2024 General Election

[Saga Lout]

My theory has been, for years, that there are some elections where both sides want to win. And some where neither do.

This one the Cons don't want to win.

Reducing CO2 emissions will not in itself "keep the planet from hitting regulo 4" because increasing CO2 levels are not the cause of global warming but are instead the result of global warming.

Nope. You've got it the wrong way around. The rise in CO2 levels is driving global warming, which in turn is driving a feedback loop as temperatures rise globally and unlock greenhouse gases (mainly methane) in thawing permafrost.

Ah yes, the feedback loop much beloved by António Guterres and his fellow snouts in the trough travellers who depend on making a living from the 20 year old now discredited theory that CO2 causes global warming. A perfect example of correlation not being causation.

I really should have known, shouldn't I? Oh well - it's off topic, so time to let it lie. Are you a flat-earther as well?

Describing someone who doesn't believe your particular version of global warming as an idiot (because that is what flat earther means) is of course an ad hominem, the final resort of those with a limited intellect. As you said, let it lie.

I didn't call you an idiot. You made that connection (flat-earther=idiot) and then tried to use that to state I was making an ad-hominem attack on you. FWIW I'd say flat-earthers are deluded, not necessarily idiots. Draw your own conclusions (I'm sure you will).

Thanks for the intervention - well timed.

Are the Tories deliberately trying to lose the youth vote?

Earlier:

So far ...

- the 'Titanic' event
- the 'Euros' embarrassment
- the 'Don't make the £2000 claim' oh but he did
- the going home for cocoa - and an ITV interview - from Normandy 'mistake'

Whoever's planning all this is doing a phenomenal job!

[gremlin]

As the military experts may have called it, 'A strategic withdrawal to regroup and consider a counterattack at a later point in time'

(Throw the match this time around, dump the goon at the top, sort our shit out and try again next time)

And the latest gem:

"Rishi Sunak says it's now harder for people to have their own home under a Conservative government"

[Mussels]

Did these people learn nothing from attempts to bully Trump? Unless the guy who threw these did it as a false flag exercise.

The guy's an idiot. It's still a free country.

And the bloke who threw stuff is too.

The Barnsley FB groups are up in arms about how bad it makes the town look... Turns out the fella is from Chesterfield.

Any publicity is worth paying for?

[gremlin]

Fucking morons.

If you don't like him and what he stands for, then don't vote for him. That's how democracy works.

I thought all of the north of England was like an enchanted forest populated by gnome-like people whole lived in houses shaped like giant toadstools.

Past Leeds, the A1 is cobbled.
