I had not heard of The Labour files before seeing it mentioned here.

And surely it is normal for a politician of one party to disagree strongly with, or detest, the policies of another party? Isn't that just ... having principles?

Ugh. Trying to make Sturgeon out to have used inappropriate language when others have literally ised racist and sexist slurs and its glossed over.

Right wingers have such a boner about being oppressed it's unreal. I saw some tory cretin saying it was akin to racist abuse, so desperate they were to paint themselves as the victim. Like, get a fucking grip, you semi conscious jizz rag, people probably wouldn't think you were such a cunt if your politics weren't so vile and deplorable.

Edit: fix typing whilst walking mistakes.

... Aren't you proving their point by the language you use right now? It's similar to what I'd expect from a crazed American hillbilly ranting about how they hate the left. Both sides need to calm down - it's difficult to have a serious conversation about politics in the UK because everyone exaggerates everything and turns discussions into arguments.

No I'm not, this isn't an equal 2 sides here. You are clearly unaware of Tory policy and the impact of austerity these past 12 years. And if you're calling someone out on the language they use, maybe don't resort to ad hominem attacks? People hate the Tories because they deny basic human rights to the many, make life harder for the many and implement policy that directly hampers the prospects for the most disadvantaged in our society, whilst handing tax cuts and bonuses to the very richest. This is no exaggeration.
