DieselDaisy Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 Well I like Boris as a populist bumbling Dickensian figure appearing on Have I Got News For You but I do not think he should be allowed anywhere near the seats of power. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Padme Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 Well things just got more entertaining, as wasted put it. But Boris has nothing to do with that. Tony "War Criminal" Blair is saying thank you Corbyn by take care of Labour. But you can stick your soft Brexit and any kind of Brexit up inside your ass https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2017/jul/15/brexit-followed-by-corbyn-put-uk-flat-on-back-tony-blair Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wasted Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 Blair reminds me of Nixon more and more. He's like a clone of Prince Charles and Mekon from Dan Dare. He just needs a hovercraft and to be framed for war crimes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DieselDaisy Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 I do not know why atari is so obsessed with the Mail considering most of its content is just regular stories involving the topical (e.g. Charlie Gard), Diana, sex or murder. A teacher having it off with a student is a good example of what the Mail prints. The Mail loves a good teacher bonking story. Or some twee tale about a pensioner being fined for displaying a garden gnome. Yes it is right-wing in the politics it does espouse featured in the first few pages (pro-May; moderately Brexit; anti-Corbyn), and yes it possesses Hitchens, a man who'd make Enoch blush, but there really is little politics in the bloody thing! It is a paper for curtain twitchers and people who make homemade jam, not political animals (least of all, Neo-Nazis!). Basically it is middle England's version of the Sun. Now the Express is a different animal. The Express is far more Brexit than the Mail, and is literally full of political stories and ghastly European and/or Corbynista plots; it wouldn't be wrong to call the Express ''the anti-Europe'' paper, and it wouldn't be wrong to say that you have to be into your politics of a right description to read it. Maybe the confusion lies in them both being a bit obsessed with Diana? Compare the two websites and you'll see exactly what I mean. But still Atari harps on about the Mail... (I think of him when I do my Sunday crossword!). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DieselDaisy Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 Atari, I have before me the Sunday Mail and Sunday Express haha. They both have Diana on the front cover - no word of a lie. I will now proceed to work myself up into a sweaty right-wing rage, as well as, ehh, do the crosswords. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graeme Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 Still haven't warmed to the idea of leaving to be honest. I've been an EU citizen all my life and I don't really want my ability to move freely, live and work in 27 countries and to feel like I belong taken away because some Daily Express reading moron in fucking Hinckley or any of the other bumfuck English counties that voted to leave dislikes seeing Polish shops and thinks that Nigel Farage looks like the sort of bloke you could go for a pint with.

DieselDaisy Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 I still say you cannot be a true man of the left and a supporter of the European Union. The two are completely antithetical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Padme Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 I don't think it is a matter of right and left only. Partners signed agreements. Now one partner wants out, fine. But that partner just can't put all those agreements in a trash can and pretend that nothing happens Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's two options; 1.)

You cannot argue against free market centre-righty supranational politics on the one hand - ''I am a man of the left'' - then suddenly start supporting the EU! 27 countries?
