Mildly annoying, but old news.<br /><br />"<i>The courts decided that the rules as they stand allowed it</i>"<br /><br />So you lost. Thats life, and you can afford to indulge yourself in petty judicial activities. <br /><br />However I removed this section: <br />"<i>To me, respect for the rule of law is fundamental to a democracy.</i>"<br /><br />Yep, everyone is still with you, in principle...<br /><br />Then we get a brief history lesson. I dont think you fully understood what you wrote;<br /> "<i>Once political parties believe they are above the law it ends with all opposition silenced,</i>"<br />when actually you personally attempted to not just get someone silenced, but to get a legitimate leader of a peaceful and moderate party removed from power by means of unfair financial advantage - i.e. simply because you could.<br /><br />Surely it occurred to you that your "<i>grandparents in Dachau, or the Left in Erdogan’s Turkey rounded up and held uncharged in prison</i>" was not brought about because of an internal party rule, but happened because one individual, like yourself, had the means and opportunity to do something that masses of other people disagreed with, but did anyway?<br /><br />The final twist of the knife surely has to be to yet again invoke the horror of the holocaust. <br />"<i>This decision advantaged Corbyn and his SturmAbteilung(stormtroopers)</i>"<br /><br />And then finally you get your own way, and we are back to good old Blighty in time for the 2016 version of high tea and bluebirds over etc etc.<br />"<i>but on Friday afternoon the Appeal Court handed down a big decision for British democracy</i>”.<br /><br />Its small compensation, but I feel a whole lot better for straightening that out.Fredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12625226495481180179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433144336299288135.post-17269408622049554732016-08-14T13:24:22.132+01:002016-08-14T13:24:22.132+01:00Good piece.

He did not respect the rule of law when the judges said he was wrong, he went to appeal.<br /><br />Respect law?...my arse.

With the added fun that sometimes "the other side" is literally the exact same side you are on.<br /><br />Oh, the next few years are going to be fun. And by fun, I mean terrible for everyone concerned.LiamKavhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01996095233681105682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433144336299288135.post-66037730823803288192016-08-14T12:59:22.734+01:002016-08-14T12:59:22.734+01:00Foster surely refers to Erdogan's *opponents* ...Foster surely refers to Erdogan's *opponents* as the left, which is also not all true.Ednoreply@blogger.com
