The Poolie Bunker

The States ahead of King Charles visit mistakenly put up Australian flags on 17th Avenue thinking because they had the Union Jack on them they were the British flags. I wonder if there will be an open press conferences in the White House as normal with guests ?

Whilst I am not a royalist is it right the king should still be going to the States after the Trump shooting, even before that he should not be going after Trump was slagging the UK troops off in Afghanistan and now saying we should give the Falklands back to Argentina.

I'm sure The King ,Mr President and the Great British public will all agree on one thing,Jamie....Starmers finished!.Don't let him talk to anyone.Don't let anyone from the EU shaft us,How long has he got now? Which idiot will replace him?

Why bring Starmer into the topic Sussex, intially the topic was about the wrong flags and now the Kings visit to the USA, Starmer was never mentioned.

I'm all for our man Farage helping the King off the plane if it takes place,Jamie!!! hth

You ex pats wont find easy getting back either when we get rid of him ,there'll be tougher controls...You'll just have to join the queue..

Starmer acts like a man who has been cosseted his entire ‘working’ life in an atmosphere of being w its a group who all share the same views on everything….he’s trued to sell himself as one of the lads with repetitive references to a past that seems scripted …and failed miserably with the general public….. his attempt is over, but he can’t accept it…the only thing keeping him on life support is the appallingly poor quality of any successor….a bit like finding out the pilot of the plane is blind at 40, 000 feet and the passengers are prepared to give flying a try because they saw it on the telly.
He is irrelevant…just keeping the seat warm.

No way should Camilla get the title of the Queen.

An absolute insult to Lizzy.

Can you name any of Reforms policy, here is one for you, they have give up on immigration, Tice has said Reform will stop in work benefits. Just under 3 million people are on in work benefits, they don’t earn enough to support themselves, ask for a pay rise ?

Illegal immigration up in the last 2 years, unemployment up in the last 2 years, number of businesses failing up in the last 2 years, number in work but claiming benefits up in the last 2 years, and Jamie wants everyone to focus on a minority party's policies, you've got to laugh!

If KC attempts to excuse Starmer's pathetic performance and actions as PM, or justify his continuation in the role Trump will likely kick him out thus further damaging US/UK relations.

its him who tries his best to stick up for the leader of a minority party.

So vote tomorrow to decide wether to refer Starmer to a parliamentary investigation. Starmer says he's innocent, score why are they whipping Labour MPs to vote no, why not let the investigation clear him?

I put my life on it, his own MPs are ot going to vote him down, they realise there is no one to step into his shoes.

Give me a link to say illegal immigration has increased, I am still waiting for you to outline Reforms policies and how they are going to finance them, you are a typical Mail, Express reader and focused on watching GB News.

Maybe you need to refresh your mind on what Reform UK policies are,Jamie..Have you ever been on the'Our Policies' section? ...Please take a look and tell me what you disagree with.


I have this certain confidence in Mr Farage on the World Stage,Jamie...Him and Donnie will reboot their friendship,get together and kick that failing EU's arse!!.
3 million what?grifters,genuines,illegal welfare scroungers?


Don't worry..Nigel's all for common sense,listening to the hard working British people,and what's best for them!!..And Rule Brittania !!

But why, if he's innocent isn't he either referring himself to clear his name, or allowing a free vote. He's pretty much saying "I'm guilty but you can't prove it".
Burnham will be on manoeuvres and Starmer will announce a standing down date to allow Burnham to win a seat, if there's such a thing as a safe Labour seat anymore that is.
Didn't think the sleaze of Boris's government could be outdone but they're giving it their best shot aren't they?

Yes we want rid of Starmer, but no one has come up with an alternative, forget Burnham as he isn’t an MP.

I've never been a champion or out and out supporter of Farage and Reform and I'm not interested in what their policies today really are because there's no election coming up where I am. I am interested in the dogs bollix that the present government are making of things though. Small boat arrivals, or illegal immigrants arrivals are rising monthly on month according to the governments own figures - 1 in / 1 out doesn't seem to be quite working, nor does smashing the gangs, etc.
The country is going to rat shit and if you can't see that it's Labours incompetence and sleaze that's making it so easy for The Greens and Reform, in the same way the Tory's made it easy for Labour, then you really need to broaden your You Tube horizon.

Yeh Donnie has caused the biggest world economic crash in years, you will be paying for it, now he also forgot the Iranians don’t run about in flip flops anymore. There are numerous telecommunication cables running through the Hormuz Straits if cut would collapse the economy of the Arab States.
I am waiting for you to list the proposed manifesto of Reform and how they are going to support the 3 million currently on in work benefits, tbh you haven’t a clue Sussex or just baiting.

Lets not leave out the airy-fairy politics of the lets all live in a gold fish bowl Lib dems eh..

We'll see what Reform are like when they've got control of most of the Councils up for grabs in a couple of weeks time won't we?
To be fair they've got control of Durham but feck all seems to have changed.

What Reform or any other party has to say is of no interest to me. Sorry.
I judge Party’s on what they actually do.

Who's baiting who?...You're beginning to sound like Baghdad bob and Comical Ali every day...Which sources do yet your figures from??Have you ever answered a direct question on here ??.

Quote me a question I have never answered on here, one thing for sure I don’t get my answers from the right newspapers or GB News.
I am still waiting for what Reforms main policies are, not all of them but at least a couple, you can’t because you don’t know any of them.

would not discount sadiq khan getting involved if he thinks being pm gives him more power than mayor of london.

You must have asked the same question a 100 times now,Alexa..

Good pay rises for workers.
Tax free State Pension
Crack down on lazy fuckas and Boaties.

Thats good enough for normal English people.

UTR.
And the peoples champion channel GB News.

Triple Lock honoured..

Jamie I can see you being converted to the good side.

Give it time eh!

He'll ignore the lot and ask the same in question in a week's time. It's nailed on.

I agree. In these days of sexual equality shouldn't she be the Duchess of Wherever like the late Queen's husband was the Duke of Edinburgh?

Now you are talking sh***, Reforms initial policy of no tax on earnings of less than £20000 was blown out the water as it was unfundable . Ha ha, you been reading The Beano again, no tax on the pension, the younger generation are going to love that, vote loser albeit not true. BTW Reform did say they would keep the Triple Lock, most of their funding comes from cutting benefits, another vote loser. 8 million people are on working age benefits those are the benefits Reform are going to cut so potentially 8 million lost votes, no one is going to vote for a wage cut.

Yeah Reform are going to get totally anhiallated at these forthcoming local elections whereas Labour are going to do outstandingly well having delivered entirely on their manifesto and pre GE promises aren't they?

Is it 3 million or 8 million on works benefits,Jamie.? I'm getting a bit confused,sorry.

Jamie :
Benefits ain't Wages kid.

I read in Australia they means tested the State Pension.

So people with decent savings just stopped working earlier resulting in less taxes for the government.

Good Philosophy.

And before he says otherwise Farage is paying for his own security. after a good friend ,concerned for his safety,stumped up £5 million. What a lovely gesture!!!

Reeves had taken away the WFA, she'll be taxing pensioners more again in April next year, and she's done her utmost to try to control where pension funds are invested, Labour see pensioners and their funds as nothing more than a cash cow. Look at the damage Brown did to pension funds. Meanwhile Starmer's pension fund is protected entirely from tax and MPs and civil servants have their gold plated public sector pensions.

It is similar to what Reeves did to employers NI.....result they stopped employing people.

Why does he require private security, no other party leader does it, if he is so popular why does he have to surround himself with security ? No idea and not interested but then again he is a multi millionaire raking in over £30000 a month from GB News and earned over £374,000 via the personalized video platform Cameo, charging around £78-£87 for clips before pausing his account in March 2026 due to controversies, including recording messages for individuals with far-right views and repeating controversial slogans, remember his comment up the RA ?
Yet the right wing MSM slag Starmer over a few pairs of specs and a free footy ticket.

I have mentioned this many times, pensions are means tested in Australia and it takes into account the value of your property, just think how many people would lose their State Pension if they did that here ?

At the last local elections they said they were going to freeze Council Tax, remind me how many did ?

To make it simple for you Sussex, you obviously have no idea how to research on the internet but instead watch read and watch your right wing MSM and believe everything they write or say.
As of early 2024, approximately 6.3 million people in Great Britain were in receipt of Universal Credit (UC), with roughly 38% of those claimants (over 2.3 million) in work. Overall, over 9 million working-age people receive some form of DWP benefit.
Key details on in-work benefits:
Universal Credit (UC): As of January 2024, 6.3 million people claimed UC, with 38% of them working.
In-Work Claimants: The proportion of UC claimants who are in work has stayed consistent, around 38%.
Total Working-Age Beneficiaries: Over 9 million people of working age receive some form of DWP benefit, including non-working beneficiaries.
Health-Related Claims: 4.2 million working-age people claim health-related benefits.
Other Benefits: Many people also receive separate benefits such as Carer's Allowance, Disability Living Allowance, or Pension Credit

All politicians lie, it's in their DNA. Remind me who wasn't going to put up taxes for working people? Who was going to smash the gangs? Who was going to support the Waspi women? etc etc....
Oh, and if course Starmer didn't mislead parliament.
What was Lee Anderson thrown out of the chamber for saying, " Starmer couldn't lie straight in bed".

Starmer couldn’t lie straight in bed what about Johnson, he lied to the Queen.
You must have missed this one where Anderson was setting up a fake door knock calling his mate up first
https://youtu.be/OXf1qkjFUj0?si=30SS1eiaaKnIxH9H

No I didn't miss anything, but you're missing the point - ALL politicians lie! And it's worse when the biggest liars are in power. And Johnson didn't whip his MPs to cover up his lies did he, he allowed the Standards Investigation to go ahead.

Well 15 Labour MPs voted against Starmer, what will he do with them, interesting to note Brash said he would have rebelled, we will never know as he wasn’t in Parliament due to a prior engagement in the N.E.

well going off the leaflet we got from them the other day they have 5 points on it. tackle the cost of living. stop illegal immigration, cut energy bills by scrapping net zero, end lawlessness on the streets, put british people first. fact is at least 3 of them should be taken for granted and not need a party to change things.

All well and good but no suggestions of how they are going to stop it all,

Pretty much the same as Lame Duck Starmer then, all talk and nothing to back it up. You do realise Labour are the government at the moment, they won a GE nearly 2 years ago on a manifesto of empty promises, has the news not reached Siam yet?

at least reform realise there are big problems that need solving. doubt labour do with there DEI and how good all immigration has boosted our lives.
