Genuine question. It's strange because, like anyone else, having grown up in Ipswich I know tonnes of people — from all walks of life and of most political persuasions — and I'm not sure I can name one who I know would be comfortable with the actions of the dangerous charlatan purportedly representing their interests. Will you stand for it? |  |

I was on the Pink 'Un forum a couple of weeks ago and I am often on the main Brighton site but when it comes to politics all football message-boards are the same; overwhelmingly left wing and unrepresentative of their fan-base.
I'm on here because I wanted to check how the feeling was before Sunday's match and unfortunately all posts came up rather than my preferred football only. I saw the ridiculous threads about racism and I couldn't help myself. I didn't even learn anything much about how you regarded your team's prospects because everyone was too busy trying to show they're more pc than the next man or woman.
You might be pleased to know I lost money as I thought you'd hammer the basket case that is now poor Wigan. |
"all football message-boards are the same; overwhelmingly left wing and unrepresentative".
Er, if they're all the same isn't that what's representative? |  |

Some people, myself included, think it is dangerous and wrong. I suspect the majority of constituents are not really interested in politics, and don't really care that much. I also suspect Dominic Cummings knows this and that's why whatever you may think of him, he is very good at his job, and why Johnson clung onto him for dear life. |  |

You lot should be very proud of your county. It's not just your football team that's blue, every single one of your parliamentary constituencies is too. We've had nothing but Labour since 1964 and unsurprisingly we've been in decline throughout that time.
I share your affection for the word quisling. It's proper use in 2020 of course is as a prefix to the word remoaner, to describe the sort of contemptible person who'd happily side with the corrupt, undemocratic EU as it tries to crush this great country of ours.
Thankfully Twitter is not representative of the great British public, which is why there are so many of those FBPE cranks on there. |
In decline?!? There has been a massive amount of EU investment in Sunderland! |  |

Cummings is good at three things...
1) Lying to idiots
2) Breaking the law
3) Avoiding the consequences of his actions
Beyond that, from the evidence we’ve seen, he’s pretty poor at actual governance. Hence why we are where we are.
Being good at a job and hard work are apparently what makes capitalism great according to those to promote it, do that and the your dreams will come true. However, we are beyond functioning capitalism right now and well into the disaster phase, where being morally inept to make enough money for a good team of lawyers is what really rises to the top.
Trump. Bezos. Zuck. Etc. |  |

Well quite, he’s good at manipulating people and playing the politics game but when it comes to effective governance and formulating policy he’s shown himself to be woefully incompetent.
Unfortunately Boris values the former far higher than the latter, even if people are literally dying because of it. | | | |

I'm quite appalled to be honest BUT he was always going to vote this way, he's a career politician (and xenophobe) who has backed BoJo on every decision to date, it was no surprise.
Further scrutiny and the House of Lords to go still though...
Interestingly, I took a look at his FB & Twitter pages and the difference is enormous. The FB page is simply sycophantic agreement (he does silence objectors) and "that'll learn those pesky lefty remainers" stuff whilst his twitter is completely opposite. I do love the word quisling and it's great to see it used properly on there. |
You can usually predict an election based on Twitter, as in it will always be the exact opposite result because the average person including myself views Twitter as absolutely laughable. |  |

As soon as he joined the ERG I feared the worst. He plumps new depths each week it seems. Totally embarrassed that he represents us. |
He's no councillor Ian 'Crusader' Fisher that's for sure. The mighty Crusader seems to have developed an admiration for misogynistic, Islamophobic racists of late, judging by his crush on Trump and the offensive garbage he was posting on Twitter around 9/11.
Ipswich sure has elected some stain-panted wrong 'uns in recent times. |  |

Make me MP for Ipswich and I’ll do everything in my taco costume.
I’d probably do a better job with zero experience because I actually value human life. That and by God I’d upset the Gammons. | |

I really don't class my work as a job anymore. More like "stuff I occasionally do a few times a week for money."
Freelance life.
Also; CAN WE CALL IT FASCISM YET?! | |

No. Going by the Lowhouse Scale of Facism either Johnson or Trump have to at least have the mustache before it's official. The funny haircuts aren't enough on their own. [Post edited 16 Sep 2020 0:05]

Even the batsh1t present landscape of the USA is calling us out.
I don’t know how the Tories can win this one TBH. They are banking on the US trade deal.
Although at this point I’m starting to wonder if the UK population has literally been convinced to commit genocide on themselves and the government can shout BUT THIS IS WHAT YOU WANTED for the benefit of a few hedge fund managers and money launderers.
I just can’t see how Brexit can go through without destroying all it touches. | |

I get your point - but I think it is much worse that a number of high profile MPs, some of which were ex NI ministers, legal eagles and caniinet ministers spoke out against the absurdity of Johnson's stance, then merely abstained.
To be fair the whole rotten cabal merely voted to pass the buck to the Lords and then have a second reading where their views would be listened to, honest they will. And like good Tories they believe everything Johnson said.
It was a pre-arranged stitch up designed to bring those Euro bullies to heal | |

I laughed when Tom Hunt wrote an article last week saying local residents should get priority for housing in Ipswich. If only they could have gotten priority for parliamentary selections as well, then he'd have been MP for somewhere in Cambridgeshire instead. |  |

The council have countered this too and advised that this is actually what they do anyway...
Interestingly too, a chap that I coach footy with, who runs his own shipping company and is a lifelong staunch tory plus Ipswich constituent BUT a remain voter has found himself blocked from posting on Tom's FB page. He spent a bit of time yesterday telling a few people what brexit means to his business - shipping goods in from Asia & Europe coupled with added complexities around Country of Origin paperwork requirements in regard to component shipping from the UK for Chinese manufacture, Mid-Europe finishing and then UK warehousing.
I read his messages and he was civilly making points as to how much this is costing him in advance of Brexit happening AND how he still doesn't know what 01/01/21 looks like logistic-wise whilst Barbara from The Rivers Estate told him to stop being unpatriotic...
He's actually quite put out about being blocked.

Problem is, when you are willing to break the law or scrap human rights on these matters, things can go fast to actual full scale Nazism.
Historian yesterday I saw on Twitter thinks the USA is at least in 1933 of the comparable timeline, I expect we’re not far behind. | |

Indeed. If he was really tough on all those things, he wouldn't be representing the party that has seen immigration go up, cut the border force to the bone and gutted police funding. | |
