Left voices, unfiltered, unedited, Ungagged.
Every waking day (and not all of them ARE at my age and in my health) its another fucking thing, and I’m always ready for a murder, sex scandal, thieving tory, gagged and bound sex slave MP or insanity of some sort. Some days it can be, “Look over there… the Right Honourable is fucking […]
Voters for Forbes or Regan were aware that GRR would be kicked into the long grass, serving as precedent for a power grab at any piece of legislation deemed unpopular I never found it particularly difficult to understand why the Red Wall had fallen to the Tories in 2019. We’ve been living under the […]
As for the grass roots, we pull out the tough old weeds and start again. Pick up our movement from where it left off.
