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 Italy.

Bliar was to the right of Thatcher, and we have gone further to the right since his shambles. We haven't had a "slightly left" government in a few decades.

I didn't use the word "extremist", implying I did is the kind of tactic I'd expect from Vetran and Neil Frottage fans, not you.

Can't you see the jackbooted fascists walking down the street you fool?

Even suggesting people born with penises and not medically accepted as safe to other sexes shouldn't go into the ladies is disgusting. Or saying the statistics say certain cultures are more commonly associated with certain crimes is racist.

A lot of people are. They (and Greece) get more favourable bond rates. Just knocking the thread back on topic.

“Stagnated” with 12 years of jumping further and further to the right, so the solution is to keep going further right, more isolationist, and blame foreigners or anyone who doesn’t support the reicht for the problems.

When Ziggy suggested a step change, he was referring to a specific waterfowl style step

[WTFH]

Incompetence? How so? We've stagnated for years, a step change was required. Perhaps this is it.

Or the incompetence of Truss and Kwateng possibly?

Aren't they to blame for most things? The B word seems to be blamed for everything.

Maybe the strength of the Dollar is a bit of a factor?

Bloody hell - really? That worn out crappy excuse?

Remainers are to blame for the run on the pound

R4 Today programme idiot trying to get some economist person (I wasn't paying much attention) to say they were wrong about their predictions because sterling recovered by a whole cent against the dollar. I turned the radio off because it was getting too much like a Philomena Cunk interview but far less entertaining.

Unfortunately the BBC has lost its independence since the Tories appoint their favoured director general

I watched some Jonathon Pie yesterday. It was suppose to be comedy but he sounded like every talk radio presenter since the "statement".
