  1. If Labour get elected, does anyone on here seriously believe that Jewish people will actually be less safe than they are now? As Duckie would say, what utter pony.
  2. Very poor. He just focussed on the points he wanted to talk about instead of actually answering the questions. A common trait amongst our politicians I know, but he had a great opportunity to show that he was a better option than Johnson and he blew it. These things are not party political broadcasts and you can’t expect to be allowed to spend ages on the bigger picture when you only have 30 minutes to cover a number of different topics. He seemed very badly prepared, but then Sturgeon was better prepared and still struggled against Neil’s onslaught.

  4. It really wouldn’t have hurt to apologise to the Jewish community if they thought he wasn’t being tough enough on anti-semitism. At the end he could have just said the women deserved to be recompensed and one way or another he would find the money. He did himself no favours by being stubborn with Neil. Our politicians are so used to avoiding answering questions it seems a personal affront when the interviewer persists.

  6. Never been a fan myself either. Apart from the arrogance and second hand hair, he was a Murdoch man. For those old enough, who can forget those pictures of him out clubbing wearing a very tight white vest? It will be interesting to see if he is as tough on Johnson as he has been on Sturgeon and Corbyn.

  8. Just about sums it up. I don’t think he is a fool. He clearly wants to put the world to rights but he isn’t prepared to play the game. Johnson can play the game all day long which is why he gets away with being useless. How did we managed to get so far into our evolution and manage to produce such inept people to lead us?

  10. I think that we both know that the whole situation is not that simple Weston.

  12. Both very experienced politicians. Both served with the “Great Lady.” Both think that this country is best served by staying in the EU. Both at the end of their careers so they can say what they really believe without worrying about the effect it will have on their future in the party.

  14. Duckie! Lord Heseltine has come out and called to Tory voters to vote for the Libdems or independent candidates. He served under the “Great Lady.” Clearly a wet, Pinko, lefty.
  15. Right on cue, the Muslim Council have now come out and criticised the Tories about Islamophobia in their party. 1-1
  16. Indeed there are. I recently heard Johnson attack Corbyn for not doing enough to stamp out anti- semitism within the Labour Party. Fair enough, and I’m sure that Andrew Neil will give him a proper grilling about it during their head to head on BBC1 tonight. But what exactly is Johnson doing about Islamophobia within his own party? Wasn’t he going to launch an investigation into it? Can any Tories on here tell us how that is coming along?
  17. Don’t recall saying there wasn’t a problem. Just pointing out the support for Johnson from the Chief Rabbi when Johnson became leader of the Tories. Corbyn must be gutted that the printers missed off the bit about The Final Solution is his manifesto don’t you think?
  18. Swinson has missed a trick there. She needs to go out and abuse some Buddhists pronto!
  19. So you can’t be a floating voter without having a view of what is in front of you? This ranks up there with your view that people of a certain religious persuasion have similar features. I have made it perfectly clear that I want the Tories out in this election. I have also made it perfectly clear that I have voted for all three of the main political parties since I was 18 so I think it is perfectly reasonable to described myself as a floating voter, particularly as I haven’t decided which of the opposition parties I am going to vote for yet. But hey, let’s not deal with the issues. You do as Boris does, deflection. Classic Dom.
  20. Clearly I am that dense because I believe them when I read and here ex Tories say the party has been hijacked by the right. I here those of the far right like Robinson and Hopkins supporting Johnson. I see people like you cheering when moderates are kicked out. Silly me for getting it so wrong eh?
  21. I know nothing about what went on at Board level and who was responsible for what so well done in being so well informed as to Reed’s input to the club over the years.
  22. As the Americans would say, “you do the math.” Given the number of people who either attend football matches, watch it on Sky either at home or in a club or pub, but football merchandise or indirectly financially support football in other ways, some must be involved in supplementary support somewhere. The basic point is the huge disparity in society. Do you accept that exists? I watch a guy kick off the other day about paying extra tax who is earning £80k a year. To me that is a ****ing fortune but he seemed to feel hard done by!
  23. Do you really believe what you are saying Duckie? People are saying it because it is true. When people from your own party say it you really haven’t got much defence have you.
  24. This would be the same Rabi who is a Tory supporter? No mention of the car crash interview with Nicky Morgan where she is trying to persuade us that 19,000 of the the 50,000 “new” nurses are actually “new” even though they are existing nurses that the Tories are hoping to stop leaving. You can imagine the fun the Tory attack dogs would have with that if Abbot had been saying the same thing.
  25. No they didn’t, but that wasn’t the point was it. The point is that in our democracy we are governed by a minority government. It has nothing to do with moral high ground. It is a basic fact.
