I've never heard the expression "threw everyone on the stick" so I don't know what you're on about. If it's a typo for "on the sick" I thought that was more of a New Labour trick. If you were sticking to the subject of university education, that was a post-Thatcher phenomenon: student numbers have doubled since 1992.

Yes a typo sorry. You are once again wrong regarding thatcher as you seem to be wrong about recent history when it suits your arguement, for example i remember you trying to re write history  by denying a previous labour manifesto (83 i believe) did not want to leave the eu. Your claim was false, labour did indeed pledge to leave the eu in their first term, thatcher and the tories rmeanwhile made no such pledge. How times change.

 

As for thatcher throwing a generation on to the sick, i think you may find you are once again wrong

Right. So you’d lost the argument about student places and changed the subject entirely. As you do.

 

So, I'd misremembered the bit about who started putting people on the sick. Big whoop. It was a policy enthusiastically promoted by the Government that Thatcher considered her greatest achievement: a cunt's policy, whoever did it.

 

On the subject of misremembering who did what, you need to check who was making claims about the 1983 manifesto.  I don't think I got involved in that particular barney.

I know you're failing to understand it. Firstly, I've not even mentioned it, so it'd be hard to understand solely on the basis that it is entirely fabricated. Secondly, I have spoken out on here for the better part of a decade against austerity driven politics. I don't want more of it. I don't want more cuts, more economic damage, etc., that will come from leaving the EU.

 

The problem I have is you're suggesting I support that. I don't. The ignorance it takes to suggest such a thing is what's flumoxing, not whatever you're talking about, which is barely coherent.

It really is quite simple. The eu has supported the politics and policy of austerity. You i believe support the eu.  So make of that what you will.

Yes, this is the crux of our disagreement. I, as somebody who has been vocally against austerity on here and elsewhere, do think the EU nations mostly reacted with both austerity and some other measures. You, for some reason, think that because I don't want to cost the country billions and billions and billions and billions and billions and billions of pounds over the next 10 years, meaning that we will have even less to spend on services that are needed by the poor, that I actually support those things. That doesn't make sense and is, I'm telling you, completely wrong.

Youve side stepped the crux as you put it of my point. The eu supported the austerity mesures that put milions of the continents youth on the dole. I'll give you the youth unemployment rates again if you disagree. Do you disagree?

 

As for being in the eu meens spending money on the poor  your either deluded or disingenuous.  Sorry to break it to you but richh landowners have taken the spoils.

Is there really any need?

 

 Im against us staying in the eu, a lot of other people are too. Its not a crime to hold an alternatie view. 

 

Is there really any need to post video's of your poor kids?

Lovely to be so conserned with the eu's  continued help of the poor. I hope it cleanses your soul.

 

Meanwhile back on planet reality
