Big wow. You're one too. So am I. So is fcking everyone.

People are scared to go out, others have lost everything. Several are dead. But that's ok because you can use it to point out Boris Johnson is a dirty hypocrite.
I have not called for Boris's resignation (you made that up) he didn't suggest that
I have not suggested all the kids should be let off scot free (you made that up) he didn't suggest that
I haven't called Boris "dirty" (you made that up) he didn't suggest that

I have pointed out the hypocrisy of those now making statements about "entitlement".

your problem??
You are one strange, paranoid individual :doh:

nope - I am merely using his words about "entitlement" to do that. (and I have not called him "dirty")

As easy as it is to argue with Bish (and i do, lots ;) ) i think you're all jumping on him a tad unfairly here. All he did was point out, quite rightly, that Johnson is a hypocrite. Why try and put other words into his mouth? He simply posted the article for people to read.

Am I not right in saying three of the deaths were due to a hit and run incident?

Now I don't know if they were looters in the car (though it deosn't seem to fit the general MO), but my guess is that a large group of asians were gathered on a street corner with the purpose of protecting their neighbourhood, someone drives through and mistakes them for an angry mob, panics and plows through three of them trying to get away.

In case anyone mistakes this post for an excuse to burn and loot, please feel reassured that it isn't.

You're sidestepping again. Using the fact that I've added the word dirty in there as an excuse for not acknowledging my point.

:D I live in a small village about 45 minutes by train away from London, the most that goes on here is the odd bit of sheep stealing and people getting road rage from being stuck behind a tractor. The village newsletters most pressing issue is what colour crocuses to plant in the High Street next year and the vast majority of shops are clothing for posh ladies of a certain age. Reckon Lindfield is pretty safe from rioting and looters. :wink:

But touched by your concern!

:conf:

nope... I have used his words about entitlement to point out he is a hypocrite.

I supported boris for turning out with a broom (a few pages back) - I have also slagged him for his hypocrisy about "entitlement".

in the first case I was not using "the fact that people are scared to go out, that others have lost everything and several are dead" to praise Boris - just his actions.

and in the second case I am not using "the fact that people are scared to go out, that others have lost everything and several are dead" to slag Boris - just his words.

(i'd like to point out I didn't call Boris "clean" either! :wink: )

Would you like me to point out the recent threads you have gone off topic in? I was answering hoboh, give it a rest.

Are you suggesting we all go back to rioting there?

Careful, the police have social media covered.

I've asked you what your point was by posting the original post.
You said "Boris is a total hypocrite".
I'm saying that it's not ok to use what has happened as a means to point out he's a hypocrite. It really isn't.
