Apparently most of the attendees at the conference are leaving tonight due to a rail strike so will miss Sunak’s speech where he’s expected to announce the cancellation of a high speed rail service to the venue.

That’s some imagination you’ve got.

Talk about making leaps and where to start. Firstly Bethlehem is in the West Bank not the Gaza Strip.

Parliament abolished slavery. Parliament agreed compensation to people due to the Windrush scandal explain why it was a scandal. Not sure what you mean by in depth. It’s seems pretty basic to me. Like I said, it sounds like your issue.

What song did they dance too?

They recon there’s at least 26 councils that are in danger of going bust in the next 2 years. Including Tory led councils. Tory led Kent is the next favourite to go bump apparently.

So basically you’re saying it’s your problem not hers. Maybe the schools should offer a course for parents on black history ahead of teaching it to their children. Just the ones struggling like you that is.

Scott Benton about to be suspended according to reports so another by-election in the Red Wall in the offing.

Faux culture war.

Did I hear correctly that Kemi had a stab at Braverman over her failure of multiculturalism comment?

Cancer wasn’t it?

That and when the cost inevitably increases they can say we cancelled that and claim Labour are economically incompetent.

I’m not sure what that’s even supposed to mean. If I was left to be a kid at six I wouldn’t have gone to school. I’m also not sure why you think that your kids are too stupid to learn about history at six years of age.

You can’t blame anyone for thinking that the Tories are setting a trap for the next government. Then again Labour might be secretly delighted that the Tories are cancelling it so they won’t have to deal with it.

Rammed down their throats? Strange angle to describe education. So how do you talk about the abolition of slavery without talking about politics? It was a political decision after all. How do you talk about Windrush without talking about the politics? Politics that’s still going on by the way...

It’s difficult because we’re talking about huge sums of money but I’m old enough to remember all the same arguments about the M25. Can’t imagine navigating London now without it. We didn’t know at the time what great value for money it turned out to be, can’t help but feel that the decision to...

It’s the definition of impossibility. How can you talk about black history and not be political. Unless you want to write out certain parts of black history. Which just defeats the point.

Just to add that I do actually agree with the bite the bullet stance. Problem I have now if it gets cancelled they think that’s the answer to what was a badly managed project from day one that has just gotten worse and worse. The only real answer is manage it better from day one. The government...

Yeah but they’ll retain Boris’ old seat again so that’s really a win 😀

I was reading that the decision to “pause” the old oak to Euston leg is going to cost an extra £360M mainly because 2 tunnellers have to be parked. And the pause of 2 years will actually cause a delay of 3.5-4 years in total construction time which will push the price up again should a...
