  • Paul Marks.

    Contradictory person in his economic stance.

    But then he is a mass of contradictions – for example claiming to want to preserve fields and woods, but also supporting mass immigration (which means they have to be built on), and supporting “Gay Rights” whilst also allying with Islam – which would throw people like himself from tall buildings.

    He also claims to support the rights of women – which also does not fit well with his alliance with Islam.

    The food contradiction goes back a long way with the left – and not just the extreme left such as “Zack”.

    For example, Congressman Carter (the father of President Carter) broke with President Franklin Roosevelt because Congressman Carter could not stand the contradiction between the speeches, full of pretended concern for the poor, and the actions – destroying crops and farm animals to put food prices UP.

    An historian I know (a “Wet” – formally one of the main people in the Tory Reform Group, so politics wildly different to mine) spent a lot of time going through the papers of Franklin Roosevelt and his associates – his conclusion was blunt “Roosevelt was a shit”, everything was a mass of contradictions, self serving actions, and double dealing – deception and general dishonesty.

    The current President of South Korea says he bases his conduct on that of “FDR” – and I believe him.
