Boris and the burka

Boris acts like a buffoon, but he is not. It is all calculated and he is currently lining himself up for a leadership bid.

In my view, he is a dangerous man.
I’ll tell you who’s dangerous, the party that has a leader who’s praised Venezuela as a shining example of the socialist utopia. The party that has a deputy who thinks Moa did more good than harm. The party that has a self-avowed Marxist as Shadow Chancellor of the Exchequer.

That’s what people should be worried about, not the mythical far-right, which in most cases is nothing more than a slur aimed at anyone East of Gandhi.
 
Dangerous to whom?

Anyone born outside the realm of what is kosher in the insane Tory mind, i can only assume that includes non-straight people, non-white people and non-christians. Who ultimately need to defend themselves from your idea that this man is "not dangerous" to their survival.

Yes "mythical"... you really are rather obvious aren't you. The walls are coming down on your ideology whether you agree or not. You better be worried, because you're wrong and you know it.
 
Boris is incapable of keeping his mouth shut he's physically incapable of engaging his brain before opening his mouth. Having said that theres nothing in there I disagree with, needless to say he'll be forced to eat his words as well as humble pie as thats the way the world is nowadays. Whether it was a genuine gaffe or a calculated move is hard to say. Seeing as its Boris though its probably the former.

Having read Boris' article, there's not a lot in it that I disagree with (and I'm no fan of Boris).

His letterbox and bank robber comments are a bit un-PC, but I wouldn't class them as racist or Islamophobic. He's certainly said worse things in the past, and we can't really be surprised that he would say something controversial for effect — he's built a career out of it.

If its not PC it is racist or islamophobic, havn't you heard?

When someone claims the majority of the voting population of the United Kingdom are insane it's hard to take a balanced view of their opinion of the danger or otherwise of Boris Johnson, not that I personally have aired an opinion here of how perilous he might or might not be.

I consider it insane to continue to run aground their own country, yes, this country's voters are idiots explicitly.

I might add that Ancient Greece found out rather quickly how dumb democracy was and shortly became a basket case for the next couple thousand years.
 
I wore Bermuda shorts in the 80s. Now I think about it, maybe I was brain washed by timmy mallet?

Do I have a legal case? I must do, this is 2018

PPI claims......timmy claim? yeah, I'm making a timmy claim. £££
 
Without reading every comment, they were likely up in arms about the huge double-standard about there being far more tolerance when it comes to racial slights on white people, while white people are under constant scrutiny for anything that's 6 degrees of separation from something racist. The Boris comments are a prime example.

I get that I was playing devils advocate. But it's not a term that fits an entire race. It's more akin to "fatty". Derogatory for sure but it's absolutely nothing to do with race. I'm dubious about it describing an illness unless one of the listed symptoms included a change in mental state that made them all xenophobic lager swillers.

I believe the comparison is relevant to the thread despite the unexplained deletion as it highlights a degree of double standards. Ie it's just clothing vs it's just sun damaged capillaries all wrapped up in a farce of "it's ok to offend people so long as it's not me"
 
You don't choose to be offended...


You do. Taking offence in what someone has says in entirely your decision. What offers one may not offend another and that's because they're taking the comment in a different way.

It's just like any kind of criticism; some take it to heart and it cripples them, others take it as an opportunity to learn/understand others.

Are you implying you would like the UK to become a none democratic country, politically speaking, here?
 
Not surprised. StriderX wants to kill off older generations, and now wants a dictatorship... smh

I am hoping I have misinterpreted his post, but something tells me he does indeed hope for a collapse of democracy in the UK :(

Now THAT sounds like someone who might be described as "dangerous".

Singapore works wonderfully and clearly the UK is a failing state because of it's democracy and not it's lack of.
 
Singapore was initially set up and developed by the British Raj, and now has a Westminster style of Parliamentary governance.

(1) If an Act recites that action has been taken or threatened by any substantial body of persons, whether inside or outside Singapore —

(a) to cause, or to cause a substantial number of citizens to fear, organised violence against persons or property;
(b) to excite disaffection against the President or the Government;
(c) to promote feelings of ill-will and hostility between different races or other classes of the population likely to cause violence;

(d) to procure the alteration, otherwise than by lawful means, of anything by law established; or
(e) which is prejudicial to the security of Singapore,
any provision of that law designed to stop or prevent that action or any amendment to that law or any provision in any law enacted under clause (3) is valid notwithstanding that it is inconsistent with Article 9, 11, 12, 13 or 14, or would, apart from this Article, be outside the legislative power of Parliament.

(2) A law containing such a recital as is mentioned in clause (1) shall, if not sooner repealed, cease to have effect if a resolution is passed by Parliament annulling such law, but without prejudice to anything previously done by virtue thereof or to the power of Parliament to make a new law under this Article.

(3) If, in respect of any proceedings whether instituted before or after 27th January 1989, any question arises in any court as to the validity of any decision made or act done in pursuance of any power conferred upon the President or the Minister by any law referred to in this Article, such question shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of any law as may be enacted by Parliament for this purpose; and nothing in Article 93 shall invalidate any law enacted pursuant to this clause.

We need a little of this here. Boris would have been arrested if we were in Singapore.

Arrested, lmao. Don’t you think our police have got enough problems without having to arrest people for writing some naughty words? It doesn’t even come close to a criminal offence? Cressida Dick has confirmed this.

I'm not saying it did, i'm saying in another realm it would be (in this case a "democracy" apparently). He should still be punished for being far too crude under ministerial code.
 
You can be arrested in Singapore for dropping chewing gum or not flushing a public toilet, the Acts you cited show the lengths such countries are having to go to in order to force equable multiculturalism upon their citizens.

Seems to work, Singapore is a huge economy for such a tiny state, yet we've dropped down to 6th because of Xenophobes.

Some of highest government satisfaction of any country, as well as social policies that actually make sense, apparently 80% of their population live in government built buildings, strange that.

What should happen in your eutopia to the Labour MP Naz Shah for her liking and re Tweeting of this gem? :

‘Those abused girls in Rotherham and elsewhere just need to shut their mouths. For the good of diversity.’

Besides not using twitter, or indeed giving a **** about the Labour party. She should be forced onto benefits as punishment.

Though that wouldn't be equatable for many an MP has money outwith the job, so sanction her accounts.
