Privately educated politicians are not good in maths either. I was watching Rishi Sunak giving his speech at the Tory conference. He said our debts are 800% of GDP. Maybe he predicted the future of the country under this government.

Misanthrope?

Sunak is worth about £200 Mils. His wife is on a different scale. She is said to own shares in her father's company worth £430 Mils. You can see that Sunak is a relative pauper. If he still has to work for his money then he understand the financial concerns of those like you and I who are still...

it only takes a minute to reconfigure. For you, that's the 0-7 set in the 'power set' option. To go to the settings menu, hold both + and - buttons down for a couple of seconds. You get to the settings menu. Hold again both + and - buttons down for a couple of seconds. You get to the advanced...

1. larger tyres: from 27.5" x 2.0" to 27.5" x 2.15" 2. LCD: from KM529 to KD58C The reason to change the LCD is because the KD58C lets you customise the 'power-set' in the LCD to suit your riding. You can set the number of levels and how much power for each level in pedal assist mode. The...

in the last episode of BBC QT, one of the subjects was HGV driver shortage. At the end of that discussion, Fiona Bruce asked the audience: Does anyone of you have something positive to say about brexit? The audience fell silent. No? anyone? the majority of you voted for brexit! The audience...

I can see the attraction for BJ to call another election before Starmer builds up a head of steam but he would probably lose most of his majority. One third of UK workforce was furloughed, lots of them would resent BJ rightly or wrongly for loss of income in the last 18 months. Lots more will...

KS is already more popular than JC and Ed Miliband. There is a parallel between how much the public trusts each party on the economy and GE success. Just look at the plot below: You can see why I thought Labour Left are hopeless.

there is a lot of flecc's in what Kier Starmer said.

I don't think he will step down if he gains seats but loses overall. Labour needs to get back a lot of seats it lost in Scotland and that's a nigh impossible task for his first general election.

like who? if you are talking about Angela Rayner, she just said what many people think.

One of the points Kier made in his speech is he came to politics relatively late because he was pursuing a career and was not a professional politician. That sounds right and credible to me. Professional politicians can and will argue for any cause, shout any slogan and happily lie on TV. Kier...

the majority already have done in practice what flecc explained. Our media pick up rightly the various newsworthy protestations but they also add an American inspired anti-China campaign spin to the basic events. Our interest is to work with all countries and tolerate some differences.

yes, I think we have.

I hope there are many more like you! As you said, there is little difference between soft Labour and soft Tory. I still find soft Labour more electable.

I think we will have to put up with China expanding their defense spending. Their industrial capacity has already surpassed USA's. We should really stop spaffing money up the proverbial wall. What would our submarines do in the China Sea? Time for our Navy ruling the waves is well and truly...

amusing but I reckon, according to wikipedia, your argument suffers a type of fallacy called Modal fallacy – confusing necessity with sufficiency. I still have fond memory of lessons on Aristotle's logic in High School when I was 17.

our democracy is imperfect. That's the reason to believe future is better than now. If we remove all the faults from the system, that will be the end of us.

Blockchain as in Bitcoin blockchain has been hacked though.

The louder A. Rayner, A. McDonald, J. McDonnell and JC are at the conference, the more moderate Labour members need Kier. Anyone interested in a change of government can see that KS is the only realistic solution. I see in Reeves the voice of reason.
