BCM Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 my thread was really just about his facepalm gesture... but re: gordon brown's pr mess - i think it's a combination of media hate, public anger and him not really being a people person. all adds up to an election campaign pr nightmare.

Squee Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 After he had been talking to a lady on the street about eastern europeans coming to England he jumped into his car and drove off but he had obviously forgotten that his microphone was still on so they started babbling on about what a disaster it had been and then he called the lady a bigot.

Guest margaret thatcher Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 i like my prime ministers looking like gristled worldly wise old men who drink lashings of port and sherry, rather than fresh faced naive schoolboys like cameron and clegg. you think cameron would have been a strong leader in ww2, instead of churchill?

Guest margaret thatcher Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 no one's denying that she's a bigot. it's one of the mysteries of human behaviour that people in britain become bigoted when they get old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest hahathhat Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 so how is brown anyways? can he think for himself? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest margaret thatcher Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 brown's fine. he's just not an attractive people person, and since 51% of the electorate is female, he's not going to win. honestly, the only comments i've had from girls regarding this election is "oh that clegg's good looking" or "cameron's wearing a nice tie". i suppose policies are irrelivent when you've got a nice face.

Guest chunky Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 britain's had 13 years of open door policy towards immigration many cities and towns have completely changed churches are closing down mosques are going up in their place this immigration policy is the cause of the labour party, which is the traditional party of the working class labour politicians are following marx/gramsci/trotsky or whatever BUT labour voters dont give a fuck about ideology, they want to live in their own country with its own language, religion, and culture so basically brown approached an old labour voter who complained to him about this change in immigration over the last 13 years and he agreed with her then he got into his car, with his microphone on, and called her a bigot, revealing his true belief that actually hes not on the side of the working class the problem is, the labour party doesnt represent the beliefs of the white working class any more. it believes in its own agenda of open borders where anyone can come to live in britain. and now the working class feels abandoned, it is deserting the labour party in favour of small parties like the BNP (which is a creepy white nationalist party with a leader who reminds of kim jong il or joseph stalin or some other creep demagogue dictator) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Coalbucket PI Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 I'm now registered in the number 1 target constinuency for lib dems to take away from conservatives, so my vote might actually count for once. the difference was only about 300 in the last election Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest chunky Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 the point isnt whether immigration is right or wrong it's that the core labour voters don't like it and the labour leaders do like it there's a split in opinion that is destroying the labour party and thats what this PR mess is about personally i dont vote and i wouldnt advocate shutting the door on immigration but labour have gone too far, there's a lot more to the story but i suppose its outside the scope of the thread try this story if youre interested (lol :-) in british immigration policy http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/8326501.stm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chenGOD Posted May 1, 2010 Share Posted May 1, 2010 So chunky basically what you're saying is the labour voters are a bunch of racists? That article you posted a link to is woefully short on anything that could be considered even close to a useful piece of information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest chunky Posted May 1, 2010 Share Posted May 1, 2010 no. many labour voters didn't ask for mass immigration, they didn't vote for mass immigration, but they got it anyway, and now they're pissed off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest chunky Posted May 1, 2010 Share Posted May 1, 2010 "Mr Neather said: "Earlier [unpublished] drafts I saw also included a driving political purpose: that mass immigration was the way that the government was going to make the UK truly multicultural. "I remember coming away from some discussions with the clear sense that the policy was intended - even if this wasn't its main purpose - to rub the right's nose in diversity and render their arguments out of date." The "deliberate policy" had lasted from late 2000 until "at least February last year", when the new points-based immigration system was introduced," Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chenGOD Posted May 1, 2010 Share Posted May 1, 2010 So by joining the very open minded BNP they're not saying that they're racists they're saying they just want peace and harmony for all? Those aren't details, those are bits of innuendo and hearsay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
