I think 18 months is generous but then Ruth is a Tory, so.....
Ugh, it's going to be like this for the next 4-5 years, isn't it?
All the while the actual number of people who will vote will go down and down, just as the Oligarchs want.
Is this not what we've all been saying, and then Labour comes back to us with a smug smile and says "Growth"....like it's a magic word that ends debate in their favour.
Useless, one term government that wants to fail.
And we thought the Dems were fucking weak.....
You stand for nobody, and nobody stands for you....
"Behind Boris Johnson"
He's got to go, but who would replace him?
This is what happens when you tell the Public "Now is not the time" and swoon over rich donors.
This what happens when your Left Wing voting base leaves you because you left them.
Why go for Nazi-lite Labour when you have full fat Fascism with Protest Vote Nigel?
Have Labour got James Carville advising them?
Will you be getting those troops from the same 'people factory' you'll be getting those builders, yeah?
How are you going to get the Youth to sign up for the Army when we all know you'll be tossed on the scrapheap of life once you're out of the Service? The State exploits us, then ignores us once we are of no use.

A relic from the Past wants to tell us he loves Donald Trump, how odd....
"Quisling Plans To Stab Europe In The Back For America First"

One Term Government cares not for the little people, just a vague notion of 'growth'
Cue a photo op with the Chancellor in brand spanking new PPE and looking like she's on a school trip to the Urban Farm
@jsoriano funny how in the UK we never talk about Spain, guess our masters think it will give us ideas, ideas like "maybe Immigrants aren't to blame for everything?"
Would the whole world seem less doomed if I was less depressed? Maybe, but the whole world seems doomed right now, so the depression isn’t going to go away by itself so I can find out.

Eastern Daily PressUKpol pensions capitalism
There are sometimes where I'm absolutely outraged that I need to care about the performance of the stock market to avoid being destitute in old age. Defined contribution private pensions (the kind the law forces us to have) are a political scam #UKpol
