INTERNATIONAL LAW. Why does the ECHR apply to to people coming across in dingys and not apply to UK citizens

[@elvisb1093]

What a shame all these MP walking out before the Grenfell statement. Disgraceful!

[@metamagic.]

At 34 minutes Kier Starmer refers to Rishi Sunak as "the primeminister" followed by the speaker of the house also referring to Rishi Sunak as "the primeminister" 😂

[@gamania122]

The official PMQ does not have its comments enabled, why?

[@MrVidification]

you would likely end up with the police at your door for comitting an offence

I have state pension 884 per month 221 per week I'm not entitled to pension credit because I'm £3 pounds over the amount they say you can have but people on pension credits get free rent free council tax free dental so how does that work out as being fair makes no sense because that makes them on pension much more than them on normal pension so were I live rents are £98 per week Council tax £35 per week so if you get pension credits you are much better of than being on state pension make it make sense

[@stephenhuggan5151]

Good old Britain, it only punishes them that try to do better and rewards those who do the least, it's all been the same and will always continue to be the same.

[@waynegazard5038]

Explain how women could retire 5 years earlier than men but excepted fact women live longer,increased ages for retirement cutting manys people's plans of retirement no system has ever been perfect ,unfortunately a lot of young people would be envious of 221 a week

[@samcad-ho3ze]

They like to punish the working man, that’s why.

[@iristhompson1871]

@@waynegazard5038 my husband passed away at 63 worked from leaving school paid his national insurance and tax to get nothing, from January 38 people have passed away none of them got to retirement age so how they can say people are living longer is way beyond me

What's the point when no party ever answers a question directly

[@jonnobloggs8642]

The only thing I regret about Blair's 3 victories was the fact that there was no social media around at the time .I would love to have read the insipid whinging from tories at the time about the minimum wage introduction. It would have been almost as equally enjoyable as the meltdown from whining rightie bedwetters on this comments page who simply cannot stomach the pasting labour gave their party 2 months ago .

[@RomanMyshkin]

What about Keir Starmer giving Jacqui Smith a peerage after she sent a memo to Police forces in the North of England during her time as Home Secretary in the last Labour government saying that victims of grooming gangs had "made an informed choice" so it's "not for you police to get involved with". Is this something right-wingers shouldn't be melting down and are just too thick to understand why covering up mass child rape is a positive for Labour lefties?

[@GalG453]

This is not questions I would expect to hear on the question time

[@samcad-ho3ze]

I was starting to feel sorry for wee Rishi there getting his arse handed to him on a China plate then i remember the 137 billion pounds it cost to bale out him and his banking pal in 2008 now he's left the country in the shite again i heard he's off to the states soon

[@captainjames4649]

Just all sit on one side and stop the circus. Nobdy buying it. Them days are gone.

Rachel Taylor, our new MP, asks how Scotland will honour Andy Murray! Well done Taylor...totally irrelevant to North Warwickshire but got your face on TV. Serial publicity seeker. Still standing by pensioners as you said in your pre budget video?

[@C1CRN-u4e]

Starmer will be out in no time.

[@snowyowel7961]

Awful prime minister i will be so glad to see the back of the labour party. Get rid of 👉 🤓

[@GRUMPY0254]

Starmer is an unmitigated liar.

[@gav_Azato]

We will own nothing and we will be happy, Starmers orders from his WEF masters

[@MrWb-se6yb]

wow what a performance by sir keir starmer , not a single mention of the 22 billion black hole , just a guy taking responsibility , what a true british patriot

[@snowyowel7961]

He did mention 22 billion black hole, and he just forgot to mention the unprecedented pandemic Afghanistan evacuation climate change war in Ukraine.

[@Siegfried_DDT]

My father was a tool maker , black hole , tool maker , black hole etc etc

[@kevintutchener3394]

Dead man walking already.

[@kevintutchener3394]

Chairman Starmer and his deputy ..Princess Chav have already hit the people who voted for them. Labour are like a new football manager who takes over and loses their first 6 games...they will be gone before the end of their 5 year contract!

[@rossturner8581]

Wow, Starmer nearly had me reaching for the tissues with his speech on Grenfell! He's obviously just trying to gaslight everyone into thinking he's a nice compassionate guy now his ratings have dropped off a cliff! All very predicable and everyone can see through, the same old rhetoric from Starmer!

How many pensioners are regretting voting labour ????

[@jonnobloggs8642]

Definitely not the king .He has been given a huge pay rise although I don't hear too many right wingers complaining about this .

[@waynegazard5038]

How many pensioners aren't or too worried about losing winter fuel allowance ,but a lot more do hold tories responsible for wrecking economy and not paying triple lock down to rampant inflation caused by them.
