Hey, your signature is impressive, man!

 

There's more than one way to skin a cat Swati (metaphorically speaking of course cos I love cats).

 

Chris, some metaphorical cats skin themselves with their own self-destructive doing. Now that's a hilarious situation.

Here, Camo is skinning himself in order to save his skin. Not the best. But at least he's the type of cat who knows what he's doing, and why he's doing it. Still, quite a shameful display in public, and the oppositions' lashes on his under-skin are going to hurt bad!

Resistance, when played like that, is a tool of a fool, not of a wise man. He seems to think he's wise, but I think his non-participation in debate will cost him the loss of some of his little remaining popularity.

Mind you, taking part in the debates with irrational and defensive over worded bollox is also self-destructive, so as per FP's #12, he would have weighed both probabilities and then decided to stay out. At least he's not stopping others to have a debate. If he did that, then that would be the more drastic public display of his self-destruction, in which he would eat his own under-skin. Democracy and all that.

 

very good. That's a way to make a stand against the accepted norms. Question is how long till one of the mods has a strop over it.

As for this thread, who actually cares? The concept of televised debates is just a American *******isation of our political system. Realistically those that want to know more about party politics will look for it and those that don't won't. A televised debate won't change that and realistically all it tells you is who is the best speaker.

 

No strop from me, but its been noticed.

All this debate...if I bother to watch it (probably will just read the summary on the web), won't change my view that not one candidate should run this country. The despair of it all is having to vote as such that it doesn't allow the worst of the most likely candidates to win the election.

Sadly I think we're succumbing to a Labour victory. Debate or no debate.

 

How very noble of you!

Quite a few people here care about politics and political events. Every now and again there are threads about politics here, and people debate actively on them. As such debates do take place on British TV now, regardless of where the concept has come from, the issue of this debating is bigger than who the best speaker is. We know who the best speaker is. That ear bashing Cameron who's copping out. It's the contents of the debate as a whole that is freaking him out. His non-participation to them may give even more publicity to these American-style debates, and Mr. Farage may shine like a 40W light bulb in front of dimming Milliband. His party has no track record to have a go at, so he'll rip Ed apart. I'm interested in watching that for sure. I care!

 

sounds like an ugly contest

 

Yes. Politicians bickering at each other is no news, really. As a spectator, one can have 'what's your point' approach to cut the crap and derive whatver sense that can be derived; out of that contest. Or, one can simply watch for mere thrill because one enjoys conflict. You get all sorts.

 

Noted and now removed I see! The truth hurts I guess!

 

Wow you caved easily

 

Huh?

 

I think Neil thinks you deleted it yourself.

Anyway, let's carry on with Cameron chickening out topic on this thread, rather than the cats that are out to skin themselves.

 

i think they should all perform in their underpants ,


having said that - no females


scrub that

 

*cough* Natalie Bennett *cough*

Or were you being misogynistic?

 

I don't think I'd like to see that sight, but that debate will be a top seller!

 

His context could be as sarcastic as yours at yours, so you can't be sure, really. Moreover, with you being around, he need not give a sh7t, anyway.

 

Forgot to say, Nigel would be most frightening in his undies, I reckon.

 

I've had a thought about this, imagine if there was some sort of attack during the main debate, be it a UK lone nutter or a terrorist that successfully killed all the current leaders of each party (no harm to the public/audience).

Would you rejoice, or mourn their death?

...Or would you sink into further despair at the shower of shyte (politicians) that will scurry around to take their respective leader's place?

 

BTW I'm not planning anything.

...honest.

 

Christ, that would be an extreme act of terrorism, even if that lone nutter is to be a white British person with nothing to do with Islam! Why would someone rejoice something like that???

No, you won't just let any gutter party to take over. In situation like that, you also don't find the first random geezer from the street to make him a PM. If that was the case, Farage would have had the best chance going, even if he was shot in the leg.

I reckon if we leave it upto Noel Gallagher, he may just make someone random a PM, though. His out of the box thinking may just save the country!

 

You said it, you know.

 

Yeah. The thought occurred to me that for the disillusioned voter, there is no democratic way to get rid of the current leaders of the main political parties. Hence the more non-democratic methods.

I expect the turnout to be even lower this year. That means the majority of the UK's population are non-voters. Compare that to the turnout for the Scottish referendum; Give people someone/something worth voting for and they'll come out in droves. Something severely drastic needs to change in UK politics to have something like that happen here.

 

That was pretty much my assumption but reading Chris' post back I could be wrong. In which case that's pretty poor form from who ever did delete it.

 

Nope not deleted by me, mods/admin removed it I guess.

 

wow. You'd have thought who ever it was would've had the ***** to own up to it. Mind you I've just read the comments from Stu in your other thread, yeah...

 

I know, it's bewildering really isn't it? Anyway Swati would like for this thread to be kept on topic so let's respect her wishes.

 

You know why, though. I don't want people power tripping here any further. I don't have any taste for that.

I think it's absolutely appalling that your signature has been deleted, and you know that, too.

 

Signature


thought it was whinge whine whinge ?



( repeat )

 

You and thinking..... nah

 

Insulting someone for being thick is no better than insulting someone for their race, height, weight, sexual preference, religion, hair colour etc etc.
If you are sick of reading certain insults then I suggest you start with the ones you dish out on a daily basis.

I'll say no more on the subject, as the intention of your signature was to create even more arguments.
