Um probably not no...there isn’t even any particularly compelling evidence that Jesus existed. There is even less evidence he was executed, or the reasons why.. 

Well that's a divergent argument. I'm not going into.

why didn't he just do it straight away, everyone knew he was going to cave in, he might have just as well got it out of the way,  he's the weakest leader we have had for decades, and that includes Maybot

Just reading the article below where it says:

The head of Boris Johnson's vaccine taskforce has billed the taxpayer £670,000 for a team of boutique PR consultants to oversee her media strategy. 

Kate Bingham, 55, has already spent £500,000 on eight full-time consultants from Admiral Associates - with the team contracted until the end of the year. 

The costs involved mean that each consultant is on the equivalent of a £167,000 a year salary, according to leaked documents. 

It is understood that the team help Ms Bingham to draft statements and prepare for media appearances. 

 

This virus has been a good excuse for allowing the Tories to look after their friends with taxpayers money, what a surprise to see that Kate Bingham is married to a cabinet minister, Jesse Norman. Isn't it marvellous along comes the virus and the Government have found plenty of money to give to their friends for contracts that have not been put out to tender.

Surely is shows weaker leadership to stick to your guns even when it’s clear the mood of the country is against you, than to admit you were wrong and go above and beyond what was asked for..?

Thanks for highlighting this :thumbsup:

In the middle of the celebrations of Joe Biden winning, many people will have not noticed.

Yes, all credit to the Tories who have proven themselves to have green fingers when it comes to growing those 'magic money trees'.

Even if they are blooming in the back gardens of wives of Tory MPs, donors etc.

Wonder if Mr Rashford will be as forthcoming in tackling another aspect of parents struggling to put food on the table, by backing Manchester food banks' calls to have employers pay the 'living wage' rate? 

 

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/amp/uk-england-manchester-54847859

 

This includes a call his employer, Manchester United to do the right thing.  Wonder if he'll be throwing his weight behind this campaign from the local food banks because surely if he doesn't, wouldn't it be a might hypocritical not to demand a higher rate of pay for his fellow employees, so they can feed their children?

No problem M. It seems Manchester United have a young centre forward who’s a better politician than our Prime Minister.

Boris is labelled a shapeshifting creep...i cant really argue with that.

Former Obama press aide Tommy Vietor responded to Johnson’s congratulatory message last night by calling him a “shapeshifting creep”, adding: “We will never forget your racist comments about Obama and slavish devotion to Trump.”

Rashford will probably be campaigning behind the scene on this issue; and it doesn't have the same traction as his FSM campaign did.

I think Rashford's campaign really caught the public mood. but sadly there is only so much 1 individual can do.

Oh dear... That doesn't bode well for our future relationship does it?

Why, a podcaster voices an opinion on a political person in a different country? Got jack all to do with the current president elect, just looking for media attention
