This strategy has been popular since the emergence of the internet where people think roasting or 'destroying' someone makes them appear smarter. Today's politicians *love* ad hominem attacks because they work so well on the average idiot.

      also Max is right about cardboard not being as sustainable as it is often made out to be... while it's true that cardboard degrades much quicker than plastics, when looking at the whole life-cycle assessment, the production of cardboard actually uses much more resources (especially energy & water input) than most plastics. The same is true when it comes to recycling it... so, yeah sorry Laurence but it seems no real thought went into the "sustainability" claim there 😂

      @@Luixxxd1 - I think you're ignoring the context of the statements - Fox is accusing Fosh of misusing his platform, which he's allegedly doing because "you're a narcissistic baby" - attributing the alleged failing on the insult is what makes it an ad hominem.
      Meanwhile, the comments about Fox seeming drunk all the time aren't used to claim Fox is "disqualified", you added that yourself. Like you said, ad hominem is not equal to insult.
      "You're wrong because you're dumb" is an ad hominem, but "you're wrong and you're dumb" is not. Max is not making any further claim based on the statement that Lawrence seems drunk.

This is how things work politically across the UK in general.. With the different papers as well.... So yes, being a good editor is also important as well too. Some info can be known to the constituent, and yet some cannot be so ? So.... I don't really read the papers any more, but I read the reports and the analysis from the universities. Like LSEs reports... those ones are far more accurate, and focused on the balances, and why.. but you have to be a good general all rounder to get what IS going on. I find it so suffering to really live in the UK.. not knowing what is going on.... Really bad.

    The scary thing is that Count Binface seems to be one of the better candidates. Though I am genuinely intrigued as to whether he has any legitimate plans for the miracle chance that he was actually elected

      Making French pastry affordable. Probably making housing affordable too (to the extent that it could be paid for with taxes on mostly vacant properties).

      He announced a suite of 21 policies which "marries fiscal responsibility, social awareness, and not being an anti-vaccine nutjob", including:
      Finish Crossrail,
      Free parking for electric vehicles between Vine Street and the Strand, in reference to where the Free Parking space is located on the British Monopoly board,
      London to join the European Union,
      Renaming London Bridge to "Phoebe Waller-Bridge" and Hammersmith Bridge to "Wayne Bridge".
      All government ministers' pay, including that of the mayors should be tied to that of nurses for the next 100 years.
      Loud snacks to be banned from theatres.
      The use of the speakerphone function on mobile phones to be banned in public. Any offenders caught will be forced to watch the film version of Cats every day for a year.

      @@stvdagger8074 : I did not follow this quite so closely.. but this is intriguing... such is life. So... Count binface, is a famous "meme" type character, cos I have filmed somebody in the Cambridge are who busked inside a bin. And this man, is actually a good reputable musician to a certain level, and he was made famous by somebody who came along and got him onto FB too. That is way way way before this whole "Cambridge Analytica" thing. Ok, so fine... Silicon Roundabout obviously have created SOME influences to how we use and embrace social media in the UK. But his style of "social"... Well.. I have to give it to him, if that is what he proposed. Cos I know that Labour is kind of not strong either. As they use outside media.. and the media sector itself is kind of also blown out of the water though, isn't it ? It has collapsed on and of itself. So.. how does it all work now then ? Count Binface has been quite controlled politically is how I see it. He got his info from FB, as which is what most constituents used.. so we have to START somewhere !!! The various British papers on FB as well.. well.. he basically did literally reflected what people wanted, and not to join an actual "platform outside the UK's remit" is he ????
      If government ministers is tied to nurses.. then it means that we are going to nationalise the states' employees.. and it will take us down the direction of an actual federation though... and not necessarily the various soveign states. And wasn't the entire EU was all about that too ??? Do we become a Republic, or do we remain as a soveign nation. I cannot even bring myself to vote barely !!! Are we swapping money for land?
