I take no notice of the media, just sitting back relaxed while they all kill themselves. Who actually takes them seriously?
Hopefully Boris wins in a canter, goes on to deliver brexit, and then trump secures another term. The dummies will be going in all directions. |

By:
The one on the BBC, you mean? You know, our state broadcaster who buys more copies of The Guardian than any other paper, despite its national circulation being otherwise so low. Is that the debate you’re talking about?
|
|
By:
Was that the debate where Boris exposed his total ignorance by suggesting GATT Article XXIV?

there will still be a few on here, MC

The same BBC who advertises its job vacancies in The Guardian more than any other paper. Is that the one?
|
|
By:
The same BBC who praised left wing ‘comedian’ Jo Brand for suggesting people should throw battery acid on politicians, yet sacked Danny Baker for posting a picture of a monkey? That BBC you mean?

The guardian really got you lot tilted hard
|
|
By:
Labour is attacked because many of its prominent members ARE anti-Semitic. Who in the Tory party is Islamophobic?
|
|
By:
Why does the left wing broadcaster not put their full support behind policy of labour. Why does it not show support for labour and corbyn, even implicitly?
This would be actual sign of left wing bias. Not that the employ some liberals and buy a load of the guardian |

I noticed a feature on the beeb site a while back, debating if it was ok to listen to Michael Jackson songs. This coming from the lot who employed a certain fix it character doing tv shows for donkeys years.
How can you take them seriously. |
|
By:
No, The Guardian is what it is - a left wing newspaper. It’s the BBC who are the hypocrites - purporting to be impartial when they clearly are not. And worse, forcing folks to pay for their hypocrisy. That is what tilts me.
|
|
By:
The bbc has a liberal bias, I don't think that is arguable. It certainly does not have a left one.
|
|
By:
Which, despite what this forum thinks and acts like, I think the country is mostly socially liberal. At least for now

Who, specifically, does Baroness Warsi accuse of being Islamophobic?

Zac Goldsmith and those associated with the mayoral campaign, thoughb

By:
I can’t copy and paste on this device. What prominent Tories does she accuse of Islamophobia? Tell me their names and I’ll google them.
|
|
By:
Zac Goldsmith? Was he one? Okay, I’ll google it now.
|
|
By:
i presume Zac Goldsmith is Jewish?

turns out he is

You will not get any reasonable discussion with talkmadder such is his blind hatred of anything to the left of Rees fogg
|

By:
You can talk about who you like. Once again, try not to invent stuff that wasn’t written.
|
|
By:
then you might need to explain why you are asking about prominent Tories
|
|
By:
Anxious displaying his breathtaking hypocrisy as ever.
|
|
By:
The explanation has already been given but you chose to ignore it. To reiterate, several PROMINENT Labour Party members ARE anti-Semitic.
|
|
By:
iirc it was one Lynton Crosby who brought out Goldsmith's inner islamophobe for his mayoral campaign.
|

Torque inventing stuff again

Aaron projecting again.
|
|
By:
Which prominent Labour members are anti semitic or to put it another way anti- zionist
|
|
By:
I’m off to Sainsbury’s, chaps. Does anyone want anything fetching? An original thought for Aaron? Sense of humour for Anxious? A dictionary for Management?
Think of the Nectar points!  |

"The saddest thing is that despite all the above - he's the strongest candidate the Tories have to offer"
Well that is of course a matter of opinion. He's the most popular and if by strongest you mean most popular and most likely to win an election I agree. Hunt would be a better choice if it were up to me and not the Tory Members and public. We are in an age where politics is turning more and more into a populaity, personality and cult contest, hence Corbyn, Farage, Trump, BREXIT and soon to be Boris. The leftist media are getting carried away by their determination to paint him as an idiot, but he is streets ahead of Corbyn in terms of pragmatism, leadership and intellectual capability, although that isn't hard at all. |

By:
I think you give him too much credit. The media doesn't have to be "leftist" to paint him as an idiot (what media is leftist anyway these days? - apart from the Guardian & Mirror - it all leans to the right) -
I hope he enjoys the ride - because it will be a very short one! - Which in itself is more evidence that he (and his team) are idiots. Who in their right mind would want to try to clear up this mess (of which he was one of the chief architects) - it's a kamikaze mission impossible even for a very talented individual never mind for an idiot whose ambition always gets the better of his IQ. So I am still saying he is an idiot in his own right (regardless of relativity to other idiots) - ultimately - Why would anyone but an idiot even be putting themselves forward at this point in time? |
