I'm a Leaver and I also do not want Farage anywhere negotiations with the US. He and Trump have ignored diplomatic protocol and effectively ridden roughshod over our two countries' democratic traditions. Farage does not represent any constituency in this country and is therefore not in any way...

Yes indeed, especially when combined with the Soul music show on Radio Suffolk. Perfect Sunday evening (No Alan Partridge jokes; he is Radio Norfolk :) )

Indeed, Cameron made positive contributions to our society especially with gay marriage. It could be argued that it is actually easier for progressive policies to be introduced when the Tories are in Government as they can build a consensus of their own supporters to reduce opposition. It's just...

By your definition I would hope to be called a liberal ! I do think though that those positive attributes in your first paragraph can be used to describe people across the political spectrum. There is though a distinction between ones take on political issues that comes from a fundamentally...

Yes, that's capitalism...survival of the fittest, strength wins, use finance to get your own way...

TBF highflyer has a point. They are using the capitalist tool of finance to make their point. No tory or liberal should object to such tactics.

Yeah, I can't really argue with that. I am just finding it difficult to see this debate away from the context of well off people telling less well off people that they are stupid.

:smile: OK, I will have a read ( just once). I blame YOU if I turn into a racist, bootboy, Trump supporter !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :jester::jester:

How could I forget cunning f, an interesting and entertaining poster whose views would once have been commonplace but are now marginalized by the liberal takeover. What particularly interests me is that the Liberal party itself has failed to capitalize on the upsurge of liberal values. I think...

It has already weakened Labour in my opinion. I agree it is perhaps not directly related to the Daily Mail issue but one could say that this is another example of an issue of interest to the chattering class liberals but not to the type of people for whom the Labour Party was formed. Scotland is...

That's a really interesting question that probably deserves its own thread. The term is used interchangeably because people of a progressive view are confused so it's no surprise that those on the right can't understand. I would say the reason is that there are very few actual left wingers...

There are lots of newspapers I haven't read (the Mirror and the Times were the only ones I ever bothered with). People I know read the Mail and they are ordinary people, if that helps. I am not going to try to tell them they are not reading the 'correct' newspaper because I might not like its...

Being progressive is a very good thing. Allying with multinationals and attempting to censor newspapers is a bad thing. If Lego don't want to advertise in the Mail they should act on that and not renew their contract. I'm not sure why they should tell the world other than as part of their public...

I have never bought the Daily Mail nor even read it. I am completely indifferent. This constant agitation against this newspaper seems to me to be more a coded attack on ordinary people (the readership). It's just metropolitan,middle class,snobbery.

It's becoming a common theme; the alliance of capitalist multinationals and their liberal cheerleaders.
