Are you liking Tory Boy Joel?
 

The Conservatives are the party for the working man

did you know?

Chloe loved the £600 tax break


How do you like it?

The Tory party are NOT the party for the working man but the Millionaire, so I'm not liking Joel's political views BUT he is the only HM I can tolerate watching at the moment.
He actually seems the most normal one in there.

Yes Bring him back Harry

I can't stand him, and it's nothing to do with his political standing.

He's a jumped up little twerp who needs to stop trying to speak for the house and stop acting like he's some new age Jeremy Paxman. But of course he won't do either of those things because he has nothing else to offer.

I was loving him, but he's getting increasingly more irritating now. He and Jack being twats to Simon at every chance they get is pissing me off tbh, and their behaviour would no doubt be picked up on more if Simon was more popular.

Regardless of how he's been, they're just being horrid now.

i hate conservatives - but love joel - he is good stuff and boy can he rap. mc joel all the way.

Joel is boring

He's quite annoying sometimes, but then he comes out with something that really makes me laugh, he's easily the most complex character this series, I find it really hard to work him out and i like that

No him and Marc are bottom five humans of all time and need to leave

Yeah I love Joel, the most genuine nice guy there! he makes me laugh as well

I really don't like his political stance but I do like Joel.
Despite likely rarely agreeing with him,he is the housemate I would be talking to most in there or even debating/arguing too,as to politics.

I get the feeling he is scared of doing or saying something too controversial,being aware the Conservative hierarchy are probably taking note of what he says and how he behaves in there.
He does hope to be selected to fight a parliamentary seat in the future.

Maybe we are not getting all the sides there are to Joel.

He is a bit like me, I am considered far too serious, even by my closest friends,with little in the way of real humour,so I can relate as to that to Joel definitely.

............i kinda feel joel needs to broaden his horizons.....................

where's the rebel inside fighting the system?

Mark L

Gone off him in recent days. And stop this 'tories for the working class' bs

joel is one of my favourites

He's awful

All tories are bastards

Cannot stand him, worst in there.

he is a character.

Mummys little soldier :devil:..........boring little tit more like

I'm not english so I don't follow english politics but Joel himself I like. I actually think he has fantastic interviewing and presenting skills and he could have a bright future as a political correspondent. Now whether or not he believes the party's tag lines that's of course what he's going to be saying since he's in the party.

Also this £600 effective tax break he was talking about. A lot of people are sneering about it but is it untrue? By raising the entry point to tax they are surely providing tax relief and in terms of % it'll most greatly affect those skirting around that income level.

I quite like him.

:facepalm:

Yes but they have slashed welfare and public services to the extreme. Not for the poor at all, it's all to suit their rich friends.

he is a precocious little boy, nothing endearing or likeable in him at all. Comes across as a spoilt brat

:clap1:

Eric Pickles has lost a lot of weight recently! :laugh:

cringe.. he is clueless, but thinks he knows everything. bratty and nosy.. bored with him..

:clap1:

AND it was actually implemented by the Lib Dems, Tories opposed it

Thanks for that.:nono:

He seems like a misfit to me. You could take that suit off him and put it on a sixty year old man and it'd look okay. He needs someone to take him shopping.

NO im not a deluded little tory wanker.

:joker:I am sure no one means you Kazanne,just the politicians.

I have many friends who are Conservative supporters, we do argue a lot on some issues but we see ourselves as still great people.
Look at you and I during the election, we were total opposites then.
The secret is never to allow divisions no matter how great to sacrifice futures,or the unity of the past either.

I have to say I actually really like Joel, from what I have seen as to him,he reminds me a lot of how I used to be and how I still am in many ways.
I have little humour, am most of the time really serious,I prefer being around the pack but not part of it.
I think like me too, he has his eyes set on his future and he doesn't want to do anything that may be seen as risky or 'out of line'.

I do have a more wilder side to myself from what I have thus far seen as to Joel but I am interested in him and would,as I said before, be spending a lot of time, chatting to him and debating/challenging him on many issues.
He cannot get a good debate going in there as to politics and maybe politics is his only thing really.
Which makes him possibly look a little lost and out of place.

Well in fairness to him at no point did he say he was for the poor or for those on welfare. In fact he specifically said he was for working people so slashing welfare is in line with that stance.

This is more in line with what I was wondering. They're taking credit for something they tried to prevent which just happened to happen during their time in office. That's the political hypocrisy we know and love.

I thought you were talking about cuts then... I was thinking 'what planet are you on??' :laugh:

Most welfare goes to those in-work.

Oh, apologies! I thought that meant jobseekers allowance. I wasn't thinking about stuff like child support etc. My bad.

As I mentioned I'm not hugely familiar with the UK (or Irish tbh) system and was just seeking to understand.

I really liked Joel at first, now I find hm far too judgemental and pompous.
I started to go off him when he was asking Aaron how many men he had slept with and started dividing it into how many a week, silly beggar hasn't twigged that you could have a few inns day and ne for the rest of the week/ month.
His politics don't bother me at all..Tory and proud of it anyway.

I can't help thinking he has a gay mouth. I know that's wrong of me but it's just what keeps popping up in my head when he talks, smiles or laughs.
