Excellent post Steels. I was ignorant of the context as were many on here hence myself not commenting. Others chose to
To be perfectly frank and honest, I only knew of 'captain Tom' as an old guy in the news walking up and down his garden for charity. Excellent stuff. I know of plenty who go above and beyond that every ****ing day of the week ffs! He had his life, I hope he enjoyed it and well done mate but **** me people are getting a tad carried away over an old man who walked in his garden.
Dunno if you read much at all Kiwi, but this book talks about how Labour has to win back the working class and go back to its true values. Sums up my views and opinions completely.
Then for our resident far right social media activist to say that the 'left' are politically point scoring over his death is beyond ridiculous! Anyone taking the piss out of any death is quite perverse. They are just idiots regardless of political persuasion.
Sometimes I wish Ellers didnt have me on ignore, so I could call him a massive TWAT for him to then put me on ignore.
I really can’t mate.....but it wouldn’t be that hard to work out who I was talking about. My point being the public want to see the bad guy suffer and the good guy win......and we lap it up like the lemmings we are.
Sorry mate but I was upset when I heard the news of Captain Tom and was one of the first to pay my respects on the RIP thread. I then went on Twitter and was treated by that Tweet which I posted. I was complaining that Tom hadn’t even been dead long and people were already on his case. I then get accused of making a political point ffs? Same one as usual. And to set the record straight... I respect all the QPR posters on here. even the ones I disagree most with. If this thread was closed I would still be on the others. Sadly not all of us are like that? Political stuff is their goal. anyway apologies for some of my post digs but it irks me when I get accused of something that I wasn’t even doing.
I’d rather Labour was able to win without the fake US-lite flag shagging the Tories insist upon but they’ve been allowed to be painted as somehow anti-‘honest, hardworking taxpayers’ for far too long by the party of austerity and cronyism. But it’s not really aimed at me. There are plenty of floating voters and Brexit mugs up for grabs at the next election and Labour needs a good chunk of them. Starmer should start wearing a Union Jack suit.
Why in anyway is that disrespectful? I have respected that the old war veteran walked up and down his garden for charity. Tell me, what have I missed? I'm not going to pretend his passing has upset me, I didnt even know him, nor would I if he hadn't done the charity walk, which I said was excellent. His passing has nothing to do with politics yet here it is on a political thread, Maybe in your eyes I am a disrespectful **** and maybe in my eyes you're just a ****.
