Brexit, for once some facts.

Mind you many of the lefties have been too busy threatening their own MP's causing them to need police protection

.....and engaging in racist behaviour of course.

I'm surprised it's only been one with all the vitriol that's been spouted from both sides of the argument. Mind you many of the lefties have been too busy threatening their own MP's causing them to need police protection

I think that outside of parliament feelings are dying down for the majority of the population. It's very clear now each time they are questioned that they are fed up with the subject and would prefer it to go away.

It's only a small minority like us in here who care any more.

As they themselves declare, Jews are not a race or ethnic group. So any anti-semitism, if it exists in the party, is not racism.

It's discrimination.

If we do get a second vote (and its a big if) then I like this guys thoughts on it, he talks a lot of sense.

As we have seen on here Brexit believers are best left to make up their own minds, mere factual evidence can't budge entrenched ideas.
There are plenty of people who are undecided to talk to.

 

[oldgroaner]

Criticising a person for insulting people, whilst at the same time insulting them within the same post. That's great, can you do it again or something equal to it?

Yours just now wasn't too bad either

I think that statement has actually scraped through the base of the barrel of excuses and into the dirt upon which it stands.

I was thinking about MP David Lammy’s racist rant about Red Nose Day.

Thought for the day

Actually it Did, but now doesn't
We should cancel it as "Not of Merchantable Quality or fit for purpose."

The discussion had been on anti-semitism so I replied factually on that subject citing the Jewish view. Your above response is totally unwarranted.

And how am I to know what you were thinking of if you don't state it? I'm not psychic.

And I don't agree, Lammy is absolutely right.

A lesson for our spineless weak-kneed government on how to Walk Away from dictators..

"You have to be prepared to walk!"
Trump gives Theresa May a lesson in negotiation, walking away from an intransigent dictator, whilst May embraces hers.

 

[Woosh]

like coming back with nothing to show for his effort?

Think of the air miles!

but of course a nutcase could appear on either side of the argument.

That has been scientifically proven to not be the case. Something in the genes of right wing fanatics apparently. Left wing fanatics do bad stuff in groups but not as loners.

 

[oldgroaner]

us being in the EU is like a woman/man being in an abusive relationship, and when asked why she/he didn't leave says they stopped for the sake of the kids, and because they did not know how to survive. In the meantime getting battered instead of plucking up the courage to leave and maybe finding a much better life. Of course the abusive partner is always in the background making dire threats about how hard it will be after leaving

You need a new comedy writer, that lot is simply rubbish

very easy to criticize but at least he did get in talks which was a lot more than Saint Obama did

This intransigent dictator?. Is it the chair of the ERG or of the DUP?.

What?

You make less and less each post.

I agree with you.

 

[jonathan.agnew]

It's more than extraordinary, its fantastic.

I usually find that the most intelligent people have a gift for taking a complex situation and effortlessly breaking it down into simple and more easily understood chunks. I find Danidl does quite the reverse. He takes a relatively simple situation, adds in irrelevant complications and then re-assembles the entire package into something which is much more complicated than it was at the outset. He then tries to explain his newly manufactured complexity using unnecessarily obscure words and language. This causes him to confuses himself resulting in an incoherent mess on the pages of this thread. I quite like it for its comedy value.

But returning to your original statement, yes, I think he does lack self awareness and is consumed by his own self importance, which is also extremely funny.

Whats with the sudden outbreak of trolling?it comes across as pathetic attempts to compensate for fundamental lack of self esteem.

Could is indeed the word. Have you observed ukips leadership theatricals? They excel at producing nutcases.
