    Default Ah, the "Progressive Left"

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotlan...itics-11658228

    Harriet Harmen, former "Equalities Minister" calls the Chief Secretary to the Treasury a "Ginger Rodent".

    Where to start?

    Where to start? I say the ginger rodent can start by repaying the British taxpayer the profit our slick ginger made from evading taxes over his taxpayer-funded London house.

    Yes, the question we all need to ask ourselves, is this:

    Do we really want gingers in our schools, in our communities, infecting our pure, non-ginger kids? If we don't take a stand NOW, we will wake up one day 20 years from now with a disgusting ginger kid as our grandchild....

    DO WE REALLY WANT THAT TO HAPPEN??!?

    TAKE ACTION NOW - SAY NO TO GINGERS!!!!

    I am a half-cast, accepted neither in the ginger community nor mainstream society. Having been everywhere and accepted nowhere, my life is a tragic tale of loneliness and rejection.

    If this is a serious statement then it is such idiotic attitudes that will destroy the Union and win the day for the "progressive leftists".
    At the end of the day politics is just trash compared to the Gospel.

    So, given that we have established that the Deputy Leader of the Labour Party and Former "Equalities Minister" is a bit of a bigot and certainly a hypocrite (check some of the other things she said in that speech) HoreTore has resorted to racist trolling.

    Kudos for proving be right, Leftie.

    As our former Great Leader would have said, "That bigoted woman!".

    Sums up the 'progressives' in a nutshell.
    There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.

    “Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it whether it exists or not, diagnosing it incorrectly, and applying the wrong remedy.”

    To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticise.

    Didn't Red Ed, the new Labour leader call for a "grown up political debate" in response to his nickname? And yet Labour et al still throw around the term "ConDem nation" like there's no tomorrow. What can you expect from the Labour hypocrisy? It's pretty much all they have left as a political party though, knuckle dragging and mud slinging.

    Then again, that old Labour hero Nye Bevan once refer to the Tories as " lower than vermin" so the old "progressive" party has a fine tradition of insults and slurs.

    This topic is lost on me.

    Especially the part where people actually cared about Harriet Harman other than to mock her stupidity in comments and actions.

    Ginger rodent rofl sorry I have a weak spot for insults. But yeah it's pretty bad and illustrates how one-sided these people are. The left is an evil stepmother that really hates your guts for messing up her illusion of a perfect family, and boy can she get vicious.

    Was it Daniel Hannen who recently wrote in the Guardian that the hatred of the "Progressive" Left was decidedly unprogreesive? Some of the comments he got were quite extraordinary. His conclusion was that the Left (rather like extreme religious sects) is a magnet for misanphropes who want to feel good about hating people.

    I'll let you in on a little secret, the real reason I'm Right-Wing is I just can't get behind the hate-mo ngering of the Left.

    I can relate, these self-congratulating self-appointed morally superior gutmenschen are vicious like only females can be. If you tried explaining to her that it's nasty she won't be able to understand, she feels she has the right because she feels superior. Kinda funny how they become what they say they are against, the ubermensch.

    or for another:

    http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisf...m-of-tory-cuts

    There are lots of inadequates in this world who, dimly aware of their own failings, attempt to shield themselves and their social circle from this truth by donning the mantle of a cause, usually one deemed universally to be a 'good' thing. By stridently adopting the arguments of the 'good' cause they hope to banish these blemishes from self and circle.

    Young left-wing firebrands are almost a case study in this phenomenon, as being socially 'nice' to people is the ultimate 'good' cause and thus unconsciously or otherwise is perceived as the most potent social camouflage.

    Our refusal to give credence to their ideas by reflecting the same hatred as they hold for us only makes that hatred more visceral.

    For the sake of my newly restored equanimity chaps, let's address the core of Philipvs' opening post rather than post mindless insults aimed at whichever group one finds risible.

    Thank you kindly.
