I've looked. I can't find your reasoned critique of the Labour manifesto. I wrote about Labours policies a few pages back. You are doing the HoL version of the 'Harlow quiz'. That is when you go into a pub in Harlow and get asked 'what are you looking at' and 'what's your problem' and whatever answer you give incorrect.

I didn't start from ignorance at all. I come to my own conclusions and make my own calls on what I see from people and the way I think society should operate. It's called an opinion, just because it's not from the right it doesn't mean it's ignorance. I may of used a cliche in saying they have you believe the poor are lazy but you've used many cliches including "wealth haters" so we're just as bad each other. You still didn't answer a single one of my questions though. You are coming in from a position of prejudice. There is no point engaging with you. Jog on.

I would stand corrected if this poster can direct me to a Tory statement saying the less fortunate are lazy. Theresa May's comment about working your way out of poverty kind of allude to this mindset though and doesn't do them any favours. When 55% of people in poverty are working people, wages have been static and now with the inflationary effects of the weak pound there's going to be a hell of a lot of people working as hard as they can to keep their head above water even worse off.

I'm blind to reality yet you didn't answer a single one of my questions. Not one, this is from what I gather the Tory approach to everything. "You're dumb, we're smarter than you, you're delusional, anything else will f*** up the economy", I'm just a guy on the other end of the tv and to me and many others it just comes across and sound bites, it's all it ever is with the tories, just words with very little to back up anything other than being well spoken and laughing off anyone with a different view. I put my side to you and all you can say is I'm blind, despite the fact I was genuinely asking you a number of questions to try and understand your point of view.
Truly it ain't worth the time or effort. Some people get off on it apparently.

'Kind of allude [sic] to this mindset'. Well that's me corrected by science. Thank you professor.

So, I have given you answers to your questions, but they are not to your liking, so you will wait for someone to give you the answers you want? How very fascist of you. Feel free to requote your post Matt. Oddly enough for a non Tory, I have a very busy job and keeping up with a multi page debate by mobile phone in what passes for lunchtime or whilst standing on the train isnt easy.
Well I think Simon's head is large; always involved in espionage. (Name that tune) |

I'm coming from a position of prejudice by responding to someone in a detailed post who says that labour hate the rich?? What are you going on about? I wrote line after line of questions, genuinely trying to understand your view, I only engage to understand different views, I don't understand people who argue about politics just for the sake of arguing, what's the point? A tiny little piece I made the statement that tories make you believe the poor are lazy, you've called me ignorant and prejudice yet ignore every single other point brought up which, again, was brought up after you claimed that Labour hate the rich. You're supposed to be the Tory expert, I asked you the questions to try and understand the reasoning behind your statements and all you can do is throw your toys out the pram, call me ignorant and tell me to jog on. Typical type of s*** really isn't it Edited by Mstrobez (16 May 2017 6.15pm)
