The Left is as noisy as ever – how about listening for once? – Telegraph
Janet Daley is exactly the sort of blinkered Tory ne’er-speak-well who drags that party’s followers into disrepute whenever she has a chance.
Here, she’s badmouthing (bad-typing?) Labour supporters in the social media. Does she mean VP? It seems she surely does.
Her problem seems to be that she has clearly never actually read a dialogue between left-wing activists and others on the social media.
Every single such encounter This Writer has… enjoyed?… has been carried out with politeness on the part of the left-winger, becoming extreme and then heroic in the face of blinkered repetition of disproved rightist mantras from the other side.
But then, this article can hardly be taken seriously when the image used to illustrate it is of the war memorial that was defaced by (according to eyewitnesses) fifth-columnists working for the police.
Dedicated Left-wing activists have never been much interested in engaging in argument, only in hurling accusations of wickedness. To indulge in debate would simply be consorting with the devil.
So there can be no dialogue between themselves and the evil outside world that so exasperatingly refuses to expunge itself. This is not just pig-headed obstinacy: it is part of the dogma.

Ms Daley comes across as a very confused lady, most of what she says could be applied to either wing of the political body (anybody ever witnessed BNP or National Front attempts to hijack public demonstrations?)
For someone so respected – mainly by other Tories and columnists, I suspect – Janet Daley doesn’t half talk some bobbins*. A nasty, reactionary old git* of the worst kind, often using her religion to justify doing someone or other down yet always without even the most basic of Christian charity. A nasty malicious hypocrite.
Is she too sodding* thick to realise the left, even the centre left, have done nothing but listen for the past twenty years while the party that is meant to represent them slithered off to the right.
The left have been proven correct over time, problem is, nobody else listens.
