If you would vote for the conservative party right now, I would gladly call you a thicko to your face.I do wonder how some on here manage face to face discussions with someone who, let’s say has a different opinion to them
If they find themselves backed in to a corner or struggle to answer a question is the solution to unleash a tirade of abuse or just blurt out your a thicko.
Me thinks it’s probably reserved for the keyboard.
(If you would vote for the Tories now) Either, you aren't incredibly wealthy and you're a thicko, or you are incredibly wealthy and you're a greedy, horrible bar steward. There are no alternatives and to debate otherwise would be futile.
In my constituency, Stretford, and Urmston, 16% of people definitely aren't 'incredibly wealthy', so I can only deduce that they're thickos.
(Apologies to any resident thickos on the comparison of you to a Tory voter).

Brilliant input, that really takes the debate forward.It’s you’re or you are !!!
Even some of those who feel like you do must think WTF.
Get away, the Oxford English language dictionary know where to go for their next editor.Methinks is one word too.
Is that honestly, the best you can do to get your point over.
Shouldn’t there be a question mark at the end of your post?… haha! Only kidding, I’m not nearly smart enough to be correcting others on their grammar. :-)Get away, the Oxford English language dictionary know where to go for their next editor.

I assume you don’t know many people who are incredibly wealthy, whatever that means ,in numerical terms.If you would vote for the conservative party right now, I would gladly call you a thicko to your face.

But then again, I don’t know many who are thickos ( by the way to those on here where correct grammar is essential, I am aware there is no such term) or what matrix you apply to define them.
What I do know is that most people , rightly or wrongly think they make a better job of spending their hard earned, than the Government can do with it.
So yes they will happily say in front of anyone oh yes we should spend more on this and that and the public services should all get inflationary pay rises but when it comes to paying for it they are only in favour if it’s them not picking up the bill via higher taxes.
That’s human nature I am afraid.

You think you debate ?
You spout crap as if you’re the font of all knowledge and can’t construct a proper sentence.
You want to debate? I’ll give you a debate, if that’s what you want. But first you’ll have to come up with a coherent point. Or you can go back over my posts and argue against any points I’ve made.
Before you criticise others on sentence construction you need to do a little bit of homework on diacope.You think you debate ?

Nothing worse than early retirees who object to foreigners taking what used to be their jobs.Thing is, they're not even that thick, at least some of them aren't. They're just so blinded with hatred for the Labour party and Corbynista politics (some still conflate the man with the party; as if socialism would ever take off in a global, western economy) that they can't summon the integrity to vote for change. They're obdurate to the point of self-destruction. It's as if the country hasn't been ravaged and picked to it's bare carcass in the last decade.
The Tory party have large portions of the electorate eating out of their hands for two reasons.
1.) We are a country of xenophobes and closeted racists. Truth hurts. The vast majority aren't, I will qualify. But there's a definite undercurrent; and the ultra-nationalist drum that the Tories have been banging ever since the Brexit referendum played on these sentiments. The Tories were the biggest advocates for divorcing from the EU, and the nationalist lemmings in this country lapped it up. All of a sudden, Johnson and his vanguard of Cronyism were the countries saviours. Even in staunch red seats, the tide turned because too many believe immigration to be the great scourge of this nation, and now the Tories were promising to restrict Jozef from Poland coming here to work every hour that God sends, picking fruit or delivering takeaways to the greedy cunts who sit on their arse and bemoan their belonging in this country in the first place.
2.) Division has never been starker. We live in the information age. The digital age. The phenomena of gratuitous information and minute-by-minute news has exploded exponentially since the Tories came to power. This digital age has led to firmly entrenched ideals and values. Once you've nailed your colours to the mast, that's you. The wriggle room for open-mindedness is zero. The Tories have large swathes of the electorate doing their job for them online. The ministers take their gross mistruths, dress it up in florid Oxbridge rhetoric, dump it into the digital space, and the lemmings disseminate the narrative until it's accepted as truth.
It's a sorry fucking state of affairs, really.
