Oh look, the inmates of the babble-house are babbling nonsense again and pretending that one of the biggest morons in Parliament (a tall order I know, he's up against Cash, Ree-Smug, Patel, Braverman and Boris 'I'll do anything for attention' Johnson) is in any way relevant.
No. Just... no.

I have no words for the current Tory government. Corrupt, incompetent and pathetic excuses for a government. I feel embarrassed at the fact that these imbeciles represent my Government. And no, I am not a Labour supporter. Starmer does appear to be more competent than Sunak, but that's not a high bar to beat.

Some fair points made but objectively speaking do you not think this American pic can also be used to illustrate British politics?
(Particularly the bankster in the sky)
If the majority of politicians are now in lockstep with pharma cartel corporate banksters (which looks very much to be the case) then WTF is the point of quibbling about sides?
Either way they are playing everyone like a fiddle.
To be certain we suffered through a plague all right.
A plague of mismanagement still going strong in Biden climate change land.
I do find it sad that most politicians aren't there to listen, it shows how little they actually care about the people they are supposed to represent!

If our polticans actually did represent us the people things would have being better. I would be more interested into why our polticans would rather defend big pharma and companies like Pf.
That same company that tried to hide data for 70 years.

Even if the Nazis had never come to power, the ‘progressive’ eugenicists would have been exposed as the cranks that they were.

When I post a topic then I want to create it in a simple way because I don't want to tell people what to believe, etc. I want people to think for themselves and form their own opinion.
It is a brilliant article by Iain Davis at In This Together and I strongly recommend reading it if you want to have any chance of turning things around.

Most alarming, many of its leading advocates were found among the luminaries of the Fabian and socialist left, men and women revered to this day. Thus George Bernard Shaw could insist that "the only fundamental and possible socialism is the socialisation of the selective breeding of man", even suggesting, in a phrase that chills the blood, that defectives be dealt with by means of a "lethal chamber".
Such thinking was not alien to the great Liberal titan and mastermind of the welfare state, William Beveridge, who argued that those with "general defects" should be denied not only the vote, but "civil freedom and fatherhood". Indeed, a desire to limit the numbers of the inferior was written into modern notions of birth control from the start.
JBS Haldane, admired scientist and socialist, warned that: "Civilisation stands in real danger from over-production of 'undermen'." That's Untermenschen in German.
Progressives face a particular challenge, to cast off a mentality that can too easily regard people as means rather than ends. For in this respect a movement is just like a person: it never entirely escapes its roots.
