Thanks Study. For someone on the right I'm guessing I can still claim two more miners strikes on my CV than you my old plastic leftie.

Any minute now another Libtard Pandora will independently post some illiterate nonsense that has no relevance to whats being discussed and then run away..its what he does.Must kill him to read these posts and not have the intellect to interject and voice an opinion.

Kudos to you, goonthen.

Incidentally, I have NEVER claimed to be a leftie (although I probably am left of centre in my views - compared to you lot, I'm round the corner and as far away as it gets, and have only once voted Labour.
I just hate the crap I keep seeing on here and my I think fairly sound knowledge of history and my personal experiences (I've never been down the mines though) makes me loathe the Conservatives and even more, new right-wingers.

Fair play SF.One of the wisest phrases I ever heard as a young socialist was.. "You'll never understand the mind of a Conservative until you've got something to conserve".Thatcher bless her, pulled the political stroke of the last century by selling council houses, thus presenting legions of now ex Labour voters with something to conserve.

Akabula, never missing a chance.

GoOnThen, what I understand less, is people voting Conservative who have NOTHING to conserve.

Has this forum become a leftie echo chamber? No, it hasn`t become one, it always was one. Along with virtually every other public forum, and every form of mass media. What has happened, though, is that for the first time in most of our lifetimes, someone (Nigel and Donald) has had the audacity to point out the utter woefulness of all this pc bollox, how unnatural it all is, and how we`d all be better off finally ridding ourselves of what is nothing more than an `Emperor`s New Clothes` brainwashing, foist upon the Western world for generations.

So, all that`s changed is that the delicate little lefties are finally (and most unexpectedly, poor blossoms!), discovering how it is to have to live under the yoke of political oppression. Suck it up, lefties, we`ve suffered a lifetime waiting for sanity to be restored, most of it spent shaking our heads in disbelieving despair.

The sweetest bit? The knowledge that this beautiful turn of geo-political events isn`t just a blip, something that will be reversed after Donald`s done his eight years. Oh no, the tide has turned irrevocably, decades of decency-loving freedoms trodden underfoot is over, we are now in a New World, one that has no time for wastrels of the left, trying to ruin the world and make us conform with their tosh.

Given the old edict `If you`re not a socialist at 18, you have no heart; if you`re still a socialist at 30, you have no brain`, it would seem somewhat remiss of me not to take this opportunity to remind all the lower-IQ types that every squeal of indignant moral outrage that anyone would stop believing their pc claptrap provides more fun and glee than any Comedy Club could ever do. And not only is it free, but it`s on 24 hours a day, for the rest of our lifetimes. YOU, dear lefties, have become no more than the gift that keeps on providing  us decent folk with the best show we`ve ever seen! Utterly priceless! So, be aware that with every utterance of tosh, with every post on here, with every BBC/CNN/Sky seethe, you add immeasurably and exponentially to the happiness of nations.

These are, indeed, sweet days.

YEE PHUCKING HAH!!!

We ALL laugh at them, twizzle, that is their new, and highly justified, role in our world. Nothing more than Court jesters, whose thoughts and self-importance have been scientifically and medically proven to cure the darkest depths of depression, so risible are they.

What is it about them, that they can`t even read a dictionary? If they could, they would know it`s no coincidence that the Romance Languages which so influenced English equates `left` with `sinister`.

Taken from; 
http://english.stackexchange.com/questions/39092/how-did-sinister-the-latin-word-for-left-handed-get-its-current-meaning



`...Historically, the left side, and subsequently left-handedness, was considered negative in many cultures. The Latin word sinistra originally meant "left" but took on meanings of "evil" or "unlucky" by the Classical Latin era, and this double meaning survives in European derivatives of Latin, and in the English word "sinister".

    Meanings gradually developed from use of these terms in the ancient languages. In many modern European languages, including English, the word for the direction "right" also means "correct" or "proper", and also stands for authority and justice.

So, if you were left-handed or sinister, you were associated with evil. In time, sinister itself meant evil and threatening. EtymOnline said that sinister attained this meaning in the early 15th century. The OED supports this, writing that the first uses of sinister to mean malicious were:

    1474 Rolls of Parl. VI. 110/1 Contynuyn in habundaunce of goodes and havour, to their sinister pleasure.

    1477 Earl Rivers tr. Dictes or Sayengis Philosophhres (Caxton) (1877) lf. 7, Leste ye be let or withdrawen ther fro by eny sinistre or euil temptacion....`





So, by very definition; left equals evil, right equals good and proper. Fairly simple, you`d think...

Well, a few facts of life regarding the world and decent humanity itself, always help protect against the lifelong onslaught of their bullying bluster. Don`t want to be confounding the imbeciles, so we`ll put it in baser English; they don`t like it up`em!

Studyform the British people do not trust the leftists and liberals any more, they do not trust them because they do not deserve to be trusted.

now you claim you never see any moral outrage from left leaning posters...now I am sorry but it is such idiotic statements that might be the reason why leftists cannot be trusted.

The tory/Donny fanboys on here seem to start all the threads on here and are incapable of any rational debate apart from calling people snowflakes or loonies or some other demented drivel, the amount of posts with fawning love for the likes of Trump and Farage is embarrassing to, then we have the childish outrage for the likes of the Scouse Scaffolder Torquemada and his sidekicks twizzle and Akabula or Bonnie Prince Charlie , the most laughable claim of these lunatics is their claim to patriots

(Dont bother coming on to patronise me Scanadahaven$hitface because i just laugh at you and you're luvvie mates)Laugh


The forum stooge and class clown laughs at me, how will I ever recover from this

I have to disagree studyform

the British people do not do what they are told by the press
at some point they do what they think to be right for themselves and their country..that is why they are British

fashion exist yes, it exists because the British people are endelessly inventive and creative
and have even been able to create some of the most beautiful pop songs

I like Corbyn in many ways, so do many other British people but would not vote for him because ultimatedly I feel he and people like him would be prepared to destroy everything that we are lucky to have in this country, our very freedom

I know fashion isn`t all British, some of it is American.
They write the songs, and we write the songs.
that is how it is.
What makes British people different?, I don`t know maybe it`s a miracle.

Studyform delivering a masterclass on this thread.

silly people worrying about the proms and truck or treat and the price of coffee.
They gave us the Beatles and the stones , punk rock and Pink Floyd Springsteen and the Velvet Underground
The Godfather 2  and Willie Nelsn singing you were always on my mind
And Roy Orbison...silly ungrateful people

Ahh, how refreshing a bit of balance on Chit Chat now
