A majority who post regularly on here are on the left to some degree. It’s  reflected in the parties they support. It’s nothing to hide but when people who are on the left say their views generally reflect the centre, that’s when it goes wonky. 

 

Merry Christmas mate.

A climb down is akin to u turn. Announcing it after parliament ended is poor form too. 

They haven’t climbed down though have they? They have just adjusted the level at which it kicks in. They haven’t ditched the bill.

This would have been the U-est if U-turns had the previous government did it, yes?

There will never be a u-ier U-turn than the previous govt u-ey u-turn in COVID, when they insisted on kids going back to school in January, only to change their minds after ONE day, this ensuring not only a damaging lockdown, but also that it went on longer because everyone had a day to sneeze and snot on each others kids before sending them home to their parents.

Lethal consequences for some too.

So it's going to take something more than adjusting a limit on some tax before they get close to u-iest.

Would love to know how these conversations started. How many people we talking about Ralph? And in what walks of life? Just an example of how you started your chat, and how that progressed onto Government policy and their hatred would be good.

As if people want to have those chats at Christmas with some random weirdo 😂 It reminds me of when @east-stand-nic told us he has spoken to 7 separate white South African's, and each one told him of their struggles with being persecuted in SA because they were white.

I think the problem the "lefties" have on here is not criticism of the Government - in fact some of us have been incredibly vocal on how shit this government has been - it's more that a lot of our right leaning posters just seem to make shit up to try to prove their point, instead of using facts. Come up with a well articulated, back-up point then we will be happy to discuss at length (as tends to happen more with posters like @hypochondriac), but there are too many posters, like yourself, who seem to veer away from detail or the truth. We don't particularly like this Government, we just don't take fools gladly.

Have a lovely Xmas! 🎄 🎁 

Why oh why does the truth bother you so much dopey? So I know people from all over the world and have traveled. So what. So I get to hear stuff that you dont on MSM who are clearly bias. Suck it up buttercup.
