ICTChris Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 My work is full of c***s like that. Would rather go to a beefeater and eat microwave ready meals than dine in a nice restaurant. There's a certain amount of inverted snobbery about food. It's like they think that only wimps eat well made and well prepared food.The thing that gets me about F&Bs is how fucking expensive it is, it costs a fortune for what it is. I’ve had to go to various things with family who like it and also family who have kids and it costs a bomb. It’s also horrifically shite.This probably sounds snobby but a lot of people in this country have horrendous taste in food and are happy to eat utter dung. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find that she doesn’t really come out with anything original and just spouts stuff that we already knew about inequality etc. Don’t think she is anything special. I'm not sure you understand what a MP's job is. She's not a singer/songwriter coming up with her next album, she's there to point out the things that are wrong with her constituency. Of course she's going to highlight inequalities, if you're already aware of them then good for you, not everyone else in the UK is. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An MP's job is to toe the party line in the hope of personal advancement. Its a career. Certainly in Scotland and the UK. That's all MP's/MSP's. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most peoples job descriptions don't tally up with what they do, why should politicians be any different. Especially when you're discussing the more emotive job descriptions. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cardinal Richelieu Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 I think Gareth Southgate is a touch of class. I don't want England to win the World Cup, but if they do, then I'll console myself that Gareth Southgate was in charge. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that really what you're arguing here? Eh ? What ? You seem to think that politicians are immune from human drives like ambition. What 'we' want our politicians to do and what the politicians want are two different things. You'll often find that a politician gets in with less than a 50% of the vote yet are supposed to represent their constituents. They generally represent their party though.

You're rambling on about party politics and quite missing the original point. No, I accused you of being naive and I suspect that's the cause of this ongoing 'whatever it is'. Your painfully simple point was easy to understand. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
