    Regarding England Players taking the knee in a stance against racism...

    "For the first time in my life I will not be watching my beloved England team whilst they are supporting a political movement whose core principles aim to undermine our very way of life."

    Lee Anderson

    https://www.nottinghampost.com/news/...ngland-5611162


    Councillor Lee Anderson suspended by Labour Party in 2018 for dumping boulders to block access to a Traveller camp site

    https://www.chad.co.uk/news/councill...-group-1047424


    ...he then defects to the Conservatives shortly after, then this happens...

    "'Nuisance' council tenants 'should live in tents' says Ashfield Tory candidate"

    "...certain "nuisance tenants" on the Carsic estate were "making people's lives a complete misery".He then said: "These people, who have to live somewhere, let's have them in a tent, in the middle of a field.

    "Six o'clock every morning, let's have them up. Let's have them in the field, picking potatoes or any other seasonal vegetables, back in the tent, cold shower, lights out, six o'clock, same again the next day."

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/election-2019-50474572


    He's later investigated by the Conservative party for Anti-Semitism

    https://www.theguardian.com/politics...d-antisemitism


    And most recently, the foodbank statement.


    What a guy!

    He is a detestable excuse for a human being, Keith.

    He parrots the 'I was a miner, my dad was a miner' working class hero stuff in interview after interview - one of them a rather chummy affair with Nigel Farage. He is an inverted snob and a con man. He reminds me of the old Harry Enfield Yorkshireman character, 'I say what I like and I like what I bloody well say'. Christ, you'd think him and his dad were the only people who ever went down a pit.

    He was once caught out setting up a fake interview with a mate when out canvassing and door knocking

    Jack Monroe is destroying him on Twitter I see, he may be facing legal action if he doesn’t take some of his defamatory posts down. What a nasty piece of work he is.

    Possible libel against Anderson I see.

    Most people, even those you don't generally agree with can sometimes say and do good things. Anderson is one of those people who seem totally irredeemable in almost every thought and action. The millionaire Anderson has a screw loose.

    'In the new clip Lee Anderson blasts Jack Monroeafter she called him a “rich, white privileged male”
    He told Martin Dubney: “I’m giving my time & my money to help the people in Ashfield. She’s taking money off some of the most vulnerable in society.”
    He then claimed that she has made a lot of money selling books, ‘she is taking money off some of the most vulnerable in society and making an absolute fortune on the back of people. I’m not rich.”'

    I’m a big fan of Jack Monroe, her response to the ridiculous pile on she’s experienced from right wingers over the last few days is below.
    I hope her defamation lawsuits are as successful as hers against that sackful of bile and hate Katie Hopkins.

    As sad as it is that this niche for her exists (a criticism not of her and one I'm sure she'd agree with with) I find her a beacon of hope and goodness in an increasingly bleak landscape.

    She has good on her side and is articulate and intelligent enough to be able to use it.

    Very well said Smartie. I also find some inspiration that there are still people like her around.

    Crazy isn't it? What kind of person wants to stand in the way of and object to someone doing good for others.

    I noticed after Anderson invited the world to Sutton-in-Ashfield to view 'his' food bank, a prominent older lady involved in running it sought to distance herself from his views in front of the cameras. She was obviously somewhat inhibited or intimidated by Anderson shouting off and bringing national media to the food bank in expressing her views but nevertheless did not agree with his point of view. Then again, her only reason for being there was to help others less fortunate, not make political capital out of it like Anderson.

    Glad to read this news about Jack Monroe sueing. Perhaps it will teach him to stop lashing out at everyone who doesn't agree with him though I somehow doubt that.

    Bitterly disappointed in the people of Grantham.

    It took two full hours after the statue being erected for it to be egged.

    PS There is no harbour in Grantham.

    I’ve been following her for a long time and she’s genuine and bases her politics on real life experience, also lived on the breadline herself as a single parent in Kent on benefits. A lot of her recipes are based on canned and frozen food and are damn tasty, reflecting the reality that ‘fresh’ food isn’t always necessary to make most recipes. It’s a central truth that more knowledge about cooking and being frugal is necessary, but this Tory twists that and makes it into a dividing line between the deserving and undeserving poor. Disgusting really.

    Reported on LBC earlier that a leaked document from Liz Truss's office had plans for the Government to purchase one of the most sought after town houses in Manhattan valued at approx £20m, the reason "to entertain foreign dignitaries and business people". So that's a new ship, two planes one of which with fancy paintwork and now a £20m party pad in Manhattan. Some people don't seem to be struggling as much as others.

    Aye, but the entertaining will be at a cost of 30p per head, obviously! 🤔
    There is no such thing as too much yarn, just not enough time.

    I watched that yesterday….the best bit is where Kwasi blames the EU for their legalist thinking…I.e they won’t break their own laws to do what we want them
    to.

    Only one goal in appointing people to the cabinet: candidates should not be seen by Tory members as a possible successor to Johnson in the event of a leadership challenge.

    Two routes: appoint people who either
    (1) have brown skin
    (2) are visibly stupid

    or both, like Patel.

    Maclean is a number 2.

    The cokehead is an outlier here, but I can't think of any other exceptions.

    He's a tory jock. He knows what the jocks need to keep them onside and save the union.
    I saw him pretending to be an American and a Liverpudlian on the tellybox the other day. Is he going to be wheeled out to do a Scottish accent at some point as well?
