There is a nasty element in uk that encompasses left and right they fuel the atmosphere that allows others to make terrible threats especially against women.
Have you ever tried asking Joe to stop? If so what was his reaction. maybe if his friends condemned him a bit more his behaviour might improve.

Uj knows how I feel yes but I chose to ignore it on the open forum as it derails threads to keep on about it especially as he wont stop.

Calling names in the opposite direction don't touch him they just make the forum a more hostile environment IMO

Politics is something to be passionate about but not nasty.

Some of the nicest people on this forum are tories, some are left wing. Their politics don't make them nasty.
I think all the name calling could be an American thing. I was in the US a few years ago during the lead up to an election and the political broadcasts are shocking compared to the British ones. I'm talking about politicians themselves and not the general public who have always ridiculed them.

Re: Hard Left Death Threats Undermine Democracy

The despicable thuggish behaviour of hardleft Looney Labour gets more criticism. Now the Labour chief whip has complained to Corbyn and Momentum about abuse of MPs

https://blogs.spectator.co.uk/2016/0...ats-abuse-mps/

"At a Labour party meeting in Hove at the weekend, a steward at the college hosting the meeting was spat at by an activist, while Bristol West MP Thangam Debbonaire’s activists were left ‘frightened, intimidated and in tears’ after a confrontation with pro-Corbyn Momentum activists at a recent local party meeting. Angela Eagle, meanwhile, had a brick thrown through her office window and her staff threatened"

This is the true face of the supposedly caring Corbyn ideology. Death threats, vandalism of property, intimidation, physical abuse of MPs, aggressive social media campaigns and so on.

Do we really want these kind of duplicitous moronic thugs running the UK? I think not. Thatcher for all her misgivings, stood up to this "yobbish" culture and refused to allow it to sway and dominate UK politics.

So should we all.

Corbyn is unelectable

Looney Labour is unfit to govern until it ousts it's Marxist/Communist hard left contingent.

And there you go again, there is nothing anyone can debate about when you name call.

I agree this tit for tat situation is becoming somewhat tediously juvenile.

Morning to the Tory whingers, having a nice time in Tolpuddle with nice people, not a machine gun in sight.

Re: Hard Left Death Threats Undermine Democracy

Lots about it in the papers today. Strange how it's always the right wingers that are considered to be violent, yet this new wave of left wing bullies are allowed to get away with it.
