For the ill-educated: the OED defines mealy-mouthed as

“To speak indecisively (about); to equivocate, esp. due to timidity or fear.”

Accuse me of many things, but not, I think, speaking indecisively!

TTT "well abacus says that she intends to borrow enough to get us out of debt once and for all!"

In 19 words you have neatly summed-up Labour's economic philosophy every time they've been in Government.

How can we trust a woman who believes 10,000 extra coppers will cost £300,000 (or are the eternally misguided and stupid prepared to accept her explanation that she "misspoke"?)

[Deskdiary]

Mealy-mouthed.

Adjective:

"Avoiding the use of direct and plain language, as from timidity, excessive delicacy or hypocrisy; inclined to mince words; insincere, devious or compromising"

Insincere and devious are correct adjectives and used in the correct context.

[Deskdiary]

No that's wrong, and I apologise - I don't think you are insincere.

[Deskdiary]

BTW, posting a dictionary definition of anything is poor debating.

[Theland]

Good debating? Corbyn is a doorknob minus the door.

[bainbrig]

“BTW, posting a dictionary definition of anything is poor debating.”

Pompous, toi?

"Avoiding the use of direct and plain language, as from timidity, excessive delicacy or hypocrisy; inclined to mince words; insincere, devious or compromising"

Interesting. Your own view, or did you take inspiration from someone else's words?

[bainbrig]

No, what he did was quote dictionary.com’s definition; I still prefer Oxford’s.

[Deskdiary]

Still apt though

[bainbrig]

Who was it who spluttered “BTW, posting a dictionary definition of anything is poor debating”?

[Deskdiary]

Trouble is Brainbrig, pretty much much all of your posts have sneering passive aggressive quality about them, and when you're called out you get the huff. Pretty pathetic really, which brings us nicely and neatly back to the OP.

[bainbrig]

Deskdiary. You write “Trouble is Brainbrig, pretty much much all of your posts have sneering passive aggressive quality about.”

(a) watch it. Playing with user names is frowned upon.

(b) nothing passive about my aggression, pal.

You (like all your little friends here) won’t address my central points re. terrorism, viz that all organizations practice it, even ‘our’ organizations! It is wrong, whoever does it.

Ad hominem attacks are amusing, but don’t address the central issues.

[Deskdiary]

But you're avoiding the central issues.

Whatever.

I'll leave you to your intellectual pretensions and your inability to see Labour's failings.

[ToraToraTora]

thanks for the BA fender!

[ToraToraTora]

BB your credibility died when you said the gravedigger strike never happened me old china, now you are simply a figure of amusement.

[Deskdiary]

^^^quite.

Apparently the 70s never happened.

Delusional.

[bainbrig]

Ad hominem. Credibility?

[Deskdiary]

^^^Irony.

People should look at the history of Israel before condemning HAMAS. Jewish terrorists were murdering lots of people, British included, to promote their cause for the State of Israel. Convenient to forget that, isn't it? As for all the gubbins about Corbyn, it must be true if all the well informed people on here says so.
Look at this.
