The description of the Left as "Lefties" as though you're talking about a bunch of scruffy urchins about to strike over the tea break being cut to 10 minutes

Why would you think that I think that?

Look, I question Corbyn's suitability to oppose this two faced Government. His policies will not put pressure on Cameron to do the right thing.

The centre ground is what it's all about.

However, carry on with too much immigration and the Right will rise.

Carry on with the destruction of the NHS and too much austerity measures and the Left will rise.

Too many threads on here end in becoming political. It's boring.

Oh well, that didn't last long.
The centre ground is not what it's all about, and I would say such folk are sizeable, but a minority nevertheless.
Why should a couple of million swing voters continually hold sway ? Why not the more "extreme" views have a bit more say, left or right ?  It's just another version of the establishment rotten borough routine keeping the rough status quo.

Maybe middle of the road should stop hogging and take a back seat for a change. Their stability is another person's food bank. An imitation of ancient Greek democracy that relied on slavery to pay the upkeep of it's middle of the road.

SJH, I don't agree with your politics (my son does ) but I do agree with your analysis.

If we meet first beer is on me.

You have to stand for something.

I'm with the mighty squeaker on this one.
