    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Totally, but he was a serious economic mind and the last serious politician. And any cuts would have been handled far better than the indiscriminate austerity which likely ended up costing more than it saved. We’re still living with some decisions now around social care and policing and...

    Just to pick up, again he pulled us out of Iraq. And as lack of ID cards seem to be the main reason we attract so much illegal immigration I’d have thought you’d be all for them. No direction is a bit of a strange claim for a man who in three years for the first ever climate change act passed...

    How's this justice?

    Its a perverting the course of justice charge, but for that you have to show police time was spent on the case so wouldn’t apply to just a threat.

    Out of interest, can you point to a Labour government that meets your ideals?

    It’s what’s needed when the economy is on its arse though. Can’t cut your way out of recession.

    IIRC when the Tories came in the economy was growing again, and Osbourne cut that off at the knees and plunged us back into recession with austerity.

    You tell me, you’re the one who spends their time fighting for a right wing government.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Ah yes as opposed to the opposition who were totally for more regulation. He’s admitted his mistake though. PFI and Iraq were more a Blair thing, you’ll find no argument from me there. Except again the reason for PFI was the ridiculous economic orthodoxy which meant having to find another way...

    USSR invades Ukraine.

    USSR invades Ukraine.

    Was reading a Twitter thread earlier that suggested the aim is attritional defence in the East (where it’s all mud and not but progress is likely right now, so just let the Russian keep throwing mobniks into the meat grinder) and what looks like prep for an offensive in the south to cut the...

    USSR invades Ukraine.

    Yeah I’d agree. I think they’ve been too worried about escalation when we know Putin will just keep escalating anyway. It’s notable how those countries closest to Russia are the keenest to go hard early, they know how Russia works and that they only respect force.
