    So would I. Even if they are a bunch of racist muppets who will screw everything else up. Would even welcome Liz Truss back if gets that one job done.

    Oh yes, that was your earlier argument, that he was guilty before trial.
    You are literally using your own argument against yourself.


    And let's not forget that the whole basis of your argument is that you are equating someone who
    misrepresent themselves on their CV
    to someone who commited acts of sexual abuse.

    Most of that $100million will go into Nige The Grifter's back pocket along with a few of his mates.

    No different the top table of the The Third Reich.

    Probably not Chris Pincher - it wasn't a girlfriend that he groped.
    Imran Ahmad Khan - no, boys for him.
    Rob Roberts - well, he said he was sorry, so that makes it OK.
    Neil Parish - no that was for beating off, not beating up.
    Mike Hill - could be him
    Andrew Griffiths - wasn't a girlfriend, it was his wife.
    Oh, maybe it was Charlie Elphicke

    It would have been nice if he hadn't committed any of the offences in the first place but he won a safe Labour seat so the electorate seemed to like him.

    Except in 2020 in Ethiopia, and between Armenia and Azerbaijan. And the ongoing Syrian, Yemeni, Libyan and Afghanistan civil wars.

    Apart from them. No wars.

    The warmongering neocons like Biden, Harris and Liz Cheney, Boris, Rishi, Starmer, Macron.. (the list is endless) have been defeated for now...
    Neocons.

    You really have lost the plot. If you ever had it.
