Yeah I think I posted this a while back, this happened under my flat: https://www.cornwalllive.com/news/co...laying-1529756. It's now a holiday let basement apartment...

The Tories renationalised something under May (something to do with trains I think?)...

[d000hg]

By that 'logic' so might any house where someone has died, which is probably most houses. Get the stains out, wait a bit for it to fall out of the headlines, get on with it....

[d000hg]

What was wrong with it?
The proposal isn't to nationalise but to have A nationalised player alongside others, I thought?...

We all know how trustworthy these polls tend to be - and how volatile. All Kwiz have to do is cover the energy crisis and find a way to un-**** the rest of the kwasi-budget and it would flip back. Amazing they give everyone free money and lose popularity!...

[d000hg]

So what's wrong with the property? There was a grisly murder there once... so what?

[d000hg]

They're not going to vote to join the EU, it was LAbour voters who got us to Leave in the first place and they haven't changed their minds.
Labour might finally be pro-PR but they have to win a GE under FPTP to enact it....

[d000hg]

Boris has long been a party favourite, biding his time so I think it's likely he would have had a chance....

[d000hg]

So are Nigerian princes (presumably the real kind not the ones who have lost their fortune and need my help to get it back) not really black either, if they went to Eton?...

[d000hg]

They're not all rich, and being rich doesn't stop you caring about losing power or embarrassing yourself in the public eye.

Current situation reminds me of when someone steps up to be PM in The Apprentice initially looking confident and full of ideas, 5 minutes later they've designed a...

I didn't know they came here for school...

[d000hg]

So my VPN won't work?...

[d000hg]

They don't allow blacks?...

[d000hg]

He's not a proper black man because he's rich, well-educated and successful ...

[d000hg]

On paper it seems a reasonable idea to me, for government to have some control over essential things like utilities without being too involved in running/ruining it....

[d000hg]

Well no, a point/skill/value based system isn't racist or xenophobic but it was accused of being so. Even though quite a few multicultural countries use it.

But interesting to see something being pushed by Farage is now one of Keir's policies - though of course many of the rural Labour...

[d000hg]

How would being part of the EU have stopped Kwiz doing these things?...

[d000hg]

One thing I was interested to note is that Keir is advocating a "points based immigration system". Isn't that the sort of 'racist, xenophobic' idea Labour were vitriolically attacking around Brexit when my FaceBook feed was full of Labour-voting friends re-posting memes about how the NHS relied...

We've jumped all the way from very slightly left of centre to centre-right. Our 'extremist right wing' government is about as right wing as the Democratic government in the US. Repeating the same thing over and over doesn't make it more true. If you want an actual right-wing government, look to Ita...

We've gone from Liz having an opportunity to take a quick win on addressing energy crisis and ensure a Tory GE win in a couple of years, to an absolute peach of an open goal being presented to Keir & co right as they have their conference. They could be in power before Xmas at this rate and frankly...
