      I wonder which small country in the Middle East could be directly, let alone indirectly, affecting not just the election, but all manner of British fiance, media and politics to suit it's own ends? What a puzzler, huh? And yet, still the nonsense spouted by our wholesome mainstream media about the bad Mr Putin and the bad Russians, whose interference is laughable compared to this same middle east country.

      @@moraymac2922 Yes. Thats what i dont get.. the mass media goes on about Corbyn being an anti-Semite but its clear that it is a way off offloading any responsibility for gratitious violence against Semites by the State. It becomes more pointless as time goes on and more people are aware of the fundamental fraud underlying it. But they will just go ahead anyway with and call it 'the gift that keeps on giving' when all the signs are there that it will end up destroying them. Now you have Yids, in Germany, France and the UK claiming Iran has nuclear weapons again or preparing to build them. I don't think any nulcear bunkers are going to save any of the "Divine" "Powerful" from any of the long-term, consequences. Don't they know it only takes 1 night to wipe them out? Time and time again history has shown it; the Hapsburgs, the Romanovs, the French "Royalty"... and so on.... All people who worship them will be persona non-grata and theyt already know it. They've just taken the initiative. We just need to end it.

    I think drawing an equivalence between what labour have done in in this election and what the conservative have done is probably as misleading as anything the Labour party have done.
    Arguing about the costing of policies is how politics have been done for decades and if the Conservatives want to argue the individual point they can release their own projections for what opening up NHS drugs markets to US pharmaceutical companies will cost (they haven't), Labour suggesting that the NHS might have to pay the same rate for drugs as US firms is at the upper end of estimates for the pricing policies but isn't a lie.

      Suppose you have a small village with a population of 250 people. In 2017 there was 1 murder in the village. In 2018 there were 2 murders. Therefore, there was a 100% increase in murders in the village between 2017 and 2018. This figure of 100% may sound shocking to the layperson, but it's nothing actually shocking and it's most likely an outlier.
      Is it a lie? No. Is it misleading? Absolutely.
      The repercussions for saying something misleading and lying should be the same in my opinion. They're not the same thing, sure, but they have the same effect and deserve the same punishment.

    • @matthewmcneany
      @matthewmcneany 5 лет назад +7

      ​@@MrJason005 Labour aren't deliberately misleading people though. They're offering a worst case scenario for the cost of opening up NHS drug markets. That the FT doesn't agree with that estimate doesn't make it disingenuous, people of good conscience can disagree about predictions for things without either of them lying. Labour looked at how much the drug bill of the NHS would cost in the US and provided that number to the British public, calling that a lie seems overly critical to me, and to conflate it with what the conservative have been doing at national level is just wrong. [1]
      The phrase 'sell off the NHS' is something I don't like but unfortunately necessary due to the nature of political discourse. Political parties need to have reductive summaries and that one is not unreasonable. It's like the conservative saying 'under labour average taxes will rise'. These simplifications are a necessary evil because the vast majority of the population isn't interested in an in-depth analysis of policy. They haven't the time or the inclination.
      [1] just as a point worth mentioning I'm sure that there are politicians of all stripes presenting information that isn't honest in more piecemeal way, people who are generally honest speaking in haste and say things they believe to be true which support their prejudices which aren't and a whole range of other things which should be taken in good faith as part of political discourse - not everything that is untrue is a deliberate lie and that holds true for some things said by people in every political camp - The problem here is the systemic, organised, top down approach we see in the current conservative administration to falsehood which honestly I don't think is present in any of the other parties in the UK. (and in fairness the FT video does make that pretty explicit)
      [2] if you live in a village with a murder rate of .5% you want to get the f*ck out of there mate. That's like Hot Fuzz rates of Murder

    The PM’s kneejerk reaction to the terror attack elicited widespread criticism, notably from the former head of the parole board, Nick Hardwick.
    Hardwick told BBC Radio 4’s Today Programme that suggestions of an “easy solution” to the failings leading up to the terror attack are “fundamentally mistaken”.
    “Budget cuts to prisons and the probation service have made the British public less safe”, Hardwick added.
    Describing his son as “angry, frustrated, selfless and stubborn”, Merritt senior said that “Jack would understand the political timing with visceral clarity”.
    “He [Jack] would be seething at his death, and his life, being used to perpetuate an agenda of hate that he gave his everything fighting against”

      It is true, every mainstream media outlet said Trump will lose as a default, he won by a landslide and it was over 2 hours early as enough States had been counted for the win. The basic propaganda is you are a gun-toating white racist if you vote Republican, they've tried that before though and it worked for Obama, however he failed terribly and destroyed the economy, while having corrupt Joe Biden as his right hand man (can barely put a sentence together he's so dementia...) so it won't work again for a while. All we need are intervals to recover from Obama's and Clinton's and America is on top again.

      In an ideal world we would expect people to have common sense but they want power over information. And will use outrage to convince people to give it to them.

      @2cakesken RUclips channels have no control over what adds are shown on their videos. Watch LGBT+ activists channels and you will see adverts for anti gay hate groups. Watch videos from the Royal Institution about climate change and you will see adds by climate change denying conspiracy theorists. Watch videos reporting on misinformation in our election and you will see completely fake political propaganda. Thats the whole problem they are talking about.

    All this kind of stuff is old news, for generations most parties for most places in the world have done this stuff to each other since politics has been around, it's just that maybe it's become easier to fool people with the modern tech we have today, they just did things in a different method than online stuff . it's like all news, you watch, listen or read take it in BUT you then MUST read between the lines and accept that not all of what you are told is all true. As the saying goes" you've got to keep your wits about you" . meaning be aware and trust your instincts, as not everything is exactly as it seems.😒

    Labour leader jc a decent kind inspiring man plus good Labour leader and I'm glad that in December 7th 2019 I woke up ,saw with my one eye sight,listened to all this Labour leader stands for,59yrs and Labour always believed in equality .This Labour leader can change UK for the better, unlike Tories this Labour leader has empathy plus compassion for our suffering as poor people and on sick like me,also poor.that counts in a rich western country like UK where were seen how unequal Tories can be when it us ,the poor and sick and homeless in UK.bedroom tax Tory,sanctions Tory,cuts Tory,9yrs Tory austerity,more food banks in Tory UK,more homeless in Tory UK,Tories lie and Labour does not.labour built our hospital system for all but Tories will sell it off,Tory liars.tory leader like a tape recorder,nothing new and lies.labour will do a lot for UK plus it's people and that includes all unlike Tories who take from poor but give to the rich like before this election.my one eye sight blurry now,tired eye.yet some things have got to be said and that is there are more important issues than Tory crap eu deal which took 3yrs to get plus lies.like lies at start of this Tory referendum and this crap eu deal is not what I voted for.this eu leave voter says bin this as were be better off remain in eu.your Tory crap eu deal would take years after of negotiations.my older son was going to vote Tory but hurray because talking to him means he's not going to vote now.but of course I may get him to vote Labour like me.ill on sick and postal vote never came.corrupt.but I go and vote even if I get 2nd haemorrgh on the way.because I believe in decency ,equality and a kinder UK for all and not just few.i don,t want a liar, jester, Tory pm in government and I don,t want a crap eu deal, I don,t want more years of Tory corruption and fraud and lies.i don,t want more Tory years of Tories taking from poor and cutting taxes for rich , rich Tory supporters of which includes Jews.your all wrong who say horrid things about Labour leader who a decent man and this Tory liar jester leader not decent,not honest and he's a racist plus bad apple .every party has bad apples but Tory party has a leader who a bad apple. Ps it's not nice or decent to say lies and go after the Labour leader's character.but you Tories will do anything to get back in government,like last time that 100 billion dirty dup deal at tax payers exspense.when or if I reach 60yrs next year 2020, I hope Labour gets back in government so Tories cannot kill more from they unequal mean cruel policys

      @@StevioGaming1 wow well done for reading between the lines... I'm suggesting you don't think it's that big a deal because you're not that politically engaged. You're welcome to denounce that but here is my case.
      It is a big deal because, the current government, is engaging in fake news, purposeful misinformation and propaganda that rivals the Weimar Republic. Does that seem democratic to you? Does that seem not that big a deal? Because there is no way in hell it's not the biggest deal. Politicians have always lied yes but never to this extent, in our current system. Whoever controls the information controls the outlook of the country. I suggest you reconsider your suggestion that "it's not that a big a deal" based on evidence and ur esteemed political understanding
