I have been out, not ignoring you, so let's get to the bottom of this. I have never called a member of Gransnet "scum". That is what you accused me of.
Why did the phrase come up? This is the whole post. Very generalised and limited to those Tory voters - anywhere - who saw nothing immoral in the lack of honesty, integrity, probity and morality we saw in the election.
Quote Honesty, integrity, probity, morality.......we are talking politicians here and few on any side of the political divide have those attributes, are you confusing politicians with bishops? End Quote.
My reply No, we never expected to hear the whole truth from politicians but the level of lying - sheer out and out lying is the worst I ever remember. Is it because we are at war - no. Is it to protect negotiations - no. It is not even presenting the better side. It is absolute lies, particularly to Northern Ireland, only for the sake of the Brexit Tory and Boris Johnson's career.
I did not think my view of some Tory supporters could sink further but the morality of those who would support this is definitely called into question. Just how stupid would you have to be to support someone prepared to do this to others in the mad belief they will not do it to you and yours?
Do not trust a Tory, folks. Even one who is only voting for them. They are the scum of the earth if they go along with this as if it were nothing.
I still believe this. If someone, as a Tory, was so self-serving, selfish, greedy and grasping they would suggest it was normal to use lies, obfuscation and deception to the level we saw it from the government during the election, simply to get into power to protect their wealth and to accumulate more then they are pretty low on the scale of reasonable human beings in my view. But that could quite easily be no one on here - or not. I certainly don't know which is why I spoke generally.
I am not in the least surprised no one reported it at the time or, if they did (and we will never know) that the report was disregarded. The post is generally directed and limited in its scope. This is often not true of what this little kangaroo court say to me, to Grandad, and to others who are further to the left in their views than they are.
