Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

fred agree

The picture rings a bell of the labour party, does it not. lol

Double posted, sorry. Its catching lol

Interesting employment figures.
.
Are there figures for actual hours worked in the UK?

Dreams,

With the S---- the present government is creating I would hate to make any decisions for a week out leave alone 2 years out.

==========

Bring on UKippers and the other rabble rousers.

Tanks can be extreme (most of the time), but he also has some very valid points...

Shadow Foreign Secretary Douglas Alexander was on breakfast tv this morning Talk about sitting on the fence, could not count how many times he said to early to say. lol
Never answered a single question put to him, sorry they do not have the answers either.

basically tanker, you talk garbage as usual ..... your argument might have at least some credibility if you could produce figures to show that your chosen ethnic group was categorically the most child-productive, and furthermore, that this ethnic group drained more from the economy than any other.

a racing certainty in a one-horse race that you can produce no such empiric evidence and thus your sweeping statement could and should be swept into the dustbin

=================

now try answering the fairly simple questions i raised, which you have chosen to ignore ..... doesn't the UKIP/BNP party rule book have a glib answer for you to trot out?

I think some Poles get a bad name!

Dreams.

"Douglas Alexander"

With the speed that Cameron and Obstinate are digging holes for the UK, I don't think anybody in their right mind would try to forecast the economic and international value of the UK at the time of the "proposed" re-negotiations in 2015.

======

As far as European renegotiations are concerned by this pair of freaks.

It would be like you going to the market without looking in your purse first, making a purchase and then threatening the vendors when you find that the purse is empty, and ending up having to beg for "tick", when you realising that they are bigger than you and you need them more than they need you.

Europe, may be glad to see the back of the UK.

--------------------------

At least, Alexander recognises there is a problem and that the UK is not as important to the EU, as some think.

(Put your finger in bowl of water and notice the hole it leaves when you take it out.)

I don't buy any of it. Britain once was great and we produced great stuff, now we talk of German quality, German engineering. Why would it affect trade with the Eu if we dropped out? Better we stop pumping billions of £'s into the poorer countries every time one joins.

You don't need anything more than common sense to see we have put a shed load more into Europe than we get out of it. Let them support their poorer nations, we could be a successful country in our own right and start to govern ourselves once again...

Fred - Stick a mop up your arse and wash your brain!

No Fred, you are bending the answer. :-)) We all know there is a problem but Mr A lexander sits on the fence and does not answer a question put to him. Some of the qustions were directed at today, not the future. We are left guessing as like many times with the labour party do they infact have any answers or direction. How can Labour keep being so critical of the Cons when they seem never to tell us what they would do in the position. Alexander to me did not do the Labour party any favours this morning. By all means Labour criticize the Cons but please tell us how you would do things better and above all answer the question put to you by the news reader.

DC - this is the lovely thing about being in opposition; you can be as critical as you like about the incumbent, but can always use the excuse that (say) until you get back into power, you cannot possibly see the sort of mess inherited ..... specific answers are never forthcoming and constructive, useful and properly costed suggestions or alternatives almost as rare

I know what you are saying cynic, you have to question why bother turning up for the interview. I hope they tell us their plans on the run up to future election. I'm all for an honest politician. Going back to the interview this morning Douglas Alexander
only had to say is as of today blah, blah and so on. Don't use the excuse all the time that we do not know what the Cons will leave us to inherit in the future. HONESTY, HONESTY thats all we ask or perhaps to much to ask.

as so often in life, you need to listen to what is NOT said

cynic , those car cleaners would have to clean 17 cars ever day 365 days a year
and then would still not earn enough to pay tax and that is chargeing £ 10 a car
and in a small town i think not .
so they pay no tax no insurance and claim benefits and free health
no benefit to the uk they cost the tax payers money .
6 men cleaning cars .allow over 9k before paying tax
if they charge a £r then double it to 34 cars aday
cynic your post was a lie

so you know this as an absolute fact do you?
what's your maths like, as i reckon 17 x £10.00 x 365 = £62,050?


of course you still haven't answered the questions i raised, but then you are incapable of doing other than ranting from your soapbox and showing yourself to be the total pratt you clearly are.

what about all those asian girls you said bred like rabbits so they could live off the state?
have you abandoned that load of nonsense now?

Yes you come acroos what is not said enough in life.

To much guess work going on, no back up with hard facts.
