Guest Posted November 11, 2023 Share Posted November 11, 2023 4 hours ago, Delbow said: All three media outlets ran stories which contained allegations that poppy sellers at several rail stations had been variously intimated, threatened and pushed by people protesting against the Israeli military action in Gaza. The Royal British Legion has since said that they had no such reports from any of their volunteers and they have no evidence that these things happened. So, why did they lie? Because it's what the righty's want to read to reinforce their opinions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am indeed, and proud of it - it distances me from the ruling Sewage Party who you don't recognise but the majority do.

True, but also to influence opinions. Most of the popular press is right wing, and desperate to push their agenda. You will find very little which gives the Palestinian point of view. Blatant right wing media bias is a significant problem in this country. Do you really want the elite mega rich media moguls telling you what to think and deciding who should be in power....?

When they don't, what will your excuse be then? No, they won't win because the governments of the last13 years have been the very worst this country has had since WW2 and even you know it. They cannot hide that the economy is stagnant at Zero, taxes are highest since WW2 ( except for those at the top ), they cannot protect our borders and they are breaking International Law. The NHS is almost ruined, Our railways are the worlds worst, our public buildings are crumbling, our trade has taken a nose dive and pollution of rivers and seas has never been worse. No excuse will be needed. As Labour have a Tory leading them, I don't care whether Labour win or not. A hung Parliament is what this country needs to stop politicians filling their pockets.
