Marty Marty Marty!
Come on now, are you supping 5% or 6% stuff!? You're clearly getting all befuddled. You're either genuinely stupid and cannot see the sentence was clearly an example of self deprecating. Or you're so stupid that you think I actually believe you !




Time for your PJs and cot!
Re: Project fear aka pure political fantasy..
You’re right Ringo. It’s such a good example I’m sure the OED will be on to you asking to use it in their next edition. I’m sure they won’t mind that the sentence doesn’t refer to the ‘self’ at all.RingoMcCartney wrote:![]()

Care to give examples of "polls and the wider public pressuring the government to force an election" In this country. As opposed to in-fighting and resignations or armed insurgency having forced an election.Imploding Turtle wrote:I refer you to the post you quoted.

People reading that sentence would probably read it as sarcasm (I.e. having a go at me) not self-deprecation.RingoMcCartney wrote:Reading is a skill best left to superior types like you Marty!

In this country? No. Because i can't be bothered. But it happened in Egypt fairly recently where the public forced out Mubarak, and then his elected replacement when it turned out he was just as corrupt and lied.RingoMcCartney wrote:Care to give examples of "polls and the wider public pressuring the government to force an election" In this country.

Public protect is democracy in action. If the public protest against this referendum result results in a new referendum then that's democracy too.

You asked if I could read?
"Reading is a skill best left to superior types like you Marty!"
I'm admitting I can't and bigging you up simultaneously.



In one sentence I've provided a second example of self deprecation and proved you wrong for the second time. That to self deprecate you have to mention yourself!
2 birds 1 stone.
Even the stupid can multi task. Apparently!
Oh, there I go again! Self deprecation without actually mentioning myself again!
3 sentences proving you wrong 3 times.!!!
Shelling peas Marty. Just like shelling peas
What's the score Marty? I've done so well over these last few days I've lost count?
Am I in double figures yet!?

You can't find any examples of "polls and the wider public pressuring the government to force an election" in this country!

Previously, you claimed that to self deprecate you have to refer to your self.
Where in the above quote is there any reference to himself!?

I fabricated your quote so as to fit your new desperate answer!Imploding Turtle wrote:You're just going to fabricate quotes now?
Where was "revoution" on your list of -
"polls and the wider public pressuring the government to force an election"


In fact if you were going to using Egypt as a desperate example of "polls and the wider public pressuring the government to force an election"
You should have been more specific.
"polls and the wider public pressuring the government AND REVOLUTION to force an election. Any where in the world. Including the oh so stable middle east"
That would have covered you!



You've just been mugged off turtle.
The Turtle Bunker for you now. You can cry yourself to sleep!

And now your censoring mine!!!!Imploding Turtle wrote:All you needed to say.



I asked you-
"Following a General election if an opinion poll suggests a government is unpopular. There should be another general election.
Yes or no ?"
YOU DON'T ANSWER.

I ask AGAIN! You say-
"I have answered your question already. Answering it again would be spamming."


I ask you to show me!
You reply-
"Ive just been looking for it and it seems like i didn't reply. I typed it out and everything, i don't know why it didn't submit




Anyway, the long and short of it was that in responce to one opinion poll, no. In responce to many polls and the wider public pressuring the government to force an election, absolutely."
I ask for examples of " polls and the wider public pressuring the government to force an election, "In this country. As opposed to in-fighting and resignations or armed insurgency having forced an election."
And you can't!









Apart from a revolution!








IN EGYPT!!!!!!!!!!!




What an idiot

Looking at your recent desperate efforts.
