Not at all mate, just on the wind up as usual. Now the GE has been called I should probably retreat again and leave this conversation for the grown ups
Not at all mate, just on the wind up as usual. Now the GE has been called I should probably retreat again and leave this conversation for the grown upsOf course its all relative, I think but don't know but I think Rob feels kind of left behind?
By events either natural or legislated for!
Non sequitur of the day.I don’t think it’s animosity to a flag, it’s the idea that you can ONLY be patriotic in that way.
Like not paying taxes or adhering to speed limits?
Are you Jimmy Carr, or Jeremy Clarkson.
Voting should be a duty, not just a "right" as you wokerati like to go on about.
Fucking snowflakes, going on about how representative democracy is not for them.
Nice invective.Oh do give over with the "snowflake/wokerati" rubbish. If anything you're the one being overly precious here by endlessly banging on about it - and those phrases are really just meaningless gibberish intended to insult.
Anyway, people fought and died for our right to protest too. On that basis I demand that you go on a protest next weekend, otherwise you are disrespecting their memory. No?
It's such a poor argument, the "fought and died for" one.
Regardless, I can just as reasonably state that Peterloo etc. was a fight for the _right_ to vote, not the compulsion to do so. Or was that in the small print on the placards?
Bloody hell you are patronising.Non sequitur of the day.
Give yourself a pat on the back.
Nice invective.
However...
You are wrong
I am right
Don't bother replying
Typical Tory language.No invective mate, that's all from you with the usual meaningless 'snowflake' bullshit.
Clearly you've figured out this is an argument you can't win via rational debate so you're down to playground level now.
A bit poor, but if it shuts you up on it for a bit, that's got to be a win for me I guess.
Would you like a medal for second place, or would that be too 'woke' for you? x
How far would you go in enforcing this law out of interest? Fine? Prison?Like not paying taxes or adhering to speed limits?

Thirty quid fine.How far would you go in enforcing this law out of interest? Fine? Prison?

Show your patriotism by making sure not one of your citizens is homeless, not by getting a hard on for a flag.
I don’t think it’s animosity to a flag, it’s the idea that you can ONLY be patriotic in that way.
Nice pithy comment, but complete bollocks.You'd end up with the uk equivalent of the donkey vote.
Every constituency in the country would have a candidate called Aaron Aardvark on it!
Typical Tory language.
It's not about winning and losing my dear.
It's about right and wrong.
Crack on with your 'medal' chat darling.
I'll concentrate on fighting the good fight.
I honestly don't think I'm patronising, but I WOULD have put a comma after "hell" my dear. XBloody hell you are patronising.
Voting. Good. Paying tax. Good.So as previous, you've got no actual rational argument.
You're not fighting the good fight, you're walking away from it!
Make your case for compulsory voting if you've got one.
I've got no problem with having a reasonable discussion on it, but don't think a handful of cheap slurs and a circular insistence that you're right because you're right somehow proves your case.
If the vote was between two fascist parties would voting still be better than not?Voting. Good. Paying tax. Good.
Not voting. Bad. Not paying tax. Bad.
Is that simple enough for you?
Another non sequitur.If the vote was between two fascist parties would voting still be better than not?
Would it not be a comma after "hell"?I honestly don't think I'm patronising, but I WOULD have put a comma after "hell" my dear. X
Voting. Good. Paying tax. Good.

Given your advocacy for voting, and the importance of doing so - your condescending attitude will put far more people off than anything we say.Meanwhile, let the grown ups crack on with having a debate.
My wife thinks there’s an asteroid, or another pandemic coming.Rumours that something big and bad is about to happen, I've heard a water company or big university going bust, and that is why he's gone now to try and pin it on Labour.

Was it Dowden that said stock up for a disaster yesterday?
It is, my missus works for the Civil Service, she said it will be announced soon.General Election imminent?

It would have had more clout if I'd actually hit send earlierThanks for confirming mate.
