Clearly showing yourself up as knowing nothing about politics. The tone and tactics were clearly different. The only common denominator was they they were all tories - probably why you responded as you did |

I take it you agree with her stance that the use of the term 'coconut' has no racist connotations? This is the reason she was being investigated.
She is happy to call out others constatntly for being racist but could not see the prob lems with her own speech.
The term coconut is deeply offensive (as is gammon) but it seems as though many on the left of the political spectrum believe they are OK. |

I find it most amusing when people criticise the Conservatives for freezing the tax personal allownace rate. This rate was hugely increased by the Conservatives during their time in power. It has never been something that rose in line with inflation throughout all its history.
The Conservatives increased it by record margins then you criticise when it isn't increased every year.
Absolutley crazy and goes a long way to highlight how dangeropus it is to liasten to commentators who give little, or no, truthful contaxt to an argument. |

It is exactly this type of sneering attitude that helped get us here in the 1st place.
Please highlight what was right-wing in the original statement? |

Have you seen the policies of the Green party? If you have I am surprised anyone with sense would even consider voting for them.
They are against economic growth
They have committed to borrow £80 billion more annually
They will disband the armed services and replace them with a peace core
That's just the tip of the iceberg......... |

Do you realise how pathetic most of you sound?
On this thread you cringeworthy bunch have criticised
his name
his clothes
his background
Not one of you has bothered to look at his policies.
What a sanctimonious bunch you all seem to be - and the funniest is that most of you think you are better people than the tories you seem to spend your lifetime abusing. |

'dumping sh1t in rivers'
You clearly know nothing about the subject. there is less sewage in the rivers than ay any time in the past 100 years. The Conservatives introduced monitoring on all waterways which is why you hear about it more. It really hasn't got worse but you carry on with your totally incorrect soundbites |

what, if anything is stopping you overpaying tax and making your own extra contributions? Is it the fact that you won't be able to blame everything on 'kleptomaniac tory regimes'?
If you are so sure that you are correct then why do you need someone else to force you to do it.
It is very easy being super virtuous but far more difficult to actually do something about it |

Not surprised to see this debate (as usual on here) descend into an anti-tory argument.
Of course it couldn't be framed as the unions wanting to take down the government (far closer to the truth).
The facts clearly show that Thatcher closed far fewer mines than most, if not all, her recent predecessors. The unions thought they would force the government to back down as they had done before but they clearly forgot that the government had been stockpiling coal in case there was a strike.
It's easy to find the facts about pit closures - just google it. |

If the population grows then the economy must grow with it, unless you really do want the human race to go backwards.
Not wanting growth is far easier to say in an advanced western democracy but how would that leave the devloping world?
Stripping out the politics - which I know is impossible for a lot of you - the economic growth seen in this countyr in the past 100 years has seen living standards and life expectancy to increase dramatically. Unless you want the opposite of this the how would it all be funded? |

Calling her racist got 'liking' the tweets she did is beyond ridiculous, and goes past if the way towards why its difficult to get people to stand for any public office.
The tweets in question, cannot, by any reasonable standards, be described as racist. Agreed that Enoch Powells river of blood speech could be considered so but these were nothing to do with that.
This is clearly just another smear by a politically led organisation that completely ignores similar instances by any left-wing person, such as Sadiq Khan, who once called moderate Muslims 'uncle toms' on the Iranian backed press TV.
The fact that so many of you agree puts you in a similar bracket. |

Perhaps you need to do more research on the subject, rather than relying on one source. A source that clearly has a paticular bias against anything done as a result of Brexit.
A divergence does not automatically mean the standards have dropped, which was the promise. If you could point to a scientific study that proved your point, rahter than an opinionated article then perhaps you post would carry more weight. |

I was quoting a well-renowned climate scientist. I am sure he knows more on the subject than either of us!
He did go into further detail on how the El Nino was affecting the sea temperatures but it was way above my head. |

There was a climate scientist on R4 yesterday talking about the penguin story that is currently in the news. When questioned on this very subject he explained that this years events could well be more down to the El Nino effect than climate change.
Before I get jumped on this does not mean I do not believe in climate change or that I am denying it is happening but you do really have to look at all possible causes before jumpoing to a conclusion that you are not qualigfied to give.
Just look at the graph you posted - apart from this current year what is does show is there has been little change in the Antartctic sea-ice in the last 44 years, |
