And the Tories don't use money to get elected? It it comes down to honesty I'd vote for Corbyn over Johnson any day. .

His social commentary through art is often brilliant, I think of him as being little short of genius and justly famous. .

There are millions, those who aren't brainwashed by smear campaigns Corbyn was elected Labour leader in 2015. The party's membership increased sharply, both during the leadership campaign and following his election. In the 2017 general election Labour increased its share of the vote to 40%...

Starmer is very much a traditional Labour socialist, being brought up as one and in office supporting all of Corbyn's policies. As the DPP he wasn't at all flexible, more dictatorial in the David Blunkett mould. .

More likely Bechstein's Czech made brand, W Hoffman. Having the Czechs help them tie up the locals might appeal to the German sense of humour. .

I use their teabags. .

Those words were once adequate but we've so often used them when not fully justified that they've lost their impact. The word that is closest to your need is: Useless: Being of no use whatsoever at any time for any need. .

Maybe how we achieve a higher employment rate in the UK than any of the others.* Killing off those not in employment. *The employment rate has risen from 70% to 76%. .

What an attitude, don't criticise to try to correct what's wrong, just get rid of the critics to protect and preserve what's wrong. Probably why the UK is trailing in so many issues, not just Covid-19. .

Colston's life was the notable historical event. Erecting a statue is not a notable historic event, it is just workmen performing a function, no more significant than digging up a gas main or sweeping the street. Just as a mob removing the statue is not a notable significant historical event...

They should have changed the place name from Bath to Shower. ;) .

I repeat: Erecting a statue is not a historical event any more than sweeping the street was. .

Great for washing away the outdoor Covid-19 viruses. .

It was forecast for today, scroll down to the tile map on this link .

It is not erasing history since these statues were erected solely to celebrate these often evil lives. History is for recording events, not statues, and no-one has been erasing that history. .

Indeed, and many of them achieved amazing things for one person, Hitler for example, so why no statues commemorating him? Then there's Ghengis Khan, Alexander the Great, Tamerlane, Attila the Hun, Charlemagne, Pharoah Thutmose III of Egypt and many more before returning to more recent offenders. .
