A YouGov/Sky poll indicates 75% of adults believe that things are worse or much worse in the UK now than they were when the Tories came to power in 2010.
Only 7% (many of whom presumably post regularly on this forum) believe that things have got better or much better.

I see Mr Trump is very fond of Our Nigel Farage.
And Nigel is polling well in Clacton. So that's nice.

Yougov just did most extensive poll in 5 years (14,000 people)

It was commissioned by the Conservative Britain Alliance for the Times

= Labour majority of 120

Hunt, Mordaunt, Anderson etc etc to lose their seats

Which is nice...

How rude.

What's rude about that ?

Back to the News: "Donald Trump's Victim Shtick Is Getting Old" a recent article in the New Yorker. Apparently America's constitution will (technically) allow a committed criminal to be President, ruling from jail. Leaders of the free world ?

The head of the Neapolitan Camorra used to rule from jail.
Same sort of thing - just slightly more criminal.

Yes but they crossed out the bit where it said it will allow it, if said criminal is a white, multi-millionaire

Meanwhile he is in court again today to discuss how much in damages he has to pay the woman he defamed after being find liable of sexually assaulting her

He did ok in Iowa though.
I do hope he's the next president.

We never doubted for a minute.

Donald Trump 2016 - "I love the poorly educated"

Was he talking about Trump University graduates ? It's no wonder they closed that business down.

No, just simple minded morons in general

Talking of simple minded morons - Lee Anderson quits as deputy chairman

Probably off to Reform

Hilarious

I wish this climate crisis would hurry up, It's bloody taters today.
Might be the coldest January in 14 years. The crisis/disaster is going the wrong way.
