"I'd prefer it if everyone went back into the office full time and only worked from home say 1 day a week at most  "
Oof god no 
We should all be working much, much less. A huge amount of jobs are absolutely pointless. We're working ourselves to extinction.
I'll keep it light next time  |

"I'd prefer it if everyone went back into the office full time and only worked from home say 1 day a week at most
Oh noooo! flip it for me "
Yeah, that seems to be the consensus. I guess I just prefer that clean break from work and home life  |

I’m with you - work life is so much poorer when we’re not working together (although I understand childcare issues, etc).
However, I often wonder what the majority of people, for whom it’s impossible to work from home, think of this debate. |

I agree, getting people back to their offices would be a big boost for High Street Shops too.

Trans people or people with gender identity issues are incapable of having a logical debate without resorting to claims of discrimination or prejudice.
Trans people should start their own sporting events.
Transitioning and the surgery/medication/counselling should be treated like IVF/cosmetic surgery and not handed out free on the NHS.
Means based testing should be applied to would be parents. Can't afford to provide for a child ..can't have one, sorry.
NASA didn't land on the moon.

"Formula 1 is the most tedious and pointless sport known to humankind, closely followed by horse racing."
Sorry, but that is not unpopular with me.
What gets me about motor racing is the crap about how it helps improve consumer car design. I used to have cars you could get an 8 x 4 in the back of. Not any more.
I suppose horse racing improves the design of trekking ponies? |

Horse racing is entirely an excuse for betting these days, although I suppose once it could’ve been a see to improve the skills of riders, when horses were the primary means of long distance transport. |

"pineapple absolutely belongs on pizza  Px 
I’d caveat that: fresh pineapple belongs on pizza, wet slices of tinned pineapple belong nowhere near any kind of food."
Tinned pineapple is good for cleaning aluminium pots and pans. |

People who label themselves with the "I speak my mind" and "love me or hate me" etc. tags are just socially inept and lack the tact to handle proper conversations with people of different personalities and opinions to theirs. |

"If a bloke said pineapple belonged on pizza 43 other blokes wouldn't have agreed.
It does though."
No. The fact that all the beautiful people like that abomination is depressing, but doesn't make it true.
(One of) my own unpopular opinion(s) is that there is no way for capitalism to save the planet: we can't consume our way to 2C or below. |

You asked for unpopular.
I remember the day when people could say what the hell they wanted
Without been canncelled
It was called freedom of speech.
If you had an alternative point of view you were free to voice that . |

People who cry about freedom of speech - why don’t you cry about freedom of action?
We have laws restricting what we can and can’t do. You can’t just do what you want. |

Agree. People think freedom of speech means freedom from criticism for what they say. |

No matter how progressive and diverse society is, prejudice and discrimination will always exists. It just shape shifts with populist views and crowd dynamics. |

As I drove past patiently past four different road works along a ten mile stretch of road yesterday seeing no activity whatsoever other than traffic lights. My unpopular opinion is British road workers are lazy and we can’t undertake infrastructure projects in this country as good and as efficiently as the continent. |

The unpopular opinion would have been to say you liked road works |

That would be unpopular with me. I hate the bloody things. They don’t ever seem to be much going on. |

"Bring back caning and corporal punishment
Lol. Oh the good old days
And perhaps a spell in the army
Would do them some good "
This is a brilliant pastiche of a Daily Express reader, but it's become a little too far-fetched and clichéd. Dial it back just a little, would be my advice. Thanks for all the laughs! |

"If you’re over 70, you must re-take your driving test which will be valid for 3 years, then you have to re-take it. "
I don’t think they should do a full retest because most of us under 70 probably wouldn’t pass first time either (the test has changed so much since we all did it), but i do think there should be some sort of check on their sight/mobility/reaction times etc |

"I don’t care what homeless people spend their money on. If having a can of dodgy cider helps get them through their day, good luck to them. "
I agree.
Also buying a homeless person food without asking what they want is patronising and takes away what tiny bit of control they have. |

We don't care either but vary rarely carry cash, so ask what they would like.
We've bought fags, cider etc or food, hot cold drinks....
The last one, we emptied our boot.. which had a doss bag, emergency blanket, day sack, clean socks and a large warm waterproof jacket. Bought him fags, cider, a large kebab and chips and a carrier bag full of cola. |

Yes! Not necessarily the full test but a check in to see if you're still "street legal" |

Our Monarchy.
On the whole, I like them. I think they accept a life of service and they work hard in their patronage of charities. They (usually for the right reasons) keep us on the world stage.
However, I feel they have become irrelevant in modern society. I wonder to myself whether we need them anymore and my current position is that we should abolish the monarchy. Charles could be the one to wind things up and turn out the lights at Buck House. |

I have no time for homeless people.
I work in London and just round the corner is a feeding centre.
For people down on their luck, who are being helped by people giving their time and money, they are rude, ungrateful with a lot of behaviour just down right disgusting and know I don't think this is down to mental health issues, I think some of them are just genuinely nasty people.
I could go on. |
