Mayor Of Sheffield Tweet

[Deleted member 875]

He isn't 'our mayor', its an unelected position given to him by the Green Party that wields no power. The guy is a total and utter embarrassment to the city and he most certainly doesn't speak for me, Blade or not.

So how the man who speaks for you nowadays. Tommy Robinson, not heard anything from him for a while?

I see the right wing racist Trump felchers are out in force.

Then Mother Teresa is not ‘our Prime Minister’, not that anyone with an ounce of sanity would want to lay claim to her, anyway.

I suppose, looking for some positives, he appears to be less of a dickhead than that O'Mara chappie.

...or those Johnson, Gove and Smogg chappies?

Bans Trump from my city on my behalf?

Tosser.

Trump? He certainly is. One of the biggest of all time, and dangerous too.

I hereby formally ban him from my city.

Have a like for broadening my lexicon of naughty words.

I am a little unsure whether the 'flannels' bit refers to what posh peope call trousers, the smelly thing in the batchroom that your wife tells you off for using to wash your arse, or people who talk a lot.

I might regret this, but please enlighten us further.

Flannel is a softish material made of cotton or wool and is de rigeur for Cricket trousers. Usually cream or white, flannel is the natural choice of gentlemen. Woe betide anyone who plays cricket in Polyester trousers as the next step surely is ball tampering and match fixing.

We have got a directly elected mayor.
Unfortunately we've got a directly elected mayor who doesn't believe in the city and who thinks we have to be part of One Yorkshire/Greater Leeds.
At least Magid has some actual passion and belief in Sheffield and recognises what the city has given him.

As Brexit demonstrates, there’s a crisis in this country because people have, understandably, lost faith in politicians and the political process. From that perspective, Jarvis is part of the problem. Majid is part of the solution.

I hereby formally ban you from Bramall Lane - my ground!

DO NOT let me catch you anywhere near there on match days, otherwise I'll have no other recourse than to organise an impromptu demonstration against you and all you stand for, which may involve placards displaying 'witty' slogans of displeasure and puerile chanting. Also may be included but not limited to - the ringing of bells, the lighting of candles, the sounding of claxons, the wearing of another culture's stereotypic headgear and the stamping of petulant feet.

Don't say that you haven't been warned!

The underlying crisis across the north of England, and the cause of political disenchantment, is poor economic performance. As the report just published by Sheffield Hallam Uni demonstrates, Sheffield's problem specifically is poor levels of private sector job creation compared with the national average. Tell me, do you see having a Green 'mayor' gobbing off randomly on subjects about which he knows nothing helping or hindering the task of attracting private sector investment to the city?

You missed ham-fisted playing of samba drums. As a drummer, the inability of the average leftist to play a competent clave rhythm really gets on my tits.

I'm afraid flannel left the cricket grounds of England 20+ years ago, Eddie. Your link between its demise and the rise of shenanigans in the game may well have merit.

Whilst Trump is indeed a lady's front-bottom, this is right up with the fatuity of a previous set of munchkins declaring the city a 'nuclear free zone' - as if that would have made any difference to the Soviets' SS20s.

I always wondered how that was going to work. Some sort of magic missile that read signs?

Quire entertaining watching the Husband follow her around everywhere like a Lap Dog. Does he have a job, or did he have to give up being Where's Wally when someone nicked his hat.

The Labour Party has sabotaged the reputation of the city and made it an international joke thanks to its PFI contract with Amy, enforced at huge expense to council taxpayers by the goons of SYP, regardless of infringing people's right to protest peacefully.
As the Green mayor is totally opposed to those policies, I think he and his party are a big improvement.

I almost forgot to ask: what do you think the hard Brexit being pursued by the Conservative government, in which the Labour Party leadership has colluded, will do to attract investment to Sheffield, or anywhere else?

Unlike those Wednesdayites who were elected? Betts, Blunkett, Hattersley and Ashton. What a fucking shower!

Is the colour green the problem for some? Or.....

Brexit raises the stakes still further as regards Sheffield's credibility as a place to invest in. I'm sympathetic on the street trees issue, but the bottom line is that Sheffield can't afford to be represented by a single issue maverick at such a challenging time.

I thought we'd established that Magid's role is purely ceremonial?
The man you want to be gobbing off about attracting private sector investment to the city is Dan Jarvis (or even better - Chris Grayling!)

 

[TTMeysh]

It may be ceremonial but how he chooses to use his platform still impacts on Sheffield's image in the wider world. And saying Trump isn't welcome to come to a city he's probably never heard of makes both him and us look a bit small-time.

More to the point, it is just silly as he can't stop him.

Only the Home Secretary has the power to stop someone entering the country and Trump could have popped in last month on his way to his golf course. Magid's protestations would have no legal effect, so he would have to get together a rent-a-mob of soap dodgers to do some scary chanting and chuck the obligatory eggs.

Tut tut you forgot to mention nazi and also cabal. Felchers is good but its not right.

Sadly you haven’t won today’s edition of forum bullshit bingo but we enjoyed having you on the show.

We did get a gammon earlier though so that's a plus.

I'm afraid he is an embarrassment and all the virtue signalling is not going to change that. The only people making this a Racial matter thing are you. I dont carewhere someone comes from or what religion or colour just dont shame my city.

He is bloody brilliant.

He is enthusiastic about the city, he is forward thinking, he is out and about in the city mixing with different communities and people bringing happiness and positivity. He is well spoken, well educated and as far away from the stuffy dinosaur image of local councillors as you can imagine.

Above all else, he is a really nice bloke.

Do not understand how or why people would be ashamed or embarrassed by him - and still yet to hear a decent argument from those that are.

Magid. You can do magic!

Ok, I'll ask you cos Finchley certainly can't answer.
Just why is he shaming the city?
Shaming, a bloody strong word!
