Sunak Reported to Scottish Police.
Sunak made what would be His last speech before next year's general election. One of the most controversial parts of the speech was about HS2. Despite West Midland's Mayor Andy Street and Greater Manchester's Mayor Andy Burnham's protestations, HS2 is being wound up. There had been speculation about, what, exactly Sunak and Chancellor Hunt would do about it. Sunak revealed, in his conference speech, that HS2 would be closed down between Birmingham and Manchester. Instead, Sunak said, the 6 million that it was taking to construct the line would be ploughed back into developing motorways, in need, of repair. That's all well and good, but one of the reasons for constructing the rail system was to take traffic off the road. Now with the winding up of the Birmingham - Manchester line, more commuters must find alternative ways of travelling. Which will create more congestion on our already busy roads and motorways.
Nicholas BishopPublished 6 months ago in The SwampThe World According to Laurence Fox
I’ll level with you from the outset; I’ve never really liked Laurence Fox. Well, that’s a lie, as I always enjoyed his portrayal of Sgt Hathaway in Lewis. I wish he’d stuck to that sort of thing. Ever since his foray into politics with his car crash of an appearance on Question Time, he just hasn’t been my cup of tea. Which is interesting because he’s often put into a “camp” of sorts with people who I do have a lot of time for, i.e. those who believe in free speech, old-fashioned liberalism, challenging authorities/narratives, scepticism, disdain of all major political parties and how they’re so similar to each other etc. etc.

Last night, while watching YouTube, one of the content creators I enjoy mentioned something intriguing—a new group or organization. It made me wonder if this could potentially be the next example of a situation similar to Keith Raniere, who is currently serving a life sentence for his involvement in sex trafficking and cult-building, with Allison Mack at the helm of that pyramid scheme.

Suella Braverman, make no, mistake, knows the game is up for the Tories. If polls are proven to be true, Sunak and his Mob will be toast, at the next general election. So, with that in mind, Suella was setting out her stall as a potential successor to Wishy-Washy. However, she did it, behind the guise of redefining what a 'refugee' is.
