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.

Snaefell Diaobla


Looks like the mixture has been formed and
shaped into a turd and baked well.

Looks like one big gimmick to me.

Dil - what a total load of crap! ..... accounting firms are not hmrc, so it is not they who set the rules .... however, it is certainly the duty of the accounting firms to advise their clients on how to minimise their tax liabilities, and arguably the companies' obligation to their shareholders to maximise profits


I can assure you it is not a load of crap.

It is £3.6m NOT £10m. You shouldn't read the Daily Mirror.



The estimate was 10million and I don't read any papers.

whoops-a-daisy .... UKIP perhaps not so snow white after all - or perhaps they are exactly that!

The UK Independence Party suspended a candidate after she was accused of posting anti-Semitic comments on a conspiracy website, the party confirmed




whoops-a-daisy cynic ... Tories still as racist as back in Maggies day :

22nd April 2013 Mail Online
A Tory councillor was forced to resign last night after suggesting inner-city children from a ‘coloured area’ would not be welcome at a proposed new school in the countryside.
John Cherry, 73, said the youngsters could ‘escape into the forest’ and trigger a ‘sexual volcano’ because they had been ‘plucked from their natural surroundings’.


Fred1new - 27 Apr 2013 09:33 - 24356 of 81564

"experts say Ukip is hurting the Tories most, with some polls suggesting that 18 per cent of Conservative supporters at the last election have switched allegiance.

The majority of the seats being fought are in Conservative strongholds in the English shires -"


If the party faithful are leaving at this rate, what will be the rate in 2015?

Manuel.

Can be a little more brief. You postings are getting to long and repetitive.

Perhaps this is where hils thinks we should move forward to:

The £10m estimate for Thatcher's funeral came exclusively from the left wing press. The government never never gave an estimate at all prior to the funeral. The real cost is £1.6m as the other £2m policing was for police who would have been on duty anyway, so it is just an accounting adjustment. The Guardian was one of the worst culprits suggesting that at £10m it would be the most expensive official funeral. They compare it to £2.75m for Churchill in 1965. Of course the Churchill funeral did not have high security costs. It is just another example of rabble rousing and lying by the Guatdian and the left wing press.

Stan - 27 Apr 2013 11:03 - 24364 of 81564

Perhaps all these self made millionaires who owe all their wealth to Thatcher and keep banging on about how great she was and saved the country could have paid the amount.. whatever it is.

Haystack - 27 Apr 2013 12:02 - 24365 of 81564

The rebate from the EU that Thatcher obtained for the UK has netted us £79 billion so far. It would be more but Blair agreed to reduce the rebate in 2005. This has cost us approx £10 billion to date. The money that Thatcher saved us is worth several funerals.

Fred1new - 27 Apr 2013 13:16 - 24366 of 81564

Skinny,

I have a nice sun tan, but I didn't know Manuel was black.

But he does go on and on and on.

And his "." is worrying.

Hays,

A cost cutting effort could have saved us more by paying for the political stunt out of the private pockets of No 10 and 11. The latter address is now looking more and more like tory party headquarters.

Is it true Murdoch has been found coming in by the back gate and skulking in the in the rose beds once again.

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

Perhaps, if Thatcher had behaved as a European and less of a little Englander when she had the opportunity, she may have been able to advanced the organisation and helped to introduce better European Fiscal policies and prevented, or at least reduced the present chaos.

I just had an image of Maggie Thatcher and Hays in a gun boat decked in buttings crossing the channel, waving bows and arrows and singing "Heil Britannia".







Haystack - 27 Apr 2013 13:32 - 24367 of 81564

I ask not anti EU at all. I have travelled across most of Europe and enjoyed it. I just don't want federalism. I don't want a United States of Europe and certainly not the Euro. I like the principle of a trading group but not fiscal or political unity. I preferred when each country could set its own interest rates and exchange rates. That view is becoming very common now within the EU.

Stan - 27 Apr 2013 13:52 - 24368 of 81564

Have Thatcher's ashes been distributed anywhere near her soul mates of so many years, a certain James Saville or maybe General Pinochet ?

Haystack - 27 Apr 2013 14:59 - 24370 of 81564

Thatcher's ashes will be buried at the Royal Hospital Chelsea.

Fred1new - 27 Apr 2013 16:30 - 24371 of 81564

Manuel,

You are repeating yourself.

I prefer you when you are brief, such as "."

------

Hays,

Your outlook for Europe seems to me to be very parochial.

Your view, and that of the UKIP, BNIP, the looney tory right wing and some others, appears to be similar to living in a village which is preparing to have a village a fete or party, but you are too frightened to go the preparatory meetings, or help to organise it in any way, in case you are expected to give something of yourself, or donate out of your own pocket for its success.

However, you still live in hope that they may benefit to you some of the goodies they will enjoy.

Unfortunately, you may find that they leave you with the scraps that nobody else wants.

The strength of the USA (with all its faults) lies in the fact it is a Federal Republic and with all its diversities, is relatively united as an economic and military force.

The majority of those states would be inconsequential by themselves.
Each state has its own “local organisation governing powers” and “legal individuality” although generally subservient to Constitutional and Federal law.
Similar “organisation” of EU is feasible and will come with or without the UK.

If the UK is going to benefit from, the infrastructures, (roads, ports, railways, fly over, etc.) trade and security and the market place, etc. from the EU then it would be better to be a part of it, rather than bleating from the outside who badly done we feel, or self-aggrandising about what others should do.

If you don’t like the rules or regulations, persuade others from inside the organisation to understand the reasons and need for change, not moaning constantly from outside how nasty the French, Germans and Cypriots are treating us.

The EU has its problems and needs to evolve but it will be there in 30 and 50 years time, in spite of its faults and weaknesses, simply in a global economy because it is necessary.

I am guessing, but I think the next major World War will not be a military one, but an economic one.

=====

But I wish you lot wouldn't keep on leading me astray.

I got to finish the patio.

Clean the BBQ.

Get the pork and bacon ready for tonight.

And iron my frock.
