    Best ensure that those in the South remember and act at the polling station - "The North, remembers"

    The scumbag 'nasty party' proposed boundary changes, but the Bill to enact such change never passed into legislation, so one of your excuses falls at the first hurdle. so what's the rest of your excuse for the 'red wall' scumbag 'nasty party' members - hmmm???

    It's not my place to justify the actions of others - clearly you have a fixation with the "Scumbag nasty party"
    And yet ....
    Avoid saying what you are actually doing about it - apart from moaning on a forum
    "methinks you doth protest too much"

    Now see what the blond khazi mop head has done !!!


    Not Sure Who Famed Raw Onion-Chomper Tony Abbott Is? No Problem, We've Got You Covered
    The former Australian PM has reportedly been recruited by Boris Johnson to help with Brexit trade deals.

    If reports that ex-Australian PM Tony Abbott has been recruited by Boris Johnson to assist with Brexit trade deals doesn’t make you choke on your coffee, then you’re clearly not acquainted with ex-Australian PM Tony Abbott.


    According to The Sun, the man who was so bad at his job he was ousted by his own party, has been appointed joint president of Britain’s relaunched Board of Trade.

    Now it should be noted that UK officials have played down the reports but even the mention of his name among Wednesday’s headlines warrants a nostalgic examination of the man’s erm... highlights.

    The onion
    Let’s begin with something that even five years and one president Trump later, still ranks of one of the most bizarre moments in global political history.

    In 2015 while visiting a farm in Tazmania, Abbott ate a raw onion – skin and all – in front of the presumably aghast press.

    Just watch...

    Just a normal day between the Gizmodo Australia and UK editors where I am explaining the Tony Abbott onion situation to @tepritchard

    "What the fuck, was the skin on?"

    A great question, Tom. Yes. pic.twitter.com/eaHNakfv0K

    — (@Tegan_Writes) August 25, 2020
    Why did he do this? Even all this time later it’s still not exactly clear. In a 2019 interview he claimed it was to show “appreciation” to a hard working farmer. But he could have just shaken his hand like a normal person...

    The wink
    Onions aside, Abbott is actually best-known for a series of truly awful public gaffes, an alarming number of which feature a heavy dose of misogyny and/or xenophobia.

    One of the creepiest occurred during a radio call in 2014 from a distressed pensioner who said she had to resort to phone sex work to make ends meet.

    As the chronically-ill grandmother and pensioner Gloria introduced herself, saying: “I work on an adult sex line to make ends meet”, Abbott was caught on camera winking and smiling in the direction of ABC Radio host Jon Faine (off camera).

    The ironing
    Never one to steer away from a sexist cliche, in 2010 while still opposition leader he visited a dry cleaners and attempted to warn of higher electricity prices under the government’s emissions trading scheme.

    How did he do this? Well, by saying: “What the housewives of Australia need to understand, as they do the ironing, is that if they get it done commercially it’s going to go up in price – and their own power bills when they switch the iron on are going to go up.”

    The backlash
    Obviously none of the above went unnoticed and as well as the aforementioned political ousting, Abbott took an absolute pounding on a number of occasions, most notably when Julia Gillard absolutely destroyed him in what has been voted “the most unforgettable moment of Australian TV history”.

    Ironically, the then-PM GIllard’s speech was prompted by accusations of sexism – from Abbott.

    She was having absolutely none of it, saying: “If he wants to know what misogyny looks like in modern Australia, he doesn’t need a motion in the House of Representatives, he needs a mirror.

    “That’s what he needs.”

    It is absolutely worth watching in full...

    Since we’re talking about Tony Abbott, #tbt to when @JuliaGillard tore him a new one pic.twitter.com/rouSC77BHu

    The borders
    Away from sexism and misogyny, Abbott also has a reputation for xenophobia which was encapsulated in a speech he gave in the UK 2015 shortly after he lost his job.

    During an event at London’s Guildhall, Abbott said Europe needed to “stand up for ourselves” and close its borders to migrants “for the universal decencies of mankind, lest the world rapidly become a much worse place”.

    Given Abbott’s policy in Australia was to simply turn away boats carrying migrants and refugees before they reached the country’s shores, the advice was said to have made Tory ministers present wince.

    The speech has been widely dismissed by Australian’s and Britons alike. However, he did find support from Nigel Farage, who called it “heroic”, and from English Defence League founder Tommy Robinson.

    If you don't understand the manner and/or comprehend wha/why I use the language which I do - the perhaps you should 'call a friend' .... that is, if you have one?
    You do a lot of complaining and moaning and throwing insults but ...
    • Nothing Positive
    • Nothing Constructive
    • Nothing that promotes any kind of pro-active action that you do
    Is a far more accurate description about yourself

    Still can't answer my question. If the North 'remembers' - how come the increase in scumbag 'nasty party' members came from the North in Boris's 'red wall' - hmmm ???

    I'm not sure how much I can keep saying, Figures manipulation (ID of areas and strategic boundary changes (look what they did in Sale, Trafford in general and carved up Crewe, Nantwich and Macc).
    This coupled with some adopting the 'off-grid' strategy' - of thereby un-registered.
    One only has to look at areas like Barton, Styal and Moss side/Hulme for the unknown presence out there.
    There is a genuine concern of 'Big Brother watching' - and a reality.
    Only a fool would believe all that's written is true. Personal observation and experience tells the true story.
    As for "the North remembers" - ever heard of Jarrow? - and even Peterloo? - these are still sore points today, despite the passing of time

    Yeah, still can't answer the question - has no answer as to why the people of the North, despite remembering the injustices that emanated from the scumbag 'nasty party' still votes for them in large numbers - so much for remembering !!!

    What was the phrase again that you used? - "All wind and urine"
    It seems that that it is YOU that do not have the answers - or do you?
    Won't say you'd vote for - only who you would not
    Negative criticism - No Positive solutions made
    Fixation with going on about a phrase (regularly used in) about the North. - So what is happening in the South then . apathy of self-preservation of a way of life ?
    I don't know, because I'm familiar with life and living in the South, just as you have no clue of what is happening in the North

    Because contrary to your assertion "that the North remembers", it would seem that people in the North have very short memories indeed and vote the scumbags who have repeatedly kicked in the teeth. Aren't the scumbag 'nasty party' the inheritors of Thatcher (phth, phth, phth) that did a magnificent job of destruction of industry in the North, and still they vote for the blond khazi mop-head !!!
