hypochondriac

John McDonnell is a self confessed Marxist so it's not my words it's his and I've outlined clearly why I consider their policies to be extreme. Seems to me that either you know very little yourself or you're just an angry little socialist raging against the dying of the light.

Now we get to the heart of why you started this thread. Pathetic.

Guess you missed the portion of my post where I said these were issues relevant to myself and where I said they were just the few off the top of my head (and where I highlighted the excessive spending as the bit that was particularly extreme) you numpty.

Fine. That seems like a reasonable view, particularly from someone like you. As I've said on a number of occasions, I'd quite happily vote for an alternative to the Tories that weren't proposing some of the things that Labour were. I'll make an assessment on Labour's electability for the future assuming they lose this election, once we've left the EU and once I've seen what sort of person and policies they propose after Corbyn. I'm not holding my breath though I think it will be more of the same and maybe we need a new type of Labour party to brush these Momentum freaks away.

You're talking nonsense. Of course there would be a full house.

I didn't say all the rich people will leave. I do think enough people will move their wealth for it to become a problem. Also the fact that Labour trumpeted the fact that their manifesto was fully costed and then tacked on another 58 billion totally uncosted just to try to attract more votes. I consider everything I said to be extreme, particularly the levels of spending. Promising loads of free stuff without being able to pay for it is very extreme. I mentioned early years because its a sector I know very well and if they bring in underfunded "free" places and do not allow nurseries to charge a top up, nurseries will close at a faster rate than they already are (three closed in Southampton in the last month.) Gigantic infrastructure projects that will cost many billions in order to allow state control of the internet is incredibly extreme. If the polls are to be believed, its currently failing to strike enough of a chord with the electorate.

I'd keep them whilst they, are profitable and have a use to the country. Once they start becoming insufferable and lecturing then they have to go. Harry and his new wife need removing ASAP. William and Kate showing them how it's done.

I'm certain that that in isolation is not why.

Ffs the latest virtue signalling load of b*llocks. I'll. Avoid this one.

The bit which will cause enough rich people to leave the country which makes all the huge spending cost projections unworkable, levels of spending that concern he IFS, "free" government controlled Internet, "free" early years childcare for 2, 3 and 4 year olds that is totally uncosted and will lead to childcare providers closing. That's off the top of my head but I can't be bothered to look in greater detail to find more.

Really odd reason not to drop someone.

Wasn't there some financial information on the day 9/11 happened? I may have remembered that wrong.

It's a view expressed well by this famous Disney writer: https://insidethemagic.net/2019/10/screenwriter-strong-female-characters-bb1/ They are so afraid of portraying a woman in a more traditionally "feminine" way for lack of a better phrase that you have this ridiculous strong woman stereotype that audiences are rejecting. See the latest terminator film with some tiny delicate looking woman firing massive guns as if it was nothing or what looks to be hideous agenda pushing of the latest charlies angels. Audiences don't want it.

Because that's the background that all the writers come from and they have to work to diversity quotas rather than what's actually good. I pray that one day they will see the light and the media in general will go back to using for example women in proper ways. Ripley was in my opinion one of the greatest characters in any film ever and she was a strong female character precisely because she wasn't defined by her gender or because she wasn't pushing some ridiculous political point. Let's have more characters like that and brilliant acting and storytelling rather than whatever has been going on with Dr Who, Ghostbusters, star trek, star wars and potentially the new James bond.

You aren't voting for an individual, you are voting for a party and their policies. I don't care what Johnson is like, no sane person could vote for the extremism that Labour is selling.

Think we can all agree with that.

I watch everything via streaming which has anything I could ever want to watch. Haven't watched BBC for about five years, enjoyed a few dramas on it but there's very little else to enjoy. I've never watched Dr who but I heard from people who do that that's been infected by the social justice disease of heavy handed politics. Unfortunately the BBC isn't held back by things like making money so it can push that sort of thing and not have to worry if it turns people off. The sooner they change it itno some subscription type service the better.

I haven't been to games this season apart from the last one but at half time if that's what the fans had been subjected to at home all season then I can't blame them for booing. It was awful.

It's at home.

But as I already said, I didn't call him an anti-semite.

To be fair it made the end of the game go quicker so I wasn't as nervous!

I was stood with those cretins fighting and no they weren't Watford fans. After we scored our second some tw*ts were jumping on fans below them and pushing fans down rows of chairs. Some 15 year old kid with a mullet got angry with one of the people doing the pushing and some older woman he seemed to know who looked like a caveman started squaring up to people. It culminated in some old bloke squaring up to the 15 year old and telling him he would meet him outside and then another bloke they were with getting carted out by the stewards after trying to continue the fighting. The thick woman left shortly after.

I'm surprised we haven't given Adams more of a chance or at least a chance from the bench. Redmond starts every game and he's been rubbish this season.

They are. Getting rid of Ralph will achieve nothing. We won today but the fundamental problems remain.

To be honest it was great to win but we were still rubbish.
