Don't think I've seen a better manifesto from a major party in Europe probably since Syriza first got elected. Its funny how the MSM are screaming hysterically -its communism ! Socialism !! -basically it's nationalisation of a few utilities that we already owned that the tories sold off to their chums, and some Keynsian economics, policies already adopted by other European states Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't get that sort of policy-filled manifestos anywhere anymore. Now it's mostly meaningless PR bullshit on both the left and the right. ....not that I expect it to make any meaningful difference in the results. People have been discouraged to vote for actual policies for decades now.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now the probabilities are that he has no chance, like Bernie Sanders, but it's funny how May is suddenly trying to appeal to the disenfranchised. Youre right so many people tend to vote on the shallowest of whims, it's personality and style nowadays that sways voters http://www.spiked-online.com/newsite/article/labours-leaked-manifesto-and-the-tyranny-of-tina/19807#.WRlK9YWcH4d Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that's always the criticism of any policies outside of the 'allowed' spectrum. Not that it's bad or immoral or that you can argue reasonably against it. But that it's "mad". It's politically naive because it could never actually pass. The reason it could never actually pass is exactly because of all the twats who say that it can't happen. It's a self-fulfilling prophecy. Never mind that the majority of the public actually agree with the said policy. Same happened with Sanders in the US.

Spike 12,049 Posted May 20, 2017 Author Share Posted May 20, 2017 So someone tried to assassinate Robert Spencer by spiking his drinks. Pathetic, if you're going to murder a man at least look at him in the eyes. Cowards, willing to sacrifice another's life for what they believe in but not their own.

Fulham Broadway 17,333 Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 Bomb at Ariana Grande concert in Manchester -means the audience was mainly 10-16 year old girls. 22 dead, 60 injured by a suicide bomb. Sounds like he walked in at the end which is easy to do. Lots of little girls carrying pink balloons. Just had to listen to some poor lady on radio who's been looking for her daughter all night.

11Drogba 2,000 Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 If Iran was buying weapons from Nato allies no one would say anything about human right abuses or terror support. Presidents would call them to congratulate and invite them to their capitals to have dinner or even dance with their leaders.

Absolute shitcunts I just realized how desensitized I have become towards events like this. It's become so common that hearing this news didn't evoke any noteworthy emotions in me, just another day in the world. People will colour their facebook pictures, then soon something new will happen and we will forget all about this. kellzfresh and Johnnyeye 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't talk bollocks mate this is off the scale barbarism no one in England and certainly Manchester will forget this. You go and colour in your Facebook and stop making idiotic comments. This was aimed at children who were on a night out I can't get my head around it. Johnnyeye 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody is arguing that this is evil, but mass killing people is too common in the world and practically everyday news now. Btw, I don't have any pictures in facebook, I don't participate in such trivialities, so you can kindly keep your attempts at insulting me to yourself, I'm not swayed. nachikethas 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Special Juan 28,146 Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 If I read any distasteful comments in here, whether it be this latest terror event, or any other, they will be gone from this forum for good. Right now I am a broken man, totally and utterly distraught. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kids have been killed mate and as Special Juan said I'm going to leave it there.You said not to talk about feelings I know fuck all about, i think i know my own feelings better than anyone. I do feel disgust and anger (not noteworthy for me as i feel that often), but some 5-7 years ago it would have been worse when people weren't being killed left and right. I was merely trying to stress the unfortunate state of the world, not play down the event. I own the mistake of saying "we will forget" however, as that is not a fair generalisation and only used that as an hyperbole, for which i am sorry.

Fernando 6,585 Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 I wonder what the nations are going to do. Because even though this is coming from people who radicalized to Islamic extremism, you can't ban a religion. Like Trump wanted to ban Muslim, but that will not solve anything.
