I like Ironsides
He gets a lot of hate on here, but he says what he thinks.
To be honest, some of it offends some people, but some people are offended by facts
You may not know but Ironside was granted a special evening by the mods on the TEF, whereby he could clearly put forward his points of view to questioning by members. This was a rare honour, almost granted previously to Mark Devlin, and granted to Steve Murrall, by the Jedi among the mods. Not suggestive of hatred...more a consideration of opinions. As C.P. Scott said "comment is free but facts are sacred"

That's because, as your name tag suggests, you are also a massive cunt.

On that basis you should have the moniker Levi Lapper Not Very Nice If I'm Honest then. As i see it there is a very left wing union style bias on this site and anyone offering a centre, right or even far right view is rounded upon and derided like a defenceless wounded animal. Interesting how those with centre, centre right or right views do not threaten or abuse like the left do in public. When was the last time a mass of Conservative voters tried to smash up or threaten anything in the parks area, say that screamed out as beloning to socialists or socialist voters? The left love to shout down opinion that does not marry to their doctrine. Free speech was frowned up during the Blair regime, just ask that poor old man that was bundled out the Labour conference or the lady burned in the Paddington rail crash who was trashed by the labour govenment or that lady up t' north who was called a bigot by Brown when he thought he was safe to say what he really thought. This is a forum. If anyone of any political persuasion does not like anyone exercising their own opinions or free speech then they should go elsewhere. Calling someone a cunt hardly makes that person a shining beacon of what this country stands for.

I must say I thought it was a requirement to be one to post on here, so it is rather stating the obvious

There isn't a left wing bias on here at all. In fact I'd say those on the left of centre are in the minority. I'd also look at the manner of much of ironsides comments then think of your abuse allegations again. I have nothing against the bloke and enjoy reading his posts even if I don't agree with them. Throws up debate which is good. Long may it continue.

It is a forum. I see it differently, that is my opinion, yours is yours.

The left get all shouty and protesty. The right just beat the shit out of each other to keep them in line. In a country of over 60m people how can there be only two views?

A full-scale invasion is the only thing that is going to get rid of them. Or at least troops on the ground anyway and so far the "strategy" of operating through limited proxies (a Kurdish force attacked by the Turks and hamstrung by our unwillingness to upset our "allies", the laughably inept and corrupt Iraqi army, Assad's murderers and various rag-bag equally murderous Shia militias) coupled with bombing has achieved jack-shit.

Lefties are always a bit shouty so probably seems there is a bias, there's probably a fairly even split of political persuasions on here

Left wingers are going to be more inclined to shoutiness (or protest) because they are more inclined to see injustice in the world around them.
