It's the detail again though Oldie isn't it. Just what are they renting for 6.4 million? and how long for? Is it just a warehouse for six months, or an airfield with hangers, living accomodation, catering areas etc for 20 years? The figure is meaningless without any detail. Hiring aircraft fuselages? Not something I've ever done, but what is the going rate? How long are they being rented for? Once again, without any details the figures are meaningless. Those are not the questions. The big question is we have spent top side of £1/4 Billion for f*CK all. Why? No idea why we have spent so much. I imagine a lot of it was on legal fees.

I have told you before on here, that a friend of mine who runs a 'British Shop' in Germany was having food imported from the UK being held-up for six weeks in Germany customs with things like sausages & bacon being off even before they arrived. . It works both ways. Why should the UK allow EU food to come into the UK willy nilly when it is the EU that have imposed these measures. Nobody imposed any measures until we left. The new Trade Treaty with the EU imposed these measures. The EU implemented them almost immediately whilst our Government held off untill this April (2 years?) because faced with horror of what they had done, they didn't do it. Now they have. Do you also not see the damage to trade? You are saying that the UK should not impose these measures, yet you ignore the fact that it was the EU that first imposed them ! If it damages imports, then so be it. Maybe British firms can step up to fill the gaps eh!

"The contract was signed with HCP LR Cardington LP, a property partnership with complex ownership but linked to a pair of super-rich Tory donors, The Mirror notes. Billionaire brothers Ian and Richard Livingstone gave nearly £150,000 to the Tories between 2005 and 2018, including a £10,000 donation to Foreign Secretary Lord Cameron’s 2005 leadership campaign. As well as the £6.4 million in rent, the Home Office is spending £670,000 on hiring three aircraft fuselages. Another £315,000 bill is for catering but it is not known how much will be paid to Mitie for the training." A bit wishy washy Oldie. In what way are they "linked"? It doesn't say so. Money paid to Lord Carrington 24 years ago? Grasping for straws just a bit don't you think? It doesn't say how much is being paid to Mitie for the training. Just how many companies are there out there that can provide this type of training? I'd guess not many. So, this 'report' is really just throwing muck around in an attempt to make something stick. It's very short on fact. A fiasco of a "so called" policy, where in addition to the £oodles we have paid Rwanda in advance we are spending this "As well as the £6.4 million in rent, the Home Office is spending £670,000 on hiring three aircraft fuselages. Another £315,000 bill is for catering but it is not known how much will be paid to Mitie for the training." FFS Who are these people It's the detail again though Oldie isn't it.

Think you need to look into this a bit deeper Oldie. Why? GB News have been found guilty by Ofcom. That's it. And what about the Labour politicians on LBC?I Two weeks ago OFCOM were trying the same thing with Nigel Farage, until it was pointed out he is not a politician!I The left are desperate to shut down GB News. What a sad day that will be for free speech if it ever happens.

OK, so you cannot provide any evidence whatsoever concerning your claims over the Australian FTA and beef. So, now you try and change the subject. Why should the UK allow EU people to enter the country using an id card? I have a German id card, and all it basically does is show my picture, my name and address in Germany. It carries no more information than a driving license. Do you think the EU will allow anyone from the UK in using their driving licence! I don't think they will somehow.

and this is where OFCOM are seen to be falling apart. What about Labour politicians like Lammy or Jess Phillips who present shows on LBC? Not a squeak about them. Obviously they haven't broken any rules? Just a thought Think you need to look into this a bit deeper Oldie.

Link? How about. "Bob Taylor, a farmer from Cornwall says that the Australian FTA is working very well for him"........it means nothing does it. You keep saying it, but we need facts! It's not the farmer, that was just embellishment. It was a report by Kemi Badenoch's ministry. What report?

GB News, the favoured trash outlet for lovers of the Reform Party, has broken Ofcom rules. Again. After finding a classic example of rank misogyny "funny", leading Tories and favourites to abscond to Reform in "quiet desperation" (Pink Floyd) the Minister for the 18th Century and his fruit cake accomplice, the Minister for Common Sense (couldn't make that up could you, have been found to have broken the rules. BBC News - GB News shows hosted by MPs broke Ofcom rules www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-68596973and this is where OFCOM are seen to be falling apart. What about Labour politicians like Lammy or Jess Phillips who present shows on LBC? Not a squeak about them.

and with just a very quick look it appears our Liz is not just 'a farmer from Wiltshire' is she? We'll just put this story down as yet another piece of disingenuous information on your part shall we? ""British farmers export no beef to Australia under UK’s first post-Brexit FTA Australian farmers, meanwhile, have managed to export 1,700 tonnes of beef to the UK, according to the Department of Business and Trade"" From our own Government? 🤭🤭 Link? How about. "Bob Taylor, a farmer from Cornwall says that the Australian FTA is working very well for him"........it means nothing does it. You keep saying it, but we need facts!

Is that it? No link, no evidence? Are you sure you are not talking about Beef Jerky? In what way does a farmer in Wiltshire get involved in exporting meat to Australia?
Where are your famous 'facts'?

Is this the story related to Beef Jerky? It's a bit difficult to give your post any credit as it provides no context. 😂😱 The context is the FTA (alleged) between the UK and Australia No. The context is who is she? What position does she hold? What gives her this 'insight' to the FTA? Or is it just a quote from someone meaningless?

No, I'm not getting desperate Oldie but just pointing out the inaccuracies in your postings. Methinks a bit of English Comprehension is missing. Did you study Trigonometry? If so, place Reform talk / Policies on one page, on the the opposite page place Republican Maga talk / policies. Then overlay them. You get this "Congruence of triangles: Two triangles are said to be congruent if all three corresponding sides are equal and all the three corresponding angles are equal in measure. These triangles can be slides, rotated, flipped and turned to be looked identical. If repositioned, they coincide with each other." There you go. Try and think outside of prescribed tramlines, you might enjoy the light. For some on here though there is no hope (not you) No Oldie, don't try and pull the "I'm more intellectual than you" card. You castigate others on this forum for voicing their opinions and you try to belittle them when you dismiss their opinions and demand facts. Now you have voiced an opinion without any verifiable facts to back it up. You can't have one rule for yourself and another rule for others. May I suggest you refrain from dismissing the opinions of others yet you expect everyone to take your opinion as gospel.

Sorry, but where is your proof that the Reform Party will 'ban books'? You've made it up and it's a downright lie. Your attempts to mix the Reform Party with MAGA is another piece of nonsense. The Reform Party are a legal political party. MAGA is just a saying. You are the one constantly shouting about "facts", so let's hear your "Facts" about the Reform Party and book banning. Put up or shut up please. Equivalence, and it is not false. Yes it is. You are spreading lies! Where is your proof? Facts, dear boy, facts, as you keep insisting.

Sorry, you are just spreading false information. Show us just where you get the information regarding Reform and banning books! Your claims are absolute tosh. I am not spreading anything. I am stating an opinion that Reform is the equivalent of MAGA in the USA. It is not a false equivalence. As showed, they even share the same strap line. In the USA over the last couple of years removing books from libraries and school curriculum has become rampant, at least until the current push back. As I said, forewarned is forearmed. Am I waiting now for the Tories to ban themselves from Government after one of their members and leading donors said "she makes me hate all black women and should be shot". Extremist language if ever I have heard it. Even on here we have members advocating public hangings and castration. Those that did said they will vote Reform. Sorry, but in your deluded desperation to throw excretia at the Reform Party you are losing the plot. You are now trying to divert to 'Tories' and 'Racism'. "In the USA over the last couple of years removing books from libraries and school curriculum has become rampant" - and just who has been in charge over "the last couple of years"? and just what has that got to do with the Reform Party? You are spreading falsehoods and lies. Now you are trying to link anyone who say they will vote for the Reform Party as racists! Why do you do it?
