Sorted COVID by forgetting about the old folk and they died in their tens of thousands. Rewrite history all you want, Pete but their handling at the start was an absolute shambles! Always one step behind.

Not forgetting the middle - accusing Keir Starter of wanting to 'cancel Christmas' and only for days later to do exactly the same. His track record after that was hardly worth many plaudits.

Tbf, people back in the 50’s and 60’s experienced poverty that today’s people could not comprehend. This is why I say there was no wonderful past. People had no money, they had little in the way of clothes, technology didn’t exist and life was pretty miserable. Of course today poverty means no iPad , or an older one, cheap trainers, and a 7 year old car….

I truly hope you don't believe that, Pete. Kids genuinely are going hungry. Schools are feeding them in the mornings. Just because you can't see it doesn't mean it's not there. It really shouldn't be 'my poverty was worse than your poverty'. Yes, there are very many feckless parents out there but there are also many people in a trap not of their making.

If you truly believe what you have written about poverty today, I fear you have lost your empathy. Classic strategy getting people to look 'downwards' whilst those 'upwards' rob us blind.

*Forrest Gump voice* ....and that's all I have to say about that! Long day today, longer tomorrow.

No mate, the tories 'sorted' poverty. It's all about ipads now.

Food banks and all are clearly a hoax.

Hang on, let me flip that for fun.

Are you telling me that the Conservative party do not have a better, more honest, cleaner, more presentable, coherent politician than serial lying, abusive, corrupt, party clown act and narcissistic Boris Johnson?

Is that what you are telling me Peter?

Based on that statement, I actually won’t waste my time with you any longer on the topic.

And don’t try and take the higher ground claiming I can’t name one, when your thinking is this warped I seriously cannot be bothered debating with you on the matter.

No offence, but I’d rather pick sweetcorn out of my poop than debate with this level of opinion.

And, I appreciate a lot of it is about opinions….but Jesus man lol

Strangely enough I’ve asked this question many times in these threads. Until Chewbacca mentioned Jeremy Corbyn, and I give him credit for at least doing so, every person I’ve asked made some flimsy excuse, like you have just done, not to give an answer……
