Loving the Boris failure. Having him progress would have been absurd.
Glad Rishi is in, whatever the politics, it is a very significant moment for a community who - let's be honest - contribute a huge amount to this country.
The fact he is about to be appointed makes a very large, and very clear, positive statement about our society which the wider world will notice.
Also, the fact the gammons are discovering previously unexplored depths of the colour red is an added bonus.
If he had won a GE then i'd agree, but he didn't. He couldn't even get the support from his own party members. Glad Rishi is in, whatever the politics, it is a very significant moment for a community who - let's be honest - contribute a huge amount to this country.

His first address was absolutely superb, an absolute masterclass in reading off a teleprompter in a robotic manner
Perhaps it was due to the news outlet I watched it on, but he didn't appear to be looking at the camera?. that was a bit strange but again could just be because I saw the brief clip on youtube. At least his family background shows what can be achieved, with some intelligence and hard work, Marrying a billionaire's daughter can't have dented his progress in life, but to being in the right place, at the right time, can only have come from his, and his families intelligence and hard work.

The only racism I've seen is from those on the left who don't consider him to be a "real" Asian.

Starmer will have a field day reminding all & sundry about the out of touch, millionaire, ex banker PM on a weekly basis.
Starmer is also a millionaire; it would be a bit hypocritical.MrJuice said:
I think he's an awful choice
At school he was videoed saying he knows no working class folk. Recently as a few months back he's saying he's going to take money from deprived inner cities and give it to Tunbridge Wells
He has got no idea what it feels like to be thoroughly skint and just cannot relate. He gives me very little to zero confidence he will help those who need help most
Why do you have to have experienced something (like poverty) to be able to understand peoples’ problems?At school he was videoed saying he knows no working class folk. Recently as a few months back he's saying he's going to take money from deprived inner cities and give it to Tunbridge Wells

Do you need to chop a leg off to understand the challenges of disabled people?
Do you need to offer up to be assaulted?
Do you need to have had time working in the NHS?
What about being in the forces too?
See how ridiculous that argument is?

tsAlastair Campbell said he had joined some of the pro-Boris whatsapp groups over the weekend and raised concern about racism on those also. I am not sure deflecting this issue to the left is entire fair.

I like AC and the podcast but I'm sceptical of some of the things he says, he's (understandably) using the podcast to promote labour and negative on the Torries, he's very biased.Quite how he joined (or was invited to join) such groups I'm very doubtful.
However I'm not doubting the potential for such content.
