Do you care about BCB?

Wanting the best for your children is hardly a Conservative principle Toby. I'd say that's pretty universal.

Thinking you can get the best for your children by stamping down on other children through entrenching inequality of opportunity is a pretty Conservative principle though.

Why does everything always come back to class and politics with you lot? A "do you care about BCB" thread becomes "Conservatives vs Labour". Sheesh.

Fucking libtard.

If we are bandying around aphorisms....

Well then identify the author of these while you're at it:

He who would sacrifice his liberty for security deserves neither, and is quickly rewarded with that which he deserves.

No man's life, liberty or property are secure while Congress is in session.

That government governs best that governs least.

Idealism is for young liberals and old fools.

I am passionate about the NHS, but I also understand that it can't just "remain the same". How that is addressed is something I can hardly begin to piece together in my head, as I have to become dispassionate and understand far more about economics than I currently do (I know nothing about economics.)

Do you think that the NHS has become such a politically weaponised thing that many politicians are now terrified of even discussing changing it (however that might take place), for fear of the backlash that would likely follow?

Surely that is because the change the right envisage is privatization in order that private profit can be made from ill health, and that is so deeply unpopular that they have had to do this by stealth.

Some lefty by the sound of it.
The right are always trying to scare us with bogeymen to control us

No man's life, liberty or property are secure while Congress is in session.

Some American twat from years gone by

That government governs best that governs least.

A Moron

Someone who likes the sound of their own voice




Was I right?

Hmmmm. In a generous mood I might be able to give you some partial marks for your answers. For example, "twat" might be an uncharitable assessment of Mark Twain but who knows, there might be a grain of truth to your description. Therefore I'm willing to give you 15% overall.
