"It's like people of all sides should shut the fuck up with the political sniping and accept that this is a great compromise " You've read it in detail? I haven't and whilst I accept it looks like an improvement on the pile of cold dog suck that Boris sold to his cultists I think it's not even being called great by Sunak loyalists.. Ps, if it's that great do you think we should all have the same deal? | |||

Most here will know that I clash with the OP fairly often but calling this racism is absolutely ridiculous That chap has tried this sort of thing before with me when I criticised Zahawi for lying and tax dodging. He just wants to smear me any way he can." You did more than that. You accused him of criminality. No charges yet brought against Zahawi. I have never ever said you're racist. And when you say 'smear me any way he can', what other ways have I attempted this? I disagree with you politically, but only someone on the hard left would say expressing this is 'smearing'. Must I ask your permission first before daring to express pro-Tory comments? When I asked you before, you responded that I had accused you of 'trying to blacken' Sunak's name. In other words, you took a typical loony left position of smearing me by changing the meaning of a perfectly innocent expression. You sound like the sort who would approve of trawling through Dahl's books, eliminating with faux outrage phrases like 'whiter than white'. What it must be like to have a perpetually faux-offended persona! | |||

Whenever you need some form of corroboration for a weak argument. How you are in contact with multiple people upset about some post or another. Either you mean what you write or you have a rich fantasy life. I do not message anyone on the forum privately. I have no reason or urge to. You can write whatever you choose, even if it is without foundation. It is more interesting if you can respond directly rather than changing the topic or refusing to respond However, you have no other course when what arguments you do have are so poorly thought out and expressed and crumble at the first query. It is amusing that you continue to use the term "lefty" as a term of criticism, especially as many of the posters who you wish to characterise as such are nothing of the sort. Myself included. Criticism of the corrupt and incompetent administration of the previous decade is nothing more than that. A concept you seem unable to comprehend for some reason. How have you "celebrated" our diverse Cabinet? You transparently attempt to use their ethnicity to prevent criticism of their behaviour and attitudes. You imply that criticism of their behaviour and attitudes is also criticism of their ethnicity. It is not. | |||

Must I ask your permission first before daring to express pro-Tory comments? When I asked you before, you responded that I had accused you of 'trying to blacken' Sunak's name. In other words, you took a typical loony left position of smearing me by changing the meaning of a perfectly innocent expression. You sound like the sort who would approve of trawling through Dahl's books, eliminating with faux outrage phrases like 'whiter than white'. What it must be like to have a perpetually faux-offended persona! I could be misremembering, but I don't remember ever using the phrase: trying to blacken. Which thread was that in? I used the phrase in relation to your constant attacks on him! Read carefully what I wrote! " You put trying to blacken in quotation marks when talking about me. That looks an awful lot like you were trying to attribute a quote to me that - as far as I know - I never made. V odd behaviour from you. | |||

"As expected! You failed to address virtually anything I raised, which is par for the course. And addressed it to Pat, which is inaccurate from the start. You seem today particularly to be revelling in whataboutery, deflection, inaccuracy and a desire to mute all other opinions unless anti Tory. All topped it appears with patronising, condasencion and superiority. Actually, par for the course really! " Actually, I addressed each of your points, in turn, directly. Reading not your friend, it seems. Attempting to claim the victim now too. Nobody is trying to cancel you. You are just being mocked for your flimsy attempts at "arguments".

"Where did racism come into it? Most here will know that I clash with the OP fairly often but calling this racism is absolutely ridiculous That chap has tried this sort of thing before with me when I criticised Zahawi for lying and tax dodging. He just wants to smear me any way he can. You did more than that. You accused him of criminality. No charges yet brought against Zahawi. I have never ever said you're racist.

"This got ugly very quickly lol x These sorts of things can happen when some1 tries to play nasty games then gets called on it." Correct. When you play nasty games re Sunak, Zahawi et al, I will call you out on it if I cannot see justification or you can't provide evidence of criminality. Which you couldn't. And still no charges brought against Zahawi. | |||

As I stated, this tends to happen when you need some "corroboration" of your opinion. I happen to think your statements are garbage, but you keep writing what you write. Also, clearly stated that nobody is trying to or is able to "cancel". Write what you like. Just accept that you will be challenged. Dig, dig, dig. | |||

It was about him avoiding the payment of tax that was due and being fined extremely heavily for being negligent. In addition to that he made unjustified legal threats against private individuals and the press on reporting perfectly legitimate and correct information. Spin, soon, spin. Dig, dig, dig. | |||

You must be able to defend your attacks on Zahawi, Sunak, Braverman, Patel more effectively than that. I have acknowledged you also attack Truss and Johnson and their ethnicity is clearly not that of the first 4. You were incorrectly accusing Zahawi of criminality and Sunak of arranging a poor deal on NI. It's not a cry of racism to ask why you would want to do that? | |||

"Cheshire here’s an idea... We draw a line now, today, after which we continue for a week (maybe two) where none of us mention race or ethnicity or gender or sexuality even once. We focus on the merits, achievements, ability, issues, scandals, propriety of all politicians treating them all as human beings and nothing more. We can then see what is actually being discussed rather than anyone attempting to imply or attribute it to anything other than those criteria. Can we do that?" I'm trying my best How are you doing on this? | |||

Where else have you seen criticism of him being characterised as racist? I've criticised him as being a good driver blessed with a far superior vehicle for which I've been called racist. And I still stand by that opinion That would be an ill judged characterisation if that were the case and you made the statement in those terms. All good drivers are flattered by superior vehicles. Somewhat obvious. Were you present? No, I was not present. Did I suggest that it didn't happen or just that I did not know what the circumstances were? Did I suggest that what you wrote was in any way racist or disagree with your opinion as stated? Have you observed or experienced many cases such as this, or was this isolated?" I've experienced many issues of this. Have you? | |||

"Implying someone is being racist because they criticise a person of colour for being or doing something rubbish is simply pathetic.

I have never experienced any such reaction if a comment negatively about Lewis Hamilton's sporting performance or even his tax affairs. | |||

"An opportunity for some to race on here and denigrate it to a type of criminality. Just like he did with Zahawi. Except this time, he's way out of step with the majority Eh? Comparing our first British Asian PM to a burglar? I'd say buy Analogies for Dummies, but I doubt they'd have such poor taste to put that in. You seem to have an indifference to Sunak and criminality analogies? What was it last week, knife crime? Are you saying people cannot make negative comments about someone because they are brown? I thought you were anti woke? I suggest you word that better. Because yes, 100% without doubt, unequivocally, I am saying people cannot make negative comments about someone because they are brown. I have no issue with people making negative comments about someone's actions because they are incompetent - whatever their colour. But there's no evidence this is an incompetent deal You should know by now how the socialists function Why are you: A) Quoting something from near the beginning of the thread when there has been follow on discussions that elaborate on the points being raised? B) Quoting a reply to me (not a Socialist) and trying to use it for your anti-socialist views? Implying someone is being racist because they criticise a person of colour for being or doing something rubbish us simply pathetic. We should judge people by their actions and their ability. Personally I couldn’t care less about a person’s race. If you are not a socialist why are you so triggered by a comment about socialists? If it’s pathetic why waste your Precious time responding Been very clear I am a centrist. Also clear that I do not accept implied racism so I will call it out. If that makes me “triggered” so be it! Not sure where i called you a racist and I wasn’t even responding to a post from yourself! " Re-read my A) and B) point above. You didn’t call me a racist but by quoting my post you were labelling me a Socialist and in the context of those posts that had implications. You then accused me if bring triggered so I then explained why that might be the case. For the record - nobody on here has called me racist. When I see implied racism against anyone I will call it out if I choose to (as is my prerogative). It is not racist to criticise a person of colour for their actions or ability. It would be racist if you make a link between their actions or ability and their race. What has been happening on this and other threads is poster A criticises a person of colour on their actions/ability then poster B makes a comment on the race of the person being criticised implying a link and ascribing that to the intent of poster A. That is implied racism and it is not acceptable and I will call that out! If that makes me triggered so be it! | |||

"Cheshire here’s an idea... We draw a line now, today, after which we continue for a week (maybe two) where none of us mention race or ethnicity or gender or sexuality even once. We focus on the merits, achievements, ability, issues, scandals, propriety of all politicians treating them all as human beings and nothing more. We can then see what is actually being discussed rather than anyone attempting to imply or attribute it to anything other than those criteria. Can we do that? I'm trying my best How are you doing on this? " You seem to have missed this question down there on the south coast? Attention to detail is something I think you'd like to pride yourself on. A few days on, how is this actually going? | |||

Well, I've been super strict on your proposition. Don't forget, it was to not 'mention race or ethnicity or gender or sexuality even once'. You've been opining frequently on the various asylum threads and the Iranian female thread, as though there's no tomorrow What happened to cause you to renege on the deal? | |||

"Sunak's deal is still polishing a ties, although the improved diplomatic relations had potential. The latest immigration and threats of leaving the ECHR or breaking its terms could now waste what potential there was. He stepped to the centre and then had to rabble rouse for the extreme." Polishing a ties???? In any case, this is your opinion which is,of course, a minority opinion | |||

We are are many years after Brexit and the polling on its consequences would indicate otherwise. The fact that he has "got Brexit done" after someone had, apparently, already done it should indicate something to you. You can look up the polling data. | |||

I called you a child because you were behaving like one by just being rude. You are perfectly aware of that. I don't have an allegiance. Yet another incorrect assumption from you. My current position is that this is the most corrupt and incompetent and genuinely uncaring and cynical run of administrations that I have experienced in my lifetime. All under the same party. | |||
