    If it is true that racism is a mental illness/ distortion/delusion, I can’t help but wonder what else Nigel Farage has yet to be diagnosed with…

    Re:jw68,

    I'm afraid I've come to the conclusion that it is what people want. This country is about the haves and have not. The ones that have(jobs that is) couldn't care less about the ones that don't. This government and the previous ones think they made a mistake bringing into existence working tax credit and uc. They think they now have to get rid of them benefits and others, to get back to how it was. Ironically Labour started all this by getting rid of old system and introducing esa and the like. It was called invalidity benefit etc. Labour have only just started. Getting rid of rayner has just prolonged the procedure. Mark my words. Starmer needs to go. But he won't. Labour mps won't get rid of him, they're to frightened of losing there gravy train.

    Isn't this what this is really all about? Be honest with yourself, you must know it's true, not a single one of those 600 odd mps are in it for any of us have not.

    Socrates,

    1. It has always been that way and yes, that's austerity for you!

    2. This is rooted in an ESA scam which began before Keir Starmer was even an MP! The villain is Iain Duncan Smith. The year is 2011 (Coalition government). Cemented by the Welfare Reform Act 2012. Effective from 1st April (haha) 2013 and it's called Universal Credit.

    The rest is just noise. The collaborators would love a leadership contest to distract you from their connivance! It will change nothing.

    Hi cherry 70,

    Re:your earlier your post about farage with the garage (mouth,) he almost reminds of a kid I once knew at school.He was new to us. Bit of a novelty in fact. He spoke ridiculously in 2 different ways, 1st he talk quite eloquently. almost posh. But the more he spoke, he would eventually lapse into "northern speak". Quite bizarre. Couldn't help but laugh at him and his speech defect. It eventually transpired that his dad was a drug runner and his mum spent her life looking after him and the kid…charming! He tried so hard get rid of his family and past, by constantly putting down folk who he considered quote, people beneath him, unqoute. Now.. My question is not really about race etc. But can someone please tell me the difference between the boy at school, farage, starmer and all the other mp's who sit in the house of commons and play god with decisions…when the fancy takes them that is, in other words when they could be bothered to show up!! In my humble opinion when I was talking of the boy and his past my mind immediately goes to starmer. The boy who grew up to be pm and his dad was a tool maker. I since been told that's not all the story. Apparently his dad owned the tool making business. He should read the tale of icarus.. I digress
