realcockney   10 #529 Posted July 15, 2018 I asked a while back and you never responded; in what way do you think he is divisive?  hes divisive because he has an agenda and we all know what it is? its another way to beat on the majority of the city and the country, the majority who respect tradition, respect the monarchy and respect the voters wishes, he would never have been voted in at a proper election on a mayor, just like screaming lord sutch never stood a chance!!

Top Cats Hat   10 #533 Posted July 15, 2018 it is middle class liberal identity politics, you have to remember that many on the left are now quite comfortably off, own house, decent job, etc, for them doing class politics would be hard to reconcile.  You really do live in a bubble, don't you?

Phanerothyme   12 #535 Posted July 15, 2018 just like screaming lord sutch never stood a chance!!  He was never elected but he was way ahead of his time - his policies, from when he first stood for election aged 23, to his death, included lowering the voting age to 18, the national curriculum, gay marriage, 24 hour licencing laws, commercial radio permits and even pet passports.  Such a shame none of them ever made it into law ...  oh .. wait ...
