Just contradiction? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ohDB5gbtaEQ

Brighton value him at €18m to €20m, but Juventus believe that they can get him for a smaller fee due to his contract situation and Brighton’s comfortable position in the league table. Ha ha ha ha

I'm sorry, is this the 5 minute argument, or the full half hour?

Yes you do Like it or not. You just did it again.

And the republic of Mauritius. You support my point. Stability is based on a complex mix of history, colonial past, economics, personalities, democracy. Not whether or not you have an elected HoS

The most stable, and probably most successful, country in Africa is...The Republic of Botswana (hands up, I knew Botswana was a stable country but didn't know it was a republic until google told me)

You genuinely think that a managed move, by democratic means to an elected head of state in the UK would lead to revolution and civil war? It could work the other way round I grant you (and as I suspect is often the case) whereby an extreme level of instability/crisis leads to a change in...

I can write reams and reams of dull worthy arguments, and you've summed it all up perfectly in a single sentance Do you work in communications of some kind?

Bit of a silly argument, as I suspect you know. Revolutions. coups etc happen because of instability, economic crises, historic tensions and conflicts not because a country has an elected head of state. France, Ireland, the US (until recently anyway) and many others have done just fine. As...

This has been my assumption for some time now. He's a useful 'sh*t magnet'. Let as much of it stick to him, keeping the heir apparent clean. And then discard him when the time is right. Which is why Labour are making a bad strategic error in my opinion, focussing their fire on Johnson and...

Hreaded in the direction of acknowledging that access to good broadband is no longer a luxury, to be left to 'the market' but a public good that we all need in order to engage fully and productively in society? Yup

BTW, this poll will be far from representative. Corbyn's main achievement (or main crime in many eyes apparently) was engaging younger people in politics in relatively large numbers. Younger people who had been alienated from mainsteam politics for decades. Who were excited to have someone...

What? How does this even make sense? Do you understand that the system by which you link to the internet is different from 'information on the internet'? The latter is indeed abused but a) that is irrelevant to the Labour proposal and b) the abuse is enabled and carried out primarily by...

Maybe Big companies using vast wealth to wine and dine politicians to ensure they have their ear when needed, or putting massive resources into influencing policy through various means. Yes. Legal corruption. But what about when a group (say representing the families of the victims of the...

In 2017 Corbyn increased the Labour share of votes by 10% and won an additional 30 seats overall Those seats lost iby Labour were mainly in Scotland. The Red Wall held up fine. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/election-2017-40176349 In the lead up to the 2019 elections red wall Labour MPs were...

Decent Wifi to be treated as a necessary public service rather than a profit making opportunity you say? So that poorer kids without good wifi don't lose out educationally, when teaching goes on line during a pandemic? Outrageous Idea. Communism!

There was little or no evidence that Corbyn himself was/is an anti-semite (though plenty will believe what they want to believe) I would never have supported him if I genuinely believed that he was. Anyone who knows me would know that. There was however evidence of anti-semitism in parts of the...
