The British social attitudes survey revealed a growing lack of confidence in politicians and the political system.

Re: 2024 General Election
Yes, that's common assault:
"Common assault is when a person inflicts violence on someone else or makes them think they are going to be attacked. It does not have to involve physical violence. Threatening words or a raised fist is enough for the crime to have been committed provided the victim thinks that they are about to be attacked. Spitting at someone is another example"
And it's not particularly new:
"Offences of assault fall under the Offences against the Person Act 1861, the Criminal Justice Act 1988 and the Crime and Disorder Act 1998."

Re: 2024 General Election
Bless, the SNP cares about the rest of the UK.BBC wrote:In the interview with the SNP's John Swinney, we're now onto tax.
He says the UK should replicate Scotland’s system of taxing higher earners to avoid more austerity after the election.
Or is it that he's worried about the net migration of higher rate tax payers going south of the border.

Yeah, not something you'd send your Nan a link to. I think they must really dislike Farage; I've not seen that level of vitriol deployed against anyone else.

I refrained from commenting about it because I thought "OK, maybe it really is funny and my bias prevents me from seeing the joke". So thanks for that, it's nice to know it's not just me.Tricky wrote: ↑Wed Jun 12, 2024 8:42 pmBlimey.mangocrazy wrote: ↑Tue Jun 11, 2024 8:46 pm Broken News's take on Herr Farrago's reappearance on the UK's electoral stage:

Re: 2024 General Election
I watched 10-15mins of the political debate on ITV tonight.
The main point I took away was that, if it was life or death, out of all of them, I'd probably shag Penny Mordaunt.

Dunno if Wes Streeting was in the program (cos I didn't watch it) but if he was he'd probably be looking to shag your arse, life or death or anything else for that matter.KungFooBob wrote: ↑Thu Jun 13, 2024 9:26 pm I watched 10-15mins of the political debate on ITV tonight.

She reminds me of my maths teacher, Gladys Prior. Every teenage boy in the school fantasised about her magnificent rack. Every teenage boy was also terrified of her.KungFooBob wrote: ↑Thu Jun 13, 2024 9:26 pm I watched 10-15mins of the political debate on ITV tonight.

Course of course you would. It was an all boys school too.
