haha, sorry was trying to get it down to your ignorant level.

Simply put you have no idea what your talking about, your just ranting at the media reports and what you have made up in your mind as the truth.

O dear, your trolling realy is making you look stupid

No I am saying that water and energy should not be in the hands of private companies. It is as simple a statement as that!

I am sorry if you can't get your head round that as a concept, but you calling me stupid as a result is hypocrisy at its finest!

For instance at least I can use the words you're and your correctly! You, however....

Now maybe you think that were they state owned you might not have a job or earn quite as much which would explain your bluster, but based on your exchanges in here I am bewildered you can hold down a job.... I do hope it doesn't involve writing anything as I am sure there are retarded gibbons out there with a better grasp of English!

Actually I have no shares in British Gas, neither does anybody else for that matter, I assume you refer to Centrica, in which I have no shares either.

Yes, I am proud of what I have achieved in life, especially considering I left school with SFA in the way of qualifications, just what is so wrong with that. Hard work never hurt anybody. You don't like it, fair enough, that's your choice which you are entitled to but to revert to name calling is a little silly don't you think. It's a forum, please don't take everything on here so seriously, I certainly don't

Point out where I have said that I am blaming them.

What argument? LOL!

The ONLY thing I have said is that the water companies should not be in private hands. You have decided to attribute a load of other conjecture to me as if I have said it when fact is I haven't said any such thing.

Maybe you have an agenda here, but unless it is an agenda to sound like a f**king imbecile it's not working

Now you see what I'm struggling to understand is why F1_fan, a outspoken anti-government poster. Seems to think that privatising utilities is a good idea.

Obviously the only thing that 'self-serving, lying, nose in the trough, scum politicians' are good at is supplying us with safe drinking water

Regarding the state owning these industries it would of course be an idealistic view .... the ideal being having politicians we could trust! We don't have that which is why the utilities industries got sold off for about half of their net worth in order to buy votes from Joe Public! Self serving greedy pigs at the trough indeed!

You do realise you've just created a completely circular argument

No it isn't

Hey, given the two of you have a propensity for carping from the sidelines without offering any ideas or opinions of your own why don't you call each other up and leave the forum to those of us who at least have something to say!

Whatever Martin, your contributions are nothing but these days, at least I start threads and try and discuss a few topics. You just come in here, tell everyone they're wrong without ever offering any evidence as to why and then disappear until a few days later you do it all again! The fact you can't see it is laughable and somewhat pathetic!

Way to present an argument there Batman.

I went through the previous page and can count at least 4 times where you tried to say that utilities would be better ran by the public sector.

Then as soon as your logic was questioned as it goes against your usual anti-government ranting, you change your tune and start trying to make out that all your previous comments were hypothetical/idealistic. Then proceed to rant about the government.

I'd say that was a back track that Eric Pickles would be proud of personally.

Carp carp carp....

I'd say you don't understand the point being made as it's a bit too intellectual for you!

Given the fact you've resorted to that level of reply, I'd suggest it's in fact you who is intellectually deficient.

Think what you like, I couldn't care less tbh!

At the end of the day you clearly don't understand the point being made so there's not much more I can say!

No i fully understand the point you're making. That doesn't change the irony of someone who is very anti-government stating that something should be controlled by a government ran organisation.

Besides, if you believe I don't understand your point. Then surely the skilled debater rewords his point so that it can be understood, rather than doing what the standard NSR poster does and start name calling/ridiculing the other party.
