British Politics

[theHotHead]

Could a Trump succeed in British politics though ? The US have had an actor become President (Reagan). We are too safe over here, we would never give someone like Trump the mandate and its someone like Trump - not indoctrinated in politics - to come in and make the big bold decisions that are needed.

We are just too safe here with voting

You can't make this shit up !!!!

Now Labour are demanding rules in banking be relaxed to allow more risk taking, so that they are happier with the growth figures ! The very reason we have the extra governance is to rein in wild bankers and to reduce the risk taking that the entire country had to pay for - not the bankers !

Add to that, she wants to let the bankers get their bonuses early by cutting the 8 year deferral - a policy put in place after the financial crisis to ensure that senior bankers behave well in the long term - to 5 years.

Now - were it the Conservatives proposing either of these 2 changes people would be up in arms !!!!

Don't get me started on the Thought Police claims !!!

Yes we'd never go the celeb route, however Trump is a shrewd business man so not quite the same.

Right now I'm even tempted with Farage.

Yes he had RW sl*gs in his party unfortunately but we need a disrupter in govt.

Not just the same old who are literally against us.
