Politics - The Non-Brexit Thread.

Why is Chris 'Ailing' Grayling still in government as Transport Secretary? What exactly has he achieved apart from pissing off rail passengers, airline passengers and train drivers. He is utterly useless and needs to go NOW!

^I think Chris Grayling is only a cabinet minister because even though he is fucking useless he is a Brexiteer (where the Government try to balance cabinet roles between leavers & remainers) that toes the party line & doesn't rebel.

Regarding the disgraced MP Fiona Onasanya & her 3 & 1/2 month stint doing porridge (she'll be out in 4-6 weeks with good behaviour) she refuses to stand down as MP (despite Labour & Tories calling her to resign) because she claims her role as MP is her only source of income despite being a fully trained solicitor (obviously not a very good one at that).Parliamentary rules state that whilst in prison Onasanya is fully entitled to keep being paid her salary as well as being able to claim expenses.And so despite committing a crime,being locked away for it MP's can still continue riding on the gravy train.

Speaking of incompetent Cabinet Minsters/MP's Home Secretary Sajid Javid's grand plan to cut knife crime is to introduce Knife ASBO's by stopping the perpetrator from accessing/using the internet & how does it get policed exactly?.Some MP's deserve lifetime ASBO's from entering parliament.

Joram van Klaveren, former member (& right hand man) to Geert Wilders' People's Party for Freedom and Democracy, who said that "Islam is a disease" and "The Quran is poison" and advocated for banning burqas and minarets has announced in an interview that after doing research into an anti-Islam book he has now converted to Islam and accepts Muhammed as the prophet.

He said in an interview that the work "became a refutation of objections non-Muslims have" and "If everything I wrote up to that point is true, and I believe that, then I am a de facto Muslim," he then converted in October 2018. He continued "has been searching for a long time." and that "It feels a bit like a religious homecoming for me,"

Critics from the far right say it is a stunt for his new upcoming book Apostate: From Christianity to Islam in the Time of Secular Terror, whilst it does seem very extreme it is no less extreme that the countless advocates for Gay conversion therapy or criminalising homosexuality that have come out as gay. van Klaveren is not the first high profile People's Party for Freedom and Democracy member to convert, former city councillor Arnoud van Doorn converted to Islam in 2013, funnily enough he was researching his own anti-Islam book at the time and former senior member of anti-Islamic German party Alternative for Deutschland also converted to Islam in 2018.

Even if the conversion itself was a stunt he still scrapped his anti-Islam book for another that advocates it. It just goes to show that ignorance is the root of bigotry and if you actually educate yourself you might come up with a different view.

Over to you Tommy

See a certain Christopher Chope has found he can be even more cunty than stopping the Upskirting Bill the cunt now stopped a Child FGM ammendment going thru protecting kids from having there genitals mutilated

What a fucking Cunt !!

Yeah, I was reading about the bastard earlier and a little about the bill. He claims that he objects because these members bills aren't debated thoroughly, but when they move forward, they go through stages, including being debated. Seems he doesn't have as many objections when his chums are putting things forward. People like him need to take a long look at themselves, sure, within the law protections already exist, but the bill is to highlight this specific horrific problem, adding weight to those existing protections and shining a light on it. Is it a surprise that he's an ignorant Tory, oh and has been knighted too, scum.

I see Labour are still arguing internally about how they are dealing with anti-semitism. Claims that the General Secretary made in a report earlier this week are being disputed particularly where she claimed data was not available from before she took her position and effectively blamed her predecessor for not having recording and reporting systems in place (which he has denied).

The Parliamentary Labour Party has called for more information and want the General Secrtary and Corbyn to turn up and discuss it (they failed to appear at a meeting on Monday).

I see that on the day 7 Labour MP’s resign from the party the news comes out that Derek Hatton has been readmitted as a Labour Party Member. Sums up the state of the Labour Party.
