THE TALK TO YOURSELF THREAD. (NOWT)     

goldfinger - 09 Jun 2005 12:25

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.

Scargill was the cause of the miners' woes. He even refused to take any vote on the strike action.
It was interesting to see that the NUM went to court a couple of weeks ago and won to evicy Scargill from the flat in central London that he claimed was his for life together with a car etc.
Of course it was he that awarded these perks to himself. His only interest was to bring down the government and have a socialist revolution. Even now no one knows where the huge sums of money the russians gave the NUM went.

I will remind you, the gold Brown sold for £2 billion could of been sold for £13billion a few years later. £11 billion small beer really.

There is only one thing we have to thank Brown for and that is his opposition to joining the Euro. Blair was hell bent on joining the Euro and Brown announced that we did not meet the five tests he had set for joining. Brown used the Treasury computer model of the economy to prove his point.

Hays,


It sounds like the present tory cabinet setting up their retirement funds with the Murdock press.

Perhaps, a quiet deal or two with friends of the Hunt and the Fox and bed mates may be informative about their future arrangements for periods of leisure, after the present ball s up is over.


If your mind is not too addled and can recall what I previously wrote about that miners' strike and Scargill inept, misguided approach, as well as timing you would see that I didn't have a high opinion of him.

Also, I have thought that if possible strikes should be avoided, because of the costs to both sides in the argument.


The strike which he had a responsibility for, did have a political entity to it, but so did the wishy washy long awaited speech on Europe.

A speech which has gone down a bomb in Europe and alienated many European Anglophiles, was delivered for his own benefit and his misdirected leadership. It was a speech to sooth the broken party and little to do with the good of the UK or the EU.

Tripe.


I wonder, if Cameron can get us out of NATO, or does Captain Cameron and his companion Baldrick want to re-negotiate that as well.


Happy days.

Dreams.

Consider.


As of Q1 2012 the national debt amounted to £1,278.2 billion, or 86.8% of total GDP. [2] The annual cost of servicing the public debt amounts to around £43bn, or roughly 3% of GDP. This is roughly the same size as the British defence budget.



Interest payments on UK National Debt as percentage of GDP from 1900
Due to the Government's significant budget deficit, which must be financed by borrowing, the national debt is increasing by approximately £121 billion per annum, or around £2.3 billion each week.

Hmmmm the Cons are to blame are they?

Fred1new - 23 Jan 2013 15:29 - 20601 of 81564

They are supposed to be grown up and accept responsibility for their own actions.

I stopped blaming my parents and god for my actions when I was about 10 years old.

There is always shit left around after change of governments, adults clear up the shit and get on with it.

This bunch is just moaning and blaming others from its own lack of direction and ill-thought out policies and u-turns.

Bullshitters!

In 1997 Labour inherited a budget that was actually in balance. After a painful and turbulent decade under the Tories, the public finances had finally been brought under control. But after four years in office Gordon Brown took out the country's credit card and let rip. By the end of 2009-10 our annual deficit had ballooned to £170.8 billion.

1997 at what expense.

Rotten schools, rotten hospitals. rotten infrastructure in general etc. have a shot of ECT.


Fred1new - 23 Jan 2013 15:58 - 20604 of 81564

Do something useful.

Tell me about EMG.

You are twisting facts again. :-))

It depends whether you have your glasses or blinkers on.

Amazing - Cancer victim growing new nose

Scientists are helping a man grow a new nose, according to reports.
Experts at University College London are using the man's bone marrow cells to help him replace the nose he lost to cancer.

Science magazine Focus said Professor Alex Seifalian was assisting the unnamed 53-year-old, whose bone marrow cells were currently growing in the lab on two nose-shaped scaffolds.

"We've got two noses growing, just in case someone drops one," Professor Seifalian said.
