    But... isn't that the supposed exact problem? Labour are too focused on the middle classes and not the working man?

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Yet you extol the virtues of the people that have given you an effective pay decrease of one fifth during their time in office. And you wonder why some people are exasperated at trying to work out exactly what other parties are meant to do to stop people like you voting for the Tories.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Hard to disagree with that, even though I find it a sad indictment of where we find ourselves as a nation. Sod the policy, get in some generic slogans that people can interpret however they want and someone in charge you just can't take your eyes off. Having them involved in a scandal or two...

    Baka departs

    Best of luck for the future to him and hope he gets himself a club soon. Hope he can learn to make more of what he has in his armoury.

    Baka departs

    I'm sure it would. Almost everyone would thank him for his efforts and wish him all the best for the future regardless of if they felt he wasn't quite up to Championship standard. And anyone who came on just to have a go at him would be an utter dickhead.

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    So how do you intend to arrange the desks in the classroom then? Classic 4:4:2? 4:3:3, 3:5:2? Or you just gonna have 1 up front for the teachers pet/bad influence?

    That campaign was from when labour were in govt.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Yes, but you've literally just criticised the opposite approach of 'vote for us for a brighter future' as nothing but a soundbite. Which is the Tory go-to. Remember 'Labour Isn't Working'? Exactly the same message of negativity in the current governing party - lapped up.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Not really. Tories set the budget so Labour at regional level will be hampered by that, as we've seen. Blamed for cutting services - had to because because Tories cut their funding. And given that the Tories are 'nicer' to Tory run councils than Labour ones it's just going to get worse isn't it?

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    But much of the Tory stuff is just soundbites. Labour have been criticised for being negative and pushing how bad the Tories are, now you're saying when they post positive stuff about what they offer it's just meaningless soundbites. Has there been a more meaningless soundbite than 'Get Brexit...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    You have to see the negative of some of these as well though. The austerity caused huge job losses, hardly great for the wroking man. But hey, the debt we were amassing year on year wasn't quite so much as before, but still high. The Brexit deal may have been done but what actually advantages...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    It's about perception and marketing. The perception of the Labour party is poor and they don't market themselves well, with complicated slogans and focusing on the policy and arguments. Even when the do the three word slogan it's crap and says nothing. 'A New Leadership' says fuck all. The...

    Andy Street has seemed a bit Boris-like in his love of big projects while ignoring some of the smaller stuff.

    Taxi cancelled for Robins

    I still think he's too unwilling to change things during games at times and we definitely suffered in the season from not taking the game to teams in and around us but I think he's learnt over the season and he's become more confident in our abilities and we'll see that next season.

    MF Allen 5.5 Had a short spell playing a bit deeper that he looked better in but had little impact on games. Burroughs 6 Only featured a few times and was filling in. Bit nervous but calmed down after a while. Got a waty to go to be a first teamer but definite potential Eccles 7 Only featured...

    GK Marosi 6 Start of the season when we continued try to play out from the back we got picked off too often. Got injured and didn't look quite the same when he came back. Wilson 6.5 Much better than expected and was willing to clear the ball if necessary. Made some very good saves but far too...

    For politics it would definitely have to be hollow. Maybe chocolate coins just to remind everyone what money feels like. Also have to make sure there was white, milk and dark chocolate available so as not to offend anyone.

    I agree but working on the assumption he will be here next year I can't see us using him any other way unless he shows big improvement over the summer. His shooting from around the box is very good but there so many deficiencies in the rest of his game that at the moment it's the only thing...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    1 thing right, dozens wrong (including stuff that for a Labour leader would see them hounded out of politics). Not just shit policy but obvious corruption, lying and probably breaking the law (again). The reason we had these elections this year and not last is because of the massive fuck-ups he...
