Ally Bongo Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 (edited) I think this is a very unwise move by Nicola. There is absolutely no need for her to get into a televised debate with Farage and it's a hiding to absolutely nothing. There are some very good reasons for leaving the EU that cannot be succesfully argued against - see the fisherman on Thursday's QT for example This is Farage's territory and i doubt anyone knows more about what can grind folks gears about the EU than him Remember when we all thought Salmond would wipe the floor with Darling in the televised debates ? Sturgeon doesnt have a second half to rescue herself if it goes tits up Edited May 14, 2016 by Ally Bongo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was your man deecie who you have backed up. As for whining about gratuitous and warranted insults while calling folk a racist for next to feck all you have some brass neck. How about you explain how exactly that post merits being called a racist? And I do mean that without making a bunch of prejudiced assumptions about the poster. It is you who is showing up their prejudices here. Totally over the top so dont go all mock offended in return. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly how does suggesting that country joining the EU might be a bad idea make somebody racist? I would be completely pissed off if Turkey gained admission, mostly because of the death penalty and the clamp down on free speech. I guess I am racist too. What a bunch of fannies.

The poster made a prejudiced comment about Albanians, Bosnians and Turks without them ever having been part of the thread or even part of the EU referendum debate. That is undeniable. And for your information, I've been based in the Balkans since 2008 - 7 years in Tirana, Albania, and this post comes from Podgorica, Montenegro. So there is no whining from me. You calling me or anyone else a fanny is inappropriate at any time. In this case you've just shown yourself up as being intolerant of others' opinions.

In this particular the poster made comment about countries joining the EU, no comments about race or citizens of those countries. I reserve the right to call anybody a fannie who assumes or implies racism when there is absolutely to evidence for it. 17 minutes ago, Ally Bongo said: Purely being Devils Advocate The pro EU argument would be that if these countries join they would change their laws in line with EU values Hmmm, like the EU doesn't bend the rules?

It should represent how blindingly obvious it is, if we're all in agreement. Turkey can't be admitted atm anyway. It has a porous border in which thousands of people and weapons pour through, it's treatment of the kurds. Nuclear proliferation if Sibel Edmonds is to be believed. Black-market used by ISIS to sell oil etc. It would be ridiculous to consider admission at the moment. Not Racist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thplinth Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 When you call someone a 'racist' on the basis of that one post and then start talking about his 'hatred' what do you expect. For you to be whining about being called a 'fanny' after playing the race card after one post and talking about 'hatred' just again shows your incredible ability to make yourselves the false victim when in fact you are the No.1 problem.

Where did I ever call him a racist? Once again - he was the one who introduced Albanians, Bosnians and Turks into a thread that has nothing - repeat NOTHING - to do with them. He introduces that to the conversation - he has to stand by that statement. He made an ill-considered statement, that's it. Please take your angst out on GirvanTA for having made that statement - not those os us who pulled him up for his stereotypical soundbite. Leave those of us who showed him up for his ill-consideration alone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
