As a human being with a soul I find Kemi Badenoch repulsive, however, to edit and decontextualise her words for this advert is despicable. It's only purpose is to create division and anger.

Reform are standing by it, even though they know it's not the point she was making.

“The BMA GPs Committee for England (GPC England) will ballot GPs…on…an alternative strategy…that would allow GPs greater freedom to provide private services to their patients. This follows the passing of a resolution at UK LMC Conference earlier this month that called for the consideration of a means-tested, subscription-based service, such as those being offered currently by NHS dentists.”

This is not being reported on. Essentially, GPs in England have voted to explore an alternative to their contract with the NHS, on the lines of dentists. Privatisation in other words. "The latest contract imposition and the Government’s demand for GPs to provide unlimited access is the final straw for many.” #Doctors #GPs #NHS #UKPolitics GP Committee for England vote overwhelmingly to explore an alternative strategy for general practice - BMA media centre - BMA https://www.bma.org.uk/bma-media-centre/gp-committee-for-england-vote-overwhelmingly-to-explore-an-alternative-strategy-for-general-practice

"An MP has warned that “intrusive” affordability checks on horse-racing bets could “damage” the industry."

Gambling ruins lives, but it's only the lives of gullible ordinary people, which don't really count if you're a #Tory MP on £95K p.a. & expenses.

Ich finde ja eigentlich, dass niemand mehr einen schwarzen Gürtel in #Politikwissenschaft benötigt, um zu begreifen:

Wenn die politische & mediale Strategie der #Rechtsmimesis (der Abwertung von Menschengruppen & Zerspaltung der Gesellschaft) irgendwo funktionieren würde, dann…

- hätte die DNVP die Nazis in den 1930er Jahren „entzaubert“,

- wären Tories & Labour in UK 🇬🇧 heute stark,

- wäre die Merz-CDU mit über 30% & die FDP überhaupt noch in den Bundestag gewählt worden, 🇩🇪🇪🇺

- wäre NIUS profitabel und Putin befriedet 🔥💸

- und die AfD „halbiert“.

Rechtsmimesis hat nie funktioniert und wird nicht funktionieren.

Wer also immer noch behauptet, durch die Nachahmung rechtsmimetischer, fossilistischer & verschwörungsmythologischer Narrative Demokratien stabilisieren zu können, ist entweder unsagbar blöd oder versucht Dich zu täuschen.

Meine ich pro #Menschenwürde.

Irrespective of which #government is in power at Westminster, #Labour #Tory #Reformltd or #Libdems,

they will not #rejoin the #EU, or work to the benefit of the people in #Scotland, #Wales, #England or #NorthernIreland...

they are only interested in holding power and in themselves...

Let’s also consider what happened to the latest generation coming of age 6 years ago…their education and social world imploded with #COVID.

And quite honestly very little was done by the #Tory government or schools to consider the long term impact of this or what support measures would be required.

They also grew up in the Wild West of social media. Adults did diddly squat to protect them….that continues to this day.

Warnte ja als einer der Ersten in der CDU angesichts des Schwenks zur AfD vor der rechtslibertären & fossilen Engführung unter Friedrich Merz & Christian Lindner.

Empfinde aber angesichts der katastrophalen Performance und Kanzlertausch-Szenarien in der Berliner Hauptstadtblase nicht Häme, sondern Sorge.

Fürchte, es wird dereinst in den Geschichtsbüchern stehen:

„Nach Boris Johnson (Tory) und Keir Starmer (Labour) in Großbritannien bewiesen dann auch Christian Lindner (FDP) und Friedrich Merz (CDU) in Deutschland, dass Rechtsmimesis immer wieder nur den Faschismus verstärkt und die demokratische Mitte halbiert.“

Spreche am Abend des 2. Juni auf Einladung des Weltethos-Institutes an der Uni Tübingen über „Macht, Medien & Mimesis“.

Wird Bundeskanzler Merz durch einen Konkurrenten ersetzt?

In der Union kursiert ein Szenario: Mitten in der laufenden Legislaturperiode könnte Kanzler Merz ausgetauscht werden. Aber geht das eigentlich so einfach? Drei mögliche Szenarien.

Also #Labour and #Tory inability to cope with the idea of power-sharing if they aren't top dog.

It's amusing that Reform can so easily trigger the Tories with this kind of messaging, when ther MSP s are whining that no-one will talk to them.

Such jibes only work if the voters think you've sold out or been a patsy. I say this as a proud member of the "gardening wing of the SNP" (Labour's clunking anti-Green propaganda, which has worked so well).
