Is Sunak actually trying to get re-elected, or is he content to torpedo the Tory party for a nice fat director's job somewhere after the dust has settled?
Indians aren't English. British, by construction, is multinational. That the commonwealth backwashed into England is the great shame of the British Empire.
Correct. My point is that 'British' as a constructed identity spans nationalities, Unionist Irish included. You can take exception and exclude the commonwealth as not being British, but citizenship was granted to emigres from the commonwealth during the process of decolonization. For that reason there are many British Citizens who are not of English, Irish, Scottish, or Welsh extraction.
Much like American doesn't necessarily mean 'Part of the European Diaspora' after the Immigration and Nationality act of 1965, British no longer means 'Indigenous to Britain.' It's the same cultural (and arguably racial) corruption and degradation seen broadly across the West. Without a degree of xenophobia sufficient to maintain the host culture, multicultural empires tend to erode their root stock.
Yes. Other people will lump English, Irish, and Scots and Welsh together whether they identify that way or not. To the rest of the world, it's a pretty small set of islands.
The conservatives have been courting the Muslim vote just like Labour. They could be the 'swing vote', much like the black community is in the USA. Although, don't quote me on this.
Trump simped hard for them and barely moved the needle.
I think this will be proven wrong should Trump manage to actually make it through the election . . . even if he's wearing an ankle bracelet under house arrest (actually because of it) he will get a large percentage of the black vote.
Well, given Sir Kier Starmer's comments (I always add the "Sir" when I can, because he likes to pretend he's a man of the people), they're more likely to abandon Labour and go hard-line Muslim third-party than they are to vote Tory, it seems.
Just think, Britain could soon have it's own Hamas party!
Also considering the fact that many Hamas leaders were found to be living in the UK without suffering consequences despite being members of a banned group.
I don't trust her, not because she's a woman on politics (that's a given for anyone in politics) but I swear she was on her way out anyway for something else and this is her just pandering to the tide turning. She's a weathervane likely to stab you in the back as much as ever help you.
The one non-simp the Tories had, and it's a woman, and they still sacked her. The chances they'll get re-elected are now 0%.

Yes. His FIL will provide pet indians that follow instructions at will.
He was never elected in the first place so I think his chances at winning are slim, so probably the latter.
Indians aren't British either.

Fuck off. Being a subject of the British Empire us separate to being British.
Being a quarter Irish, I would agree.
AFAIK most of Ireland has been not-Britain for a long time.

Yes, that honor is only given to Pakistani rapists, and Jimmy Saville aficionados.
But they have the passports! Civ nationalism can still work! 😢
Actually...they're probably the closest to british, being raised in a british educational system and culture.

Except blacks aren't a swing vote. Trump simped hard for them and barely moved the needle.
They should be ignored by the right politically

Who cares if 2 more black people vote for trump?
😂 Zero chance they vote for anyone except Labour

Very likely and no joke, given its immigration "policy.".
Also considering the fact that many Hamas leaders were found to be living in the UK without suffering consequences despite being members of a banned group.
The UK is like Mexico City for cartelista relatives. People just go there when they get kicked out of other places
The retards on the right everywhere are just leftists in denial.
"but if we appeal to minorities more"
They'll still vote for whoever gives them the most gibs and whoever enables their criminal bullshit.

Can't be spouting facts. The emperor is NOT naked.
It's like reddit mods in real life, you always get banned right at the point where you start realizing and talking about what's actually going on.
Braverman was all talk and no action despite being one of very few in place to act definitively. The myth of the based brown is just that.
Braverman? There's no fucking way that's real.
He reshuffled the whole cabinet, but some "quit" and some were "sacked." That seems like a distinction without meaning.
replace her with an englishman who will actually do his job-ahahahahahahahahahahaha fat chance, it'll be another foreigner.
