Off Topic The Politics Thread

If it makes you happy, do it.

****ing flag shagger

I'm not fond of patriotism of any kind, really. It too often boils over into nationalism.

Isn't supporting a national sports team a type of patriotism?

You're wasting your time with the liberal elites mate.

Isn't supporting a national sports team a type of patriotism?

Yes, it is. That can get quite nasty.

 

[Star of David Bardsley]

No surrender

 

[Goldhawk-Road]

Yes, it is. That can get quite nasty.

So would you abandon all international sporting events, World Cup, Olympics etc?

 

[Stroller]

Afternoon, Col.

Nice of you to describe me as elite, but I really don't think I qualify.

 

[Staines R's]

You must log in or register to see media

The words to this song pretty much sum it up for me

 

[Stroller]

Of course not.

 

[Goldhawk-Road]

Of course not.

Then, contrary to what you just said, you agree with patriotism of some kinds

I didn't say I disagreed with it, I said I'm not fond of it. I support England sporting teams, but I'm also ashamed of how some 'patriotic' England supporters behave.

Bad behaviour's another thing altogether. But no one (apart from perhaps, Watford) can deny the pleasure World Cup football brings or deny the Argies the thrill of driving around Buenos Aires waving their national flags when they won. It's harmless exhuberance.

So much for today's emergency alert, never got it and it seems quite a few others didn't either...

They obviously have a list of people they don’t care about in an emergency….sorry lads

No reply...

It seems for the Hard Left, flag waving is fine for everyone but the English...

Why would I deny the pleasure of a World Cup? Weird old fascist.

You and Col do like to ascribe views to people that don't actually hold them.
