    I know I have had a right rant about things like these PC culture and difference of opinion being vetoed is getting out of hand it's like you can say nothing anymore for fear of offending someone or being called stupid.

    Right. How does that make anyone intellectually lazy? Are people not allowed to have their own opinions these days? :o

    I also got called a troll for saying that I would not be boycotting Amazon and will shop how and where I want, and also that public services would run better if they were opened up to free markets.

    Socialists are so easy to wind up :D I wasn't even trying to do so :eek:

    It's ridiculous. It seems that people are not entitled to opinions any more. They all have to be sheep and agree with everything they're told or else. What happened to free speech and original thinking? >:( And this politically correct world we live in is completely stupid. I think modern society has gone stark raving mad.

    If thinking for myself and airing my opinions makes me an arse hole, so be it, I am an arse hole. Bloody proud of it too :D

    I'm gonna have to stop commenting on Guardian articles. Got called ignorant today for stating that the differences between Tories and Labour are negligible.

    Then again, someone needs to call out their bullshit :D

    So true Truth there is no real difference anymore they all morphed into one long ago. That said It's unlikely that I would ever vote Tory privileged tossers then again aren't they all :D:D.

    Hey CNBC How's you :)?

    I wouldn't vote for either as I consider myself fairly libertarian and neither are anywhere near. Don't even get me started on UKIP and their negative politics :eek:

    I do like the Pirate Party though as they have some really good ideas and actually fight to protect our civil liberties.

    Same here Truth but it's more than likely they will get in and it's which is the lesser of two evils :D. As for UKIP they have one policy that's it there is no other purpose to them and I shall look up the pirate party :).

    It's possible, but who knows? :p If I was to ever vote in the UK again I would vote for the Monster Raving Loony Party or the Pirate Party :D

    The purpose of Farage and UKIP is the same as the purpose of Jim Alastair and TUV in Northern Ireland, disruption. It is pure negative politics that offers no solutions but the sad thing is the British public are falling for it.

    Hi Truth. How are you?

    No problem. I know that it's bad but I don't know the first thing about it. I should take an interest in it really seeing as it will affect my future but I can't help but believe that all of them lie to get votes anyway and then go back on their word. Maybe that's ignorance on my part, I don't know.

    I would say it is probably more a case of apathy brought on by years (even decades) of being lied to.

    I'm good. Trying to get the 2nd stag weekend of the year organised and I am not even the best man (he is too busy with his own wedding plans).

    I have a wedding to go to in a couple of weeks for a childhood friend. :) I'm very much looking forward to it as I haven't seen her family for over 6 years. Haven't met the fiancé yet. :) First time I'll be meeting him is on the wedding day.

    We're planning on Edinburgh for this stag weekend which should be fun. We had one in Newcastle earlier in the year but we can't go to the same place twice.

    Is it common these days to have more than one stag do? I haven't heard of people doing that before. :)
