Michael Foot said he classed Enoch Powell as one of his closest friends and in many ways politically aligned
And you could take it a step further if you wanted to be anti-Conservative while doing so, you can also point out that Churchill was Stalin's best mate when it suited him. A Tory, buddying up with a Communist!
He could have at least spelt his name right.
Hitchens really is a detestable individual.
Well... far left and far right aren't far apart - there's a reason they were National Socialists after all!
Lots of state intervention, state construction projects etc...
Sadly wrong though. Goebbels and Strasser did push for a more socialist agenda in the late 20s, Hitler shut it down. The name is as meaningful as the ‘Democratic’ Republic of Congo
It may not be your socialism, but that doesn't mean there were some pretty socialist elements within it.Sadly wrong though. Goebbels and Strasser did push for a more socialist agenda in the late 20s, Hitler shut it down. The name is as meaningful as the ‘Democratic’ Republic of Congo

On a more moderate level, John Major probably doesn't recognise this Conservative government as one he'd have been happy to be part of, but it doesn't mean that they don't share some tendencies.
More to the left in certain areas. A state controlled programme of works is as socialist as you can get! Genocidal mania... well I'll pass on that myself really!Well no it’s just that there were attempts to take the Nazis more to the left and they were overruled. That and making ideological enemies with the USSR
Did anyone notice that Mordant said Lineker played on the left wing in her speech? He didn't: he was played out of position on the RIGHT wing at Barcelona for a short while. This makes me think that probably, either:Well... far left and far right aren't far apart - there's a reason they were National Socialists after all!

There are those that say the political spectrum of left and right eventually curve round and form a circle.How were they different from Mussolini and Stalin?
Extremism essentially meets together
They HATED the Communists, a lot of which comes out of an attempted Marxist revolution there: Spartacist uprising - WikipediaWell no it’s just that there were attempts to take the Nazis more to the left and they were overruled. That and making ideological enemies with the USSR
Sunak’s shitting it. Just released a statement on a Saturday night. Didn’t even dare to wait until Monday. Suddenly finding out who the silent majority are after all. Spoiler alert, it isn’t the Tories and their client press.
Perhaps it’s a typo. It should have read far right not fair and right.Gary Lineker row: PM hopes BBC dispute 'can be resolved'
Mr Sunak also reiterated the government's stance on "stopping the boats" before finishing the statement by saying "I know not everyone will always agree, but I do believe this is fair and right".news.sky.com
On the "stopping the boats" policy, "I do believe this is fair and right". Well, he's half correct!
Didn't realise you cared so much about human rights in Qatar.... lovely to see.Interesting point, the jug eared twat was quite happy to take the money when providing punditry for Qatar, but feels he can lecture the government on morals?
Seems a bit like double standards to me.
Highlights were literally 20 mins tonight with no commentary
Thoughts from those that watched it?

Hi Boosh, bye BooshPerhaps the hypocrisy of your beloved pundits is getting to you
Dog whistle politics at its worst.Stop the boats is yet another vacuous and empty slogan. It was the same stuff pushed by Meloni’s party to get votes from those easily sucked in by their nonsense - rather than stopping them, there have been over 17,500 arrivals - 3 times the number of last year.
Dog whistle politics at its worst.
Interesting read, I think he's quite correct.Appreciate many won’t be fans of Liddle but this is an interesting take on the whole linekar/wider debates on social media, one which I agree with
Amazing that it should take a crisp-seller to show us how social media has fried our intelligence
Marbles.The Lineker bounce.
Not sure what the Tories are going to fight the next election on. Clearly not their own record in government and the phoney culture war that they’re trying to stoke clearly isn’t going to work either. The silent majority has found their voice and it isn’t who 30p Lee claims them to be.

Lineker does not speak for nation & Labour are heading for electoral ruin
THE case against Gary Lineker is crystal clear . . . not that he has sabotaged Rishi Sunak’s crackdown on illegal migrants, but that he has dealt a killer blow to his own beloved BBC. The Beeb, th…www.thesun.co.uk
People can't fart nowadays without someone wanting to put them down. Left, Right, LBQT 7 protected rights.
I buy into people having a voice of course. The squeakiest wheel always seems to get oiled. Me, I don't want anyone imposing their values. It gets even more complicated when the rich think they hold Labour / Liberal values when their actions do not bear witness to this.
As I've said before, give Lineker a show of his own. The problem will be that he has limited political awareness and would not last 5 minutes. Lineker does not come over as being 'charismatic' he is just a very naughty boy.
And another thing, Lineker has a good life. I wonder if he wants all the shit he's created over the past few days?
