Prove us wrong.

Labour have achieved more in a month than the last three PMs put together. We need to build prisons but it didn’t happen for 14 years of inept Tory governments.

4m voted for Reform, that is a fuck lot of people. 

Not everyone  with concerns about immigration voted for Reform

The Challenge for Starmer is how he addresses those concerns. He is in a good place to do it as he does not need to demonise specific minority groups to make the majority feel better. 
 

If alongside that he can get the economy moving a lot of the social issues will seem less extreme. 
 

So if he could address the issues around immigration - the backlog and what we do the rejected applicants - and then sort the economy it will be a good first 6 weeks although I am sure some will still blame him for the state of our midfield

You’ll be propping up Casinos pension when his time comes. I hope you keep reminding him😉

You could also try and persuade the rest of your generation to stay at home. They seem to be doing most of the rioting👍

I wish I had that level of influence with the rioting knobheads of my generation.

Sadly, as a lefty snowflake who doesn't believe Islam is the root of every issue in our society, I feel I'd be pissing in the wind 😊

Go on then, I'd love to hear your strategy.

Twitter users latest deflection tactic is to blame Starmer and the 'legacy' media (this has replaced MSM as the description) for putting out false stories about events tonight causing all the disruption. 
 

What a strange world

I’m waiting for you to get back about how Labour built more council houses than conservatives. 
 

Facts and history and all that bollocks 

[Wanderlust]

The vast number of counter-protestors that turned out tonight just goes to show what a tiny proportion of the population have "legitimate concerns" about immigration.

The racists are a tiny, tiny, tiny gobby minority.

Spot on.

Who would have thought that the real world is many shades of grey rather than just black & white.

Rain is the short term route out of this and economic growth (that is shared beyond the 1%) is the long term one.

As has been pointed out these protestors are thick, but counter protesting a protest that wasn’t even happening is very special.

You asked me to prove you wrong when I said both were poor, Labour were poorer. I told you it was further up the page. 
 

Facts and all that bollocks hey 👍

I didn't, but you proved nothing. 

With a bit of time of your hands, instead of trying to make weak points - perhaps pick up a book or two?

There's no way he was in set 2 for anything, apart from maybe PE.

How did I not prove it? Is it because the figures didn’t reflect what you thought? 
 

Im in the middle of a cracking book at the minute, to be fair I thought you may have been the main character who is also the author. It’s called the Madonna of Bolton. Young lad at school, shit at football, hung around with girls and was always being bullied.

See sometimes you can be right. Set 1 for everything 👍 I didn’t take PE

Under Labour, between 1997 and 2010 there were 2,780 council homes built with a peak of 320 in 2010. Since then, there have been 10,310 homes built by councils, giving the Conservatives an even more handsome win than Ms May suggested.

Not saying this is wrong, but what is the source?

Good Lord. Glad I didn't go to your school.

Can’t remember now. Type into google “who built the most council houses” and then just like magic you will get the answers 👍
