    "I wouldn’t argue with you Micky your’e that far indoctrinated in the left it would be a waste of time."

    This isn't addressing the point, it's a personal slight on the user making that point, and suggesting they're incapable of a balanced opinion.

    Are you now claiming you didn't do that?

    When will people ever accept a democratic decision. And believe it or not I voted to remain but got so sick of the media moaning I'm glad we left.

    thats not a personal slight it’s true MF has never deviated from left wing ideology all the time he has been posting on here, plus in my opinion as I said it’s too early to judge how bad/ good it’s going to be ,ergo it’s a waste of time!

    Wow, that's a bold claim! You've presumably been collating all my posts since the email list in the early 90s, yeah? You've obviously got too much time on your hands.

    Not been on here for a few days, reason, all this f*cking winning. It's a complete sh*show. That's my job, I'm trying to work in a vacuum of sh*t.No one knows what to do, and we've got Gove admitting to a sea Border and a PM still clinging to a blatant lie one doesn't exist.
    Wake up peeps you've been totally f*cked by these c*nts. It's only going to get worse.
    By the way anyone noticed supermarkets have voids where once produce would be displayed? This is a taster. We supply Covid these days f*ck all else.

    Exactly this. I couldn't be bothered arguing the point again. There was a vote, and now we go with it. I didn't vote Conservative either but don't keep bleating about it every week. You have to accept it crack on. Campaign for rejoining if you believe in the EU so much. I think there is more chance of the EU blowing up and more countries leaving, but just my opinion.

    Sure there will be pros and cons being in or out of the EU. Up to the individual what takes priority to them and nothing is going to persuade me we are better in at the moment, same i guess the OP will never accept being out.

    It's not a personal slight it's true? You claiming someone is incapable of judging something on merit rather than what you claim to be an ingrained ideology isn't a defamation on their character? Is that what you genuinely believe?

    Having said that, as flawed as that is, I do quite like it, and it's definitely an argument I'll use.
    "I wasn't being abusive when I called him a cn*t, he is actually a cn*t, everything I said was true."

    Thanks Jay, but I fear all this logic and rational thinking is just falling on deaf ears. Oh, hang on though, I can't think that because I'm indoctrinated by ideology or summat. Bugger...

    The Guardian is as bad as the Heil. Portray themselves as left but about as left as ******* Blair, which a lot of people on this board see as true socialism. Sad.

    If you'd offered an opinion I wouldn't have commented, I would have just read it and took on board. You didn't, you claimed someone was incapable of their own opinion because of their political beliefs. And you claiming different now isn't fooling anyone.

    no that was your opinion on what I posted, not my interpretation he has posted similar sarcasm on my opinion, what’s the difference?

    None really, but surely you understand that if you belittle someone by claiming they're incapable of rational thought because of their political beliefs then you're going to get a reaction, particularly after 11 on a Saturday.

    I have no problem with a difference of opinion, but dismissing someone like you did is a red rag to anyone. And I think you're aware of that.

    Not that I have a problem with you, I really don't, it's the comment I'm addressing not the person and I'm bound to shut up in a minute.

    It wasn't meant to belittle him,at the time I honestly just saw it as a concise way of saying I didn't want to enter into a protracted discussion on it because based on his previous posts on the subject I didn't see any way that I would be able to change his mind, and yes I take your point about the time because if red wine hadn't been consumed I probably wouldn't have taken that tack.
    Anyway, bedtime I think..

    Thank you for that very reasonable response.
    Have another red, have a nice sleep and have a nice day tomorrow.
    And you too Micky.

    Also, there's a significant difference between teething problems and a 70% drop in exports for a nation. That's a truly astonishing figure. Including accounting for covid, there's some massive economic contraction coming. Hedge fund Rishi can get sharpening his ******* pencil.

    To describe someone as indoctrinated implies their view is completely unwavering, in that they will only listen to one source to the point of being brainwashed. It's a bit of a slight, as it implies they can't think critically or for themselves.
