100% this. I don't get this idea that because he has a background in comedy and personal troubles that he somehow doesn't deserve to be listened to on the topic of politics. Isn't that the whole idea of democracy?

If he's well informed or not can be debated, but the same could be said for everybody who has an opinion.

Every popular person will have a portion of people "idolising" them, but you'll probably find the vast majority just watch in interest of an alternative viewpoint and/or for entertainment.

I'll be back at work by then so I won't have all day to dance the dance. If I'm forced into a dance off though, can you make it salsa. I'm good at that... when I haven't got a gammy leg.

It's the tango. But you have to do it solo.

Yeah not much of a standoff when I keep kicking her crutches away :laugh:

Meh, the right wing media would do anything to ruin the guy's reputation, not sure if I'm happy to see them attempt to do so or not. He's a cocky mouthpiece who doesn't have all that much to say but has a wordy way of saying it and I don't like his agenda but I also don't think it's his fault whatsoever that people on the other side of the world are being exploited.

Oh yes look at that massive list of current major national newspapers, such as "The Bee-hive" which apparently closed down in 1872.

Mess, the truth. Mess.

I post the trews everyday in the trews thread, even if there's no comment some may read it, not every thread get's replies.

A) I'm not a labour supporter

B) I didn't ask you to do anything

C) not sure copying and pasting a list counts as work

D) was just pointing out that your list is neither mainstream nor (even remotely) current.

Saying nothing at all would be a more worthwhile contribution than straight copying and pasting a pointless list. In fact I will contribute more to this thread right now that you did with that post.

There you go. It's a picture of a carrot. Enjoy.

JoshBB 10-06-2015 05:52 PM

The truth,

Quoting a list of left-leaning newspapers is not at all what is meant by giving examples of 'the left-wing do exactly the same'. Not an example at all.
