NEW: Theresa May on aid cut:
“This isn’t about palaces for dictators & vanity projects. It’s about what cuts to funding mean. Fewer girls will be educated, more boys & girls will bcm slaves, more children will go hungry & more of poorest people in world will die.”
Damned with feint praise.

Patel is no stranger to flak but on this occasion I'd venture to say Mings is off the mark. Her views on taking the knee chime with many, including black sportsmen and women. It's been phased out by an increasing number of teams including Scotland and I think he's playing the Tory minister here not the ball. I respect England for sticking with it as it clearly had a unifying effect but it's far from a universally backed gesture for tackling racism.Quote:

John Major giving the government a good kicking over the foreign aid cut. When even grandees of the centre right like May and Major are getting so shrill you know we’re being run by REAL extremists.
Still, at least it’s not Corbyn.
Also, keep an eye on the coverage (or non coverage) of the health and social care bill, the next step of the NHS sell off-by-stealth.

Health bill passes its second reading. Really strange, nothing on bbc, Guardian, surely flogging off more NHs services to private operators is an open goal for an opposition?
And it impacts the NHS in Scotland as well, if Westminster reduce the amount paid directly to the ENHS then the amount heading north drops by a similar %Quote:

More about the NHS bill, sneaking it’s way through second readings right now.
https://www.opendemocracy.net/en/our...CI101ky7BqM2PE
“Alongside the alarming drafting on rights to hospital care, the performance targets imposed by the bill scrap the 18-week target for waiting times, mentioning only a target of 52 weeks, for example.
Pollock and Roderick also point out that it scraps the “responsibility” the government has to arrange healthcare for each of us in England and replaces it with a – seemingly undefined, but presumably more restricted – “core responsibility” for uncertain “groups of people”. It also gives the health secretary the power to water down the requirement for staff to be properly trained and qualified.”

The parallels are very similar to what's going on here. The illegal proroguing of parliament, The union jackery, the One Britain thing in Schools, almost total control of the media, the banning of right to protest and other Draconian changes to law, the culture of xenophobia and treatment of immigrants.......etc, etc.
It might be slightly more subtle but that's only because they haven't got the uniforms yet.
I'm not sure it will make much difference to how England votes, I'm not actually sure if there is anything that the Tories could do that would stop them getting votes.Quote:

Anyone with a decent understanding of history should be extremely worried about all these little changes to the democratic weights and measures to democracy. Boris Johnson might or might not be a fascist, but his government are certainly laying the groundwork that would make it easier for a fascist to take control.Quote:

Hardly. She's not so dim that she didn't know she'd have to leave the chamber for that sort of lame stunt. How's she going to 'hold the government to account' if she's not present to do so? Repeated re-tweets to boost her own profile was her real target, not the PM.Quote:
