    The police couldnt give out the details straightaway because the suspect was under age.

    But why do you or anyone else need to know all the details about a suspect whos safely in custody?

      Love the way you've put your own spin on somebody else's post and given yourself a get out by putting a question mark at the end.

      If elite wants to spell out what he means I'm sure he's perfectly capable of doing so, should he wish.

        I certainly didn't mean what he was inferring, I was saying that Farage is making uncosted pledges to win votes.

        He wouldn't be the first to do it, and he wouldn't be the first to gain power by doing it.

          Ever since I can remember the party and leader in opposition promise the holy grail only to come up with the excuse it was a lot worse than we thought so we will have to break our promises. They don?t actually say break our promises that but that?s what they do.
          Opposition is easy.

            What was I implying? I was making direct reference to the fact which you went on to precisely confirm in post 4773, that it wasn't costed and I suggested something to contribute to that end.

              I haven't put my own spin on anything. It's obvious that you are perhaps too dim to understand that the observation was that Farage had not said how it would be paid for, I addressed that.

                But what you suggested was entirely your opinion and definitely not "what I was driving at".

                You should have made that clearer.

                  I saw a speech by Starmer of him in opposition, slagging the Tories over a rumour that they wanted to abolish the winter fuel payment, he's a fking snake.

                    You've just confirmed that it's exactly what you meant! Why do you think I referenced ways to cut expenditure?

                    'I was saying that Farage is making uncosted pledges to win votes.'

                      You ended your post with:

                      "we could just stop paying for migrants to stay in hotels and buying them phones and driving lessons and having doctors on tap to pay for it which is what I think you're driving at"?

                      Just making it clear that they are your thoughts and not mine.

                        Defeated by your own words and still denying it. The thrust of my comment was what you confirmed above regarding the funding of the policy despite yet you seem incapable of admitting that.

                        Being so argumentative, all the time, must come under one of the spectra?

                          It's pretty obvious what I said, I clearly said his pledges were uncosted and that he was promising the earth to win votes. I'm not denying that, I just didn't want to be linked to your proposed solution.

                          Now that's cleared up, I don't think there's any more to be said.

                            Well that didn't take long, incident in Leicester, 31 year old man from Leicester held on charge of gbh by dangerous driving, police refusing to release his ethnicity apparently.

                              What evidence do you have for the police 'refusing' to release his ethnicity 'apparently'.

                              All they've done is for people not to speculate. That's it .
