.Whole “full fat” Milk 🥛 No, the opinion was always there, and much of the opposition to mass immigration came from tribal Labour voters who would not give me the time of day. The Referendum released them from their usual Labour loyalty. Hence the result.

2/2 .Whole “full fat” Milk 🥛. I've been appearing on QT since 1996(with a gap 2018-21).I have, I think , always been placed in one of the seats on the edge of the panel, rather than the central ones. I've noticed no linear change in the response to me, which varies from year to year.

1/2 .Whole “full fat” Milk 🥛, As I have many times ex-lained, I am rude when politeness has plainly failed, not before.
You have delusions of grandeur if you think you can 'swat away' another equal person who's using the same social media as you are.

.Alison Black. I have been attacking Sir Keir for some time. This, from 2022, may interest you : dailymail.co.uk/debate/article… as may this from 2021 :hitchensblog.mailonsunday.co.uk/2021/02/peter-… or this from 2020 hitchensblog.mailonsunday.co.uk/2020/10/briton…

.@kto_kogo_ It was a slim chance in 2010. Now if the Tories die they will be replaced by some ghastly Thatcher Tribute Band, who will be only too glad to accept PR elections, so they can survive as a permanent minority.

.Whole “full fat” Milk 🥛 Why be so rude to .Shaun Wing? As I recall, you engaged him yesterday. You made an assertion about QT audiences. Btw, as I was banned from the programme from March 2018 until December 2022, you may struggle to find what you seek.

.Whole “full fat” Milk 🥛 No, I have found that QT audiences are usually frankly baffled by everything I say, as they have never heard it before. Even if I say something they agree with, they hesitate to applaud, as it comes from me.

Indeed they did. .David Calow ✨ The idea that the majority of the British people value their privacy and liberty has been thooughly exploded over the past 25 years. When some ghastly despotic eader finally arrives to rule severely over the ruins, he or she will be welcomed with sighs…

.@mrbiswaz . Think of a Starmer govt as assisted dying for the nation. Many of us hope to die before the country dies. Worse is by definition worse than bad. It’s the ‘vote Starmer and get a right-wing revolution’ wing-nuts who think we can be saved by Suella, Nigel, Kemi
etc.

.Manfred 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 But the Brown plan will put the new 2nd chamber under the control of the big parties, who vet all candidates. So they will be ruled by the executive. The great paradox, is that the unelected Lords before 1997 were less under executive control than the elected Commons.

1/2 Manfred 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 The pre-Blair House of Lords was a surpisingly effective revising chamber, which the government could not easily control. The current needless mess is much less effective and I agree it has to go.

. Jacques Schitt I had such a plan and advocated it for many years, during which people like you either ignored me or abused me. The chance for it is now gone.

Well, if so, .Onlypussiesblock it is just as daft. You don' destroy politicians by sending them off to spend more time with their money.
