The "China Collapse Theory" has been a recurring theme in global financial media for nearly 30 years. Pundits have predicted an "imminent, catastrophic meltdown" year after year but that has consistently failed to materialize. Read anything about China with a cup of salt...

The math ain't mathing here. If 78% are white how then can 26% be black? 1stly % means out of 100 and 78+26=104 2ndly let's momentarily agree that it's 78:22 or 64:26, where does this leave Hispanics and Asians? 3rdly interpretation of stats is key i.e. per capita

Nothing disproves congestion quite like a neatly organised cycle jam presented as evidence that there is none. The moment that flow slowed down it became a jam.

Is there really a migration crisis? In which country? What are the numbers? There is a tendency of framing immigration as a crisis during election periods when the actual problem is economic mismanagement. That then redirects anger towards foreigners instead of the policymakers

It's called "All Rise"

How do you "discover" a whole empire which was trading with Asians centuries before the Europeans set sail?

@RobertJenrick ...and over half a million (532,000 to be precise) left during your time in government. Or are you saying the current government is failing to make that number bigger?

246,000 Brits left last year. Net, 136,000 went. A city the size of Watford. Many are entrepreneurs, investors, small businesspeople. It’s the Starmer Exodus. Reform will Bring Brits Back.

@TerraceThreads1 @PippaCrerar @lewis_goodall @AndyBurnhamGM Labour grassroots are now anti-Shabana, she is toxic so much that she is going to lose her seat, unless something great happens to turn the sentiment around. Greens policy rhetoric is actually driven by those labour grassroots sentiments. They also underestimated their left-wing

@Multi_Facet @PippaCrerar @lewis_goodall @AndyBurnhamGM I don't think it has he has always liked the Scandinavian Nordic style of politics they have traditionally been tough on immigration

EXCL: Andy Burnham is backing Shabana Mahmood’s controversial changes to the immigration system, his allies have said, in a blow to those in Labour who hope to soften them. The Greater Manchester mayor is understood to be keen to reframe the changes - but is supportive of home secretary’s attempts to limit legal and illegal migration. Burnham faces tough fight to return to Westminster against Reform UK, which has already called him “open-borders Andy”. But those close to his campaign say he will not seek to dilute the government’s curbs on migration - which have been criticised by some senior Labour MPs as un-British and mimicking Trump.

The irony in this video and the comments is just epic. It highlights a level of ignorance covered as civilisation. They define civilisation in an ethnocentric way which in itself is another level of uncivilisation

@TwiiitBack @zynnitta_true That's besides the point. We are just correcting the point you put across as the reason for divorce

@Multi_Facet @zynnitta_true that don't matter.. He is Eric Benet.. he is supposed to cheat

So Bonko Khoza wasn’t supposed to Thrust with his penis against her vagina (both where fully clothed)it wasn’t scripted I need actors or directors to fully explain to us what must happen exactly on the sex scene because we as viewers always assume they thrust with genitals? Growing up I thought actors used a pillow in between

@TwiiitBack @zynnitta_true Hale Berry divorced Eric because he was caught cheating multiple times times. The issue if penetration was addressed several times denying the rumour.

@zynnitta_true Angelina divorced bro too

GMO seeds are killing farms. We have terminator gene technology, scientifically known as Genetic Use Restriction Technology (GURT). It's a genetic modification method that causes harvested seeds to be sterile. It's designed to force farmers to purchase new seeds every season

@Chaukehp1 @SixoGcilishe @Julius_S_Malema @Enghumbhini As premier he formally announced it but it was Mashatile's baby

@SixoGcilishe @Julius_S_Malema I thought is @Enghumbhini who came with the concept of Gautrain

President @Julius_S_Malema says not enough credit is given to Deputy President Mashatile. He says he’s the one who came with the concept of Gautrain, today Gautrain debt is paid today because of him #MalemaOnFrankDialogue

Exporters frequently engage in under-invoicing to circumvent strict domestic foreign currency surrender requirements imposed by the Reserve Banks, or to reduce corporate tax obligations esp in Africa. CEPII uses Mirror Statistics and Reliability Weighting to reflect "fair" value

@owenjonesjourno @MichaelLCrick There is a downside either way. If they rush it, Reform will carry their current momentum. The best way is just to identify hidden stars and they will shine through the debates. Nick Clegg, Jeremy Corbyn, are prime examples of how debates can bring the spotlight

@MichaelLCrick Surely the people deciding when it takes place want Burnham to lose

@AndyBurnhamGM Is this a mistake? Time will tell

I can confirm that I will be requesting the permission of the NEC to stand in the Makerfield by-election. I grew up in this area and have lived here for 25 years. I care deeply about it and its people. I know they have been let down by national politics. Ten years ago, I decided to leave Westminster. Why? Because, after 16 years, I came to the conclusion that our national political system does not work for areas like ours. I learnt this fighting its failure to invest in the Wigan borough, for justice for the Hillsborough families and against its treatment of Greater Manchester during the pandemic. Over the last decade, I have been challenging this failure from the outside and building a new and better way of doing politics. We have built Greater Manchester into the fastest-growing city-region in the UK and put buses back under public control, introducing a £2 fare cap to help people with cost-of-living pressures. However, there is only so much that can be done from Greater Manchester. Much bigger change is needed at a national level if everyday life is to be made more affordable again. This is why I now seek people’s support to return to Parliament: to bring the change we have brought to Greater Manchester to the whole of the UK and make politics work properly for people. Millions are struggling and they need the Labour Government to succeed. It has already made changes to make life better for them in its first two years. After this week, we owe it to people to come back together as a Labour movement, giving the Prime Minister and the Government the space and stability they need as the by-election takes place. I want to recognise the difficult decision taken by Josh Simons and the sacrifice he and his family are making. I have worked closely with him as Mayor on issues like flooding and illegal waste dumping and have seen first-hand how effective he has been. He has put the communities of Makerfield first, made a real difference for them and should take great pride in that. Finally, I truly do not take a single vote for granted and will work hard to regain the trust of people in the Makerfield constituency, many of whom have long supported our party but lost faith in recent times. We will change Labour for the better and make it a party you can believe in again. ENDS

Observation: The UK is like that big team which can save a lot penalties. Defends hard so much that the concede any goals from free-play, free kicks or corner kicks but still lose the game because the goalkeeper rolls the ball into his own net. It is the most underrated country

@paulmasonnews @Keir_Starmer With all that he still lost the party a significant chunk of the votes. That is because people who usually vote Labour were angry with something else. If you identify what that is, then there is some hope

Labour's @Keir_Starmer NHS waiting lists coming down, child poverty is coming down, immigration is coming down...

@TedUrchin Tony Blair kept the left in the party. Starmer kicked them out. That is the difference. By kicking them out, he opened the door for the Greens. What would your advice be? Kick out the remaining left? Then what? Blair had the so called "loony left" in his cabinet

It’s times like these that Blair had his pit bull beside him. John Prescott. John took no shit from the loony left and kept them in line.
