Hmm. I think you'll find that Farage haters can find no good in what Farage does. So I fail to see why you make the point. Personally, I love the fact that he helped make leave possible. As for the rest, I am sure I feel a mixture of things as some of the time I agree, some of the time I don't...
Well I agree about the double standards of the papers. However I don't agree with the vilification of Corbyn for 'dancing' nor can I get angry about Farage and whether he was , 'doing the right thing' or not. This country is going the way of 1984 whereby every little action translates into shock...
That's why I said 'many'. Several people on my Facebook were suggesting that it was a disgrace that Farage wasn't involved and also there were some on NSC who were arguing the same thing. I imagine that is fairly representative of the more outlandish sections of the remain vote. Much like some...
Yes, it's funny to see the Farage haters get excited as he wasn't there. Had he been there, imagine the complaints. It was the same with Brexit. Just before the vote, no remainers wanted Farage anywhere near power. After the referendum, many wanted him to be involved in the negotiations. You're...
Our system is doomed if we carry on like we are at present. I didn't say that we weren't very much better off than most places where the migrants are coming from, that is why I have sympathy with them.
I agree. You highlight lack of mature discussion. You are correct that good people remain quiet for fear that they will be overruled and castigated by those to the left and the right. We are now in an unusually strange situation. Decades of political correctness is kind of enduring, or at least...
I agree with much of your reasoning. But my point is, capitalism is failing all over the world. We cannot simply keep consuming as we are and increasing our numbers and expect no repercussions. Our model for success is a disaster and it's only going to get worse if we keep on the way we are. The...
1.2 million extra since 1985. That's over the age of 65. I think the other 6-7 million speaks for itself. Ironically, the older people you suggested should be pushed over the cliff mostly voted Brexit and many remainers and young people made much of that.
Very good. Spot on about much of the current rubbish circulating ATM. I must admit I don't know who it is. My guess is a DJ in London? He, er, puts the point across quite strongly.
Love the quote ''Instead of persuading people to vote, she just courted celebrity endorsements as if the...
Unfortunately, the unwillingness of the ruling political class to contemplate restriction of immigration has allowed the more extreme to get a voice. I am very pleased that we have Brexit, but I am very concerned about the large swing to the right. Apologists for high immigration are still...
I am not the least interested in a snapshot of immigration. The simple fact is that there are too many people here in a small island with limited resources. I don't care what colour or race the people are either. We are so much more crowded in England than Germany or France or Spain who have far...
Thanks, and yes, I don't find much to commend the daily mail at all, I am worried about press freedoms in general and that is why I am sticking up for it.
Some posters think it's a good thing and fine. However it isn't individual democracy that has caused the removal of Lego as a sponsor, it's...
So Lego made a conscientious decision and it was nothing to do with a pressure group?
Perhaps they'll make a conscientious decision to stop selling Lego in Pakistan then as I don't recall the daily mail calling for executions, even in their most vile moments.
Not this again, the leave campaign could not possibly say what would happen because they were not in a position to do so. If they were a political party and in power, then yes, they could have. But they weren't. The referendum was fought on a simple question, stay or leave. No-one was asked do...
Of course people have the right to campaign for things they believe in. But this sets a dangerous precedent in that a relatively small pressure group can alter a policy of a large company with huge financial implications, especially if that company is part of the free press.
Your Brexit...
