    You become one. They always rebel against their parents.

    A layer of bubble wrap will suffice.

    Four little words "move to Saudi Arabia".

    I'm know he's smart enough to not be a lefty, I'm just afraid the promise of free everything for doing nothing will be a temptation!

    Corporal punishment and Major Pain.

    Dont. Let him. That's what college is for. Then you learn it's a load of sh1te and grow out of it.

    Looks like I picked the wrong week to quit sniffing glue

    It's too late.

    Sorry bout that.

    Teach him that we are all equal and point out the genuine problems that this kind of nonsense causes

    Considering your usual post history, this thread doesn't come as much of a surprise. Poor guy is probably desperate to get to uni

    Embrace them and cuddle them no Matter how nuts they are.....

    It's just a phase.

    Rory Stewart used to be in Labour and he could be a future old school Tory Prime Minister. Might be sooner if Boris throws a wobbly and Rory sets up an alternative parliament.

    Endless chasing of short term growth and profit while the planet is at crisis point?
    Should the state intervene to stop the madness now....or ahem, should we all ignore all that fuss while we get on board the globalisation train?

    PS: Bloody poor people and immigrants! (Added that in for you OP :D)

    He'd be a silly boy to turn that down.
    If there's any left over I'll have a bit too.

    If my dad was Gemma O Doherty, I be a left wing socialist.
    You're fûcked, OP.

    Provide him with a "safe space" where he won't be influenced by anyone. Shelter him from all unsavoury opinions and the hard realities of life.



    ....................damn, i think i've just turned him into a lefty!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,372 ✭✭✭✭branie2


    Give him a good talking to


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 724 ✭✭✭InTheShadows


    Bring him to Bradford or Malmo and let him see the fruits of the lefties multicultural dream. Save that just send him to Saudi with a rainbow coloured gay rights t-shirt on and see how he get's on.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 416 ✭✭Tommy Kelly


    Get him put down.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,568 ✭✭✭Chinasea


    Do not worry. Taste of money will turn this.

    I was left, but I ALL right now.

    Hide tiny bits of gammon in his food.

    Ban him from Twitter!

    It just goes in phases,

    left wing loonies will grow old into conservative old farts....just give it time.
