What the **** planet are you on? You have to be the strangest person I've ever come across, whether in real life or on here. Go back and please read the posts. I've not disagreed with your point but highlighted what could influence your point, only to be dismissed as them having nothing to do with it. Please just re-read it.
No, I don't need to. I know exactly what I said and it's correct.

Honestly Ellers, I really try my hardest to be civil to you but you're an arrogant little ****. The country is truly ****ed with people like you spouting your ****e. I couldnt care less if you grass me up and I receive a ban, probably a blessing to be honest but you are an annoying little ****.
Once again you cannot debate with all the childish rubbish. As I said to you before, you are a good football poster but just argumentative on this thread. You also let yourself down with your comments and once again the debate was going okay until the usual suspects turn up. If you disagree with my comments, just say I disagree and move on. But as always you have to come out with nasty afters. Put me on ignore so I don't have to reply to your rubbish.
Once again it's the same two that start all the crap.

Do you think brexit or covid could effect the economy?

Yes Bob you may well be right,Brexit & Corona may well impact on the economy in 4 years time, then again it might not, time will tell, Boris will be gone by then and hopefully a grown up will take charge of the situation, Mr Starmer will have to perform then as he wont have the buffoon to deal with.

I honestly think both will have an effect, one definitely a negative effect as we are already witnessing. We have no timescale for how long Covid will effect us and how long it would take the economy to recover. Mix in the possible negative effects of brexit (I said possible as we dont know) and the economy is goosed. That's how it effects an election.

The handy thing for the government is that the negative economic impact of Brexit will be masked by the negative economic impact of Covid.

It wasn't me, Guv.

What a bumbling idiot PM we have.
"Its 6 in and 6 out, shake them all about, you put your left foot in then its 6 in hospitality, 6 not in your garden, put your right foot in then its 6 in pubs but not 6 in gardens, unless it's a pub garden and 6 can then erm do something that 6 people cant." Hope that clears it all up

Sorry bob I had a long chat with my mate who has been down of late... I hope I cheered him up? <yikes>
right I said: "Bob it will have nothing to do with Brexit or Covid... I said this a few weeks back. The next election will be won/lost on the economy. As Goldie says, they have plenty of time to turn things around."
This post makes perfect sense. In 4 years Brexit and Covid should be done and dusted (we all hope) and the election will be fought on the economy. I did not say that Covid/Brexit doesn't have an effect on the economy... it is at the moment but in 4 years people won't be thinking about that as I believe both will be history.
Has that cleared it up? It's what I said in the original post.

Fair enough, I never disagreed with your opinion. I said brexit and covid will have an effect on the economy which could/will influence your scenario. It's happening right now, and could take years to recover. Maybe you just need to word things differently rather than telling people they dont understand.

It doesn't help when Mr Starmer and Labour voted against this bill tonight. They are getting slatted for sticking up for the EU instead of their own country according to the Tories. They are saying "same old remain Labour."

I've just seen that and the counter tweets saying Labour just voted against breaking international law. Depends which way you look at things

Maybe I should have made myself a bit clearer. I am just hoping both Covid/Brexit will be long gone and I really believe after all the cr2p we may get back on our feet. We need to as we can't go on like this. :emoticon-0148-yes:
