Back on the Boris bus slogan. A politician (possibly IDS I don't remember) pointed out that this sort of statement should not end up in court as it the typical selective facts / distortion of the truth that goes on all the time in politics. He went on to say that it was dealt with at time time by many Remainer politicans who objected to it and called out the Leave campaign over it. In short politician makes statement that other politicians disputed at the time. By the way IDS has said he stands by that statement so why isn't he in the dock. One more point

If I remember correctly, Osborne made comments suggesting 500000 job losses and a completely collapsed economy straight after a Leave vote....neither happened, why isnt Osborne in the dock too?....all lies, the one thing politicians are good at....this Boris Johnson thing is just a set up to stop him becoming PM

I have no love for Boris but somebody bitching about a slogan on a frickin' bus despite Blairs' antics (people DIED!) should tell everyone all they need to know about society today. Such a shame.

Originally posted by Maine Eagle Lol. The wrong amount was put on the bus, that’s called lying. The whole amount of this fake amount cannot go to the NHS, funding public services is a bit more complicated than that. Complicated how? Not complicated for Gordon Brown. Bellow it out in the HoC and it’s done. COYP
