But when you look at the toxicity and cognitive lack at the top of the Tory party, the utter paucity of anything vaguely positive in the personality and intellect of the leadership pool, you really wonder how the boots on the ground picking these melts actually think.

It’s often said that it’s only f*cking idiots & millionaires that vote Tory & you should check your bank balance to see which one you are, but I think that’s a little outdated now.
There are huge numbers of folk out there who are utterly miserable and who quite enjoy it. They’re at their happiest complaining about immigrants taking our jobs, immigrants not taking our jobs, free stuff, education not being as brutal as it was in their day, anything that changes (yes, including genders) Socialism, anything that might help other people, anything that smells like socialism & haircuts

The Tories are a perfect party for theses people. They don’t give a sh1t what they get up to, as long as things don’t get better. We can’t have folk enjoying themselves with nice things. Doesn’t matter about debt, fascism, collapsing transport next work, energy crisis, sh1te in public waterways, climate change, tax avoidance & billions in theft. The only thing that matters is people are as miserable as they are. C*nts

But you can't change your gender, and in saying you can you have guaranteed a tory government for ever and ever and ever.

Im going to try and explain this like Father Ted explained small cows to Father Dougal. Gender is a social/cultural construct. Therefor by its very definition, is fluid. It’s what goes on inside your brain. S€x is to do with biology. Your dangly bits, chromosomes n stuff

It’s when the top bit is out of synch with the rest, you’ve got a problem.

As crap as the SNP may actually be in government (debate at your leisure), the Tories having free-rein to pursue their own agenda even if it isn't factually correct is a terrible lack of checks and balances that the BBC is only too happy to facilitate:

It's not me that's got the problem.

You are , of course, wrong about gender.

Male , Female, end of story.

I accept the possibility that folk feel female but they've got a cock and balls.

Shame.

Getting them cut off doesn't make them female though.

Pretending it does guarantees a Tory government in perpetuity, something I've been trying to explain to you for a long time now.

[Mason89]

Putting aside the fact you’re completely wrong, how does a tiny minority of folk just trying to live out their life guarantee Tory governments? You’re going to have to show your working on that one.

[donsdaft]

C'mon, you know the answer to this one really.
In fact you may well look back at Tory governments as being centrist.

Why do some of you guys want the government to run everything? It would be an even bigger sh!tshow than what we have now.

Like most countries what we need is better politicians but I don't see thst happening anywhere.

Because if the Government doesn't "run everything" or at least regulate to some extent the way the economy functions, you end up with self interested @rseholes setting the economic agenda.
Example, because of the Stagecoach monopoly in the Highlands, public transport is a sh1tshow. I refuse to believe any Government could run it worse.
But the "poor service/high prices" model works very well for those odious cu nts Gloag and Soutar.
So the government is happy because there is, nominally, service provision.
A proper Government would run things properly, allow the public not to rely on cars to the same extent and generally enjoy more flexibility.
But this would involve investment, which would involve the wealthy's disproportionately low rate of direct taxation being raised.
So it's obviously a bad idea when your ethos is "free market at any cost".

And tell me how provision of utilities could be any more of a sh1tshow than they presently are?

I don't think you will though, because you're too EDGY.

They should get a good old fashioned socialist like Sadiq Khan into run the transport network. You can see it when you go to the NFL game as long as he’s received more bail out since he’s bankrupted TFL since he’s run it.
