  1. Well, he either needs to do that or convincingly shift the narrative elsewhere. He isn't going to turn around on immigration so the plan must be to hijack the narrative. It's doable, it's just unlikely to work since UKIP have already made and entrenched over about a decade their case for anti-immigration populism.
  2. True enough but it's worth a shot. I'd far rather we had populism of the left and really, the same things people get angry enough about to join the populist right could be co-opted by the left with the exception of immigration. But they could replace that with the rich probably.
  3. I think it's a good idea, personally. Better than continuing with what they're doing, at least.
  4. That transfer for that Alvarez guy pretty much sums them up. Paid £10m for a player who went to another team because Sunderland were attempting to weasel out of the deal. I never think they get enough stick for that, it was probably one of the least competent things I've seen in football.
  5. Well, I'm hammered. Typical Thursday. Work Christmas party tomorrow followed by a visit to the in-laws. Not sure what state I'll be in but meh, its Christmas.
  6. She looks like the socially awkward kid at school.
  7. I think it's just that they're newly promoted and the mackems consider them to have the shittest name and stature.
  8. You've got time, and just think how much more impressive/how pissed ewerk will be if you manage it now
  9. I know, but surely more of us read Murdoch's papers than read RT. Look, my point was Murdoch is consolidating his power to become the most powerful media force this country has ever seen
  10. Of course Russian media is. But we don't read Russian newspapers day to day. We do read Murdoch's.
  11. The reason it works is because so much of our media (Murdoch) is biased and corrupt though.
  12. I broadly agree with that. Fwiw I'm mostly just throwing it around because people expect me to. That said, Murdoch genuinely is the literal mainstream, and this move genuinely is a concern.
  13. The entirely benign MSM and its overlord getting on with business as usual here: https://www.theguardian.com/business/2016/dec/15/rupert-murdoch-sky-bid-pay-tv
  14. - best all round poster (football): The Fish (controversial!) - best all round poster (general): ewerk - funniest poster: Gemmill - most thought provoking thread starter: The Fish (football section only - in general I'd say HF) - poster you'd most like to go for a beer with: Monkey's Fist (but tbf I'd include half the board in this) - poster you'd most like to slap in the face with a wet fish: essembee is an obvious target but ffs I can't think of anyone better - thickest skin: essembee - thinnest skin: Stevie I guess? - best fact checker: Happy Face - biggest blairite: Renton - biggest trot: Paddock Lad since his views are fairly close to mine - most likely to end up in an insane asylum: The Fish, after years of ceaseless ribbing about Dummettgate - biggest hipster wanker: Dr Gloom - most sanctimonious: Probably J69 during his offensive against Renton, but tbf I don't think he's that bad at all really. - most missed former poster: CT - the leazesmag award for the poster most likely to start an argument with him/herself: Tempted to say CT again here given his flip flopping on issues. - best female poster: catmag
  15. Until you're doing it in the multiplayer when it becomes brutal
