Yeah but at least we forced ourselves out of that dictatorship that is letting us go without a fight. The bastards!

I won't vote Tory because, well, Tories, and Labour are complicit in most of the damage the Tories are inflicting. So I'm left with Lib Dems and Greens (the latter is how I voted last time).

crikies, people talking up the Lib-Dems. an amazing country I live in.

just a few short years ago they ditched policies to get in power with the Tories and suffered at the last general election because of it. oh my, oh my.

Genuinly the Lib Dems hands were tied in the situation they put themselves in, but looking at how the coallition government did and what the full Tory government are doing now, I'd do anything to have the lib dems back at least holding back the tories from carrying out all their bullshit they're doing now.

The lib-dems gave in to get grubby hands on power and suffered at the next election because of it.

The Torries gave me the chance to vote leave and between the 2, the lib-dems will never get my vote.

As a leave voter i suppose this is giving credence to my belief that the BBC is indeed biased.

Pity the remoaners though.

This always comes back around though. Left leaning voters believe the BBC is biased to the right of the spectrum and vice versa. It obviously cannot be both on a general level, thus this is a pretty good indication that the BBC, relatively speaking, does a good job of occupying the middle ground without obviously taking sides the vast majority of the time.

Even if some people think that it does lean slightly in one direction over the other, I can't think of any other news outlet out there that is objectively more neutral.

critism pls

Out of interest, how should any negative consequences of Brexit be reported?

Dude you're literally repeating the same lines over and over. Are you going to tell us again how the Lib Dems suffered at the general election for getting into power with the Conservatives?

The BBC is despised by the hardcore of both the far-left and far-right. It's the most centrist news outlet you'll ever find.

What those MPs (and you) want isn't centrism, it's for it to represent the views of the government more closely. They (and you) want that because they presently agree with the government. But they (and you) would scream bloody murder if they then became a Labour mouthpiece in, I dunno, 2025 when the pendulum swings back the other way.

I personally think there is more worth in a news source which consistently pisses both extremes off than one which flip-flops depending on who is in charge.

The way he posts is near identical to a lot of other people in this thread. If he'd voted remain and hated the Tories would you still have said that? I doubt it.

Glowy was referring to his constant trolling, lack of cited evidence and deliberately antagonistic stance...not his views. A few may post in here like that but the majority, as can been seen in the last few pages, are here to converse, not dip in, be a dick and dip back out.

If anything, you're the one showing bias by defending an account clearly made to troll simply because he shares your viewpoint.

What's antagonist about stating a fact about the remoaners?

They lost, can't get over it. It's time to move on and realise the miss truths perpetrated by the remoaners.

You keep saying that like taking back control should lead to cheaper prices or something. It reminds me a bit of "Our soldiers need vests not an alternative voting system".

A lot of people are angry that the country's economic situation has worsened because of an ideological movement with shaky-at-best foundations -- that's why they are making fun of 'taking back control.'

This is actually a pretty different situation to AV, for what it's worth. The difference is that AV would have clearly had almost no impact on the country's finances, and people voted against it because of the idea it might; whereas Brexit was always going to negatively impact the country's finances, and people voted for it despite that.
