I think the real issue is ...to what level and that is what differentiates them. The Tories have predominantly exhibited outright sleaze and self-agrandisement. The rest, with some exceptions, haven't been as bad and that should alwys be taken into account instead of the bollix statement that " they are all the same". Some similarities, but not the same. |

All that stuff is to drag the eyes away from the reality. As Winston will point out the immigrants come to work and they have to wait some time before they get a sniff of a handout whilst the Townhill massive keep taking the money and whine on.
The UK could have followed the rest of Europe and made it even harder for the immigrants to claim but instead they chose not to and yet still blamed Europe and the immigrants. |

"referendum on the corrupt political establishment. "
"join the people’s revolt"
"Why else would snobby voices like the Financial Times and the Economist endorse Starmer’s Labour?"
"even more immigration and betray Brexit by taking the knee to the EU"
"Do you want a leader who is unashamedly patriotic, proud of Britain’s past and optimistic about our future? "
Steve Bannon's briefings to European (hard)conservatives obviously worked... but remember he's just gone to jail. |

This.
I think I'll be in work on the Friday utterly knackered but relieved that they've gone. |

"Indeed so many people aren't interested any more that they don't even bother to vote. Most 16 year olds don't see futher into their future than the next fun thing, seeing their girlfriend, the next football match etc. "
...so give the vote to the youngsters, try to engage them and see if we get an increase in voting and political engagement. they can't be any worse than the general poulation, going by the statistics. |

Utter arrant nonsense. EU and NATO are two different organisations. Supporting an autocratic kleptocrat is not a good look ...well except for the modern day right wingers desperate power at any cost.
I thought you were better than that but you proved me to be misguided. |

It's the 21st century. A secret boys club is just as much an aethema to the modern era as ancient religions. |

So I guessed correctly that you were referencing the frontal lobe , cool. You could have told us from the start as you were already aware of the article because years ago the ago was thought to be lower.
I didn't say 30, I said closer to 30 and that came from a com.ent my wife made to me months ago when she told me what she had read in an article.
Also I didn't state that you opposed voting for the age group due to fear. You also added a lot of strawman topics...drinking, the military etcetera. I didn't equate youth voting with adulthood, I just pointed out how easily we can be duped or persuaded otherwise which is applicable to all and that there is no biological line in the sand date which endows us with the ability to select politicians or governments so maybe letting the next generation start dipping their toes in setting out their future rather than relying on old bustards carrying on making things worse for the future. |

I suspect that you are talking about the frontal lobe...they have revised the age estimate to closer to 30.
Do you honestly believe that they are much different to .any in their twenties when it comes to knowledge and experience? What knowledge, what experience?
It's been shown that people of all ages and intellectual capacities get taken in by smooth operators...which is what modus operandi many modern "politicians" use. So the truth is many of those that oppose it do so out of fear. |

I suspect that it's an attempt to get young people interested in politics as a way of stemming the general voter apathy. |
