...calm down, it's Labor not Labour!

Morrison was a barefaced liar who'd say anything; credit to the Aussies for deciding they'd had enough.

[Peter Pedant]

as ever - the cons sort of voted themselves out
by stupid behaviour
and the Labor just kept quiet

just like Mac 1964 - ( wilson)
Major 1997 ( Bliar)
and presumably Bonka Boris and Keir 2024

the usual - - you have done this to yourselves

[Peter Pedant]

Boris is a bar-faced liar - - - that is my belief so it must obviously be untrue.....

just like Mac 1964 - ( wilson)

I thought it was Alec Douglas-Home

[ToraToraTora]

yes Labour have been in power 24 years out of 122, magnificent!

[perseverer]

TTT, another example of no matter how often you say it, it doesn't make it true.

[ToraToraTora]

it is true I wrote a program and extracted the actual number of days, Labour have been in power for 23.9 years, out of 122, I rounded it up to 24. Even if you add the 13 Tory lite years it's still pitiful. I can show you the data and the code if you like.

[perseverer]

As I said the last time this came up, Blair was elected under the Labour banner. And if you need to write code to work out how long someone was in power, you really need to get out more, ( and perhaps spend less time pushing your agenda on AB.)

[ToraToraTora]

Took a few minutes, just like to be accurate. Blair was a Thatcherite me old china, about as far from Labour as you can get. Tell you what I'll add the 13 Tory lite years back in, that's 37 out of 122, still pretty poor wouldn't you say?

[ToraToraTora]

"( and perhaps spend less time pushing your agenda on AB.) " - I'm not pushing an agenda I'm fighting left wing 5C propaganda.

[perseverer]

There is a lot more right wing propaganda on AB than left. As others have pointed out to you, other people are entitled have an opinion different to yours without needing to be labelled with one of your acronyms/abbreviations.

My old china - is that some quaint term of endearment?

[ToraToraTora]

"other people are entitled have an opinion different to yours without needing to be labelled with one of your acronyms/abbreviations. " - yes and I welcome a well argued point sadly that is rare normally it's semi literate posturing. I don't label anyone I just assign the labels they create themselves.

[THECORBYLOON]

"I don't label anyone I just assign the labels they create themselves."

Can you point to an instance of someone assigning the label of "Fifth Columnist" for example, that was created by that person?

For the avoidance of any doubt, by "created by that person", I mean that person has described himself or herself as being a "Fifth Columnist" as opposed to its being your personal description of that person.
