    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    No but at by elections you have to have policies on everything and are held responsible for everything if you are Labour. If you're Tory you can hide away, put out a vague promise to "level up' and nobody will remember that your party has been in power for 11 years and will vote for you as you...

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Unbelievable that some think their behaviour was "a couple of pissed up lads being dicks", when it is totally disgusting, entitled, toxic behaviour. It's the behaviour of bullies who should be charged with common assault. I dread to think how those lads treat young women after a few drinks.

    Labour leaders are like generals, always planning to fight and win the previous war.

    Transfer Rumour Incoming !!! Ben Sheaf Confirmed

    Is this the first time a new signing cannot hold up the new shirt? Even though the first signing is late in the day it's still earlier than the kit reveal. Still, let's content ourselves with pictures of new signage ...

    Things that annoy you

    The leadership team at my last place used to talk like that and then got upset if they heard their positive messaging had been met with cynicism. What's wrong with these negative people they said. They never got that it was the perception that it was only "warm words' but insincere. Those type...

    I think you inadvertently exemplified my point. A woman's affairs would reflect badly on her not her partners. Johnson is seen as "a bit of a lad." A woman leader would be seen as a "slut" or an "old bag" or, at best, a "cougar".

    Labour don't want a female leader. The country isn't ready for a progressive woman. Can you imagine a woman getting the easy ride Johnson gets?

    Am I missing something with Shaw? Maybe he's a left back, but a left wing back? Hope he improves second half.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Labour party is in a mess, no doubt about it. The identity politics is eating them alive by descending into vicious in fighting. No obvious solution and still some way to fall I think. Maybe attempting to unite people will never be popular again. The winners are the Tories who are brilliant at...

    End of Woke News?

    You're right, of course, but unfortunately that's not how human psychology works. If we like someone we give them the benefit of the doubt. We overlook flaws and the reverse is true of those we dislike. To change would be to admit we are poor judges of character - which is too much of a stretch...

    End of Woke News?

    Interesting. Personally never watch news in the morning. I check my phone first thing and family or friends sometimes send me links to stories in the news that I have seen already before bed. I go to sleep around 1am and can't recall any news story that happened overnight barring election nights...

    End of Woke News?

    If that's accurate it's interesting that more people watch morning news than evening news. What exactly do they imagine has happened during the night? Perhaps they are more interested in overseas stories? Is this why morning news discussion points are dominated by opinions and what's in the papers?

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    The gas lighting is now endemic. Nothing to see here. We are delivering on the priorities of the British people, Brexit, Vaccines, world beating yada yada, jibber jabber. Labour would be worse. Look over there - dinghies, illegals, woke, statues being attacked. So depressing.
