You really can't help yourself can you?The turnout was 16% of eligible voters, which isn’t the same as the membership.
People in affiliated unions, socialist societies, all manner of left wing crackpots can vote in leadership contests as long as they pledge loyalty to the dear leader when they cast their vote.
Actual membership is around 330,000, down massively since honest Keith took over. So more than half of the membership couldn’t be arsed voting.
None of the above is who I’d be voting for.
Reminds me of Swindon away in the bad old days (of lower league football) ..............we had both ends.Blues are everyfuckinwhere....
You seem to be full of ideas. What's your solution to people "coming in"?Whoever the government is should have stopped him coming in, in the first place.
Everything to do with every government not just this one, the release of prisoners goes right up to the prison governor who signed off on the release, several stages of staff sign the documents.I don’t see what it has to do with the government
The days of a ball and chain are long gone I don’t think we even tagged this discharged prisoner, the service has been privatised in part. so I don’t think the discipline is there.I know prisons and the judicial system are designed to be centered around rehabilitation and public safety but over time i've become convinced I would rather see a more punitive one. Don't think any party will offer one, but personally I find the whole thing leaves a sour taste.
Not necessarily related to one particular incident but a series over the years have made me change my mind.
I was wondering where to post this, but it seems like it's being discussed in here more than elsewhere. Hopefully, he will be locked up again soon if he continues like this.

Wearing the uniform of all the lazy bastards you see walking the streets who find zipping and buttoning trousers hard work , he blends in perfectly.
I still don’t see your point.You'd said "enquiries don’t work in this country aside from politicians not implementing the changes they suggest"
Labour said that there'd been an inquiry (Jay) and they were implementing its recommendations (whereas Johnson had called it spaffing millions up the wall, and Truss and Sunak - and Badenoch as minister for women - had done nothing).

A new inquiry into child sexual exploitation isn't needed – but government action is | Institute for Government
There should not be a new inquiry into child sexual exploitation.www.instituteforgovernment.org.uk
Labour instead got Baroness Casey to review what had been done and what more needed to be done - presumably not expecting her to say there should be another national inquiry (thus proving her independence). People have then gone mad over what she actually recommended ("keep it focussed", "make it wider", "ignore white grooming gangs", "include non-gang CSE - i.e. within families") and the whole issue is now a "political football" ("We won" - Badenoch) - indeed some survivors being used thus.
So I'm suggesting that Labour's approach (pre-Casey) had been right - no "national" inquiry but do more local inquiries like Telford. https://www.telford.gov.uk/children...nto-telford-child-sexual-exploitation-iitcse/
So staff made and mistake and this is the governments fault because ?Everything to do with every government not just this one, the release of prisoners goes right up to the prison governor who signed off on the release, several stages of staff sign the documents.
The crisis is down to not enough staff loss of staff because of violence and who wants to do a job like that for the the money the staff earn
The lad was stood outside for one and a half hours he didn’t know where to go. He’s still making his way to the detention centre:)
This was first reported in 2022. Oh, and it was total aid of £112m to India and Pakistan of which £12m was for contraception. So not this government at all but our old mate Boris.£111m given to Pakistan for family planning! Just sums this government up!!!

It's not been a good foray for you into the politics forum has it?
