See the comments about the voting public as said by Polly Toynbee, Kevin Maguire, Neil Kinnock and Ken Livingstone.

I am appalled they treat us with such contempt!!! Remember this in 2020!

It's nice to see how the right wingers are so magnanimous in victory.
Well done them.
Talking of contempt, Michael Gove's done well, hasn't he?

It's the bike spit at the British people that I was talking about! I haven't seen you being magnanimous on this Forum Talbot!

Really? Even when I said 'have a nice day, Linda'

When Balls lost his seat?
i doubt whether any party would choose to leave an important decision like picking the country's leaders, to the public - many institutions treat the UK population with contempt, and consider us to have the brain power and attention span of slugs.

I will absolutely not vote for Polly Toynbee in 2020.
Right now the result is going to sting and some people are going to open their mouths prematurely and voice their anger and disappointment in a way that they should not. We've already seen some pathetic responses outside Downing Street, for example -- although I suspect those people who defaced war memorials would have found a reason to protest at something else anyway.

Toynbee is another Champagne Socialist. Never mind she can begger off to her Italian Mansion and lick her wounds !!

michael gove proved himself to be something of a muppet when it came to education - approving the teaching of creationism as science in 3 academies, before this was overturned following a campaign led by the humanist society
If so many of you Tories didn't behave exactly like the gloop-brained (assume that is meant to be pejorative) folk Kevin Maguire talks about then there might be more sympathy
I mean how else can you explain the comparison of Scotland to Nazi Germany, the idea that anyone to the left of a Nick Clegg is a street fighting anarchist or that AB is the preserve of left wing fascists
I mean, seriously now :-)
The idea that AB is dominated by left-wingers is something rather put paid to by:

The news section questions often being started by AOG and supported by, among others, TTT, youngmafbog, New Judge, svejk, bazwilrun and many others, who are all staunchly and proudly right-wing and not exactly quiet about it either;

The steady drip-drip away of more typical left-wingers from those debates;

The AB's own election poll showing 103 people voting for right-wing and 75 for left-wing parties.

I don't see this bias. I really don't.

Perhaps so but it seems wrong to draw a correlation between their being right-wing and their being suspended. Suspension is usually preceded by a crassly offensive comment.

Left-wing people just tend to drift away rather than being banned, but the result is a site that has roughly speaking even numbers of left- and right-wingers. This makes for interesting and sometimes passionate debates. As to moderating policy, I don't have any part in that.
