No they aren't. He is a politician, so does what all politicians do. Which is to emphasise what suits their agenda and also make mistakes when going off script. Shine a light on any politician and you would get a similar picture.

The CNN analysis was interesting. Particularly this paragraph:-

"Unlike his uniquely dishonest predecessor, Biden did not bury fact-checkers in a daily avalanche of serial falseness. Biden never came close to making a dozen false claims in a single speech, let alone five dozen false claims in one address, as Trump once did. In fact, the total number of Biden false claims so far is in the dozens, while Trump delivered well over 1,000 total false claims in his own first year and more than 3,000 the next year."

It is true, you did say words to that effect.

I'll leave it to others to decide who from the two of us is the more likely to be dishonest or...if you actually believe what you're saying.... the most likely to remember correctly.

I am a social conservative...Most people in the grass roots of any right wing party support some degree of social conservatism.

The leaderships of both main parties are currently disfigurements of their base memberships with Labour moving to the right...and doing a 'Cameron' (who himself was doing a 'Blair') in filtering out anyone who doesn't fall into line on the hunt for the votes of wet economic social liberals who like their house prices....trying to convince them he won't scare the horses.

While the Tories also present as social liberals in the same hunt for centralists who don't trust Labour....But the Tories aren't actually conservative anymore.....As in they break their promises and don't actually try to conserve anything.....Even Starmer accused them of that....Using an attack that comes right from the grass roots of the right.

As for me with far right opinions....what is and isn't far right is debatable. Some views I hold would be considered that while others not. Essentially I'll end up voting for whatever is the most socially conservative option because our society is degenerating fast and the vulnerable and children are in that firing line.

You on the other hand consider yourself a centralist, whilst refusing to condemn sexual child mulitation that's banned in this country....while the guy you call wise, Biden, defends it and condemns those against it.

Dr John Campbell has been one of the few media figures I'm aware of that's continued and persisted in looking at the excess death figures within all age groups, using official statistics.

Here he looks at the excess deaths within the young age groups in England.

Or maybe he just got it wrong. He is after all a self professed "gaffe machine".

Very possible. What's not is the assertion he was deliberately misleading people for nefarious purposes.

There you go again! Claiming you know what I mean better than I do!

Do you not see how arrogant that is?

The Tories need to make up their mind if they want to survive as a major party or risk rivalling Reform, or whatever Farage decides to call himself, as the home for the fringe on the right. They will only survive if they control the centre. The same is true for every party. They may have to do it in coalitions in the future as I see a major realignment on the horizon, which is long overdue. People with views like yours must have voices in parliament but never again via controlling a major party. We need some honesty and for the hard right fringe of the Tories to leave in some way and join Farage. Maybe that’s where Johnson is headed!

That you, again, insult me by suggesting I don’t condemn child mutilation is disgusting. Of course I do. I just don’t use such over emotional terms to describe medical procedures. You let your prejudices overcome reason.
