truman Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 So ,are you inferring that young Muslims are easily swayed? No. It's a counter to Donkey's assertion that only people with the backing of multi millionaires and media moguls have any chance of election (I think) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rossyrooney Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 My apologies to Caparo. I was using politician speak to show how easy it is to be mealy mouthed and to totally misconstrue the article and shift the onus onto something delicate to avoid answering. Soz matey.....

Neither Galloway - nor anyone else with an agenda which would severely damage the power base and profitability of the various concerns represented by all three major political parties - would be allowed to get their hands on real positions of power.

rossyrooney Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 I'm happy with the coalition, I think it's good for the country - better than a single party anyway. I also respond whether I approve or disapprove of the governments handling of a particular issue. I'm not afraid to tell them when they're wrong - either through YouGov or via regular party channels. And that's what the party wants and respects - people who tell them rather than career ladder climbing "yes" men.[/QUOTE] [/i][/b][/size] Big up Alky....you've brightened up my morning,i usually go to the Garfield strip to lift my spirits,but you've topped anything the funnies can do.
