Please keep this up Martin. It’s entertainment.
I’ve been biting my tongue for weeks and have resisted the urged to avoid being called an argumentative tosser, or whatever else it is I’m called when I latch onto Brexit, Tories or anti-Martinez posts!
26 June 2017 at 3:30 pm #160060Blimey lads if politics gets you all so riled and worked up I reckon a change of subject is warranted. There’s more squabbling on here than with Hamilton and Vettel. Calm down boys.
26 June 2017 at 3:31 pm #160061w up.
What’s really putting the fragile peace there at risk ?Martin, now you are exposing your journalistic licence by over exaggerating the fragility of the situation. I suspect you have never visited the Provence’s of Northern Ireland, nor truly know any of the people and communities, and their values and outlook on life; nor will you have any concept about the infrastructure of the country and it’s robust economy. In fact, you have just about managed to insult the majority of the population of Northern Ireland by putting your journalistic size nine straight in, without thought or intelligence. Shame on you !
26 June 2017 at 3:56 pm #160062Well done, Snowblind, by the way for being able to selectively copy and paste from Wikipedia. If you insist on judging him by the positions he adopted 40 years ago, I expect you are similarly disgusted that at the same time the Tories denounced Nelson Mandela as a “dangerous terrorist”, that Mrs Thatcher had the murderous dictator general Pinochet in Downing Street, and was also selling arms arms to prop up Saddam Hussein. These were the same, nice Tories who denounced striking miners as “the enemy within”, and used the aforementioned police, special branch land MI5 to distort the events at Orgreave and Hillsboroygh, and cover up systematic child abuse by politicians visiting children’s homes. Maybe you trust these Tories but I suspect that, given half the chance, they’ll discredit the victims of the Grenfell tower fire and obfuscate its rather obviously political causes in just the same way.. Carry on.Martin, I don’t vote Tory so I’m not sure why you’re bringing them into it, I was commenting on Corbyn and his sympathy’s toward terrorism.
Anyway thanks for the complement regarding my copying and pasting skills if I’m being honest I was amazed I managed to pulled it off.
26 June 2017 at 5:51 pm #160063He isn’t a terrorist sympathiser he is a pacifist. He disagrees with all types of war and will mourn any death from an act of war including the innocents we kill in attacks on Syria. He speaks to these people in the hope of peace. The way the media have twisted it is appalling. Such as showing him “skipping to a war memorial” but not showing the veteran he was skipping with.
And no…I don’t vote labour.

27 June 2017 at 1:13 am #160071[An alliance with the DUP no matter how nutty they may be is still preferable to that clown having anything to do with governing our country.Do you still feel the same knowing now that she’s about to bribe them for that alliance with £1.5bn of our money??
27 June 2017 at 1:21 am #160072So, before the EU came about we competed with GermanyIt’s not difficult to compete for 30 years with a country crippled by its own war, paying reparations and trying to rebuild itself. And while it was rebuilding we rested on our laurels thinking we were cock of the world, got caught up by them and Japan, got overtaken and then took apart our manufacturing industry cos we couldn’t compete any more. Nout to do with us joining the EU and leaving won’t make it any better unless we rebuild like they did.
27 June 2017 at 1:44 am #160076Tories are hypocritical scum. Christ knows why any self-respecting human being would ever want those cnuts in power.
27 June 2017 at 2:23 am #160078Looks like they’ve found the magic money tree.
They had it all along.

£1.5 billion isn’t a great amount in the grand scale of things, and certainly not much in comparison to the alleged £150 billion Jezza would have cost us.
Anyway, you say, “our money.” The last time I looked I’m sure NI was part of “our” country, so if I’m badly mistaken it’s surely their money as well as ours, is it not?
Maybe nowhere north of Watford is part of “our’ country anymore, and perhaps everything should just be spent in and around the capital.27 June 2017 at 12:08 pm #160080You just said that horc? 1.5bn aint alot? Tell that to all the police and emergency servies fired off as we no money and then she finds 1.5bn to get in bed with some loons out GOT.
They all bent.

I never implied it was anything to do with joining the EU that was the problem Galactic? I was pointing out that since the referendum UK manufacturing has benefitted, mainly due to the weakened pound.
27 June 2017 at 11:27 pm #160103I keep reading here that Labour are villainous opportunists. I’ll tell you what looks opportunist to me: wanging on about the dangers of a “coalition of chaos”, “electing terrorist sympathisers” and the “magic money tree”, then forging an alliance with the political wing of the UDA and UVF and giving said money tree a shake to the tune of £1 billion so that Theresa May could keep hold of her job.
As for insulting the whole of NI, Alistair, I would suspect that a good 50% want nothing to do with the DUP, given that they were formed by a joyless Presbyterian who would chain kids’ swings up on a Sunday, called alcohol “the devil’s buttermilk” and marched at the funerals of Loyalist gunmen. The Tory party going into partnership with them – as well as being a huge setback to women’s reproductive rights – makes it impossible for them to be seen as neutral in the talks to restart power sharing at Stormont. So, as I say, they are ripping up the good Friday agreement for political expediency.
Mind you, the Unionist community shouldn’ get too complacent, either. Few have done more to harm to the Union in recent years than David Cameron with his referendum that was only ever designed to end a dispute in the Tory party but now threatens the breakup of the UK and the return of a hard border with the Republic. Good work there, Tories.
