@FredaJones666 @PoliticsForAlI@guardian Also, this system allows more conciliatory and consensual politics, and after the last 5 years, I think this is the last thing we should get rid of.
@FredaJones666 @PoliticsForAlI@guardian Like many others, for me there are multiple candidates I support in elections, I only go for the one closest to me because I only have 1 vote. I'd prefer to have someone who I agree with less in power than someone that's diametrically opposed so my consent transfers over.
@JamesMcCusker17@MrMnd73 @BootheJonathon @DebraBe16141698 I'm glad that we can appreciate the beauty of modern Britain without having to denigrate many of our fellow citizens like many on this thread are doing. Long may we be welcoming, thoughtful and empathetic.
@Rolo_Tamasi@leeharris Labour has elements of elite mentality in it - agreed. But the Conservatives being for the working class, that's a joke.
When they cut public services that supported working class communities, were they looking out for the proles then?
@JamesMcCusker17@MrMnd73 @BootheJonathon @DebraBe16141698 Doesn't matter whether they were long gone or not, that's where the root of the language we speak comes from and if we're talking cultural erosion, we're part of it.
Culture is enhanced by sharing - I love Tikka masala and cheese boards too much for it not to be!
@FredaJones666 @PoliticsForAlI@guardian The alternative is to educate people, not to do away with a system that ensures that the winner has at least more than 50% of consensual democratic support inn favour of one that allows minority rule.
@Braddisms@BBCWorld Not that I need to say it - I don't believe in open borders either, but that we should in a measured and fair way allow people into the country, help them integrate and appreciate our way of life and culture and allow them to live a much better life.
@Braddisms@BBCWorld My pleasure, truly and honestly.
The only reason that you can pass it off as a 'problem' is the sheer luck of the universe that you weren't born in war-torn countries. I count myself lucky, but still, recognise that we all have a responsibility to help others.
@ShaunBaileyUK You got an extra 5%... hardly shattered expectations.
Good luck in the abyss of shattered political dreams with the bigotry you've espoused in the past.
@rafsanchez Wholly irreligious and morally reprehensible man.
This is not what God teaches in Judaism or any Abrahamic religion - do good by your neighbour and do not bring any harm.
@JamesMcCusker17@MrMnd73 @BootheJonathon @DebraBe16141698 Well then - cultures evolve over time, and every generation believes the upcoming one is ruining it. I'm sure our Saxon forefathers would denounce you for ruining culture.
@DegueldreRoger@BBCWorld@BBCNews Ongoing wars and climate devastation have led to insecure living conditions.
Not sure how you can call them criminals without actually finding them causing offences though.
