LOL What's different. Politics is always about making things look a bit better than they may be in practice. Perhaps the left is generally more straight forwards.
What some need to get to grips with is that we are coming out of one grand experiment and are about to enter a new one.
Personally I think the old one was ok as any arrangement in the modern world will have it's problems. It was slowly achieving some of it's aims. The new one ????? have to wait and see.
The UK's problems? Totally different subject and in no way related to the EU. Those are entirely down to profit margins and ease of achieving them. Whoops should add if more things are made here.
ajohn, with respect, your comment, (and the previous one) look like a jumble of thoughts masquerading as a reasoned comment.
Perhaps you might permit me to go through your post with my own comments, from an outsider, who didn't know what you were thinking when you wrote your post.
"Politics is always about making things look a bit better than they may be in practice."
Not necessarily, politics can also be about being truthful, or even painting a worse picture than reality. For example: highlighting a minor issue to mask a more major issue.
"Perhaps the left is generally more straight forwards."
Surely, it isn't about the ideology. It's about the integrity of the politician.
"What some need to get to grips with is that we are coming out of one grand experiment and are about to enter a new one."
Where are you going now? What 'grand experiment are you talking about'? When you explain what grand experiment you are talking about, you need to have some agreement about whether it is/was an experiment at all. Then what new 'experiment' are we about to enter? Additionally, why do some need to get to grips with it? Who do you think is not 'at grips with it'?
"Personally I think the old one was ok as any arrangement in the modern world will have it's problems. It was slowly achieving some of it's aims. The new one ????? have to wait and see."
The old what? Are you still talking about experiments? New paragraphs, (in your style) tend to indicate a change of subject, but is this new paragraph an anomaly in your style? If you are still talking about experiments, why do they have problems in the modern world, implying that they don't in the 'old' world? What were the aims of the old 'experiment'?
"The UK's problems? Totally different subject and in no way related to the EU. "
A typical total change of subject without signposts. What UK problems are you referring to? If it is a totally different subject and in now way related to the EU, why mention it?
I do hope that you do not take my comments as anything other than constructive criticism. I have tried to be polite, and constructive.
Some probably think no it didn't effect me - jokers. The lot that got Mrs T in power made a lot of use of professional advertising agencies. Labour and others lag way way behind in this sort of thing. People are still under Mrs T's spell as well.
