Good. We are in agreement then. Glad to hear you are in support.
-
Wouldn't he be quite similar to Ross Stewart?
-
I hope not. Not because I want us to sign him but because he's definitely not worth that and I don't want big clubs to be able to offload average players to other teams simply because they are a big club.
-
The question I asked is very simple. Do you support giving people more of a voice with proportional representation, even if that means giving more of a voice to people you disagree with? Your answers so far seem to suggest you don't but you're welcome to clarify to say that's wrong.
-
Giving a voice to those you disagree with isn't a bad thing. Mentalists like you believe some absolutely insane things but you deserve representation and proportional representation giving you and people like you a voice is a positive even if I disagree. Can you say the same for those you disagree with?
-
Lambert got the closest in the modern era and even he is far behind to be honest.
-
I mean he didn't did he. He was never getting close to MLT status but he certainly could have had something like Rickie has here where he is doing live shows with Adam Blackmore. When he finally retired he isn't going to her club legend status like some of our top players and he won't be getting that anywhere else which for a player must sting a little even if he has his millions to comfort himself. On second thoughts he probably doesn't give a fuck.
-
Of course he did a job for us but you absolutely can compare player popularity across eras. It's a nonsense to suggest that Lallana was even close to MLT.
-
Proper democracy means giving a voice to those democratically elected even if you disagree with them. The main two parties love people like you because you want to silence people you disagree with.
-
I don't think it will happen but it should do. Would eliminate the lack of engagement and sense that your vote doesn't matter almost immediately.
-
They should push for proportional representation. Nobody likes our current politics because you get this centrist blob to try to appeal to everyone that doesn't stand for anything. Proportional representation means that suddenly your vote matters again and it's worth voting for people you actually believe in rather than tactical voting or having no one to vote for if you're in a safe constituency. How does a lefty feel in Clacton at the moment knowing they have no one to vote for? Or a more right leaning voter in Liverpool? It's not right.
-
Yep. Zero seats please.
-
They really aren't. They are typing some words onto a screen. Some people aren't thrilled at the prospect of his return, either because they think he does t have much to offer or due to how he has acted previously. It's perfectly OK if you feel differently. You aren't going to change any minds with what you're doing.
-
I took the unwise decision to agree with him on something yesterday. More fool me.
-
No because I can't be bothered to counter your idiotic and disingenuous jibes for the fitieth time. Have a good time soggy x
-
Can't be bothered.
-
Really odd that we don't want to splash some cash for a really solid prem keeper. Really wouldn't be that much relatively.
-
A nonsense. I have no trouble at all calling out for example some of the batshit politicians on the left alongside all manner of terrible politicians and 'personalities' on the right. I've also voted for parties on the left and right of British politics because like I said I'm not wedded to a particular ideology.
-
No one is going to sue you know but what they will do is relentlessly mock and deride you in response and also point to posts like this when other posters ask why you provoke such reactions. As egg said already, the Tories have moved largely to the centre right and Reform is mostly filling the gap that they vacated. Reform UK are clearly on the right of politics. Associating them with the BNP or similar is the preserve of either simpletons or jokers.
-
I have zero interest in debating individual policies with someone as disingenuous as James O'brien but with even less intelligence. The point is that those aren't the policies of a far right political party. No one serious would be suggesting that reform are far right extremists.
-
He didn't play or contribute half as much as many people thought he would. Took a squad place from someone who may have had a greater influence in helping us stay up. I think that if you ran a poll, the vast majority would have considered him a poor signing on balance.
-
Ditto replacing the ehrc with a British bill of rights. Extremist far right parties wouldn't bother.
-
I wasn't talking about their voting record. You've labelled people as far right on here which are incredibly serious accusations that aren't backed up with anything.
-
No I don't recall attacking you when you spoke out against Robinson and Hopkins. I said I paid little to no attention to these people and at the time I had little idea who Tommy Robinson was. Unlike you I wasn't terminally online at the time. I'd say theres been an awful lot of terrible behaviour over the past decade in politics and I've seen some disgusting example on both sides of the political divide. I'm happy to criticise those of all political persuasions regardless of politics if I believe they've done something wrong because I'm not affiliated to a particular party or ideology. This is unlike some on here who simply respond with whataboutery from the tories. Not everyone and fair play to those who can call out bad behaviour from those they mostly align with politically.
-
What does nearest political party to something like the bnp even mean? They aren't the bnp. The greens are mostly loons but if the communist party of Great Britain packed it in, I wouldn't be describing them as the nearest political party to something like the communist Party of Great Britain. I'd be a grown up and not try to throw around slurs in such a haphazard manner. You claim to have had some fairly responsible jobs in your life yet your attempts to associate parties you don't like with the actual hard right is laughable, demeans you and suggests you are lacking in nuance at best and thick as mince at worst.
