Boris Wie? Johnson? Ken ik niet (haan kraait op de achtergrond)quote:Boris Johnson’s political wizardry was once revered at his party’s annual jamborees. This year, even his staunchest allies don’t want to know him.
Facing a full-blown assault on their immigration and net-zero record from Nigel Farage’s insurgent Reform UK, senior British Conservatives are turning against the man whose electoral sorcery delivered them a landslide majority in 2019.
Het was natuurlijk een racist. Met "rechts-progressief" heeft het alweer niks te maken.quote:Op dinsdag 7 oktober 2025 17:04 schreef nostra het volgende:

‘Een van de beste politica’ kan niet. Politica is enkelvoud. Je kunt niet 1 van de beste 1 zijn. Het meervoud van politica is gewoon politici.quote:Op dinsdag 7 oktober 2025 17:04 schreef nostra het volgende:

[*]Plaid Cymru candidate Lindsay Whittle won with 47.38% of the vote, ahead of Reform UK with 35.9% - Labour was a distant third with 11.02%
• In his victory speech, Whittle urged the governments in Cardiff and Westminster to listen, saying he wants a "better deal" for every corner of Wales
• Party leader Rhun ap Iorwerth also said the people of Caerphilly had voted "loud and clear" for Plaid’s "positive, pro-Wales vision"
• Llyr Powell, Reform UK’s candidate, was defiant, saying that despite the defeat his party will form the next Welsh government in 2026
• Turnout was surprisingly high, with 50.43% of voters taking part – the first time a Welsh Parliament by-election has achieved a turnout of more than 50%
• Richard Tunnicliffe, Labour's candidate, paid tribute to Caerphilly’s former MS, Hefin David, describing him as a friend and mentor
• Labour First Minister Eluned Morgan said the by-election had been conducted in the "toughest of circumstances and in the midst of difficult headwinds nationally", adding that the party heard people’s frustrations on the doorstep

quote:Britain’s failing state is handing Farage win after win
“There is a deep disillusionment in this country at the moment and I would say a growing sense of despair about whether anyone is capable of turning this country around,” Wes Streeting, the health secretary and a close ally of Starmer, acknowledged in a broadcast interview on Sunday.
Starmer — who has hit out at the legacy handed to him by the Conservatives from their 14 years in power — has hardly been shy about criticizing the state either.
His claim last December that “too many people in Whitehall are comfortable in the tepid bath of managed decline” even prompted accusations from civil service unions that he was using “Trumpian language.”
MPs are not so squeamish. A parliamentary committee on Monday launched a blistering attack on the Home Office — Britain’s interior ministry — which it said had squandered billions of pounds on the U.K.’s “failed, chaotic and expensive” asylum accommodation system.
Reform — which, apart from recently gained footholds in local government, currently has the luxury of observing rather than running things — insists it would take a different tack. Kruger said Tuesday’s speech would be “high level.”
He argues the country is facing a “multifactor crisis,” which makes an argument for “wholesale reform” of the machinery of state more “politically compelling and acceptable.”
“Being radical is becoming something that respectable mainstream parties need to do. We’re not diluting our radicalism, it’s that our radicalism is becoming more acceptable,” he said.
The Shovelquote:Unemployed Man Evicted From Public Housing
A 65-year-old Windsor man has been ordered to vacate his publically-owned housing after falling out with the landlord and allegedly pursuing a life of crime.
The man, known by locals only as “Andrew” or “sex offender”, has lived in the property for more than 20 years under a long-term public housing arrangement with the Crown Estate, a Government body that provides affordable accommodation to unemployed Britons.
Friends say the eviction notice has hit Andrew hard. “It’s not easy finding another Government-subsidised mansion in this market,” one associate said. “He may now be forced to live in a house with only ten bedrooms and that’s going to be very squeezy for him. Where is he going to keep his teddy bear collection and legal bills?”
Under the eviction order, Andrew has been offered smaller public accommodation nearby, believed to be the Frogmore Cottage complex, previously occupied by another young couple forced to leave after ‘differences with management’.
Andrew is reportedly considering appealing the eviction. “He is looking into his rights as a tenant,” one source said. “Although he’s not great with legal documents. Every time someone mentions ‘lease conditions,’ he says he doesn’t recall ever meeting her”.
Heb bij zulke clubjes juist altijd het idee dat ze prima weten wat en hoe, maar dat ze het expres niet doen. Net als bij onze Tjer die zijn neveninkomsten niet op wil geven.quote:Op vrijdag 31 oktober 2025 12:30 schreef George_of_the_Jungle het volgende:
Reform weet zelf niet eens goed wat belasting nu is, en wanneer het betaald moet worden.
Ze 'vergaten' VAT te betalen over sales (kaartjes, merchandise etc). En dat zou dan het belastingbeleid op moeten tuigen.

Tjer geeft tenminste nog redelijk wat inkomsten van de partij op. Geertje doet dat niet. Waar FvD in 2023 bijna 5 miljoen aan inkomsten opgaf, gaf Geertje er slechts een paar duizend max op geloof ik. Die vent lijkt van water en lucht te leven.quote:Op vrijdag 31 oktober 2025 12:39 schreef xpompompomx het volgende:
