To be fair Raab was 100% more effective than Boris. I don't think he destroyed her, I would call it a score draw.I've just seen a vid on twitter claiming raab destroyed her. Haven't seen PMQs yet so I'm not sure of the context.
God she’s fecking awful!
Imagine sending 24 cops to take a megaphone off a protester. These fecking people in charge need sending to Siberia.Isn't it terrible how they just arrest people in Russia for peacefully protesting.....oh, wait.
The scary thing is what will they do when they finally push through their new human rights bill. I can see them shutting a lot more people down who disagree with them.Isn't it terrible how they just arrest people in Russia for peacefully protesting.....oh, wait.
And look at the twat Sunak laughing like a demented hyena.Tweet

The Tories know how to push a weak spot in the opposition.The thing is, as much as he's a twat, he does have a point. Labour should have been out supporting the strikers. But instead, they're buying into the whole Tory narrative that strikers are anti British extremists.
He doesn't though? It's a heads you lose, tails I win wording.The thing is, as much as he's a twat, he does have a point. Labour should have been out supporting the strikers. But instead, they're buying into the whole Tory narrative that strikers are anti British extremists.
Well I have never seen anything that appears to makes Labour look against the strikers. Far from it.The thing is, as much as he's a twat, he does have a point. Labour should have been out supporting the strikers. But instead, they're buying into the whole Tory narrative that strikers are anti British extremists.
Is she too short be to a Sacha Baron Cohen character?I really do admire her commitment to continually making herself look a complete twat in public.
The amount of sleaze in this Government is truly remarkable.Tweet

"Sorry, I was a bit pissed"The amount of sleaze in this Government is truly remarkable.
All stems from having a lying crook conman as PM.
I like Raynor but always thought, at what point do you stop being "working class" when earning £84k - year two? Year four? Etc.Raab did Rayner a favour here tbh. As in any normal reality a MP of the party founded by unions, spending her time getting pissed at posh events instead of supporting striking workers would at least make for some bad headlines.
Instead people are defending Rayner and her working class income of £84,000 a year.
It doesn't help but that's not where the font of Tory corruption is found. It entirely permeates the party and ultimately the way they conduct themselves comes from their donors. There are rarely consequences unless they go so far as to be utterly obscene. As a consequence most of them are swimming out all the way to that line in the cesspool.The amount of sleaze in this Government is truly remarkable.

If you keep your principles of having a working class background and trying to support those people that still are, it really doesn’t matter.I like Raynor but always thought, at what point do you stop being "working class" when earning £84k - year two? Year four? Etc.
This. I'm not sure she has mind but that's not the point. Assuming something about someone because of what they earn is daft. It might be a suspicion perhaps, but it's not even close to proof.If you keep your principles of having a working class background and trying to support those people that still are, it really doesn’t matter.
How is the opera a posh event?? Plus where is the evidence that she was "getting pissed"??Raab did Rayner a favour here tbh.

I agree, it's just the constant preface that's she's working class.If you keep your principles of having a working class background and trying to support those people that still are, it really doesn’t matter.
A lot of people in Britian think class is cultural orI like Raynor but always thought, at what point do you stop being "working class" when earning £84k - year two? Year four? Etc.
This is coming across as a sexist post I do have to say.
From what I know of @Sweet Square they'd be saying that whether it were a male or female MP. It's somewhat hypocritical for a Labour MP to be attending events commonly perceived as upper-class instead of supporting workers on a picket line.How is the opera a posh event?? Plus where is the evidence that she was "getting pissed"??
Was she drunk?? Again where is the evidence??
Why jump to such conclusions? This is coming across as a sexist post I do have to say.
I'd say you can have working class roots and have a lot of money now, but still understand what it's like to grow up without money. Rashford obviously has seen what it can be like and is actively trying to help based on that experience but you couldn't consider either him or his family working class now.A lot of people in Britian think class is cultural or
something you get from your parents.
Which leads to things like last week a baroness clamming to be working class or in Rayer case a MP on over £80,000 a year who can’t be arsed to join striking workers. It’s all very stupid and makes no sense.
im sorry but this is patronising nonsense. akin to saying Raynor should know her place.From what I know of @Sweet Square they'd be saying that whether it were a male or female MP. It's somewhat hypocritical for a Labour MP to be attending events commonly perceived as upper-class instead of supporting workers on a picket line.
i cant stand the man, but its without doubt he would wipe the floor with this current govt whether at the dispatch box or on panel shows.Re: Tony Blair interview on Newsnight last night!
He wants to "rebuild the center of British Politics"
He says "Labour has to convince the electorate that they can govern" (apparently so that some Tory voters will switch to Lib Dems)
Labour cannot support the SNP because they both want something different, ( assume he means Labour has to get its finger out in Scotland)
He does support Starmer
Despite the past, you have to admit most politicians today cannot hold a candle to this man, his method of speaking, his facial expressions, his sideward glances when making a really important point, the 'mind set' that he knows best!
