BuzzJack Music Forum _ News and Politics _ Boris's reply to me....and no doubt many others
Posted by: Trump2020 30th August 2019, 03:55 PM
Boris asked us to tell him what we wanted and what we thought of him. Here's his reply to me.
'I asked what your priorities are – and you told me. So here’s what I’m doing.
Thank you for taking my survey. I received thousands of responses from people like you – and I want to get to work on the priorities we all share.
You said that one of your priorities is Brexit.
It’s mine too. That’s why I’ll deliver Brexit by the 31st of October – deal or no deal. Because politicians don’t get to decide which votes they respect.
Here is my full six-point plan.
By delivering Brexit, we can start making it work for us. And we’re not waiting around to take action on the priorities we all share.
Like investing in local NHS services.
Hiring 20,000 new police officers.
Improving our schools.
And growing our economy.
And don’t worry. My Conservative team and I will keep you updated on the action we’re taking. So you always know what’s going on.
But there’s more to do.
So why not ask a friend to tell me their priorities? Together, we’ll put Britain back on the road to a brighter future.
Forward this email to a friend, and tell them to let me know what they think.
Yours sincerely,
Boris Johnson,
Prime Minister

What a load of old SHITE

How heartfelt. You can really tell he meant every single word there, not one of it a cliche and not one of it written by his PR, bravo

So he’s just telling you what you want to hear then. My contact was right about him.

Nothing but hot air.
None of the bit that follows “deal or no deal” is possible with a no deal exit.

Give all your money away Boris, that's what I want you to do. And maybe stop shagging a woman your daughter's age while you're still married while you're at it.

I'm sorry, but you truly are a complete fool and you're beyond hope. 
Posted by: vidcapper 31st August 2019, 05:55 AM
Did you mean Boris Johnson, or me?
Posted by: Tawdry Hepburn 31st August 2019, 06:00 AM
Errrr, either.
I actually meant Chris (as in, the person who opened this thread). If I meant Boris, I probably would have said "he is", if I meant you I would have quoted you and said "you are".
Posted by: vidcapper 31st August 2019, 06:08 AM
I actually meant Chris (as in, the person who opened this thread).IMO That's a bit strong (iro me).
That's partly why I don't post that often here any more - few people here are capable of accepting/understanding my political stance.
Posted by: Tawdry Hepburn 31st August 2019, 06:14 AM
I actually meant "neither", that was a typo. Anyway, bottom line is it was aimed squarely at Chris so stop making it about you!
Posted by: Suedehead2 31st August 2019, 07:07 AM
That's partly why I don't post that often here any more - few people here are capable of accepting/understanding my political stance.
That’s because you never back up your arguments with facts. It’s all about gut feeling and any inconvenient facts just get ignored. We are still waiting for a single example of a law imposed on us by the EU against the will of the government of the day

You say as if that's bc its profound, rather than seeming to not be based in anything but what you want to believe anyway rather than any facts.
For what its worth I didn't always agree with the conservatives of the past but sometimes I could see where they were coming from. But today I see many, many people going along with a fantasy that's being sold to them by people looking to exploit. Boris, Farage, Mogg etc. are happily taking folk for a ride just by playing characters & paying people to sell a certain image of them. No better than when a rich popstar pretends to come from an ordinary background for the story. All they want is taxpayers money for themselves & supreme power, nothing good for the citizens of the country.
Posted by: vidcapper 31st August 2019, 07:41 AM
That's because they don't impose *laws*, but directives.
Posted by: Izzy 31st August 2019, 07:56 AM
Being pedantic changes precisely nothing about Suedehead’s statement.
Do some research, back up your beliefs.
Posted by: vidcapper 31st August 2019, 08:27 AM
Do some research, back up your beliefs.
Beliefs don't need backing up, as long as you are not trying to convince anyone else.
For example : I seek to change the status quo when I perceive it is failing to do what it is supposed to. e.g. how we deal with crime.
Posted by: 5 Silas Frøkner 31st August 2019, 09:42 AM
Pray tell, how is leaving the EU going to change how we deal with crime? What EU directive or EU law is making it impossible to remain a member and deal with crime?
Posted by: Algernon Monqueef 31st August 2019, 10:30 AM
He is alludin to the right wing rags' hysterical screaming aboot our human rights.
Posted by: Suedehead2 31st August 2019, 10:39 AM
Whatever idiot decided to call them directives is partly responsible for this mess. The term gives the impression that they are decided on a whim by someone in an office and implemented at the stroke of a pen without any democratic input whatsoever.
Posted by: 5 Silas Frøkner 31st August 2019, 12:08 PM
Directives aren’t even mandatory. They set a goal and leave it to the country to decide how to implement it. If there’s a problem with a directive it’s a problem with the implementation of it which means it’s a UK rather than an EU issue
Posted by: Trump2020 31st August 2019, 03:28 PM
Why on earth should he give all his money away? He's earned that fairly and squarely. What a stupid thing to say.
Why don't you give yours away instead?We can't help whom we're attracted to and his wife admits that their marriage has run it's course. Should he be a monk until he's divorced?
Posted by: *Tim 31st August 2019, 04:04 PM
Yes
If both of them are over their marriage they shouldve been divorced already.
Posted by: Trump2020 31st August 2019, 04:08 PM
I can't believe the hatred and general dislike for Boris on here. There must be someone else besides me who likes him! Thank goodness the ordinary Tory members mostly preferred him to Hunt.
I'm actually feeling very despondent today about Brexit. I don't think we'll ever leave tbh. 
I'm sure something will prevent it happening at the end of October. I just want us out asap. This stalemate, caused by MP's, has gone on too long now. Talk of Gordon Brown now having persuaded the EU to extend the deadline. Can't he keep his nose out and remember he's not PM now, thank God. Well Boris doesn't have to agree to another extension and I hope he keeps his nerve and says NO to them as we're leaving on 31st October. He mustn't crumble now as us Brexiteers were promised we were leaving deal or no deal on 31st Oct. If we pass that date and are still in then I can't see us ever leaving which will please you lot but leave millions feeling cheated and disenfranchised.

Don’t worry, he’s lied hundreds of times before - he’ll be able to lie again.
Posted by: TheJüpreme 31st August 2019, 04:12 PM
Sleeping with somebody your daughter's age is disgusting.
Posted by: Trump2020 31st August 2019, 04:13 PM
Boris should put May's deal before MP's for one last time and say either this passes or we will definitely be leaving with no deal. Maybe, just maybe, it will pass then.
Posted by: Trump2020 31st August 2019, 04:14 PM

Yes, corrected.
Posted by: Rooney 31st August 2019, 04:20 PM
You May's deal that so many ardent Brexiteers was so bad they actually stopped Brexit happening on 31st March?
I don't see what the rush is myself. As a country, we are clearly not ready to leave without a Deal. Also your suggestion is also political blackmail, there is a reason Boris Johnson has shut down Parliment, mainly because there is not a favourable majority to leave with No Deal.

What's the rush? The referendum was 2016 and here we are over 3 years later still faffing about and still in there. No deal seems good enough for MP's so what's the answer then? You tell me.
Posted by: Rooney 31st August 2019, 04:28 PM
Yes 3 years later because just leaving an arragement is not as easy as it sounds to the naked eye. It's why trade deals take 5+ years to thrash out, there are so many little points that people fail to consider. No Deal is good enough for some MPs, but not the majority. What you will find with these MPs that want No Deal is they are ideologically driven, likely to make tons of money from leaving the EU and the economy nosediving and also none of the effects will really effect them!
Posted by: Trump2020 31st August 2019, 04:32 PM
No, sorry, my wording was ambiguous. I meant that there's no deal that Boris could negotiate that would be good enough for the present set of MP's and maybe even another set if we had a GE.

I particularly despise serial lairs who have an influence over my life. I can't speak for others, but that is why I have such contempt for him.
Still waiting to hear how you think your (or anyone else's) life will improve if we do leave.
Posted by: Izzy 31st August 2019, 04:55 PM
Boris has a track record of doing awful things. You go on about how he's earned his money, is good for the country, tell that to the woman who got a prison sentence in Iran due to his gaffe. He will support any position if it gains him power. The country should not be beholden to a dishonest crook just because he's "jovial" and has wanted to be PM since he was an Eton schoolboy.
This is, implicitly, one of the most problematic things you've ever posted. Not least because of the power dynamics that are present in a relationship with such a big age gap even discounting that he's a rich politician. The law is not where morality ends and a relationship with an age gap of multiple decades is very sketchy, sleazy at best, and something that the leader of a country should be above.

Posted by: T Boy 31st August 2019, 05:37 PM
I bet Gordon Brown is probably cackling to himself that at least this giant mess didn’t happen under his watch. The fact that history will always see the three pm’s that succeeded him as much more horrific than him which is an absolute stroke of luck for him.
My contact who has met Boris says that Boris is just in love with the fact he’s prime minister. All answers he gave were vague enough to just be a load of guff he thinks people want to hear.
The same contact interviewed Jeremy Corbyn a week later who was actually interested a knowledgeable about the topics he was being asked about. Not that I’m a fan of Corbyn but I can easily believe this take.

Posted by: Trump2020 1st September 2019, 09:46 PM
Well open your mind and see his good points as well as his faults. Are you perfect? Am I perfect? Is anyone on earth perfect? At least he's trying to sort this mess that Mad May left us in.
Posted by: Suedehead2 1st September 2019, 09:55 PM
And his good points are?
Let's look at what he has achieved as PM so far? A few weeks ago, he put the chances of leaving the EU without a deal at a million to one. Now, he says the chances are about 50-50. The government's own assessments say that leaving without a deal would be the most economically damaging form of leaving, so you would think that the government would be committed to avoiding it. But no - the PM has, by his own estimate, taken the chances from vanishingly remote to pretty likely in a matter of weeks. By any reasonable criteria, that is a catastrophically awful start.
Posted by: Tawdry Hepburn 1st September 2019, 10:27 PM
And that's before we even get started on his catalogue of colossal fuck-ups from when he was the Mayor, and as Foreign Secretary. But I realise there's no way of getting Chris the ignoramus to acknowledge that. 
Posted by: Algernon Monqueef 1st September 2019, 10:29 PM
Have tou heard about what Unelected Beaurocrat Dominic Cummings, unelected leader, said about poor people like you??
Posted by: Trump2020 1st September 2019, 10:32 PM
If he was such a bad mayor then why did I and many others re-elect him then? Wait until he wins a thumping majority at the next election, whenever it is.
Posted by: Trump2020 1st September 2019, 10:34 PM
No, please enlighten me?
Posted by: Tawdry Hepburn 1st September 2019, 10:46 PM
I can't claim to speak for the other voters, but I can quite confidently say in the case of you it's because you're a halfwit. Maybe a fair few of them can be tarred with the same brush, though.

Or perhaps this :
https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2013/oct/11/genetics-teaching-gove-adviser
Either way, if you come up with soundbites like the above without sourcing them, you are as disingeneous as any politician, Tory, Labour, or whomever!
Posted by: Izzy 2nd September 2019, 05:09 AM
Okay, let's quote him. From those sources.
In one of the most controversial passages of the thesis, Cummings maintains that individual child performance is mainly based on genetics and a child's IQ rather than the quality of teaching.
He says: "There is strong resistance across the political spectrum to accepting scientific evidence on genetics. Most of those that now dominate discussions on issues such as social mobility entirely ignore genetics and therefore their arguments are at best misleading and often worthless." He claims research shows that as much as 70% of a child's performance is genetically derived.
His testimony about Conservative MPs is also pretty damning even though it's what we are aware of already, and yet of course, he's as immoral as the rest of them and a hypocrite by now working for them:
Posted by: Suedehead2 2nd September 2019, 07:26 AM
As I've said before, he went into the election as clear favourite and ended up winning by a tiny majority.
Perhaps you could list his successes as mayor. It shouldn't take very long.
Posted by: Algernon Monqueef 2nd September 2019, 09:50 AM
Now, is that a dogwhistle to eugenicists? What else is it going to be? The thing is, that aside, his argument is right, the argument that people need to be better educated and challenged in education. So it makes no sense to come down on the nature side of the nature vs nurture debate when pushing the rest of that paper, unless you're a massive racist. Perhaps not a strictly rich vs poor divide, but mischaracterising and dismissing those very worrying concerns is unhelpful.
His testimony about Conservative MPs is also pretty damning even though it's what we are aware of already, and yet of course, he's as immoral as the rest of them and a hypocrite by now working for them:
Those are such damning indictments of the landed gentry worldview! Is it any wonder then that with people lioe him as was education advisor that the funding disparity is what it is?!
Also he accepted over 230k euros in handouts for his farm!!
Is Tory hypocrisy even news these days though?
