That's possible of course. She would have very motive in playing down the occasions, so "occasionally" is perhaps deliberately vague. I would also use a flight if I had a son in the US, or anywhere else that is far away, but not sure at all that I would then have the nerve to be lecturing others...
Exactly. It is all part of the general pattern of hypocrisy. Because they are so self-righteous in their world, they think the odd misdemeanour is OK for them, as they are so nice, and say such nice things - until someone challenges them and then the real person emerges.
Instead of the predictable insults, just for once read what others write and be prepared to learn from others' experiences, if they have first-hand knowledge of how life in practice works. The poster was not putting anything down, just pointing out the practical difficulties, which were...
Well, well well, Up you come again -I am amazed that no real insults are thrown, which is your norm in my debates with you. Had you bothered to properly read all the posts, then you would have read that I am appalled at all occasions of mob rule. In this instance it was a left wing mob, but I...
Surely you can't be this naïve -can you? Just swallow what a party spokesperson says because that is what you want to believe -what about those who have not been loud enough to have ben caught voicing anti-Semitism. For the record, I am sure that anti-semitism only applies to a minority of...
Yes, I see the point you are making with some justification - possibly because islamophobia permeates through all sections of society. Yes, left-wingers will say it is all the fault of the right-wing press, and I dare say that is what you will conclude . .get back to SPAG preparation!
Trying genuinely to steer a neutral line - the phobia you mention is not confined to any political party, similarly with anti-Semitism, though the Labour party at present gets accused. I am sure that there are right-wing anti-semites, as there are traditional labour supporters who fear the...
Yes, of course. I don't like Corbyn, as I am sure you know, but he deserves better than to be shouted down. Did you read the first post, where I made it quite clear that one surely has two alternatives, irrespective of political allegiances, namely that you go and listen, or don't go if you know...
Exactly! Of course they exist, sadly. In this case I was pointing out what will happen under Corbyn because it was clearly a left wing protest; and let's face it, hardly the first time. Had it been the other way round, then it would have been reasonable to claim that under the Tories mob rule...
