When it is backed up by provable facts or by quotes in quotation marks. My objection to papers like the Mail and the Express is not what they report, it is the surrounding and often biased, insinuation and or comments. I think all news outlets do that in the main. Provable facts is a strange concept as one is digesting a 'fact' just in the reporting and how does one verify something reported other than seeking other reports and the two are indeed other reports. I do agree however that there is much misquoting which I find very annoying. I think Jeremy Corbyn was misquoted quite often although when he was not it still raised concerns. The major worry is, and this seems to be rampant on the left, is that misquoting is fair game if it defeats anyone on the RW. I have been taking notice of political comments since around the mid 1950s, and have been very aware of the Conservative trait to use insults, insinuations and denigration as a major plank of their political comments against opposition politicians and policies. This forum has been inundated with such by Righties on this forum, so much so that I had a spell of exposing it.

Only recently I exposed you for denigrating Brown while ignoring the effects of the International Financial Meltdown.

I have been exposed? - I must have blinked and missed it...sorry. With regards to Crash Gordons disastrous reign, I don't feel that you can blame the 'International Financial Meltdown' ( ) for Crash Gordons introduction of a financial regulatory system of the Banks that failed, the lax lending criteria that produced the ridiculous house price boom (and subsequent crash) and the disaster that was PFI. Good try though

Good try though I have asked other slothful thinkers like yourself, what the UK economy would have looked like in 2008 if there had not been an international financial meltdown. Such thinking is blocked by a sickening need to denigrate Brown. Brown had every right to expect Bankers to be educated enough to make positive business decisions in running their banks. PFI financing went down the plughole with the meltdown. Your ingrained political bigotry is quite sickening. But it is no doubt too late to expect you to grow up.

I don't read the Mail because I do not expect to get an honest and objective review of the situation. That is why I'm rooting around for the truth. No one cares . Unfortunately, you are right.

I’m afraid that you think anyone that doesn’t share you devotion of Blair is a righty ,anti semite or in the case of SRB a Maoist infiltrator. Anyway you had a spell,have you lost it or has Harry Potter pinched it?

It's just a shame that it is not shared by many on this forum. People like yourself who resort to posting lies, in this case about me, don't help the quality of the forum either.

Don't you ever give up? No matter how often you are told that people across the political spectrum have a similar opinion of Blair you just post it’s all lies and unfair on the great? man himself. Because I criticise some of what Israel is doing now you call me an anti semite,srb7677 was a long term Labour supporter but because he criticised Blair you called him a left wing extremist,I (sadly) helped vote in the Blair govt,as it happens I think Brown whatever his faults was more principled a man than Blair could ever be. I was just saying that whatever point you’re arguing always results in you calling people liars,you are entitled to your opinion but it’s a bit rich referencing the quality of the forum when you are far from raising it.

See, i was a tory, not any longer, who needs to take a lead from head office. Ha. This is wot i fink of the reds.
motherfokkin germs, full of pitch black lies, a soul the size of a fly, a pigs leg up their wotsits, a plague, christendom free, hypocrites, susurration of cliches, swaggering falsehoods, cheeky young pups, baboons, the mprals of tom cats.
Come to think of it, it applies to all politicians, but the reds are far out in front. Ti be red is to be evil.

I was just saying that whatever point you’re arguing always results in you calling people liars,you are entitled to your opinion but it’s a bit rich referencing the quality of the forum when you are far from raising it. The problem is that too many people post their OPINION of Blair as if it were the truth, when it should in fact be made clear that it is just their opinion. I only refer to anyone as a liar when they post a lie either to me or about me. If your post is anti-Semitic in any way, then I will refer to you as being anti-Semitic. As a politician to be admired I place Brown and Alistair Darling before Blair. I do think of srb as an extremist, so extreme that he attacks the moderate Left and refuses to vote for moderation. Even so, I modified my comment from 'extremist' to 'hard Left' which I then used in all my posts to him thereafter. If you want to comment I suggest you keep up with the facts.

You abuse me then accuse me of posting personal abuse! Its good for a laugh but that's it. Who are these people? Wake up, authoritarianism is as much Right-wing as it is left wing. I'm fortunate in that I rest in the moderate zone of center Left, while your posts suggest you are hard right. Thus your need to insult and to denigrate. You have moderate centre left opinions? Pull the other leg , it has bells on (or are you trying to be amusing? If so you've failed abysmally and should stick to the day job) You've not posted any moderate views on this forum that I've noticed . Your posted views are hard left - you post your opinions as immutable facts , you link the left wing Independent newspaper claiming its editorially unbiased , according to your ego , anyone who dares to disagrees or questions your posts needs re-education , is stupid , uneducated ,misguided , a fool etc etc . As you post that you believe you are ''fortunate'' in your opinion , maybe you should seek counselling or up the memory pills? Thanks for proving my point with your tirade of misguided abusive and dishonest OPINIONS. All posted without any proof. IMO only someone from the hard Right of politics could even begin to think of my political views as "hard Left", but your comment is good for a chuckle at your self exposure. You could certainly do with a big dose of commonsense. Your suggestion about seeking counselling looks like a classic case of projection. Are you actually on medication for mental problems?
