Is It A Left Wing Trait To Hate Your Own Nation?

[ToraToraTora]

....or is it only he British left?

[fiction-factory]

No. I see IS for example as being a right wing movement

[ToraToraTora]

Can someone translate please.

[fiction-factory]

I'll try. I think you are asking whether left wingers in general tend to hate their own nation or is it just the British left who hate their own nation.

[fiction-factory]

I'm saying hating your own nation can be a right wing trait as well.

[ToraToraTora]

so where do IS come into this? Islam is primarily stateless and they hate everyone who doesn't share their views.

[TheChair]

Not sure. It's David Cameron who wants to sell British nuclear power infrastructure to the Chinese, and Jeremy Hunt who said he wants British children and workers to be like the Chinese. Are they left wing?

[ToraToraTora]

I'm thinking more of the IRA/Bin Laden supporting leader of the opposition me old china.

[TheChair]

Yeah, I thought you were, me old sell-out-to-China

There you go again TTT ! Everybody that isn't a died-in-the-wool Tory must therefore be "anti-British"

We have been mourning the passing of Denis Healey this week.....a long-standing member of the Labour Party...he was also the beach master at Anzio....but perhaps, according to you, he was "anti-British" as well !

Is it a right wing trait to worship your betters ? eg Public School boys,Royalty and the Rich ?

the BBC's a great institution, the sort of thing most countries wish they had. The Tories seem to be doing their best to crush it. Ditto the NHS, though that's an all-party thing.
