I hate being right so often. The Lefty Civil Service thinks that they can try the same tactic multiple times while the pathetic Prime Minister keeps bottling it. Edited by Hrolf The Ganger (27 Apr 2023 4.26pm) That's my laugh for today. Nothing will top that. You aren't right so often. You are right all the time. Just not the way you mean it. I have no doubt those who work as civil servants have as diverse political views as the rest of us.

so your leftyness wanes when it is close to home Do you support Khan as London mare? The problem with electric cars right now is not only charging, it's the cost and the massive carbon footprint in production. Edited by HKOwen (28 Apr 2023 8.46am) I think I have set out why I do not at the moment support a specific issue brought in by the London mayor.I don't think my view is particularly NIMBY as I do agree that we do need to do something about pollution in all our cities. Do I like Khan as Mayor? Not particularly as he seems far quicker like most politicians at the moment to moan about what they object to rather than what they stand for and to blame others. I have in my role as lefty trade Union supporting civil servant worked with politicians across all parties. Some I liked some I didn't. Didn't stop me doing my job with each of them.

You really don't have to be a modern day Nostradamus to predict much of what happens these days. You just have to remove your head from your arse. Try it.

That you might see yourself as a modern-day Nostradamus makes some sense. If you promote convoluted predictions, which can be interpreted in many different ways, some subsequently will be capable of being presented as being possibly accurate. Did Nostradamus get anything right? Some think so, but only if you strain the billhooks out of the word soup first.

Fair enough, but Khan is doing what almost all politicians do only in extremis. As the general election draws nearer the blame game from all sides will become unbearable, Brenda from Bristol made an excellent point.
Responsibility Deficit Disorder is a medical condition. Symptoms include inability to be corrected when wrong, false sense of superiority, desire to share personal info no else cares about, general hubris. It's a medical issue rather than pure arrogance. |
