Here is a test open to everyone to guage impartiality. Anyone with a reasonable claim to be impartial ought to be able to provide answers. Name three faults or errors or mistakes made by each of the following. Margaret Thatcher. Comprehensive Education, the Single Market, the dash for gas. PFI, collapse in house building, mass immigration.. Energy policy, Immigration policy, low growth policy.. the rest of the list are nonentities who dont matter.

OK then I'll add Jeremy Corbyn- Lying his way into the Remain campaign to destroy its position
- Wanting to make the Uk Venezuela without the sun
- Wreaking enduring damage on the Labour Party
Your second point in particular is risible. Labour aspired to something akin to the Nordic model, not the Venezuelan one. But alas is it standard practice for centrists to misrepresent the left as extremists using lies, groos exagerrations, and false labels. You just failed the impartiality test

Here is a test open to everyone to guage impartiality. Anyone with a reasonable claim to be impartial ought to be able to provide answers. Name three faults or errors or mistakes made by each of the following. Margaret Thatcher. Tony Blair Nick Clegg Nicola Sturgeon Neil Kinnock David Cameron Jeremy Corbyn. I will give my own repsonses in a following post. Three is probably a stretch for my brain this morning Here’s two Thatcher: right to buy with NO provision of replacement, utter vindictive rejoicing after making millions unemployed Blair: Allowing gays and Lesbians exemption from IR35, Fast Tracked Visa scheme that flooded the UK with Indians with fake IT degrees Clegg: U Turn on Tuition Fees, Failure to demand PNC erasure of witness details Sturgeon: Letting a bloke still equipped with a dick be jailed at a womens prison, being unable to read when it comes to understanding what the Scottish Parliament can, and cannot, d Kinnock: VAT on the Severn Bridge, (which if you know the details reveals his stance over the EU, the real problem) and Naking the fucking shitload out of the EU that he did. Cameron: Failing to get enough support in 2010, and then getting too much in 2015, Appointing that cokehead as Chancellor Corbyn: Telling it how it is with Israel and having a brilliant idea for a defence policy which required absolute secrecy to work, and going on the Andrew Marr show to tell everyone about it.

A failed thread allowing a number of biased unproven opinions to be posted thus proving nothing more than some posters like to express their own particular bias. I suspect that srb7677s repeated attempts to get me to join in with those who get a kick out of lying, insinuating and attacking Blair just might have something to do with this waste of space thread. I knew he was pissed off that I refuse to join them, and now he can remain pissed off because I still refuse to join them

If you are only going to say something rude or mean-spirited, keep quiet instead.

Please read my all encompassing and accurate previous post.

Anyone who is politically impartial is by definition apolitical, and that is certainly not me. Anyone who has any interest in politics will not be impartial/apolitical. They will quite obviously be partial, in most cases very partial. Well said. Unfortunately, there do appear to be people who believe themselves to be impartial. These people can often be quite dangerous in large numbers

I would rather judge people on the outcomes / likely outcomes of their policies, and not constantly question if they are making those decisions in good faith.
99% of politics is about the size and influence of government vs the rights and responsibilities of individuals.
This is why I think the Tories normally win. The Tories have a clear argument for low tax, small government, high personal responsibility. Labour on the other hand, argue for big government and more of a helping hand, but can't seem to make a credible argument for funding it with higher taxes for all.

What party in any country has dominated politics in the 19th 20th and so far the 21st century? Answers on a post card kiddies lol.
