Your five top policies (if you were granted then)

Which is irrelevant to my point. As you keep on dodging on this question I'll give you one last chance to show why I'm wrong.

It seems to me like your reflexive 'dig' at me was just to score good boy points for any women on the forum to show how enlightened you are without knowing why. Good luck with that.

Its a fun series of contradictions it must be said.
One would contend that the fact drugs are illegal is the only bit that damages society (bar the odd mental breakdown)

I agree with you on that point. Not your others

+1 for conceding on that

Meh you can disagree with me on state secrets I can at least somewhat get your position but do look at that Epstein stuff. If he did kill himself then I'm Diane Abbot.

I don’t doubt it’s a possibility. But highly unlikely.

Here’s some names of other powerful men who have taken their own lives when everything they worked for has collapsed.

If you get a chance. Listen to some work by Canadian clinical phycologist Jordan Peterson. To become a successful businessman like Epstein, you have to have certain personality traits. Those traits lend themselves to a degree of invincibility when things are going right, but a degree of instability when their worlds are crashing down.

Epstein had everything and had avoided the law. At this point in time, there was no getting out of it. Even if he fought it and won ten court case, his business was doomed.

If he were going to get killed, breaking into a high security prison without getting seen and conjuring murder is a lot harder than killing somebody in a more traditional way. Shooting from a distance or laying an inmate to kill him.

Who knows, threats may have even be made against his family if he didn’t take his own life. That’s been used numerous times in the past.

People often keep looking for an explanation when the most obvious is often discounted.

Even, if you look at high end state sponsored assassinations there’s normally some sort of trail. There’s nothing even like this in Epstein’s case.

Because I'm against equality of opportunity too as I said in an earlier post.

Funnily enough I applied to join the civil service once and they were only hiring BAME people. I think that the government as a monopoly should be meritocratic by law but that businesses as private entities should not be forced to be meritocratic by the government. I think people should have freedom of association- if a company only wishes to hire black people then more power to them and I probably wouldn't want to work there anyway.

As to how I'd feel, well that's life. I don't think the government has the right to intervene just because people's feelings get hurt.

Lol your boss absolutely cannot tell you that they don't like bisexual people lmao 🤣🤣🤣

Can you explain this sorry I don't understand what you're getting at?

i'm pretty sure Jordan Peterson is antisemitic, so take him with at least 2 entire shakers of salt

Why should private entities have that freedom of association? Equality of opportunity is not there to stop people's feelings getting hurt, it's there to let people actually live their life. Would you like to live in a world where every job turned you down because of your religion?

Because I think the state shouldn't stick it's nose in and is intruding too much. The state is becoming more and more soft totalitarian with thousands of laws, regulations etc that get in the way of people trying to live their lives.

That's a nonsense hypothetical statement. If under my view companies are allowed to discriminate there may be companies that don't want to hire straight white Christians I would be fine with that provided it was not coming from the government. As white people are the majority in this country I dont think that is likely to happen.

Don’t worry, we’ve left the EU. Hopefully we’ll see a return to British legal systems away from European legal codex’s

Discrimination and lack of opportunity are exactly the sort of things that "get in the way of people trying to live their lives". I get that you don't like laws and regulations in general, but the Equality Act is there to protect people and help them. This includes you.

Answer the question. You don't care about legalising discrimination because it would not have a major effect on you. For others, though, it would. Put yourself in their shoes, would you like to live in that sort of world?

i'm confused, do they have to be reasonable/likely to pass, or not?

No I don't agree. And as you acknowledge in your second paragraph it doesn't help me nor probably the majority of people. It also could hinder people in other ways - for instance there is an argument that I agree with that disabled people should be able to work for less to make them competitive in the workplace otherwise they will simply not get employed due to 'equality' laws..

I live in that world already. Do you think if the equality act was scrapped then suddenly all of these companies would sack all of these helpless minorities you're so concerned about? Of course not. And if they did they would probably suffer for it through boycotts etc.

That would be a no. Absolutely not.

Extreme right wing hate him as he criticise them. They call him and extreme left winger.

Why don't you agree? Just because it does not help you as much as it would help other people does not mean it doesn't help or protect you in some way.

If you remove that legislation then minorities would very easily suffer from it. Once again, answer the question. Put yourself in their shoes: is that the sort of suffering you would like to experience? If you were the minority, would you be happy live in a world where people discriminated against you and where this discrimination were legal?
