Bloody nationalistic flag****ers

Big Ben itself is important, but for it to be ringing to celebrate Brexit isn't.

I think that's how it goes usually.

Yes, that's how it always goes... but only ever from you.

What a ridiculous waste of money.

Lying money grabbing tory scum!!

Livia 14-01-2020 09:19 PM

I see from this thread that the plea for people to moderate the language they use when speaking about those with whom they disagree; the inflammatory, aggressive, provocative language ..... has whooshed straight over some people's heads.

No one has used inflammatory language towards any other members in here :shrug:

Unless you expect us to be happy and civil about the Tory's throwing money down the drain for Brexit flagwankery, instead of investing it in literally anything else.

Tory scum...is a direct insult towards anyone on the forum that voted conservative

If it ain't, then all lgbt and the rest should be able to suck up direct insults towards thier community anywhere on this forum. ..

Only if they personally identify as a Tory MP, which I guess good for them? :shrug:

People aren't responsible for you choosing to take offense at something that wasn't even aimed at you. Get thicker skin.

If you read my post properly you will see that I never mentioned forum members. I said "people with whom they disagree". That includes everyone they disagree with, on and off the forum.

I don't expect you to be happy. I expect you to say what you think without having to resort to terms like "flagwankery". I've seen that twice now and it makes no more sense the second time.

Finally, I've clearly said in a previous post on this thread, that I think this exercise is a waste of money. But if people want to donate their own money, that's very much up to them.

Flagwankery means overly nationalistic people who get sexually turned on by the sight of the Union Jack/Big Ben/Nigel Farage

And that's a very simplistic and rather childish generalisation. Who do you know that gets sexually turned on by that stuff?

I voted Brexit. Paying to have Big Ben chime is stupid and a waste of money. See? not everyone fits into your neat little pigeon holes.

This may come as a surprise, but not every comment aimed at Tories/Right wingers/Brexiteers is aimed at you
