@ClubberSpang I will happily say the same to you over a pint at my local when it re-opens. This is hardly an anonymous account.

@ClubberSpang I am favour of diversity of opinion, but I have I right not to have to listen to it, nor engage with it. I am not a supporter of Corbyn nor the Democrats, I just don’t like nationalist numpties. I’m real working class, never been to university, but I’m 100% anti-fascist.

@ClubberSpang No, not Lib Dem either. It’s alright not to have a tribal allegiance to any party, nor much faith in the current political system.

@ClubberSpang Well, the US electoral system – especially the electoral college – looks pretty shaky to me, but I am a big fan of parliamentary democracy.

There’s tawdry alchemy of gold-craving, life-extension. There’s spiritual alchemy – purification, achieving higher states. Then there’s landscape alchemy where the hills themselves are crucibles and all standing stones philosophers. – John Keller, Order of Landscape Alchemists

@ClubberSpang The electoral college in the modern age doesn’t deliver on state representation – it comes down to demographics and key states in terms of campaign focus. The EU has always been dominated by the French and Germans – a situation even more unbalanced without British influence.

@ClubberSpang If you are sitting in small town anywhere, you’ve been badly served by governments of every stripe that have allowed corporate power to erode community and economic sustainability.

@ClubberSpang I will stop you there. This is where we started. Trying to defend a craven, nepotistic liar of such low moral character who largely benefited from macro-economic factors outside his control and has consistently pandered to the current of ethno-nationalism, I’m out.

@ClubberSpang And if this was a conversation at a pub, I’d say the same to your face and drink elsewhere. You have your opinion and I’ve the right to not listen to it, nor in any way be associated with it.
