In fact, they got elected under a system specifically designed to prevent them ever becoming the largest party, let alone winning an outright majority. Right now they have a polling lead of 15 points over Labour despite being 6 years in office, so being on the left clearly does not dismay the electorate they way Blair and Brown thought..

Yes, keep up whining that my views have more representation than yours, even when it’s not our focus.

Of course you think your blunt bigotry and threats are funny. Your fat right are not in power.

Yes, keep claiming criminal actions are “alternative” culture. Typical of your excuses for your far right.

Ah, is that a little bit of Newsbot baulking at the idea of alternative culture?

However, I wouldn’t want to eat a Newsbot. I’d come down with something. Indeed, he’s certainly indigestable still alive!

Recommendation is hardly dictation. Though poor little Newsbot can’t accept that Cameron’s in power and he isn’t. He knows it but hates it, so bitches about party lines. (Bitching suspiciously absent when liking the co-ops.)

So come on… join the winning team and enjoy some victory for once! (Tease tease!)

That’s right, you think you can dictate what “you recommend”. Keep chanting Cameron’s mantra vs reality. In reality, you’re the one frothing and attacking on party lines.

And this happens when Newsbot doesn’t remain calm andpoised: Rubbish about ‘palming off violence’, names and such.

And to you Cameron may have been patronising, but you recommend you take advice as it comes.

You demanded that I submit to your totalitarian demands, and debunked yourself, proving that you’re simply a closed-minded bigot.

Aaah, poor little Newsbot. Calm down, as they say, dear. Use your INDOOR voice!

I just demand you make sense. If only you had the wit to debunk.

You mean his patronising, arrogant statement which would have had people warned for harassment in any other context?

Keep on demanding I stop debunking you, and keep making equivalence attacks!
