But *I'm* not the government!

I can't understand why rap dominates the charts when there are beautiful songs like this around!

We'd be a stronger country if people like you didn't hate their own country.

V2 : YTD Sales : Please read these guidelines before you request sales estimates, it makes my task a lot easier. 1. Be specific - please name the artist and title for each entry you'd like an estimate for. 2. I log sales for all albums that have charted this year, but only update those that have sold enough to reach my 200 position tracking range 3. If an album isn't in the current Top 100, I won't be able to update its sales until Tues. Also, please don't ask about ex-T100 albums too often - once a month at most) 4. Remember to check the thread before requesting estimates - they may already have been answered. Also, no more than half-a-dozen requests at a time, thanks. 5. Please note my figures are combined sales & streams, and since I have no way of separating them, I cannot provide a split. 6. While I am no longer estimating singles sales, I can provide YTD singles positions from C+, and I am still maintaining my sales archive based on published figures (PM me if you want to see it) Thank you.

So, no attempt to address the actual issue - that's something *I* usually get criticized for...

You want it done by an electoral college instead, perhaps? :heehee: Seriously though, if not by them, then who?

At least your rants are consistent. :rolleyes: As always, you neglect to mention that we're still going to be able to trade with the EU, despite Brexit. :mellow:

This is rich - you ask me & Chris not to be triumphalist in victory, and we have indeed been restrained. I in return request that sour grapes like the above be toned down. I you can't do that, then I am afraid the gloves will come off... Regards,

For many Leavers, that in itself is a good enough reason.

I thought I'd been very restrained, actually... :P

I don't believe for a second you'd be making this claim if it was Labour who had an 80 seat majority. :rolleyes:

Can you put a probability figure on your worst case scenario?

What I make of it, is you doing your usual tactic of predicting the worst possible consequences, with little evidence other than your own opinions.

I thought this forum had rules about ad hominem attacks? :mellow:

Since when did you start believing opinion polls - you didn't before the GE... :lol: BTW, can't you try to make one post without the use of hyperbole?

They didn't *get* a majority in 2017 - I thought that was the point?

Yes, remainers who wouldn't have voted for it anyway. That was *why* he didn't have the numbers. :mellow:

Come on, you know better than that. :mellow: The Tories didn't have the numbers to win the necessary vote then - that was hardly their fault. Or so Remainers would like people to believe. :lol:

Making that false analogy is not helpful. :( Or he know that a having Leave win, but the Bill fail by some qualifier, would just stir up more trouble long term - just as the 1979 Scottish Referendum did. :mellow: Surely that's the opposite of what he said? More hyperbole. :mellow: FFS, you're like a dog with a bone. :rolleyes: Anyway, I disagree that no-one cared about the EU until recently. A lot of us *did* care, but until UKIP came along, we literally had no voice! Virtually the whole establishment was united in suppressing debate on the subject, using the same 'racist/uneducated' smears that we have come to know so well. :(

You mean Welsh-speakers, or young Welsh in general? Either way, you can hardly have Brexit for *just* older voters, so the whole issue of age split is moot. BTW, I found an interesting analysis of Brexit in *Scotland* : http://ppiw.org.uk/files/2017/03/Ailsa-Henderson.pdf

But without pressure from UKIP, Tory Leavers would never have been emboldened, or Remainers frightened.

In one word - Money. :rolleyes:

IIRC Paul Weller got pretty peed off when David Cameron said he liked 'Eton Rifles', as 'he totally didn't get what it was really about'. :rolleyes: For me, if a song sounds good, the message, if any, is very much secondary. OTOH, if a song is terrible (e.g. Band Aid) I simply won't buy it, no matter how worthy the cause - I'd rather just drop money in a collection box instead.

Right... the sort of 'coup' done by the ballot box. :rolleyes:
