I'm incredulous about your double standards.
I know it’s been done on a different thread, however as you bring it up, it is a FACT that Sunak decided not to stay on for the DDay commemoration. That decision did significant damage to him politically amongst the vast majority of British people who have a connection to that period of this country’s history. It didn’t lose him an election on its own, but it was his “bigoted woman” moment.
It is equally true that the younger generation, and check out the age of his chief of staff by way of example, are not connected to the types of commemorative events, like DDay, as their forebears. Equally true, is they fact that millions of new arrivals to this country in last 50 years will not have the same connection to this country’s history, including WW2.
Sunak’s political “instinct” is generated from his experience as being a child of the 80s, a first generation immigrant of parents with Indian heritage and from his advisors, who themselves were children of the 80s. This particular combination of instincts evidently concluded that the 80th anniversary of DDay was not important. Ergo he left early.
This lack of connection by Sunak to commemorations like DDay is not and shouldn’t be a surprise, there are millions of people in the country young and new that feel the same way, and didn’t see it as an issue. No doubt, at the time, there were many who agreed with Gordon’s Brown response and didn’t see it as damaging. Farage in recognising that position, with his instinct (personal and political) has a right to express it.
If he was going to be a shithouse he would have referenced the influence Sunak’s Grandad would have had on the family.
Rishi Sunak’s grandfather was part of banned RSS, reveals report
Political observers say Ramdas's links to the RSS are likely to be embarrassing for the PMsearch.app
Arrogant prick. I've stated why there's a difference and you ignore it just to trot out the same rubbish. Discussion about a story in the press is not the same as publishing that story in the first place.
Your sums assume that they fall short, and actually lose that deposit, in each case.
Correct, I missed that out, apols. 5% being the threshold that gets your deposit back.
Precisely. The implication is that it is understood that Sunak isn't properly British. Farage is criticizing him for not making an effort to be more like the British and how they behave. You can only do that if your basic premise (which you present as an accepted fact) is that Sunak isn't British.
That’s uncalled for.
Sort yourself out, son. A conniption fit is never a good look
I don't think it is. If someone presents an argument in good faith, as I believe you've just done, I'll respond in good faith.That’s uncalled for.
All that is being pointed out is that you felt comfortable constructing a narrative based on a lack of or in the absence of evidence and posted it on an internet forum yet you criticise Bylines for doing the same thing.
Can you not see the inherent contradiction in holding that position?
There is no difference in the process by which you come to form a “probable” conclusion than the process you accuse Bylines of using.
It doesn’t make any difference in essence whether you post a false narrative in the capacity of the press or post false narratives online in the capacity of an individual, we all have a duty to tell the truth (and are all subject to the laws of libel and defamation) - fact-checking and adherence to what is objectively considered to be a rational and logical thought process is part of that.
I agree though, that would be holding you to a higher ethical standard than 95% of other online users.
Brilliant post.
I can attest that the Nazis in 1930s / 40s Germany were the world leaders for keeping "lists of people". I have seen some with my very own eyes.
