    As everyone can see you said the Conservatives have the best policies. Therefore they are better than the Sensible Party.As he does not want the Labour Party to have policies of 'left wing loonies' it is reasonable do deduce that he thinks the policies of the Blair years are good.
    So no lies there, perhaps merely a wrong, but reasonable assumption

    Not sure I really care what nationality they are, if they are criminals then I'd like them caught. Either here or in their home country with our help if necessary.

    While there is large wealth divides and easy pickings then criminals will come to take advantage.

    You don't seem to understand
    It is an insult. I have shown you the definition of an insult. Why are you saying it is not an insult?

    I don't like pick pockets full stop, regardless of their nationality, I do not favour English pick pockets over foreign ones :)

    Can it be classed as an insult if it is true? I honestly do not know.
    It's true nonetheless.

    I haven't set out any Sensible Party policies so how can you compare policies?
    It isn't reasonable to assume that if somebody doesn't like one set of policies that they only have one other set of policies available.

    They wouldn't come to the UK if we could refuse them entry.

    We can't keep English (or British even) criminals out of the country. If we weren't in the EU we could refuse entry to all foreign criminals.

    Yes, an insult is an insult whether it is true or false or thought to be true or false.

    I think you are clutching at straws Pete. Just accept that I am right

    I stand by my assertions. You are obviously wrong.

    If claiming that a group of people are disingenuous, dishonest and like to shift the blame isn't an insult, then why is calling somebody a racist?
    You don't seem to understand really straightforward examples of your cognitive dissonance.

    I stand by mine too. I also think most people will think I'm right, apart from the other two amigos obviously

    Insult - speak to or treat with disrespect or scornful abuse.
    the claims you made dont fall into that category

    Are there occasions when it is acceptable to mention someone's weight or other notable physical characteristic and apply negative connotations if their parents aren't married? For example calling someone a fat bastard?

    so you think that you can say one thing is better than another even if the other doesn't exist?
    that's a very interesting concept

    Did you mean to quote something else, as that doesn't appear to relate to what you've quoted?

    Pete, I've only called you fat, obese, bitter, a failure and a ****.

    Obviously you aren't an actual **** but you know what I mean.

    Cheers.

    Do you mean to say if we could refuse them entry and they were known criminals or do you believe that the ability to refuse would deter potential criminals?
