ReesheesuKnack:
You listed three 3️⃣ right/centre-leaning presenters . That is negligible in comparison to the tens of leftists, including some that are borderline self-righteous far left folks. I think as far as LBC is, for every 1 right-leaning presenter, there are 9 left-leaning colleagues.

As for canvassing… I am still deciding who I want to canvass for. You see this UK parliamentary system of Govt, I don’t like it much. I would’ve loved if it was some sort of proportional representation system . But you see this first-past-the-post… I don’t like it. I give you an example. In 2019, I absolutely, absolutely loved my local MP. But I wholeheartedly detested what JC represented. In that occasion, I was happy cos I voted the red party, my local MP won. But the red party (under JC) didn’t form a govt.

I wish it was some sort of presidential system-like voting system, or at least proportional representation kinda system.

Unfortunately, as far as Westminster is concerned, from missjekyll’s red 🔴 party, to Zahra29’s yellow 🟨 (or is it orange) party, to the blue 🔵 party… none of them wants proportional representation in Westminster.
Sad.
You are 100% tory,my good man.Lol. If you move any further to the right, you ll be in Reform UK territory.
Canvassing is not compulsory. It comes out of a deep conviction about what you are selling.
I don't agree with some of Labour's policies but I have no fear about this product.

We can iron out the parts we don't like later.

There is a high risk especially if you canvass for the tories.
But we canvass in groups for safety reasons and to cover more ground.

If your interest is in a mostly left-leaning, Brexit-hating, and woke-leaning Radio with lots of callers calling in to moan and moan about the UK, the LBC is your go-to station. It’s 97.3 on FM (also available on DAB) and on the Global player app.


If you want some news, some drama, some comedy, some docu-series and general enlightenment, I suggest BBC Radio 4.

If you want a migrant-castigating, migrant-vilifying and hugely right-leaning radio, listen to TalkRadio or GB News Radio (available on DAB and on the App and on your smart speaker).


Those are the ones I listen to anyways.
Nick Ferrari,Iain Dale, Even Bonzos Sister has a show on LBC. They are all right
James O brien is their biggest star and is definitely left. I recommend LBC . I watch on YouTube everyday.

On another note,canvassing has started. Are you doorknocking for your party? I highly recommend it. You ll hear people's stories and laugh with random people. You do have to be fit as the walking no be here.

Hi people, How do I determine how much to offer on a house.

I want to offer just enough to look serious but I don't want to give up the whole farm on an initial offer. Thanks in advance

Thank you for the information. Going through the process on UKVI it directed that £19 be paid but he was then taken to the biometric capturing to further pay £139 and book a date. Please kindly, explain further. The letter is available. £139 is not small.
Thanks once again
Gosh. I may have been giving you outdated information. It does appear like you need another biometrics appointment.
I do apologise. Should have checked beforehand

Has anyone replaced a lost BRP in UK. Please how much is the total cost (card + recapturing). Trying to help a friend.
Thanks
Remember that letter it came with? Where is it? You don't need a recapture but you do need the details on the letter for the reissue.

Edit: Kindly disregard the above. You DO need a recapture if you lose your brp

Hey guys, I am looking for answers or solutions to my situation.
I am married to my Igbo husband for 6 years now and we are living abroad, I myself am of mixed blood, half amerindian and half African.
The problem is, my husband has a son with a woman many years ago, he now wants to pay her bride price to claim his son.
Will that action give her any rights or is it only for him to be able to get his child. This woman has been calling his phone unstoppable as if she is his wife, what am I missing here? I am his wife, and this matter is disrupting the peace in my home. We have 3 children together , a son and after two daughters.
Paying the bride price makes her his 2nd wife. He doesn't need that to acknowledge his son. While he is out of Nigeria,he can't do much with his 2nd wife. But I would start making contingency plans, if I were you and be ready to implement them.

Good luck

Most of Nigeria's embezzled funds are sitting mostly in US/UK banks all thanks to their government that enables and makes it easy for Nigerian politicians so export their stolen funds. The majority of stolen Africa's resources are been consumed and received by the Western conglomerates as well.

The UK/US govt are still running investigation on COVID-19 fund mismanagement.

I swear from the video, they lack coordination. It looked more like a militia group. A militia group would do better self. Communication too was also poor. If this is how nigerian soldiers have been fighting in the north east then no wonder they've been battling them for more than a decade.

It will be a well thoughtout policy not a jaguda ,scattershot, harebrained one.

I guess the original question was about Labour’s plans for war spending. Put on another way, what will be Labour’s Defense budget commitment?

We all know what Labour’s most recent starboy (JC) was up to. Thank Goodness Sir Keir kicked his sorry a** out of the party.

@ missjekyll, what's Labours plans on war spending? Will they spend millions protecting the red sea rather than give that to the less well-off or the NHS?
Red Sea? They haven't got a policy yet on that so far as I can see. Pray tell ,What's happening in the Red Sea? I had no idea anything was going on over there.

We are currently expecting our first child , she should give birth within a this month.

She has requested money for baby things and I have given her over 400k but she hasn’t both the basic things she needs. She usually go with her mom to the market to get the things but they haven’t even both the things the baby will need in the hospital.
They went and bought baby wardrobe even though we already had baby wardrobe that was given to us on our wedding , she also both baby duvet without buying bed , the clothes she bought was for a month old baby , she didn’t even buy the first wear the baby would use , so far I haven’t even seen anything tangible she has bought with 400k plus I’ve given her, she hasn’t even bought the things she needs after delivery .

I don’t know if it’s her mom that’s telling her to buy those things, the mom doesn’t even care where the money comes from , she just demands that we buy this and that .

I was thinking the money I gave her would be enough to buy the most basic things she and the baby needs , now she’s demanding more
Go buy for yourself. Finish

Labour is EXACTLY like Nigerian APC in 2014. Lots of promises. Lots of hot air. Zero substance. Ask them the simplest question about the ‘HOW’ and they begin to starmer (pun intended).
Ask them how they will cut NHS waiting times, they starmer and blow more hot air. Ask them if they are going to decrease or increase taxes, for the ordinary person, they will say they want private schools to pay taxes. Ask them how they will fund their fantasies, they will tell you NonDom. As if nondom is a silver bullet.


Even on this thread, ask the most vocal Labour supporter (missjekyll) she will just go on and on rehashing punch lines.

All, very hot air.

Why are you so optimistic about Labour? Why do you think they would do better?

Taylor Wimpey have got your freehold now. Once they sell the last house in the estate, they ll sell your freehold to a third party that won't be you.
