Of course people will always differ, but that isnt what you said which is why I didn't agree. I agree with what you just said, which is why I now agree.
The only reason I mentioned democracy etc, is not everyone agrees on everything, so some one who voted Labour has every right to say "see, I was right" when Tories mess it up. Agreed? Same with every other scenario.
That's all I'm saying, if the majority or minority are proved wrong, the minority or majority have to hold their hands up and say that they were wrong.
@ Nick....You are always defending SISU. When ever anyone (Especially me) have a gripe about SISU, Fisher, Septic, etc,etc. I don't think there is anyone on this forum who "Excuses" SISU more than You, Grenduffy, Torchy, canyouhearthedrums. and half a dozen more. It's pathetic the way you "Come to their aid" at every chance you get.

For someone clearly intelligent, you often miss very simple things. What did I say then?

Surely as a democratic society, those in the minority follow the majority, and then if the majority are proved wrong, the minority can be smug about it?
So now we've sorted that we're all voting Labour?
You said:
To me that reads that as this country is democratic then you think that people in the minority should "follow" the majority and if it goes to shit at least they can say "i told you so". I am not sure how that translates to what it finally ended up as.
There's a shockI told a little fib in that last post.........................It's my RIGHT hand not left.
You obviously only read that part. Add on the bit at the end of that quote and it's clearly not that.
To be fair to you, maybe follow wasn't the best word. Have to go along with might be better. It's taken 3 or 4 pages but at least you got what I was saying in the end
Things are so much easier to explain in real conversationif you get what I mean
So just say "Why don't people who think the boycott won't work not go in as a test for one game, if it doesn't make a difference they can be smug". Simple and saves messing about doesnt it

@ turlykerd.....I've holidayed quite a lot in Florida over the last 20 years, and up till now(Touch Wood) never been caught in one yet....Seeing as you live in Florida, I'll give you a little clue where I'll be...Polo Trace Golf & CC. You must know where that is.
Had a letter through off some smug MP begging for a vote, was ideal as I needed some paper to light a fire in the garden!
If Scotland bugger off it's unlikely Labour will win an election in the near future.
Would of had more respect if you had light the fire in the Houses of Parliament.
Nonsense.
Scotland would've changed the result of either one or two elections since the war. That's a complete myth.
On topic: as usual I think Nick's missing the point on the minority/majority thing.
We're looking for collective action. This is closer to a war than a general election. People talk about the majority simply because if we're ALL going to do something, it's easier to change the smaller number of people's actions than the larger numbers.
It's nothing to do with "the majority is always right" or whatever other strawman keeps being used.
