Mandy Lifeboats Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 One of the selling points of Brexit was that it would allow the UK to be governed by the UK legal system. The UK legal system decides that Brexit needs to go through parliament and the papers are up in arms. Unlike rain on your wedding day.....that is ironic. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post StefanAVFC Posted November 4, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted November 4, 2016 (edited) An MP gets killed by somebody yelling death to traitors and less than 6 months later, we have a mainstream paper labelling people, who govern over democracy, as "enemies of the people" with huge pictures of them, on their front page. Shocking behaviour. A further slip into a world devoid of the facts where propaganda is rampant. Edited November 4, 2016 by StefanAVFC 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Davkaus Posted November 4, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted November 4, 2016 Reading the Daily Mail or the Sun should be treated the way that reading the Sun is in Liverpool. It should be a rag that readers feel like they have to hide in a paper bag so that nobody sees them carrying it. If I saw a friend reading that shit, I don't think I'd speak to them again, it's **** shameful. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is when the point being made was about a world that's factually devoid pedantic ? maybe , but it was the same in another thread whereby Trump was called a rapist , now he's a lot of things but as it stands he isn't a rapist it should also also be noted that it hasn't been established he shouted "put Britain first" either , witness reports from the time seem to differ on that Edited November 5, 2016 by tonyh29 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mixing up what he said when he shot her in cold blood and what he said when he was in court for the crime is hardly a big deal. re: Trump, it was one adjective in a string of others. I probably should have omitted it. But for me or phrased it differently because he had committed sexual assault in the past.

Read the posts Ruge. It's totally unacceptable to label 3 judges, who made objectively correct decision when it comes to British constitution and law, as 'Enemies of the people' with their faces printed on the front page of a newspaper with a readership of millions. Totally unacceptable. 1) It's a lie. They didn't do anything wrong. They're not blocking Brexit. 2) A lot of people who voted Leave wanted sovereignty. This is sovereignty in action! That one person cannot make such a huge decision and it has to go through the elected parliament. 3) It's stirring the pot and inciting hatred in a very unstable and divided climate. There's "nothing" wrong with a newspaper taking a side and a viewpoint. But when it's blatantly lying and misleading its readership with outright dangerous front pages, then we have a huge problem. It's akin to propaganda. Edited November 5, 2016 by StefanAVFC 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rugeley Villa Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 Yeah I read the article about the judges. And yes I'd agree it wrong to demonise anyone for doing the right thing. There is also a lot of truth in what gets printed in the mail. All papers like to stir the pot for their own benefits. I only buy it for the horse racing tips anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chindie Posted November 5, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted November 5, 2016 (edited) The Heil is a shitstained rag with a sordid and sobering history, run by a deeply unpleasant individual, that hides a sub tabloid rhetoric behind a veneer of respectability. It regularly comes within a hairs breadth of stoking very disturbing mindsets in its readership. It's a despicable piece of shit. At least the Sun doesn't pretend to be anything other than the mouthpiece of the average word removed.
