I already did

He doesn’t know how

Aah ok. I should have known, but never let it be said I'm not an optimist :laugh:

er I never said they did? which was kinda my point....

You would know all about parenting...you are a parent?

jeez Kate dont go green, they think women have penises

Aw Kate you must be even more confused after this thread.

Stick all the names of the different Parties standing in your constituency, ( preferably leaving the Cons out though), in a cup or hat and pick one out.

Unless you've managed to securely satisfy yourself on Reform.
Good luck.

You don’t have to be a parent to know how to support and love a child. Quite embarrassing on you that you’ve tried that angle.

Stand by what I said, a teacher doesn’t and should not have the right to out a child to their parents. If you think they do then you’re an awful person. Simple as really.

Don't forget that some of the right do love to accuse the left of "grooming" kids, even if there's no evidence of any wrongdoing in that particular area.

Obviously Arista hasn't said that, but I have noticed that some of the right like to play the "think of the children" card.

George Galloway's far left party made derogatory remarks about gay people as well. The far left support homophobic terrorist organisations like hamas. Who killed their commander Mahmoud Ishtiwi for being homosexual. You cant just accuse the right or conservatives of hating gays.

Where did I say they hated gays? I said no one should have the right to out anyone

Hardcore Religious groups (Hamas being one of them) do tend to be Homophobic.

…it’s your vote, Kate…and you must vote for whoever you feel is where you want to place your vote…let it come from you, though…and not be influenced by the views or thoughts of others etc…everyone has their own vote to focus on…

Yes, start with what you know for us.

Exactly.

I think this thread had more posts at one point :think: weird maybe I'm mistaken.

reform are an even more extreme version of ukip. If people really want to veer toward Trump type politics in the UK then reform is their best choice.

Wave goodbye to any form of democracy

All of Smudgies posts were removed late last night. She went on a rant about multiculturalism and Tony Blair and George Soros - got very nasty very quickly.

At one point she claimed that many Eastenders scripts were written by an elite Jewish Cabal based in California and that Barry (off of Eastenders) had a tattoo on his buttocks that said "Zionism will win"

She did say she had been drinking cooking sherry from like 6 am (again?

:skull:

I've made some headway with my decision. I'm definitely going to vote (was going to abstain originally) but 100% NOT for Tory or Labour parties.

I've voted Labour all my life but Keir Starmers policies go against the grain for me and I don't want him in power.

So I'm still considering which way to go.

I more agree here.

UKIP, I quite liked some of their social policies.
However on Europe, the NHS and immigration.
I could never have looked at UKIP.

Reform however I think you describe them correctly.
An even more extreme version of UKIP.

I'm afraid I like more justice, fairness, compromise and compassion in my politics.
Which is why I am where I am politically.

I want this rotten government out, so until we've got PR in elections.
There's only one certain way to get them out.
I hope it happens.

It's not really that simple. There are cases where it's implicitly inevitable.

Here's something that happened in a school I was working at; I didn't directly work with either child, so it had nothing to do with me. So thankfully I didn't need to be involved too much.

But there were two lads who were ... not exactly "going out", but both liked each other. They were planning a sleepover, and in the circumstances it was a safeguarding issue, due to age of consent.

If they were a boy and a girl, the school would immediately tell both sets of parents, almost automatically. But of only one was out to his family, which murkied the waters a bit.

Its not an embarrassing angle at all, you will never have the responsibility and all that that entails the good and the bad until you are a parent, its very easy to parent someone elses child ....bit like back seat drivers

Shhhhhhhh, what is said in a tipsy sherry state should never be repeated.:fist:

:omgno:

Great post and spot on Oliver…
