The Politics Thread

[BWFC_Insane]

I tried to ignore the whole farce yesterday but ended up reading 2 accounts with photographs of families sat near him who said the train was packed. I thought (& the story may have moved on since then so aplos) that seats then became available when a family moved into 1st class?

It turns out there were empty seats. Just not "two together".

Politician tries to make a point - however badly and ham fisted about a train service.

Train service is upset at perceived criticism so bites back.

Politician responds with his version of events.

I'm with Bish - how can any of us know what the actual sequence of events was and the whole truth of the matter? Perhaps my liking of JC makes me more inclined to believe his version. Perhaps others disliking of him leads to them championing Virgins version?

Imagine, if you can for a second, that there was this level of scrutiny applied to all political discourse in this country.

FFS Corbyn and his team have conceded there were free seats that he didn't sit in because he only wanted to sit with his wife.

The amount of FUD Corbyn supporters are trying to produce to hide the fact that he sat on the floor when there were actually free seats is embarrassing.

Canary.

LOL.

Farage will speak at a Trump rally in Mississippi. Should please Hilary.

I'm surprised Donnie hasn't promised to introduce a Barbaric Cultural Act Tip Line yet. Maybe a bit too far for him. Anyway should be a fun rally tonight. Wonder why Farage would chose to speak in Mississippi. Kind of leaves himself open.

We have a moat, no need for a wall just a few more police/navy vessels

One Tory MP managed to count British Empire Olympic medals against the RoW and the EU - get on message man.

Best retort of the day 'any stats on how the Austro-Hungarian Empire got on?'.

I'd put my worldly possessions on her signing the petition to have a return to blue passports.

Out of morbid curiosity, what was the result, Worthy? Was she allowed to count the USA as once part of the British Empire?

Hmm. It is probably a pretty stupid thing to say. And frankly some people will be offended by it in the same way as if someone had proclaimed sucess at the Olympics for the German-Nazi "empire" of 1941 is vintage....
