What does this sort of comment really mean? You chatted with someone who clearly knew little of politics, assuming this isn't a throw-away line like your comment about Diane Abbott. I chatted with someone from the South, who only had good things to say about Boris.

A minority of folk is academic and not all are, but that doesn't mean that they are thick. Most folk are graduates of the university of life, and have their feet on the ground. And to think last week someone actually challenged me when I said of all those on NSC who consider themselves to be...

Oh well. Just keep it up, as I really have no interest in Labour ever getting in, and with this sort of arrogance, that is going to be the case. Don't people ever learn -don't the voting figures make you at last think that most folk are perhaps not gullible and capable of reflection and...

Thanks. strangely, I was just going to agree with what you wrote on post 369, notably that one should put ideology aside, and hope for what is the best, despite doubts that one might have. Keep agreeing like this and people will talk . .

Compromise and find a nice warm studio in Burnley .

That would be extremely difficult to prove, as you don't know what would have happened, had we not been in the EU, other than your guess. I won't quibble with your figures, if you say so, then that is fine, but had we not handed money to the EU, to then spend it back on us, might we have been...

Excellent post -hard to disagree with any of this -and I voted remain!

Fascinating comment. Given that Corbyn told us that only the rich will pay for his spending bonanza, then you must be loaded, not that that bothers me in the slightest, by the way. Or is it the case that you are perhaps not so rich, but realise that despite Corbyn's promise that only the rich...

Yes, they are all so thick aren't they? All those thousands who just seem to lack your good sense and undoubted vision.

What of course you really mean is that you are hoping for such an eventuality, irrespective of what happens.

Shame I could not have taken you to see East Germany prior to 1989 - you might not then be so keen. And as to the forces ranged against it -how about simply human nature?

Ideally yes, but then why did they close down?

OK. thanks

I wonder why this is. Sadly, they suffer because of the owners, but if brought up by responsible people, they make for lovely dogs.

Yet last time round, the lefities on here were saying how well JC had done -now they have been justifiably hammered at the polls, it is all the fault of the press.

Christ -next time I look at a paper of which you disapprove, I will have to think about internalised assumptions -is that on the health page?

[/B] Yes, we could pay for the NHS from taxation, but what exactly do you want? For many years I had experience of the German system which is far superior, but costs an awful lot more than the average punter in the UK is prepared to pay. We want it all on the cheap. But if you don't want to pay...

If you take a policy such as free broadband for example, in theory there is not much to criticise. But the general scepticism surely revolves around the eye-watering cost of all his bribes, or policies, depending on your view. Yes, he said it is all costed, but you really have to be naïve if you...
