Question for Expat

[SallyAnne]

I like Expat.

Even when he rebuts my rubbish (which is most of the time).

You can just tell that he's a good egg (wherever that expression comes from).

Wise like owl.

I don't rebut political positions, Cyberman, I rebut rubbish.

talk & write endless

Wise like owl.

Talk like Yoda you do.

I did not rebut that suggestion, I successfully rebutted the suggestion that the reason that Healey went to the IMF was budget deficits. It wasn't, the reason was exchange rate support problems. Do you understand the difference?

Since I am not a NL-ite, I have no desire to riposte on NR nationalisation. As it happens, I think it is wrong for Govt to enforce a sale at a given low price, when some shareholders might be prepared to hold on for any value that might still be there (in fact I seem to remember posting just such recently). More wrong when the Govt has partly caused the low share price by their own previous announcements (they've shorted it, in a way), and doubly so when they will then use their special powers to profit out of it later.

I don't rebut political positions, Cyberman, I rebut rubbish.

He went to the IMF because of the deficit due to profligate spending. You deny this but just do a search on the internet and the reasons you give just don't tie up.

Brown will end up going to the IMF for the same reasons...... wait and see.......... tick tock tick tock.....

What is it with you today?

Are you in any way associated with that horrid Derek Draper that Guido warned us about the other week?

I like Expat he tries to give a balance interpretation of events. Far too many here are quick to criticise this government (often rightly so) but are blind sided when the Cons had made similar mistakes, out of their control/market forces etc, yeah right....

Yet somehow Labour have an amazing ability to control things the Tories couldn't, which surely points to the Tories being ineffectual? A Conservative Government won't be some kind of utopia with free BJs on the NHS, however I'm sure it will be better than this one.

Please explain this amazing ability that New lie have to control things. They seem to have the opposite problem with:

spending
immigration
knife crime
the banks
unions
debt
unemployment
SATS

... the Bishop of Birmingham told delegates at the Conservative Party conference that he greeted them “in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ”. It was as though he and the Son of God had been speaking just that morning and JC had said to the Bish: “Do say hello to the Tories from me.”

Cammeron was created to fight a foe that is no longer there: B'Liar. He is his clone, but that war is over.

If ever, and I still believe it is not as certain as some people think, they ever get to form another government then many people will be very disapointed with what they get. In most respects the Conservatives are just as bad as nuLieBore.

You support the Tories like a football team so I'm wasting my energy...but
I don't think most of those things would be much different. Less public sector spending maybe. Immigration: come on, who started this immigration mess?

Things are not going to change that much, look at the manifestos. I just want government out of my face so I will vote Diet Pepsi this time as opposed to the full sugar version

[HairyArsedBloke]

Credit where credit is due - nuLieBore have got excellent control over most parts of the broardcast media.
