Anyone you know? on 16:41 - Sep 17 by eireblue | So you agree with me, finance things like interest rates affect house prices, not immigrants. And you have gone back to taking about immigration again instead of population size. You are correct, I am not going to agree that framing the argument in terms of look it’s 1 person in a 100 causing the issue or 1 person in 150 people that is causes the issue. That one person isn’t the issue. Explain to me this, there are 50 people currently living and working in Turkey, they have absolutely zero influence on a local council building a new house or a government creating a new garden city, or that Barrett Developments are going start building X houses in Shropshire. They live in Turkey. So if they move to the U.K. in 2028, boo, immigrants we shouldn’t have let them in. Absolute nonsense. How are they at fault. Okay let’s do the Lowhouse/Farage thing. You people in Turkey, don’t even think about. Barrett Developments, thanks Lowhouse, we will build more houses now, we weren’t going to but now we are. Because you have 1 immigrant per 150 instead of 1 immigrant per 100. I don’t think building companies think like that. If a person can’t get a house, I don’t think you should get angry at the people currently in a house. Or are going back to old school Tory excuses, darn young women getting knocked up just because they want a council house, let’s blame teenagers. By the way, Farage when put under any sort of pressure, is against controlling the numbers of people. He just says the things you are saying to get people angry, then quietly when questioned will say, yes of course we should allow people in to support industry as needed. If people feel angry, you should tell them to be angry at the people that govern the 100, not blame the 1 new guy. |
what a lot of words just to avoid answering a simple question. i'm also not convinced that the order you've put them in makes much sense. hey ho. |  |

I don't agree.... on 17:00 - Sep 17 by giant_stow | Thanks for caring Blueas, but I don't think I'm strong enough to talk about right now. (being serious, the last one was that women who got done for manslaughter on a cyclist in Huntington. Because I argued it was a miscarriage of justice, The Crowd decided that I was anti-cyclist, barking up conspiracy theory trees, ignoring legal facts and generally repulsive. She was later found not guilty on appeal and there was not one single apology) [Post edited 17 Sep 17:01]

I apologise for my part in that, Ulla. I didn't see it as a pile-on but several of us trying to persuade you where we disagreed with you. I certainly didn't see it as personal either. I was surprised by the verdict being overturned and can't recall the full details when that happened. I think there were issues over a lack of remorse, lack of legal support and the lady at the centre of the case having learning difficulties. As I say, though, I am sorry you felt that was a pile-on and I apologise for my part in that. |  |

I don't agree.... on 16:06 - Sep 17 by Bloots | ....obviously. It is absolutely the way it pans out, it's literally happening now and it'll probably happen again later today. We often see a poster get told that they are talking rubbish, followed by an immediate flurry of posters saying the same thing and then hours or even days later someone who didn't get the opportunity to have a go earlier piles in and has their say. To be clear it's not just politics where this happens, although that is obviously the subject that creates the most division. In my opinion people on here need to rein in their desire to stick the knife in at every opportunity. Some will agree, some won't agree (you included), I can live with that. |
Rubbish. |  |

I don't think this is an accurate representation of why you copped some flak in that thread. Halfway through the discussion you appeared to try blaming the victim for their death. It was an appalling thing to say. Having re-read it, I'm struggling to see why it's scarred you. It's not like you got 97 downvotes or something. There was some robust debate in there but you also had supporters. weird story: pedestrian jailed for causing death of a cyclist by giant_stow 9 Mar 2023 9:36If cars speed down a 3 lane 40mph limited road, because everyone does it, does that mean no one's speeding in law?
Re your last point, why has no one asked why the cyclist didn't swerve to the inside? If she had, no death. If the path was so wide and plentiful, that should have been an option. [Post edited 18 Sep 2:49]

I’m going to take issue with you here BDS. I’d say it’s hypocrisy, not rubbish. |  |

There are a couple of posters who are on my ignore list because of their childish bullying tactics. I have requested they, in turn, put me on ignore, to save the forum from the negativity. Unfortunately they have refused my request, despite Phil also asking them, and so, although I can't see what they post, it becomes pretty obvious and the downvotes continue to be used for their weird amusement. It just makes a mockery of Phil's demands for the pettiness to stop. They know who they are and It's clear from this thread that others are also fed up with their nonsense. Oh well, Up the Town! |  |

I reject its unreasonable to discuss driver/cyclist/opperator skill in trying to fathom out a contributory cause of an accident. You continue with with emotive, very of-the-moment language like 'appalling' though. [Post edited 18 Sep 10:46]
