Much of the criticism either shows a lack of understanding, is reductio ad absurdum or is of rare incidents. If overall the way we discussed such issues were less about rabid extremists and more a grown up debate about the issues then the pros and cons of raising and eating meat and types of husbandry could be better understood by all. And we could all make informed decisions not based on he or she who shouts loudest.

Here are pigs

Yes you are correct, they are pigs. Looks a bit crowded in their cosy home, still they should keep warm and not want for company.
Are the rabid extremists only on one side of the argument?

Of course they don't Chris. Look up Fiona Onasanya.

MPs are elected by voters in their constituency; they are not employed by Parliament. They do not have a contract of employment, standardised working hours, or targets for their performance.

They can have the whip removed and not selected to stand again. And they can go the Chiltern Hundreds route and resign.

Yes. So in four years’ time she may lose her job. Whereas an employee with less than two years’ service can be dismissed with notice.

Classic.

One thing I have learnt is I am more against MP's than I have ever been. They are bare faced liars. And can't be trusted.
They always have a devious political angle with the questioning,they are first to get pay rises.
They are all scum in my eyes

Not really. They like to approach humans. And they aren’t averse to checking out how they taste.

I would portray the other side as rather more extremely self interested rather than philosophically extremist

Mapletrees MP is the same as all the others. The only difference is that Mapletree has some belief in their MP. Fck knows why ?

My MP is relatively new, he had big shoes to fill (Francis Maude, who I did not like). Do I trust him, as of now I see no reason not too, that of course may change.
Why do I trust him? He was in favour of remaining in the EU but has openly stated that he will now work to deliver the will of the people. He has also supported his constituents who have opposed building a 12 storey high incinerator and several large housing developments on brown field sites. Not always successfully but refuses to give up the fight.

I see, they are all the same. Just like all employees are the same

I assume you don't bother voting then. I don't know why I bother interviewing new hires either.

Sarah Jones has done well so far.

On the other hand, I really don't like Chris Philp.

Unless you resign as an MP, I just don't think there's any real comparison.

I wonder where the numbers will be at in a months time. If they're quite stable on account of muddling along but being sensible with it, then that will be a relief to many. If numbers creep up, I can't imagine them rowing back to another lockdown anyway tbh.
