Maybe he isn't on the wind-up after all

Surely it's up to the EU to sort out this mess
-
Is this you banging the drum for Tory policy again? I can see why you vote for them, based on what you've just described.
-
Odd that you'd take offence at something which wasn't suggested. I'd like to think you're on the wind-up because the alternative is you've failed to grasp a fairly basic concept.

Mr Raw Wanker can’t have been his teal name

Put it this way - if you use poor analogies that demonstrate a lack of understanding of the subject at hand then maybe you’re trying too hard

I’m in favour of the free market so long as it benefits me. Pun intended. Brexit in a nutshell
-
That is being against the market though
-
They aren’t pulling the strings (if they are extreme left wing) because the policies aren’t reflective of that. Another good effort though
-
You’re a massive hypocrite, I get it
-
I never expressed an opinion either way. However there’s an obvious contradiction between CT conceding Corbyn’s policies aren’t hard left whilst simultaneously arguing he’s a puppet of a hard left movement. Nice try though
-
Is this still you arguing against the benefits of the state helping people out? Because you seem to have tucked yourself in if it is
-
Seems odd that voted for him though
-
You’re not stupid enough to miscomprehend the point to that degree but not clever enough to twist the argument convincingly.

It does. They aren’t

The OFFICIAL Transfer Rumours Thread 2018 -2019
Alex replied to Anorthernsoul's topic in Newcastle Forum
Is that a lot in the current market? I know he’s relatively unproven but you’re not going to get much quality for less than that in terms of attacking talent -

Btw, I just looked this up for you (don't thank me, it's ok). According to the report, the State grew rapidly in the 1960s and by 1975 Sweden was the 4th richest nation in the world (again, this seems unlikely to me, but it's according to the report you seem to be referring to, it's not my claim). They've subsequently dropped down (again according to this report). Whatever the case, that seems like a rather weird way of manipulating figures to fit an argument. I.e. it's apparently saying the increase (not the introduction) of the welfare state there in the 1960s had nothing to do with Sweden becoming the 4th richest a decade or so later but it had everything to do with Sweden subsequently becoming 'only' the 13th richest country in the world by the mid-90s (what's happened since then? That's over 20 years ago. Again this seems like an odd place to stop looking at the picture since the report in question only came out in 2015). Now, I'll confess that I've only looked at an article that refers to this report and I haven't read the report itself. I know you will have done so though, so maybe you can fill in the gaps. Either that or finish colouring your arm in

That is fucking amazing

Yeah, that's a bit vague, isn't it?
