I thought it was brave, foolhardy and amusing so definitely acceptable.

Ok....As I say, I will be checking in when Corbyn's speech get wrecked next year....and considering your response to this one I shall adopt the same attitude.

If this is going to be the new playing field I shall heartily embrace it.

You are confusing me with someone who is a hearty Labour supporter. Corbyn's speech getting wrecked by some humour? Bring it on!

Thanks Stu but no defence of me necessary - it reflects what I said on another thread about the deterioration of debate quality on here "spend 5 minutes talking to someone....nope, clearly can't hold a mature debate, therefore I'm out"

I said much the same in the Mark Sampson thread.

I wasn't trying to defend you, you're one of the far more rational posters (long term or recent), which is shown here as you still didn't bite back. It's more that I think these things do need to be called out where they're just unnecessary. The moderators should be doing it, but they aren't and haven't for a long time now. Not that they should have to, but it seems that people have no self-control.

Some posters or subjects you just think I won't even bother, as you know exactly where it will go.

 


Optimistic as ever

Precisely, which is why the quality of debate has sadly diminished. Biting back is, in my view, counter-productive, as it just derails the whole thread (as we've seen on many recently, just turning into a ding-dong). I'm happy to be the bigger man and not rise to it if it means the thread stays on track.

Never mind

He doesn't really need a third party to make him look stupid - from each according to their abilities.

Clearly the whole thing was a false flag conspiracy to discredit left wing 'comedians', so by association, the comedy trio Corbyn/McDonnell/Abbott.
The cough was no doubt deliberate to garner sympathy for the right wing hellcat who leads the crypto-fascist Tory party. There is no bottom to the depths of their machinations. (Haven't quite figured out how the letter falling of the slogan fits into the conspiracy, but I'm sure wiser heads here can work it out.)

In such a fashion? In a shirt and tie, holding a piece of paper?

What about all those reporters with their microphones? One day it could be disguised as a weapon. What about canvassing during elections?

Are you saying there are no metal detectors at the conference?

Most of them are press accredited....you know passes they have had to apply for.

Well, you've been doing a reasonable impression of one...but ok.

So you want panto rather than political conferences?

So in your world this is all going to plan and there is no infighting in the Tory party and the conference and TM's speech yesterday were both a roaring success and the public at large thinks she's doing a cracking job and Boris talking about clearing away dead bodies so we can build some offices and put some deck chairs down is all a good lark, a bit like popping your knob in a deceased animal's head. All spiffing. Just a bloody good caper, let the lion roar, pop over to Europe, bash Johnny Foreigner, take back control (and £350m a week) and be home in time for tea and crumpets. Huzzah!

But like the "choir" singing about Johnson's head on a spike,or from a couple of years ago those cuddly lot from momentum selling mugs and joking about soldiers who have suffered horrific injuries.
Yeah all well with labour,unless you are a Jewish Mp then god help you.
Or even a moderate labour MP,oh no tow the Marxist line.
Reminds of the new (or now the enemy Blair.)..."things can only get better"....yeah right.

Completely agree. And the ding-dongs now are done with a level of spite and vitriol that is baffling.

Sure. But he was checked on the way in for weapons. What do you suggest to stop that kind of thing happening? Tie everyone to their seats? Hammond approached her and gave her a cough sweet. Could have been laced with cyanide.

You can kill someone just as quick with bare hands.

You are now disagreeing with the Greater Manchester Police who have made the decision that Simon Brodkin was there legitimately.Please read my post again I'm sorry that there are a few big words in there.At least I now know that approaching the P.M. is a crime.

You are now being deliberately obtuse. No one can legitimately interrupt the PMs speech for a prank in those circumstances.

You know it, I know it. Conversation over.
