Still a person that enriched himself and ignored the people, made promises time and again and never lifted a finger to fulfil those promises and many times he had more than enough opportunity, his party is full of criminals corrupt and they should be investigated and imprisoned. Sadly, labour really is very similar, but hopefully reform will keep them a bit more honest. Farage has a way of getting under their skins and making them say things they really should not admit to. Labour really has only 4 years to resolve a lot of issues and if they don't we will definitely see reform take over and hopefully fix what labour and cons allowed to happen. 4Years is more than enough time to fix the illegal immigration problem and to get rid of those in the UK that are here illegally.

Don’t be too surprised, Sunak and Sir Kier’s behaviour is highly characteristic of the British public generally, they lose graciously and with honour. They are generally a very intelligent, well-educated society where the 6th January insurrection would be virtually impossible there, but know full well how to vote tactically within in their 500 year-old parliamentary democracy to remove an almost universally hated Conservative Party that fully started with the removal of an absolute monarch, Charles I, who refused to recognise the sovereignty of parliament. The British people told the Conservatives to go on Thursday, 4th July, and by Friday, 5th July the new government was installed and their first cabinet meeting held with the newly elected ministers - no ifs, no buts. With regard to our US system elections are not about the past they’re about the future - whether Biden is a reliable pair of hands for the future and he MUST take note of this. The US Supreme Court has created a President-King in Donald Trump who will make use of every advantage that gives. If Donald Trump wins in November the US will return to an English 14th Century absolute monarchy. Project 2025 is next year, when all of the US’s constitutional freedoms will be abolished all backed up by a corrupt US Supreme Court, which has become Trump’s 21st century fiefdom. As much as I admire Joe Biden, if there’s any chance he can’t stop Trump and save the American people and the world for the good of the nation, he must step aside. If President Biden can win then, of course, soldier on but remember in this election the risks are off the scale. America has NEVER been more at risk.

Seventy years of historic, long-standing, racial slurs, for minority groups, resident in the UK. My father was subject to these racial slurs as a fourteen year old child, working night-shift patterns, (on minimum wage), in the mills, and bakeries, of Bradford, West-Yorkshire, and suffered far worse racial abuse, before he eventually retired, having worked full-time, (for a minimum of sixty years) in the same profession. Thankfully, it is the kind Grace of God, which allows us all to remember, that we each have value, and each have meaning. 💮💮💮💮💮💮

Afterall the missioneries had the last laugh. His resistance to convert brought him down. Religious fanatics always targetted him because of his indian origin background and he never broke down before the pressure to convert.
