    I don't take sides as my posting history will show and have just recently sided with you. However, your comments above is generally how you behave. Your deflections are legendary, but it's always someone else taking every conversation "off piste"

    That doesn't mean that you don't.

    Funny how often these silly personal discussions crop up after a few bits of news are posted. Give it a page or two and you'll be saying I never post anything with a point.

    Here ya go, to get you off this tedious tack and on topic. I posted those articles as a way of showing that 'remain' wasn't so much a fixed option, as the EU has to change. Had we remained, it would have been far less likely to have changed in a good direction, as it would head to a more centralised power base.

    As this little exchange amongst the others clearly shows.

    Your answers don't seem confusing, they are confusing most of the time. I guess in your head, you've answered them, but I can assure you, very rarely do you come out of any debate with any credibility.

    But rather than say that you copy and paste half a dozen articles largely saying the same thing and don't give an opinion or a link to where they're from. All in the spirit of provoking healthy debate and education I'm sure. You'd maybe have a point if there was some balance to what you post.

    You'd be hard pushed to find a 'debate' on here. It's just screeching, abuse and personalisation like this rather tedious exchange. Which incidentally is me answering questions. :emoticon-0105-wink:

    They seem afraid to actually discuss topics.

    You do realise that you can have a debate which consists of a yes / no type conversation and can be concluded reasonably quickly and without it dragging on for post after post.

    So discuss the content instead of boring people ****less with your inaccurate personality critique.

    I've added a starter for you a reply or two back as you seemed unable to form your own opinion on the actual articles.

    Part of the reason I didn't post the link, is that light weights just whine about the messenger.

    Part of the reason I didn't post an opinion, is that lightweights rarely seem to have one, they just seem to want to dance around commenting on the source or some other personal issues.

    It's partly why I point out that so many replies are simply deflections.

    Crack on, post an opinion and comment on the words in the article.

    Yes.

    Care to post your opinions on the issues raised from the articles, instead of tediously dragging this out?

    Shoppers can look forward to "best ever" Black Friday deals this year thanks to Brexit, figures suggest, with discounts on goods expected to top 60 per cent on average.

    Despite the huge discounts on offer Brits are expected to spend around £2.3 million a minute on Christmas presents in the bargain hunting event this Friday – around a fifth more than last year.

    Following the Brexit vote shoppers have become acclimatised to bargain prices, as shops instantly dropped prices on thousands of lines over fears shoppers would tighten their purse strings.

    As thousands of home, garden and electronics items are already more heavily discounted than usual it means shops battling for shoppers' attention around Black Friday will have to slash prices even lower than last year, according to discount website lovethesales.com.

    Price analysis of millions of items showed 18 per cent of items were on sale in shops the week before the vote, rising by nearly 50 per cent to 26 per cent the following week, where they have remained since.

    And as well as more items going on sale, the average discount also grew – by around eight per cent – up from 35 per cent to 39 per cent in the week after the Brexit vote.

    Mark Solomon, founder of LovetheSales.com said: “Post Brexit uncertainty has resulted in increased competition between retailers, reflected by more aggressive discounting of inventory. If this trend continues, this Black Friday weekend will be the biggest ever.”


    A spokesman for the website added that as Black Friday shoppers usually expect discounts of at least 20 per cent from their previous price, retailers would be forced to further discount items – which already have 40 per cent off – to 60 per cent of the original price.

    I guess that was clearly deliberate from Hull. How can he turn it into "his type of debate" (which is generally page after page of lots of words, which don't actually say anything) if he posts the links.
    Extremely tedious and to be quite honest, shows a limited intelligence.
    I'm out of here....goodnight.

    No, because I don't really care and you don't really want to debate it. I was just hoping to stop you from cluttering up the thread again.

    It says a lot that you post that after I explained why I posted those as I did.

    It says more that you're leaving having not offered a solitary opinion on the posts, choosing to clutter the place with tedious personal comments.

    It takes less than 5 seconds to find the source to any of the articles he's posted...

    So you clutter the thread up with tedious personal abuse, and ZERO opinion on the articles, and then try to claim it's me cluttering the thread. :emoticon-0102-bigsm:emoticon-0102-bigsm:emoticon-0102-bigsm

    What a nobhead.

    The source does matter. If you copy and paste something from 'nazi.com' then it suggests there may be some bias or lies. If you post from a range of sources it suggests you might be well read on the subject rather than a right-wing spambot. I do quite like that you say that it's me who "bores people ****less". It adds to the delusion you show when anyone who disagrees with you is deflecting or attacking the messenger.

    I did actually ask you some time ago this evening, based on one of your sourceless posts, if strong leaders had to be very right-wing as your article suggests. However, you didn't reply.

    It makes no difference. If they can't dismiss it for the paper it's from, they clutter the place up with personal comments and scuttle off blaming me. :emoticon-0102-bigsm

    It takes less than two seconds to just post the link or name the source. Perhaps the intention is to pass it off as his own work.

    So dispute the content you donut. You've added **** all to this thread. <doh>

    Like so many others, you're incapable of forming your own opinion, so try to mask it by personalising the discussion.

    I even tried spoon feeding you with an opinion to have a discussion on.

    :emoticon-0113-sleep and round and round you go, but clearly that'll be my fault, despite me repeatedly asking for your views on the articles.
