Government destroys £1.4bn of PPE from one Covid deal..by Jon Ironmonger, BBC Investigations, Northamptonshire.Yet another scandal involving the government / NHS www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cll476qzm85o This demonstrates the stupidity of the MSM and the way they report things. When Covid struck there was much criticism of the government/NHS because there was not enough PPE in stock to go around. What followed was a massive scramble by governments around the world to get PPE, ironically from China. It costs a lot of money to buy and store this equipment. It also has a shelf-life, so has to be replaced constantly. Lack of PPE was a stick that the MSM beat the government with at the time. Now, there is enough PPE in stock, however, as I have stated, it has a shelf-life. It has to be destroyed and replaced. This costs a huge amount of money. The government/NHS has learned the lesson from Covid, however it is now another stick the MSM are using to beat the government/NHS. In reality it is just unresponsible reporting. Anything for the 'shock' factor.

I can't find the post or thread it was on, but someone mentioned the possibility of civil war in France, whereupon they were derided by Oldie.
Well.......
" Emmanuel Macron warns France on brink of 'civil war' over election he called
Mr Macron said: "I think that the solutions given by the far right are out of the question because it is categorising people in terms of their religion or origins and that is why it leads to division and to civil war."
He expressed similar concerns about the policy proposals tabled by the extreme left-wing party La France Insoumise (LFI), a leading partner in the New Popular Front coalition.
The French leader added: "But that one as well, there is a civil war behind that because you are solely categorising people in terms of their religious outlook or the community they belong to, which in a way is a means of justifying isolating them from the broader national community, and in this case, you would have a civil war with those who do not share those same values.""

".for anyone tempted to stand up for Johnson just tell me how many children he has fathered ?" - The rumour mill suggests that this would be an interesting question to ask Starmer.

Something strange going on? All the polls indicate a huge Labour win, but I don't think I've actually spoken to anyone who will vote Labour! People have certainly had enough of the Tories, and once again nobody I have spoken with will vote Tory. There does seem to be a huge disconnect between people and our political parties.

I am currently reading "1812 Napoleon's Fatal March on Moscow" by Adam Zamoyski. If you are interested in this period then this is a must read book. I have read about the 1812 campaign but I had a look on Amazon and the reviews for this book are good and there are copies on E bay for very little so I will give it a go ,I am actually in the process of getting rid of books. I found it interesting that although we are told about the retreat from Moscow being a disaster (which it was ) tens of thousands dying of cold,starvation etc, we dont get told that the Grand army was in real trouble before Borodino and taking Moscow, horses dying,men starving,desertion there were also cholera and typhoid outbreaks The problem was logistics,same for the Germans in WW2 and someone should tell the latest diminutive French leader that his sabre rattling could end up with another disaster,Russia is a big place and swallows up armies who cant be supplied. Oh yes, the Grande Army suffered terribly during the advance. It was beaten even before it got to Moscow. It was never Napoleon's intention to go to Moscow, but it seems as though his ego got the better of him.

This guy is a beauty. He was the main Lawyer for the Post Office. Just listen to him lie that he had not seen this e-mail, he didn't save it to his personal hard drive and he didn't print it off. He claims at the time he did not have the technical expertise to save a file nor print it off. Mr Beer KC can hardly contain his anger at this downright lying. It is there in black & white that he had saved the file and he had printed it off as it's on the Footer of the document! It was printed nine minutes after he received it. Is that perjury,? I don't think so. Even though they are sworn in under Oath it is not a criminal case. However, I am pretty sure that testimony given here can be used in a future criminal case. Any legal eagles reading this help us out? It is so obvious this guy is lying through his back teeth.

I'm still watching the live feed of the Horizon Enquiry. It's compulsive viewing watching these PO staff being found out with their lies. Mr Beer KC is ripping them apart on a daily basis. Some of these people need to go to prison. I hope there are prosecutions following on from the enquiry, but I won't hold my breath.

Is this bloke still dodging questions about the Horizon Post Office scandal? For his role in that he should be barred from ever holding public office again.

I know...about 6 months ago I wrote on here that I was going to rejoin that forum under another name,it was said Semi tongue in cheek,well apparently they said in a thread on there that if he does we will banned again! Lol - That's 2nd hand info, so I'm not sure if correct. Administration clique..🤡😆 Yes it is.. They can't debate or are willing to listen to a different viewpoint. That's aimed at Gaschat I guess? Effectively on here it's only me (right wing and proud) and JeffNZ (left of centre) and Cheshire (a bit further left of centre). Anyway. Solution to the Stonehenge vandalism - Police with big sticks and crack heads. Not actually fracture skulls, but you get the gist. Big stick = Attitude Adjuster.

The JSO say it's "corn flour" ,not paint and will wash away with the rain Shame we can't wash these Posh vandals away with the rain. I don't care what they used. Convict them and fine them a hefty amount. If they have to sell their houses to pay for it, so be it. Take all their assets.

The truth is that when people 'donate' they usually expect something in return. Officially that's not the way it should work, but it does. Maybe he sees that a future Labour government can 'do something for him'? Shock horror The Labour Party ditches it's stupid class warfare and recognises to distribute wealth you have to create it. Hello... Than eff for that Oldie, you come across as someone who is so afraid of any alternatives, yet so blind to their chosen one.

Go girls Ipsos publishes its first MRP (multiple regression and post stratification) model of the 2024 General Election. This Ipsos MRP projection uses a large-scale online survey of nearly 20,000 participants on the Ipsos KnowledgePanel, and population data at a constituency level, to project which party will win individual seats at the upcoming General Election. The estimated seat counts, with upper and lower range estimates, are as follows: Labour 453 (with a range of 439 to 462 seats) Conservatives 115 (with a range of 99 to 123 seats) Liberal Democrats 38 (with a range of 35 to 48 seats) SNP 15 (with a range of 13 to 23 seats) Plaid Cymru 4 (with a range of 2 to 5 seats) Reform UK 3 (with range of 3 to 10 seats) Green Party 3 (with a range of 0 to 4 seats) Gert Lush mind 😂😂😂😂 Why don't you tell us something new!

No. Once again you do not understand. I am not promoting increasing the tax take. I am just explaining to you how a Labour government will increase the tax take, but still claim not to increase the taxes. Oh right. I thought we were discussing Reform policies. In any event is that a correct characterisation of the tax policy? The current thresholds have been set and frozen by the Tories. As far as I am aware Labour have not gone to Parliament with their Budget for approval. I am aware that what they will inherit is a mess so their room for manoeuvre will be constrained. I think against that backdrop they are being very "conservative" with their statements. Unlike Reform, who will say anything to satisfy the baying hyenas. You takes your choices Tories and Labour are two cheeks of the same arse. Both of them are being dishonest and not telling the truth. What annoys me is that both of them are spending their time trying to work out how to take more in tax, without people being aware until it's too late. They should be spending that effort on reducing government waste and spending what they already receive more wisely. We are seeing same old ways of working, the same old policies, with the same old outcome. Things need to change. Can Reform bring that change? Nobody knows but they are the only Party who are attempting to change the way the country is governed. Everyone has had enough of the stale Labour and Tory parties.
