Election Year or Fear!

[ramAnag]

What you say about the Tories I won't deny. Though when it comes to **** stirring a government, you win the gold sunshine

But look at what you've said.
Liars, crooks.

I think in 8 weeks the pattern has already been set for a repeat of that. If you want to deny that, and need a list , I'll gladly give it.

Thank you…but I had four**** years…or at least from 2019!

Feel free.

I will feel free. It doesn't look good does it?
From our fully costed and accounted manifesto?
Not only was everyone lied to over finance, we now have policies beeing implemented that weren't even in the bloody manifesto.

Every time one pops up, I'm going to rant about it, just like you did. Lets how long you keep defending them.

Maybe I could do a better job, Swale calls me thicky,
But if Rayner, who left school with more kids than qualifications can be deputy leader, it sounds easy?

Go ahead Tricky…you’ll have to go a bit to catch up with the likes of - amongst others - Chris Pincher, Imran Khan, Peter Bone, Scott Benton, William Wragg, Neil Parish, David Warburton, Charlie Elphick, Matt Hancock, Dominic Cummings and, of course, the liar supreme…good old Boris…but feel free, you rant away.

What Swale calls you has absolutely nothing to do with me. We’re not a double act, although I agree with much of what he says and I think he makes a great deal of sense, infinitely more than you, but I don’t do ‘name calling’ and he’s not alone is he…I mean only this morning our moderator was calling him Sweardale. It’s a bit like the Tories…the ‘leader’ sets the tone… .

I’m not a massive fan of Rayner myself, but I suspect most people will find your comments enormously patronising. She may not have gone down the most conventional of routes, have northern vowels and drop a few h’s…but, to the best of my knowledge, she hasn’t broken the law, bullied or abused anyone and seems rather more in touch with ordinary people than the likes of Rees-Mogg.

My tone may not be to your liking but I am paying a bit more attention now rA, witness a post being deleted last week for racial stereotyping. As for that nickname, it was meant as a bit of fun but if one person on the board is offended by it, I won't use it again, despite it relating to someone who managed to answer a recent question by describing the questioner as 'racist, xenophobic and bigotted', without actually answering the question. As I said, I'll not use the nickname again, and I think I'll include not allowing insulting nicknames in my new 'tone'. I'm guessing that'll mean a lot more deleted posts but hey ho thanks for the suggestion

Just because you call someone something doesn’t make it a ‘nickname’ and it’s not a question of whether your tone is to my ‘licking’ or not.

I’ve no idea which or whose post was deleted last week but I agree with MA’s point last week. Tempers may become frayed from time to time but we’re all adults and we ALL - especially you as moderator - should be a bit above the use of derogatory name calling. I wasn’t offended by it, just thought it was inappropriate…from a moderator.

On the other hand if someone behaves in a way which is ‘racist, xenophobic and/or bigoted’ or for that matter ‘naive’ or ‘idealistic’ or ‘arrogant’ - as you described me last week…then so be it. Fair play to call it out…imo.

Personally, I never resort to name calling so I’ll remain unaffected.

…or even ‘liking’. Most certainly not a Freudian slip.
