Yes or no!?
Can’t you read or are you being self-deprecating?

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 !

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Time for your PJs and cot!

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.

Reading is a skill best left to superior types like you Marty!

(Can you see what I did there Marty! And again, no mention of me!)

That's now the 2nd time

Try and focus Marty. Come on, focus Marty, focus!

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.

People reading that sentence would probably read it as sarcasm (I.e. having a go at me) not self-deprecation.

Keep trying Ringo!

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.

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

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

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.

:lol: :lol: :lol:

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!?

So it's "no"

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

You're having to resort to Egypt!!!!

Democracy is democracy. Why do you need a UK example when there's two perfectly good examples of the public forcing elections in my previous post?

Taken from your link Marty

"The average person’s self-esteem is so low that they are way less frequently surprised that they love someone than they are surprised that someone loves them.

Mokokoma Mokhonoana

From YOUR link Marty.

This was , in your words, "examples of self-deprecating humour. Have a read, you might learn something."

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!?

Wikipedia describes what happened in Egypt as a "revolution"

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Egyptia ... on_of_2011" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;


"Egyptian revolution of 2011"

Now your moving the goalposts AND the country from

"polls and the wider public pressuring the government to force an election" 

To

"polls and the wider public pressuring the government AND REVOLUTION to force an election"

I fabricated your quote so as to fit your new desperate answer!

Where was "revoution" on your list of -

"polls and the wider public pressuring the government to force an election"

:lol: :lol:

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!

:lol: :lol: :lol:

You've just been mugged off turtle.

The Turtle Bunker for you now. You can cry yourself to sleep!

And now your censoring mine!!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

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. :lol:

I ask AGAIN! You say-

"I have answered your question already. Answering it again would be spamming." :lol: :lol:

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  :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

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! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Apart from a revolution! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Does it mean that every time you post, it confirms the deeply held suspicion that your a first class, weapons grade, gold plated, idiot?

Looking at your recent desperate efforts.

YES!
