Labour town hall ignoring warnings about grooming gangs

[JohnD]

You seem well up on it. What have they done so far and what do they still have to do?

1) More than the Tories

2) Less than the Tories.

Not difficult.

Your wishful thinking doesn’t count. Nice to see you have me off of your ignore list - am I still on your question ignore list?

They've already started.

Badenough and her buddies tried to stall the bill with a wrecking amendment, but were outvoted.

And i have to say i agree with you JohnD nothing but meddling for the sake of opposing, i hated it when 2Tier Kier and the others did it when they were 'opposing' also, anything like this should be scrutinised as 'genuine' and in the interest of the victims/groups involved over political point scoring. Its embarrasingly transparent.

Holding to their previous position it seems

I used to think she was a stand out MP when it came to campaiging for women and girls but I changed my mind on her some time ago now, long before the spat between her and Musk. When she added the name of a murdered male to the femicide list and read the list out in Parliament... I realised she was a wrong un.

Name doesn't help. Serious politician? Jess?

Trivial point, I know.

Trivial point, I know.

Has devoted her career to protection and rescue of abused women and girls

You think that's not a serious issue?

Unlike Buffoon Johnson, she did not have a privileged life basking at Eton and Oxford.

Serious politician?

Like Postman Pat's cat?

I don't think she is genuine any longer. I think she was once but there's been too many anomalies in her conduct with regards to her support for women and girls, which is what she specialises in and what she prides herself in. I listened to an interview with her and she felt sorry for men who couldn't have periods. I'm sorry, but seriously?

Not you.

Not you.

Well, I think you have to be firm on what a woman is if you're going to throw your weight behind them and Jess just isn't.

You think it's OK for Transam to be abused?

Why?

You think a name prevents a politician being serious?

You are barmy.

 

[Sunshine32]

You've lost me John. It's too late or rather too early for online fisticuffs imho.

Speaking about abuse

I was an indirect victim of abuse years ago

Dentist I used to go to got arrested / jailed and struck off for assaulting ?? Woman patients ??

Dunno the details ? But the point is I became a victim because I had to find another dentist and considerable finacial cost to me

Afaik he never assaulted me

No one apologised to me or offered me compensation

Not the first time I have been the innocent victim

I want Reform to keep going.

For many many years the U.K. has had a bunch of parties on the left and the centre but on the right the Tories have been the only party.

Come the next election Tories and Reform will be competing for the same voters…..wot a shame.

The only way Reform could win power is for Labour voters to switch to Reform….not many will do that.

Well I would not bet on it

(Labour voters not switching to reform )
