Starmer abandons plans to cancel local elections

fancythat

I am getting I have no idea what you are talking about?

I will spell things out.

No, Labour quite likely[well almost definite!! wasnt pure!].

Reform may not be either.

Some posters think 1 would cancel out the other, It does not.

Does not in any aspect of life.
Mums often try to say of their wayward son, "well look at Tommy ov er there,>"He is worse than my son".

What difference does that make to anything?!!!
It certainly does not exonerte the first wayward son.
How on earth could it possibly.

Not going to bother to reply to your last 6 words.
It is like the "I know what you are thinking" stuff. Which is nearly always a load of rubbish.

Seriously, I rest my case. You have made your point. We don’t agree with you. You are not either right or wrong, however many times you say exactly the same thing in different words, Round and round we will keep going otherwise.

Good to hear that👍🏻 AGAA4

Is that the Royal ‘we’ Casdon ? I ask as there are many posts that don’t agree with you either on the subject ofLabour wanting to cancel local elections.Telling councils that they needn’t bother if they don’t want to, citing cost and boundary changes in a year when the more likely reason is fear this year that Reform will do well was always going to cause problems.

I haven’t seen FriedGreentomatoes on here for a while. Hope she’s ok?

You need to RTT to see how the conversation went.

Oreo it is AGAA4 and I, and I was referring to the specific conversation we were having with fancythatI thought that was quite clear from the protracted discussion, perhaps you hadn’t read it before commenting.

Yes I have read the whole thread.

I was thinking that too only I couldn’t remember her GN name.
She said her husband had serious health problems at one point.
A very nice poster who stayed cheerful despite having problems.

Oreo

Yes I have read the whole thread.

So no need for that reply to Casdon was there.

Yes there was.

Oreo

Yes there was.

It was rude to speak of the Royal we if you knew how the conversation went.
As Casdon explained it was clear that we was Casdon and me. Nobody else.

Thank you Oreo.

Not rude at all AGAA4 I really dislike the use of ‘we’ aimed at a poster whether it’s two other posters or a dozen.
Each poster can answer for themselves or say ‘I agree with *’
I have seen the ‘we’ used on forums before to silence posters.
Actually it doesn’t matter if you and Casdon don’t agree with
fancythat or how many times a poster wants to say something, they are free to go on making their point.

Oreo. I have never used the royal ‘we. I don’t care if you disagree with what I said, but I do think it was very clear that I wasn’t using it then either. I’m not interested in hearing the same point from the same person repeated over and over, so I was absenting myself from the backwards and forwards of it, was all.

Oreo freedom to express their views applies to all on GN not just those you agree with.

AGAA4

Oreo freedom to express their views applies to all on GN not just those you agree with.

Oh the irony!

What are you accusing me of Oreo?
You need to spell it out rather than say oh the irony.
I have been on GN for many years now and listen to others' views but may disagree and that's allowed.

All posters are the same on a forum, length of tenure doesn’t make any difference and all are free to voice their opinion for as long as they care to.

You haven't answered my question. I think I know what GN is all about without you telling me.

But what is being referred to was a specific discussion between three people Oreo. You can’t interject to police people saying they have had enough of that particular discussion because it’s going nowhere. Nobody is saying that the other person should not carry on?

Who have I told that they aren't free to voice their opinions? You are making false accusations without explaining.

You did say you had enough of the discussion Casdon and told fancythat that she had made her point it was going round in circles and that ‘we’ don’t agree with you.It wasn’t a personal discussion between three people it was a discussion on an open forum.
You’ve made your point now and I’ve made mine so all is well.

I didn't actually say that. If you read back that was not me.
I only disagreed with fancythat's views that's all.
You need to get your facts straight before you accuse other posters!

No all is not well as I don't like lies told about me Oreo

I’m getting very bored now with this.
I addressed my comments above to Casdon not you.
