Debate : Is it okay to throw a milkshake over a politician ? - commentaires Debate : Is it okay to throw a milkshake over a politician ? 2019-05-28T08:29:26Z https://www.thenewfederalist.eu/debate-is-it-okay-to-throw-a-milkshake-over-a-politician#comment23396 2019-05-28T08:29:26Z <p>It is disturbing that Ms Pitt having benefited from tertiary education and extensive travel is not yet sufficiently mature to recognise that throwing anything at someone else is unacceptable. If 90% of the people she has spoken too about this snigger then it is time she broadened her circle and read a little about ‘preference bubbles'.</p> <p>We have better arenas to debate matters. The range of media outlets in the UK covers the gamut of views on the EU, from the rabid Daily Express to the fawning Guardian, take your pick. Most observers (including four independent reviews) believe that the BBC lean towards the EU so it is hardly reasonable to say that contrary views are not readily available.</p> <p>The refusal of so many people to accept your view of the EU does not make them wrong or right, it just means they have a different perspective, different priorities and different answers that are just as valid as your own.</p> <p>When some one talks about ‘attacks on our democracy' while clearly trying to reverse the democratic decision taken in 2016 before that decision can be implemented one has to wonder about who is attacking democracy. (Especially since the site they write for does not permit contrary views to be published.) I doubt Vince Cable, Caroline Lucas or Jonathan Bartley to name but three, would accept that they are not challenging Nigel Farage.</p> <p>The views of Mr Dumitrescu are far more considered and equitable.</p> <p>TO THE EDITOR – please pass this on to Ms Pitt</p>
