We are seeing an increase in homophobic attacks and misogyny in main stream society UK, this statement just adds more detachment, alienation, fear. All protected characteristics are at risk too..

simply being gay, or a woman should not by itself be enough to gain protection under international refugee laws - Suella Braverman
go to hell you vile woman
less that 4% of asylum claims mention sexuality, its just more tory culture war bollocks. She really is vile, she's my MP, there's zero hope of her being voted out, the people of Fareham are equally as vile.

We are seeing an increase in homophonic attacks here in the UK,
Attacks on things that sound the same?

Yeah, well those paediatricians deserve what's coming to them!

This is it isn't it.
Obviously simply being a woman shouldn't grant you asylum. But it doesn't does it?
I mean that alone is a pretty fucking evidently a fact as otherwise you'd be able to clear a good chunk of the backlog in an instant.

To be fair, these people should also have to be coming from a country where they are likely to be persecuted for being those things.
Somewhere like the UK feels currently.
Foul bloody woman, and the fact that no10 apparently proof read the speech and ok'd, also fuck Sunak.
-
• #5034
also fuck Sunak.
Just all Tories and those who vote for them
-
• #5035
Obviously but also fuck those mugs who voted for the coalition too. The consequences of that and the role that played in leading to this shit are never properly weighed. It didn’t take a genius to see where it was headed though.

Nice sobering review of Theresa's new book by Chris Bryant:
So, buy it and read it, if only to remember that we’ve now had five duff Tory PMs in a row.

Such utter sodding nonsense. Its this kind of shit and support from the right wing press that lets the Tory party blame labour for pretty much everything even after 13 years of them being in government. Its sickening.
They never ever take responsibility for their own failings, even when they say "I take full responsibility" they just don't.

this guy is fucking nuts even by crazy tory sycophant standards.

Absolutely unhinged.
And here he is on the Truss/Kwarteng mini-budget
“This was the best Budget I have ever heard a British Chancellor deliver, by a massive margin. The tax cuts were so huge and bold, the language so extraordinary, that at times, listening to Kwasi Kwarteng, I had to pinch myself to make sure I wasn’t dreaming….” - the language was fucking extraordinary, you’re right there Allister.
I’ll have grudging respect if it all turns out to be some sort of performance art

Sunak doubles down on his anti-green credentials
https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2023/sep/28/rishi-sunak-expected-to-limit-powers-of-councils-in-england-to-curb-car-use-20mph-speed-limit-traffic-camera-finesPlus, ever the slimy shit, tries to distance himself from Braverman’s comments - you re-appointed her within days of her getting sacked and approved her speech, you absolute gaslighting horror.
But yes, “they’re all the same”

“Prioritising cars in this way serves no one – not pedestrians, not cyclists, not users of public transport. It doesn’t even benefit drivers, who will face more congestion.”

• #5043
It serves the Tories in trying to create an anti-car wedge issue - and that’s all that counts for them

First they came for my Mondeo, and I'd forgotten that I could no longer afford to fill it up anyway.

For anyone who doesn't get your reference
First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a socialist.
Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a trade unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me. -
• #5046
I'm pretty sure anyone reading the Tory thread on a forum full of lefties will get that reference. Although I slipped in a little one to Mondeo man as well because I'm very clever.

Q: What about HS2 to Manchester?
A. Potholes.
Madness.

At least you have to assume that when they start guffing on about potholes and inheritance tax they're basically signalling that they're clutching at straws.

Feels like the blow hard mail reading cretins in the pub are actually running the country now. Farage/UKIP takeover complete. Now can we have a GE and get rid of them asap please.

Sadly at least 1 in 5, maybe more, look at the Tory values and their rock solid track record in government and think “yep, they’ll do for me”.
I’m not electorate blaming, more what the actual fuck?
Just the 62 countries where homosexuality is criminalised, including three countries where it is still punishable by death.
