i voted tory once in over 40 years when Thatcher was still around. See, this may be an alien concept to you, but peoples political views can change. For the record, i haven't voted in the last 3 general elections. My last vote was to remain in the EU

Pretending centrism is the way, and only admitting to voting tory when thatcher was on the ballot does not tally up. Was it Thatchers destruction of industry, or was it is the opening salvo of selling off our infrastructure to the highest bidder? Maybe it was the complete reduction in the taxation of corporations that appealed to your "centrism."

I know too well that peoples political opinions change, and I'm stating, quite clearly, that when push comes to shove, centrists generally align rightwards. Which, and I hate to have to point this out, you've just provided an example of.

why can't you accept that people have an alternative viewpoint to your own. That is what this is really all about. You can't accept reality and try to shove some crackpot theory about politics down peoples throats. Newsflash, people vote for 1 million different reasons or don't vote at all. People are engaged with politics or not at all. Politics is life and cannot be boiled down to some narrow political ideology

And here we are in the famous Slim/Bots playbook.

You say something, I make a counter point. You make it about me. It's a tale as old as old as time. If you want to disagree with me, then disagree with me, but make it about comments that have been written, rather than having your jimmies rustled (shout out to LK wherever he is).

I've only commented on things you've written, you have to resort to this other weird stuff for some reason.

My politics is the minority in this country, so why wouldn't I be able to accept others have different viewpoints? Because you have nowhere else to go, after you boxed yourself into a cul-de-sac. As you seem to do every time we have a discussion. Don't blame me for that, you should be mad at yourself, brother.
