Argue in circles about British politics thread
Thing is, Kungfu, you seem to post your stuff believing that you are educating and enlightening. Fact is, everyone accesses the news from their various sources. We're all fairly well informed. We don't need your copy and pasting to know what's going on.
The point of fora such as this is to exchange views with people whom one knows, or to see a local expat perspective.
Don't waste time regurgitating crap from the guardian and expect people to engage with you. Try some original thought.

My education is imperfect. I like a clear summary and arguing in circles is more fun than sensible, which is the missionary position in politics (favoured by the Brexiters, the Kamasutra is a depraved concept from those bloody foreigners!)
Bring it on KFF!

One of the extremely ironic things I have noticed about this election, is that people who were laughing at Trump during the US elections and continue to do so, are supporting Johnson who is the direct UK equivalent.
Everyone has been laughing at the fact that Johnson wouldn't say Trump's name in the NATO press conference because he knows it would be a disaster on the Conservative vote. Don't they realise how similar to Trump Johnson is anyway?
Conservative supporters do seem to have a massive blind spot when it comes to this.
FACTCHECK 440
Right-wing deregulated market low taxation. check
Anti immigration. check
Closed borders. check
Compulsive liar. check
Make America great again/Make Britain great again. check
Russian interference in the election. check
TV personality. check
Complete clown. check
There are more...

Under the FOIA, that's all you're getting from me Slavedog. Now fuck off you Tory cunt.
There is nothing I can say or do that would compare to the idiocy of the likes of Johnson, Trump and Bolsonaro etc.

Do you think he plans it all out, or just makes it up as he goes along.
Fucking Bozo.

Ken Livingstone stood for Labour as 2012 Mayoral candidate against the incumbent, Boris Johnson. His campaign attracted criticism when he joked that the election was "a simple choice between good and evil", and when he was accused of anti-semitism by Jewish Labour supporters for suggesting that, being largely wealthy, the Jewish community would not vote for him. He denied making the comments, but nevertheless apologised. He also responded, "every psephological study I've seen in the 40 years I've been following politics shows the main factor that determines how people vote is their income level. And it's not anti-Semitic to say that."
Up the workers!
I say, that's rather disappointing, the Kungfu Kid has edited the post where he called me a 'Tory Cunt'.

What do you reckon KFF’s profile is? Age etc?
I used to think he was a youngster, but I’m now guessing he’s in his forties or fifties. Like Vladimir, well educated and from a middle class family but likely fucked it all up, hence his anger and resentment.
Most definitely not a northerner.

kungfufighter should do as the choo-choo train and kungfu-fuck off.
You’re right. I shouldn’t confuse going to a private school with being well educated.

Brilliant! The Tories and their Brexiters have finally owned up to being the racist party. Admitting that hatng black people, brown people and yellow people is what they're all about.
How? Because they are bloody furious at Channel 4 for likely costing them votes. Why else?
Well done Channel 4 for showing Brexiters' true colours- white only.
Channel 4 has apologised after subtitles below a speech made by Boris Johnson suggested he said he wanted migration of “people of colour”.
Channel 4 said: “Boris Johnson says ‘people of talent’ not ‘people of colour’. Our earlier tweet was a mistake. We misheard and we apologise.”
A senior Tory source said:
This shows why it has been impossible to cooperate with Channel 4 News. They are campaigners in this election, inventing the most damaging things possible to further their campaign against Brexit. This sort of thing is why so many media organisations have collapsing audiences. We sadly do not expect the senior management at Channel 4 to take this terrible mistake seriously and we expect more of the same.
It seems they are also more than partial to a supersized helping of irony: "inventing the most damaging things possible to further their campaign".
They also think; poor people who live in tower blocks are stupid; disabled people don't understand money and therefore should be paid less; and, of course, they absolutely hate the poor.
Big revelations? Of course not. But it is funny how all parts of the establishment are attacking Labour while totally and utterly forgetting the bleedin obvious. I suppose they are managing to pull the wool over the eyes of the dumbest of the dumb- your average Brexit/would be Thatcher supporter.
