Off Topic The Politics Thread

It's a fair question, and you might add that if he wasn't at the party, you would expect him to scotch that immediately. But he's surely within his legal and procedural rights to insist on waiting for the report he commissioned to be published before commenting. All anyone can expect for now is the report is delivered in a timely manner.

 

Its bizarre that any other minister who appears on tv can quickly say that they didnt attend this or any other party, yet the PM wont say. The fact that sue gray has to investigate these accusations has passed by now. The damage is done in the evidence of that email.

 

A very wise man once wrote 'theres no smoke without fire' , he also wrote 'its what they dont say that matters in politics'.

 

and further asked.. but did they **** their pants

 

Sadly Bob your veil slipped long ago. You spend more time on here bashing the Tories than anyone. Trying to mock me over something you don’t understand actually makes you look thicker than you come across. Sorry mate but true. Before you try to act clever you should understand a bit more.

 

Oh crap the political Chelsea boy is back gluing himself to the QPR politics thread. Quick I better get posting something generic on the football thread!

 

Oh dear, poor Ellers.

 

Nothing poor about me Stroller. If people are going to try and mock me I will give it back.
I know for some of you this party is worse than the holocaust but for others there are more important things in life to be getting on with.

 

A very wise man

But not the same wise man who didn’t understand the Brexit vote.

 

Make of that whatever suits your agenda as its what you dont say that matters in politics

 

Like a wise old owl

 

Do you actually understand what that means?

 

No, im as thick as pig ****

 

Yep it's true to say that myself and probably many others who wanted Brexit to happen held our noses a little bit when voting for Boris.
However, his ineptitude, lying and general crapness have moved on to a whole new level imo.
Plus, we probably all have to accept a person's faults when voting for them, as no one is perfect.

 

Excellent post Bob. Spot on.

 

So rather then mock me ask me and I will explain.
It’s standard practice for Politician's to know when to talk and when to say nothing. Thatcher was a master at it as was Blair. When they don’t answer you should ask why? A simple example “Boris were you at that party”? Boris: “ let’s just wait for the report”.
Another today was when asked about the PM’s resignation, Millibland never answered… for once he played that well.
A standard rule in politics is when someone doesn’t say something ask why, because sometimes what they don’t say is more important. I hope I have cleared that up. If not go on Google Scholar and read a few essays on it.

 

I may have understood that better if you had said nothing
