Ge 2017

I see the thread once again descended into childish insults and the same person in the middle of it
 
Yes, you being saintimonious again. Shame you're not the same in the footie thread.

Point out where people are insulting each other on that thread. It maybe repeatative at times and people may need to agree to disagree and it's full of gentle ribbing but it's not full of the level of insults that the political threads are full of with you smack in the middle of it.
 
Apparently chief whip on way to Belfast to negotiate a formal coalition with DUP, desperate times from May, DUP will have her over a barrel but she wont care, anything to cling on to power. Wonder if she'll say 'no deal is better than a bad deal' this time? Doubt it.
 
Does she know what the likely effect of this coalition will be on the NI peace process? Does she care? Is she that desperate for power?? Shocking, and quite frankly shameful if true.

Shows how low the political landscape of the nation has gone when the DUP have a say in then running of the country

Such a pathetic state of affairs when there is not one single person worthy of leading our nation.

We laughed at the state of the US with Trump , expect most are laughing at us now

What is it that makes a person worthy to lead our nation?

That's as arrogant as some of SR's posts, what if Corbyn is a man of his word? He got the backing of a lot of people, what if May does get the right Brexit deal after the backing she got, are all voters stupid/ignorant/clueless

Did you vote this time or spoil your paper and if you voted was the leader of that party unworthy?

You have a very low opinion of democracy.

Ouch! That hurt. I prefer 'opinionated'

Can someone explain why people vote for Sinn Fein when their mp's don't go to Westminster? Totally wasted vote.

I understand why in NI elections but in a GE it seems entirely pointless.

To answer that you'd need to delve deeply into 500 years of Irish history, not really the place here imo.
 
That is why I added the point about NI elections. I DO understand that. Is there not another party in NI that has similar views but would actually represent the constituents at Westminster?
