I find that quite a worrying thought process tbh. You’re saying you would have voted or did do for a candidate on the basis of other people’s actions (or even thoughts about them) over the individuals actions themselves. Each to their own but we’re really fucked if everyone thought that way.

That is so depressing to read and I feel incredibly sorry for your daughter and for you. I find that one of the most worrying aspects in terms of how much we’ve allowed the current division and rhetoric to get into the next generation already. I’ve got three kids in education at different levels...

It’s just indicative of just how ridiculously high a bar both Pep and our players (including those that have left that don’t get that fond a comments any more) have set that this is considered a crisis. For any other club, missing out on three titles wouldn’t be a crisis. For us, it’s losing...

If Trump implements policies that detrimentally impact any of those, which I think is extremely likely, then absolutely enough of that group will change their mind next time. It’s not just one group when you think about the logic or motivations they’re using to place their vote. If it was...

Think you’ve missed my point. They believe right now it will fix the country. When they implement those things and then start to see the real world impact including on themselves, it becomes a very different matter and a lot harder to maintain.

Thing is, once in power there really isn’t that many hiding places. If they do implement everything they say they’re going to do then they’ll fuck the country up that much they won’t be in power for a long time. If they don’t implement it as they meet the constraints in the real world, some of...

Both have those abilities, it just depends on personalities and the political situation for those camps at the time. Right now you’re correct.

It’s not actually John Lewis, it’s a guy called Sam Clegg that does John Lewis style ads each year for charity. He makes the whole ad and the songs himself.

The issue I’ve got is it shows the weakness of the underlying argument if you’ve got to continually be disingenuous. The problem is we’re so far into the post truth world nowadays that people do just swallow it. It’s just so depressing that political arguments seemingly aren’t won on actual...

I agree, never said he was. Just saying where the misinformation was mainly coming from this time round.

Russian interference did though, they didn’t need that this time round though as Musk was doing it all for them anyway!

I wasn’t trying to answer your question, I was just pointing out the allegation of mass voter fraud not being needed.

Don’t need that last sentence, this isn’t Twitter…

Trump winning and republicans having control of the senate. Scary times.

Thought we looked the best we’d looked in a while in the first half and could easily have been three up and we’d all be saying what crisis. Second half though, we looked so vulnerable again. It’s not just the talent on the pitch we’re missing with the injuries, it’s the leadership and...

Thought it was the best we’d looked in a while in the first half too. We’re missing personalities more than anything at the mo. Too many big leaders out.

Thing is though I’ve not seen any other way of dealing with it work either. Reasoning doesn’t work, Goves comment of “we’ve had enough of experts” is more prevalent now than ever. What were previously trusted institutions are constantly targeted. Over time it gets to a point where the more...

There is a balancing act as to how much you allow opinions that aren’t based on any actual factual evidence to grow and be amplified though, particularly nowadays in a post truth world. How to deal with that, I don’t think anyone’s worked out yet. The internet and social media spawned far...

The one I saw Norris said Russell deserved to win it and Verstappen was lucky. That was straight after the race though.

I’m not sure about that, he was held up at the back of the queue, would have been tough to get past all of them and Russell and Norris had pace when they were clear at the front.
