I'm sorry, but I hate this retconning of the likes of Kenneth Clarke as somehow a better Tory.

He served in the cabinet under Thatcher.
He was happy to serve under Thatcher.
Let that sink in.
I'm generally aligned with your worldview @shmmeee ... but seriously, "a better class of Tory"?He was a better class of Tory. He may have been a c**t but he’s a c**t who could string a sentence together to explain his beliefs and at least believed in the principles of Parliament.
I despise everything Thatcher stood for, but even she had some qualities.I'm generally aligned with your worldview @shmmeee ... but seriously, "a better class of Tory"?
How low can you go?
Death row
What a worker know
It’s shocking how awful the government is. Even more shocking is that the only people they have to replace them are equally if not even more awful. The Tories need wiping out at the next GE if only so they can start from a clean sheet. There’s not one that you would trust to babysit your children.I despise everything Thatcher stood for, but even she had some qualities.
Now, we've got a warmed up version of Thatcherism but delivered by people who you wouldn't be surprised to see eating crayons.

She was a strong leader. Such a shame that personality was allayed to the most godawful snobbish economic policy.More retconning.
What qualities?

What's happened?
Things go up, things go down.
Lungs this time.
Still got two!
They reckon they've fixed me this time rather than just doing running repairs.
Going to get to respiratory today if there's a bed free and then out in a day or two.

Best of luck, Philosoraptor
Ohh, I would love some if you have any going spare.Cheers, over the worse now. Just getting myself off the tinned oxygen.
Leaves you on a lovely high.Ohh, I would love some if you have any going spare.
Just feel obliged to point out that not having a science education doesn't make you a conspiracy theorist any more than having one - being a nutter makes you a conspiracy theorist!Actually had a science education as well. Say what you like about Thatcher and her mental economic beliefs, she wouldn’t fall for the conspiracy nut nonsense that fills the current Tory Party.
Get well soon.Things go up, things go down.

Shanti De Corte, 23, survived an ISIS terror attack in 2016 but was never able to recover from the trauma of the incident, and eventually sought to euthanise herself through legal means in Belgium.metro.co.uk
Werid thing is I am going to need a few months before I become fighting fit again so I might as well start testing out home advantage on Elo and Glicko-2 and posts the results for all to see.
I have the correct settings
All the other stuff will be up to date hopefully by next weekend.
Got a busy few weeks ahead of myself when I get back.
Christ that's depressing. Not sure I agree with that tbh, doesn't feel right to me. Others may feel differently.Not strictly politics but after reading got to put it somewhere.
