Give up James no one’s listening
-
We got 2% of our gas from Russia-and zero of anything from Ukraine- so I’m sick of hearing that as an excuse for corporate profits rocketing as prices rose.
-
14 years of total failure.
-
Hopefully the last time i ever see not so Cleverley and his band of crooks ever again.
-
That’s the beauty of democracy and civil rights, Cleverly. People can celebrate that art work and be against the government and your party.
-
14 wasted years. The UK has gone backwards under the Tories and their Brexit disaster. Can't blame the pandemic.
-
Jimmy Dimly at it again…
-
So despite having a huge majority in parliament, it's the oppositions fault for the tories not being able to fix anything?
-
Who's been in power for the past 14 years, and who's therefore responsible for the immigration policies threatening the lives of asylum seekers? The Tories ought to be deported to Rwanda.
-
The resentment in the eyes of this minister.... he is lost and he knows it.... Doomed!!
-
I wonder how Banksy would feel when the scores of Doctors and Engineers rocked up to the gated community he lives in….
-
14 years of hurt Cleverly still bleating.
-
‘’Covid, the war in Ukraine’’, Cleverly doesn’t mention Brexit.
-
The ties always come off when they want your vote. Strange
-
Cannot wait for Braintree to vote him out.
-
Still finds time to dye his beard.
-
Banksy reminds folk that the boat people are real people and not the caricatures they are portrayed as.
-
No mention of the cost of brexit
-
Covid was 4 years ago, can we not move on abd do wgat is best fir UK
-
Banksy was making a political statement, not laughing at the crossings. He is so out of touch. Vote him out with the rest. Come voters UK expects!
