Hey, you could be a labour supporter and jaded.

I bloody ain't! Although I was a bit pinko as a teenager. Then I grew up.

Hah! Not real age. What about me, given I hate Tony Blair, New Labour and all who sail in her?

No nastiness intended, you are still my second favourite.

You haven't proven your point. I've suggested a book to read and you've said I've taken it as gospel, not the case at all, see my previous responses. You accused me of being intolerant, I've said there is another way of looking at things.

Do you donate to charity ?

I have not said you are intollerant, I'm just trying to gues the age of posters by what the believe to be true. There are few independant opinions in this world, most of what we believe is our own has been implanted.

I didn't google it, it's pretty obvious really from the way you throw it in that you've taken somebodies else's mantra as gospel. I have an informed unbrainwashed point of view.

Now stop the nastiness! ;-)

Took you a while to google that one, fluffy !

Well, not really, it would give you a little more information about something you seem to know nothing about AND then you would be able to have an informed point of view.

That coincides with your opinion, that would make a dull argument wouldn't it?

What makes you say that ?

FFS:

In so far as New Labour has a fairy godmother, Polly is the girl. She incarnates all the nannying, high-taxing, high-spending schoolmarminess of Blair's Britain. She is the defender and friend of everyone whose non-job has ever been advertised in the Guardian appointments page, every gay and lesbian outreach worker, every clipboard-toter and pen-pusher and form-filler whose function has been generated by mindless regulation. Polly is the high priestess of our paranoid, mollycoddled, risk-averse, airbagged, booster-seated culture of political correctness and 'elf 'n' safety fascism. In an ideal Polly Toynbee world, private sector broadcasting would be banned, Rupert Murdoch would be nationalised, and the BBC would hire thousands more taxpayer-funded social affairs correspondents to psalm the benefits of social democracy

very well put
