Baroness Warsi has quit the Conservative Party:
Itâs a pity, as she was one of the few traditional conservative voices left.

Yet 320 of the 350 licences to sell arms to Israel are still active.
Youâve cancelled 30 of them.
The clock is ticking on this fraud.

Can I just point out that the cancellations only took place because of a legal review, and has nothing to do with a political standpoint?
That is, itâs even worse than it looks.

Yeah rightâŚ
On another note, they have been banging on about this for years. Did they not do their homework?
Treasury officials acknowledge that scrapping two concessions made by the previous government might not raise the ÂŁ1bn they thought it would, or indeed any money at all.
The ÂŁ1bn is earmarked in the Labour manifesto for extra hospital and dental appointments and school breakfast clubs.
You obviously have internet access. Go look it up.

An opposition party does not have the resources or access to data that the government does. It wouldnât be a surprise if Treasury modelling therefore shows something different to what earlier analysts put together for labour ahead of the elections.
The key question is though how solid are the assumptions that get built into such models?

If it is on the internet it must be true then. Sorry I doubted it.
If I remember well, the thread poll on TIA was quite accurate when compared to how the actual voting results panned out.
By the way, you can air your views and ideas as much as you want, no-one will âcancelâ you, whatever that means. But on a discussion forum, they will be challenged, and thatâs how it should be.

Oh all their pledges are fully priced. Absolutely will work once they get in. They just need to noose that illusive gold shitting unicorn.
8 years.
You fuckers can be boiled in oil too.
Absolute fucking idiots.
I strongly agree with their cause; equally, I vehemently disagree with their modus operandi.

Now that you have mentioned it, I do recall the poll being quite balanced. But, there was definitely a predominantly pro remain voice on the thread. Why was that?
I disagree with your view on no-one will âcancelâ you - Please note, I actually hate the term cancelled and apologise for using it.
I have no problem being challenged, thatâs how a debate should be. However, look at the responses to my posts.
You have Mascot saying âgive your head a wobbleâ to my opinion about how the Brexit thread was.
You then have Mascot and Redbj respond almost identically to my post
With
So, only young people go to Gym/Gigs?? 
Redbj, then has the audacity to reply mockingly of the âBrexit minority Far righters crying persecutionâ yet still jumps on the band wagon of Labour being persecuted by the Far Right media.
I am happy to have my points challenged where needed, but in my opinion these responses are not challenging my point of view, merely ignorant.
So, basically you have a problem with Mascotâs style of debating, which, I agree, can be grating at times.
However, this is a Liverpool fan forum, and any knowledge of the history and traditions of the club will lead you to know that it has a long history of association with the left. Itâs hardly surprising that this place would reflect that to some degree. I certainly wouldnât expect it to perfectly reflect attitudes on a national scale. Iâd imagine that a Chelsea fan forum would be more conservative leaning, for example.
Most people on here argue in a reasonable manner, many, like me ;-), are knowledgeable and educated, but itâs the nature of the internet that disagreements are amplified and misunderstandings occur.
