Indeed you are correct. Scotland doesnt have any comedy or comedians, we are indeed sad and uncultured. Please we do not deserve your pity, please continue rofl'ing.
You must learn to differentiate between a Theory and a Hypothesis . You must also learn to read and work out the significance of details . Through your own stupidity you have managed to give credence to some light hearted leg pulling . Scotty people can be so boring .
I have voted Labour all my life as have my family. I viewed it as the only answer to the Tories who are controlled by big business and the Uber rich to attack we working class. But for the last 20 years, the middle class politically correct have taken control of Labour, and the so-called "socialists" are no more. Labour had lost the last election due to their imposing the will of the politically correct onto people who HATE the politically correct and know what they're up to. That, and the allowing of muslim countries to flood europe in what is to all intents an INVASION, have made us all aware just what the so-called "socialists" are these days. Muslim bigotry and extremism, and the reluctance of French socialists to criticize the muslim immigrants will lose the French Socialists their election I didn't vote Labour at the last British election. I won't be voting Labour ever again due to these reasons - the politically correct middle class heterophobes and the uninvited muslim fanatics.
So why the palistinian flag as an avatar ? That the sense of humour or just politically correct pomposity ?
Because white liberals were brainwashed into thinking they are very bad people for being white and now they need to pay back whatever ancestors did. Would love for them to go to Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Nigeria, etc and try to live the same way they do now... lets see how people welcome them, im sure full of tolerance and open to new cultures.
I am sure I can not find a White liberal anywhere who thinks they are bad .To the contrary , the vast majority tend to very narrow minded and most delighted with their unaffordabe social spending plans . To suggest that they might take a voluntary move to a country which is a slum in comparison ,is similar to asking me to swap my car for a rickshaw-- bilge , as we say . There is no point to it . Unless you have pretensions to second rate sainthood .
I dont want them to move, i would just like for them to see how they are treated when they are a minority. Lets treat arabs like if they were at home when we cant practice Christianity in Saudi Arabia, Nigeria, Iraq, etc. Lets keep allowing them to build mosques when we cant build one church in Saudi Arabia. Lets keep giving free housing and welfare to refugees and ilegal immigrants when whites are harassed in Africa. Should i keep going with examples?
Believe it or not, its actually something I genuinely believe in supporting. I argue for them here all the time and am quite skilled in the history. But hey, maybe its all just pomposity, being a scot, then yes definitely it must be. We are a bunch of (*)(*)(*)(*)(*), all of us. Especially you Viv and Alexa....
So now you think the British don't know what goes on and are unaware of unjust and just plain disgusting practises ? Oh ye of little faith !! Why do you think we have the most sophisticated , elegant and results driven Diplomatic Service in the world? I shall remind you . It is because we know what are the best and most efficient ways of bringing change . Cleverly , because fundamental changes in attitude need time and caution before they are widely accepted .
I would prefer driving them to airport back to home countries, dont need to spend money in armbands, crisis you know . Dont try the politically correct BS with me because i dont care about it, they dont belong there and thats all that matters. Raymondo: the British obviously have no clue of whats going on, if they did they wouldnt have let London become Baghdad mixed with New Delhi, or they wouldnt have let many Brits without jobs when a paki or indian or arab or african has one.
Ignoring the huge exaggeration . Why not? What is your problem ? What do you think is our problem? Are you sure that what you think is our problem isn't really your problem?
In my opinion, the majority of people who vote for the left just want the welfare benefits, work less, earn more etc... They don't understood that a lot of left's ideal aren't realists...
Hello Clarisse and welcome to the forum. I vote Scottish National Party for the sole aim of getting my country out of the European Union. However, I have been know to vote Labour, which is traditionally the party of the left in UK although it has moved more to the centre in recent years in order to attract voters. I would like to point out that I have never been unemployed and I vote for the left because I believe in civilised society the strong protect the weak and in developed, economically advanced countries there is no excuse for people to starve...it is possible for all of society to live and thrive. The only aim of the economy to me, is to improve life for everyone. I don't believe it is beneficial for 5% of society to have 90% more money than they can ever spend or need while 90% of society have less than they need.
Hello; thanks you, I'm nice to met you! You're right, I think to we must help the people who "aren't rich"; but I don't think a left gouvernement is well for help them... Left idea destroy the economy, and when the enconomy is destroy, that's always the "poor" people who suffer more...
No. People vote for "the Left" because they stand, in general, on the side of the working man and working woman. This whole "they are in it because of the benefits" is so cliché, and truely anchored in Conservative bigotism. Let us suppose you are unemployed, and you don't have any right on "unemployment insurance", then you receive "benefits". If you are single, and not living with someone, you receive around €880/month. The average rent for a teeny weeny studio is around €400/month. So, you've got around €500 left to buy, and pay, for all neccesities: water, electricity, gas, food, shoes, clothes, soap, etc. Why don't you try it for a month? That said, some people are (*)(*)(*)(*)ing lazy and they shouldn't receive any mercy as far as I'm concerned -- I'm paying around €30.000/year taxes to make sure my fellow citizens receive a good education, can attend university, don't starve from hunger, that we have good roads, a great railroad network, modern buses and trams that run on time, etc. I don't wish to pay for some African refugee that was allowed in our country, but can't find any work because he or she is unwilling to learn Dutch, and sits in their apartment the whole day watching some badly directed African soap-opera. Meanwhile, they are running around with the newest GSM in their pockets, but when you enter their apartment they are living like a monk or nun in the 8th century. Not that I wish to stereotype, but there are far more people like that than most people are aware of. How do I know? Well, let us just say my group of friends are rather diverse and that I'm great at relating to all sorts of people -- except for spoiled rich (*)(*)(*)(*)(*)es (men and women). Solidarity is a truely great thing -- but it needs to work both ways!
Left wing politics don't always destroy the economy. It's more that they use the profits for social programmes, rather than focusing the economy on supporting private gain. Where a right wing government might lower taxes for the top earners, a left wing government will build schools or invest in upgrading hospitals.
