    [News] Victory for the anti-fascists

    a quick throw-away line without any real evidence. How on earth can you possibly be in a position to make such an allegation?

    [News] Victory for the anti-fascists

    Yes, all very well, but as we all know, the word fascist to describe political opponents is banded about far too easily by the far left, and can really only be described as bigoted.

    [/B] Are you any better, if you seriously believe that the neighbours thought of the public interest. They resorted to that when the Police decided no action was needed, as they knew that to give the recording to the Guardian would then be the only way of engulfing him with negative publicity...

    I was actually steering a neutral line, but I think that you might have missed that.

    Yes, my thoughts entirely. It all sounds rather too convenient. But Ok - the lefties are having their go, and enjoying his discomfort, and to be fair, had it been ,say, Corbyn, the other mob would have had their go! All the posters on here talking about relationship problems, as they have never...

    [Politics] Proportional Representation

    [/B] All very well in theory - but what is right exactly? Your mention of the few gives the game away and I can't help feeling that your final mention of 51% contradicts what you actually say you want. Presumably you want to deny the 51% the right to have what they voted for? That is...

    Yes, my fault -the computer crashed at the vital time, and distracted me (honestly!!)

    Oh, come on - rubbishing an opposing view is hardly a modern phenomenon.

    I know that you don't teach but even so that is not an excuse to continually jump to conclusions and ignore what is written - I said that the reasons were many-fold, as they indeed are - buy you prefer to say that I stated that it is a major cause, which I didn't and then, having convinced...

    [/B] What's it like in Soton? you can't move for Brownshirts here in Hastings.

    [Politics] Proportional Representation

    Yes, I see what you are saying, but it is somewhat naive to assume that with PR or whatever system you want, MPs won't shout at each other, and also work together for the country -they will still be of the same ilk, with allegiances that sadly mean that the party will always come first...

    Are you totally sure about this? His wording may well have been unhelpful, but I am pretty sure that he was not responsible for her being imprisoned. You need to be rather careful with this sort of accusation.

    The reasons for people using food banks are many-fold, one of which is the divorce rate causing untold damage to families and children. Yes, that may be true about the divorce rate, though your assertion is conjecture, but if I could make myself clearer, the amount of people separating who are...

    And your evidence for this future vision is . .?

    Yep, they seem to be booming economically, so far as I can gather.

    [Politics] Our next prime minister BBC 1

    [/B] What about the divorce rate? Might that mean that a breadwinner leaves home after furious rows and leaves, usually, the woman with kids and no source of income, who is then reliant on foodbanks etc. There are many reasons for the problems that you mention, and yes, government cut-backs have...

    [Politics] Proportional Representation

    Yes, I can see that would be frustrating, but exactly the same happens in reverse in say urban areas where the broad mass of voters will always vote labour. as long as you are consisitent . .

    [Politics] Proportional Representation

    [/B] Yes, more would have voted, but I doubt that would have made the whole situation easier -there would still be the same arguments that it was a close-run thing and attention should be paid to the losers.

    This might be the case in some cases, but given your tendency to write sweeping statements and present it as fact, as you did with the assertion about tax revenues, I doubt whether "too many" have done this and also that it NEVER happened 30 years ago.
