If left wing, social, "liberal" means caring about people and humanity then I plead guilty.
If however you are greedy, racist, bigoted, selfish, narrow minded, xenophobic, economically clueless, tell outright untruths, and try and make disaster into victory then you are are a right wing nutter at best.!

There are so many who fulfil the latter who post on these forums.

Who are these people, these "lefties" that you speak of ?

And why do you keep categorizing opinions into "left" and "right" - could this be your football supporter politics coming to the fore again - why can you not discuss anything to do with politics, or the economy, or just the PM's holiday snaps, without categorising opinion and dismissing anything that does not follow your dogma ?

Why did you say a few weeks ago that you do not engage in football supporter politics and that "all parties are open to praise and criticism" and then steadfastly refuse to give any credit to the Government for anything?

I've seen you start thread after thread bashing the government on various issues but not once seen you give them some credit despite you saying "all parties are open to praise and criticism"

You start a thread on cycling - obviously an issue that is important to you. The Government announce infrastructure spending on cycling - not a peep. Save as to the minor, "good start"

Growth figures, 'a balanced recovery' - not a peep.

Your post was rubbish wasn't it Jerrychicken? You have no intention of ever giving the Conservative party praise for any measure ever. Are you afraid it will dent your 'reputation' amongst your on-line peers? Do you hide your true opinions?

Edited to take account of the one time when JerryChicken praised the Government - the red wording is incorrect

Good news about the economy isn't it?

Who cares? They're still rich, i'm still poor.

Re: The Economy : Sat Aug 24, 2013 10:06 am  

This so called strong economy has come at the expense of the working class who are working more hours for less money and in some cases for no money. Why should I see this as good news when a lot of my mates and family members who do work are struggling to get by on the money they’ve earned in this improving economy?

I am as right wing as they come - the reality in the "real world" is that this is utter rubbish, anyone who thinks the economy has shown any tangible signs of recovery is deluded.

Your thigh slapping, high-fiving shows how out of touch with reality you really are.

Osborne is the worst chancellor we have had since Healey - no doctored data will ever change that

and of course you have actual evidence to support this wild claim that flies in the face of all the recent data which strongly suggests the opposite of what you just said.....

Yes I am out there working - this is the same government that claimed the deficit was coming down when it was actually going up!! I personally would not believe a word they say I am a Tory voter.

Re: The Economy : Sat Aug 24, 2013 2:00 pm  

Yes the economy is improving and would appear from the latest figures that it was improving when we were told it was not. Even the EU is showing some signs of life. So we should celebrate it even though if Egg Moribund and his chums cannot bring themselves to admit it.
