I'm rapidly coming round to the theory that 'leftism' is an illness.


The questions is ...

Nick Clegg Knighthood
For what?

[Islay]

Oh right so I was right then a petty little insult!
Well TTT get your facts right I am not against Britain or anti British or VB in fact quite the opposite!
But if you cannot see that Farage is a silly man hell bent on wrecking this country then you really need to go to Specsavers!

[-Talbot-]

Khandro has not asked a question about Farage,

[anneasquith]

Yet Nigel Farage snubbed again, should we just ignore that part of the OP ?

[Zacs-Master]

It’s a complete misnomer anyway, Islay. Vichy France represented the free part of France in WWII so really should be likened to leave voters, if anything, as they want us to be free from the EU.
Oh, and we don’t have a city called Vichy either.

[-Talbot-]

Farage is not hell-bent on wrecking this country.

What is the evidence for your assertion, Islay?

[scooping]

And Clegg isn't Dutch.

[scooping]

And Vichy France was in no way 'free'. It was just unoccupied by the Germans for a time and the Vichy authorities were collaborationists. Later, it was occupied by the Nazis.

"Well TTT get your facts right I am not against Britain or anti British or VB in fact quite the opposite!" - you demostrate it every time you open your trap .
But if you cannot see that Farage is a silly man hell bent on wrecking this country then you really need to go to Specsavers! - Silly, by single handedly freeing us from Tyranny? right oh!

[ToraToraTora]

"It’s a complete misnomer anyway, Islay. Vichy France represented the free part of France in WWII" - ZM you excel yourself, only you could portray the WWII French Collaborating Nazi Puppet government as "free"! PMSL!

anne, look at your two offerings then look at the question being asked ... then sit down and have a think about whether you are grasping the idea of Answerbank

[ToraToraTora]

"Farage is not hell-bent on wrecking this country.
What is the evidence for your assertion, Islay? " - Talbot it's because Islay et al blame Farage because they did not get their own way in the brexit vote. They prefer to remain under the control of a corrupt unelected power and thus blame the architect of brexit.

[Hopkirk]

Scooping, yes.

Margaret Thatcher became a Dame - equivalent of a Sir.

[Khandro]

Clegg did promise to scrap tuition fees;
http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/nick-clegg-im-sorry-for-breaking-tuition-fee-promise-8157154.html

and he's half-Dutch and has a lot of Dutch relatives, and (imo) he thinks like a Dutchman.

[Islay]

He has this country fighting each other of who is right and who is wrong.
Racially motivated attacks have increased
And then you have his silly supporters accusing everyone else of being traitors

[scooping]

Was previously unaware that being 'half-Dutch' was something to cause concern.

[Khandro]

//Was previously unaware that being 'half-Dutch' was something to cause concern.//

Well now you know :0)

[Cloverjo]

M Thatcher became a Baroness, not a Dame.

I don't think Thatcher, Clegg or Farage deserve any accolade.

[ToraToraTora]

Islay: "He has this country fighting each other of who is right and who is wrong." - Not Farage, he merely facilitated the vote and won it, not his fault that - "Racially motivated attacks have increased" - he doesn't represent every neanderthal out there, perhaps the remainers twisting and turning to try and cheat the public out of the result also plays a part here.
"And then you have his silly supporters accusing everyone else of being traitors " - remainers want to pay and collaborate with a demonstrably corrupt un elected power to control our nation. What noun do you think is appropriate for that?
