 No it wasn't me that posted a picture of Ben Turpin.

Why the argumentativeness because I paste something off social media? As I said above - it's allowed, and it adds to the debate.

Interesting that the 2 people complaining are Tories, just at the time they're doing spectacularly badly in the country.

Is that what you're both seething about?

 

Complaining that something came via social media allows them to dismiss it as trivial regardless of the merit of what was posted. Notice they've studiously avoided acknowledging that the O'Brien post was actually a quote from The Times - it's difficult for them to criticise a Tory supporting newspaper's article as being trivial.

Yes, and I wouldn't mind as much if they debated the merits of the argument; it's just bitching about me using something from social media. Not because they're that bothered by social media - well they can't be because this forum is social media; but because Rishi Sunak is having a bad time. 

Very bizarre because the Tories have been having a particularly bad time since 2019, but I don't remember them debating the issues.....Perhaps they assumed that the right wing press would spring into action, blather on about Corbyn or Emily Thornberry for a bit, the polls would turn round and all would be well in the world. But it's not happened like that.
