Baroness Warsi is on point here she has also , spoke out about Islamophobia in british politics/her party in the past
Israel stepping things up.
Gosh no the overwhelming majority of conservatives are tossers I am absolutely certain of that
Andrew RT Davies your leader in the assembly and his comments regarding the female presiding officer of the assembly being a prime example
He's the leader of a political party not some fat oaf down the pub
Yes I thought about it, I give you that; it was worth reflecting upon. But, of course reality soon kicked in and I realised very quickly I was right all along: it's all about Dosh; these Tories will sell their soul and their grannies for it. They're terrified they'll become one of the Hoi Polloi.
The irony of criticising fanatics elsewhere and suggesting they find some peaceful middle ground when you are incapable of such yourself. Thankfully the consequences are nothing like the same here, but the principle is. 'othering' people is a major cause of conflicts. It's not what reasonable people do.
The self restraint was made obvious in those who chose not to take part in it. I thought even you would be capable of seeing that.
Again, daft stereotypes, but you know that really.
The constituency with the most Labour votes in all of the UK is Bristol West, centred on Clifton. Making these kind of stereotypes on wealth is just wrong, and again, you know it really.
As a way of thinking, whatever the scenario, it only produces conflict.
That comment interested me. I lived in Bristol (mainly Bristol West) from 1977-1983: Redlands, Hotwells, Cotham and St Werburghs.
Although there are some posh areas, my memory was that the constituency as a whole was much more mixed than the Tourist Board photos of Clifton suggest. And it is. Most people live in flats. Most rent don't own. A quarter of the population was born outside the UK. There are a lot of students. It is not an area that screams 'love of money and status'. Deprivation is around the UK average. But it does stand out as a hotspot for atheism - so no change there after 45 years!
It's a pretty diverse area, that's true. I know it well, and indeed will be there tonight!
It is comfortably the highest wage area (671 per week) of the four Bristol constituencies though, and it is an interesting snippet of information that when sat in salubrious Clifton you are literally in the middle of the ward that has more Labour voters than any other.
I say that just to challenge a stereotype, as I've never liked them.
Average salary by constituency is quite interesting actually. Doesn't tell the full story obvs, but still.
