Hope he can explain what his company has done and why he is worth his top dollar salary. I believe Thunderbird 1 may have been dispatched to retrieve Raab from the beach. Would this count?

I’d be surprised if Raab could count. He’s no idea where Dover is. He can’t spot an international crisis when it’s being described to him by a senior civil servant. This is what you get when you insist that all of your cabinet are Brexiters. They are either mad, stupid, or greasy pole climbers. Or just useless, in Raab’s case.

Your sympathy for the refugees is a human feeling which is exactly the way I feel. Doesn't alter the fact that this country is sinking under the weight of overpopulation and lack of infrastructure to cope with it. 10 hours ago, sibon said: I’d be surprised if Raab could count.

I suppose you realise that you have just called the majority of people in this country mad and stupid. I thought we were trying to rid the forum of that sort of language, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could have taken it to refer to the cabinet, which falls some way short of being a majority of people in this country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cabinet were the subject of the preceding sentence. I think it’s obvious that the “they” in the next sentence also refers to the cabinet. It’s a real shame that we have such a second rate bunch of ministers in the cabinet. All for ideological reasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry spilldig your interpretation has been ruled out of order. Edited August 20, 2021 by Carbuncle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
