ruling party.

Those voters who want to see us leave the ECHR really ought to be careful what they wish for, because at some stage, they'll be targeted.

Yep saw a pic with Braverman dressed as Brittania the other day.
Absolutely bizarre.
Apparently - she will be back

This is a random meme from the internet.

A quick look at DMGT's annual reports show that they have a registration in the UK and do indeed pay tax.

My bad.

The location may be wrong but perhaps the implication of the intention (tax avoidance) is accurate.

DMGT is owned by Rothermere Continuation Limited who are registered in Jersey where the corporation tax (for those businesses that are exempt) is a whopping 0%. How much tax are they paying?
