O/T:- The CV19 Legacy

[pingu_pie]

The day of reckoning will come if the government are to blame for everything you say they are and then Mr Starmer will have his day in the sunshine. But no matter what this government does the same suspects will criticise and it will be the same when Labour get in. So predictable.

I don't disagree with you here, up to a point. The thing is to me though is that when Labour do get in, despite being a lefty I'm damn sure going to criticise them when they F up too. It's been a while since we have been in that position, but I suspect that what is viewed on here as a lefty triad of Elite, BFP and Sid (I should post more, I've never been in a gang ) will be much the same, simply based on their lack of fawning over Corbyn. I may be wrong, and one, two, or all of them turn into Keir Starmer fanboys, but for myself I fully intend to have the next Labour government held to account properly. And that's what is not happening at the moment with the right wing on here (and let's face it we are all only talking to each other on here).

People ought to be able to follow their own political ideology and still be able to notice how poorly suited Johnson is for his role, ditto Patel, Raab, and, yes, Corbyn and Diane Abbott. They should also be able to note how crushingly, dangerously awful folk like Cummings and JRM are, just as Campbell and Mandelson were before them.

Just want to check - BFP is Trump in this scenario, right??!!?

Correct. I once saw him down the match wearing his red 'Make America Great' hat.

There’s no way I want to be Trump.

Hmm. That makes me a US Army Master Sergeant then.

From which I can only assume you mean you have a great deal of respect for me and agree with what I wrote...

That makes two of us!

Or, more likely, around six billion of us.

I knew he would prove you correct, I just didn't think it would be in the very next post!

Just to make his reply to me a bit more challenging, he has to avoid the terms 'loser' and 'gambling addict'.

The other aspect, of course, is that my first few lines made him bored. You know, the bit where I talk about trying to treat each other as fellow human beings, with respect, understanding, and dignity.

Demonstrating - as if further evidence had ever been required - what an utterly pointless individual he is.

Even my view of common humanity has its limits, see.

No worries Pingu, all part of the service here at your local, friendly NCM. Honest.

Bless ya, Swale. You do a grand job - strange that NCM is actually helping keep some folk sane during this, isn't it?

Don't let Swale fool you, he's paid a king's ransom to police this board.

I am not affiliated to any party I tend to vote for the party I feel is best of a bad bunch at the time. I agree with you about Johnson and co and Corbyn etc. that is why I didn't vote in the last election no one was worth my vote imo. But I am not in the anti everything camp because I don't like a particular government.
I must admit I have been impressed with Starmer at present, he seems to be saying all the right things, only time will tell. Mind you my old dad would be turning in his grave if he knew the Labour leader was a lawyer and with a title also.

Unfortunately I'm paid in Florist tickets so I can only spend my earnings in the smallest room.

I'm not sure if Starmer is any good or he simply couldn't be any worse.
