I like the sentiment but I'm not sure the first sentence is grammatically correct! Or is it just me? please log in to view this image
I'm presuming this isn't 'real' - probably a short from a film, although I don't recognise any of those in it - but boy does it get a good message across...
The main speech is from Jeff Daniels in the HBO series The Newsroom. He won an Emmy for this role. You will have seen him in lots of films. Still a good speech even if it is fictional tv drama.
Mutually exclusive? Besides I think it is a necessity of being a politician. I would like for them to be more accountable when they do, though.
Frightening thought - that Theresa May actually believes that her answer would be understood by children in Aleppo...
Not at all. Ever heard of interpreters and translation? For goodness sake even you must see the message she stated was good. Why do some left wingers just take up a position to oppose everything a right winger says - irrespective?
Not wishing to denigrate Aleppo children, but their ability to understand a translation of that political guff could well be doubtful - which was the point I was trying to make. The written word can confuse many - for example, you appear to mistakenly think that I am a left winger...
Then criticise Jon Snow for a silly question - not the person trying to answer. Every argument you make is anti right wing so I wonder why I place you on the left? Say a few nice things about Cameron, Osbourne, May and the Tories and I may have to revise my opinion of your stance.

At the risk of hijacking this thread... The question wasn't silly, and he had every right to it. The simple truth is that she couldn't/didn't want to give a truthful answer - to own up to the fact that she and her party are complicit in the violence & destruction that is raining down on the heads of those children, for no reasons other than greed and ideology. I take it then that, in your world, there is no divide separating the various political stances - merely a thin pencil line separating right from left? I give air to my opinions of those to the right because I find them to be particularly despicable, far and away more so than those to the left.
