Excellent point. I must post some self regarding bullshit in a desperate need for validation. In that way and that way alone can I prove myself to be an elite intellectual.

True. Starmer is clumsy but I don't think as black as he's painted. There's a lot of foundational work needs doing for the good of the country
Hopefully some progress with that.

Do you really wonder why the populace find you ludicrous? Why the accusations of a cult get levelled at you? I'm of the political position that could be persuaded to shift my allegiance in your direction. Yet you have nothing to offer but arrogance.

Well, there's a whole ball of batshit crazy. General election results. He lost. Repeatedly.

His failure is a matter of public record, not opinion.

I'm just so in awe of your superior political education and understanding. Completely unexpected and in no way utterly arrogant. You're a God amongst mere mortals.

This is why the left wing cannot be allowed near control of Labour ever again. This utterly ludicrous inability to address the real World. Corbyn lost repeatedly. It was his job to win. You still haven't replaced him and you're still whining on. You have nothing to offer.

And the take away from that is Starmer got elected.

What a wonderful piece of art.

Just to reiterate my point, it's never your fault, is it? And what have you done since to create something worthy of a vote? Nothing other than weep over Corbyn which illustrates why you aren't worthy of being elected. Do better.

Are you going to send me a dick pic next to show me how much better you are than the common man?

Do you not sense that you are repeatedly underlining my point? Anyway, have a chill night. I certainly will.

That's me told. I should just do what the elitists say and not bother at thinking because they do it so much better than us proles. And it's in no way a common problem for the left. Not arrogant in the slightest.

30.10.2025 17:43 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

Clearly I am not worthy.

I actually think those further left than me should have a strong voice so I try to be clear about what would give them credibility, at least in my view. But the responses are largely copy and paste rhetoric of little comprehension.

30.10.2025 16:59 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 2    πŸ“Œ 0

I rest my case.

Another deflection. You're not getting it, are you? Offer something worthy of attention.

Your response is pretty much exactly what I expected. Left wing elitism. And I'm trying to point you in a direction that would get my interest. Get a leader who could do the job rather than just talk about it. Corbyn is rightfully gone.

30.10.2025 14:43 β€” πŸ‘ 2    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 5    πŸ“Œ 0

This is one of the disappointments of the left. It's always someone else's fault. And there's a certain arrogance in believing that others don't understand the nuances of politics. He failed repeatedly, was a poor leader and is gone. Find a new champion.

And winning all those elections!

Which would assume there is good will on the other side of the table. There never is. And that would fuel a broken EU. It was flawed before but much better to fix from within a powerful economic and cultural trading bloc.

Or what? Endless stagnation?

Apparently it's not exactly what we told them it would be, it's the "wrong" Brexit.

As another bearded old man I've got the Knutsford 10k next week. Won't be as fast as that but will be trying to approach a PB before doing a half 6 weeks later. So better get off my arse and do today's long run.

Obviously would’ve wanted more points but good performance and their keeper on really good form. Grounds for optimism. #nffc

A much improved performance, creating enough chances to have won it.

Man Utd are basically the kid who picked on you at school that became bloated and balding in adulthood, constantly gets belittled at work and desperately leaps from one failed relationship to the next since their marriage ended
