His Wife is taking over

Ammi 10-11-2019 06:53 AM

The leaders of three main political parties will take a break from the election campaign trail as they join members of the Royal Family at the Cenotaph.

Boris Johnson said he will be "proud" to lay his first wreath at the war memorial as prime minister, and vowed to continue to "champion those who serve today with such bravery in our military".

He said: "On Remembrance Sunday this year I will be thinking of the men and women who, over the centuries, have given so much to protect our country.

"I will especially remember the men and women who gave the ultimate sacrifice in war, so that today we can live in peace."



Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn said: "We remember the many brave people from Britain and all across the world who put their lives on the line, making huge sacrifices in two world wars which cost the lives of millions, and in all the other conflicts since."


He added: "For so many of our armed forces, our veterans and their families who have given and still give so much to us, they are not getting the support they deserve."



Liberal Democrat leader Jo Swinson, who will be attending the service for the first time as Lib Dem leader, said: "Today we remember all those who gave their lives so that we can live in freedom.

"We also give our heartfelt thanks to those members of our armed forces, to veterans and their families, for all they do and the sacrifices they make to keep us safe."

Retirement age is a suggestion not a demand, to restrict competent people from employment would be ageist and is as wrong as sexism if used as a tool to prevent access to jobs.

if you look at both the UK and the USA,many of the people up for the important jobs are south of 70 and they are just not mentally agile. It shows up in their debates and interviews all the time. These aren't the people we should have running our countries, and I say that as someone who is no spring chicken himself.

Ammi 10-11-2019 08:24 AM

...didn’t Winson Churchill become PM when he was retirement age...(..to name but one..)...behave yourself, bots...:laugh:..


...it’s surely about the PM who would be best for the country, not what age they are...

Lumping all older people together like this does nothing to prove your point, during an interview a pause for thought for you proves ineptitude?
I'd say the opposite, I prefer it when theres not an instantaneous trotting out of party lines or slogans that require no thought at all.
Unless you have specific evidence of older politicians becoming confused? If it's happening all the time that shouldn't be too difficult.

Why is free movement an issue? We need people to come here and work that's well documented, the worry is that people will leave here due to brexit and the NHS and other sectors will struggle as a result... What's the alternative, unfree movement?
Employ people abroad to get around our wage laws and bring them here on temporary visas to work?

Will that impact us more positively?... not enough people are really thinking past the 'free movement' fear of johnny foreigner scaremongering we have in every election.

Yes Professionals will come to work
in the New UK,
under proper controls.

On work visas yes, so how will that impact on secure employment in the UK. And what of unskilled workers?

Don't worry Bots, the Tories want to raise retirement age to 75 so it's all good.
