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.

Patience boy.

The tory funeral isn't due May 7th 2015.

Let this government die with any dignity it can muster.

By then more of the cancerous effects of their policies will be more evident to the public.

I hope Cameron doesn't arrange a state funeral for himself at an increasing expense to the public.

(Perhaps, he can ask Murdoch for advice.)

-------

But it is interesting for me, at least, to see Libs slowly recovering due to them separating more and more away from Cameron and Porky Osborne's economic policy.

(Even, Vince is warning them of future problems. Distance getting bigger.)

But with UKIP and Libs dipping into the tory vote, my guess is the next government being formed by Labour, or Labour/Lib coalition.

Place your bets.

Labour FINALLY admits it let in too many immigrants: Speech-bungling Bryant confesses ditching controls on workers caused influx

Labour made a humiliating climbdown over immigration last night after its spokesman finally admitted opening the floodgates to Eastern European migrants was a mistake.

Chris Bryant said it was wrong to ditch controls on Polish and other workers in 2004 – and claimed far more came to Britain ‘than anybody had anticipated’.

The admission came in a speech dismissed as a ‘car crash’ before it was even made as Mr Bryant launched a U-turn on planned attacks on Next and Tesco over their use of foreign workers.

Critics pointed out the stark contrast with comments he made a year before the 2004 influx, when he called dire warnings about unrestricted migration ‘huff and puff’.

In a further blunder, he accused British workers of being ‘physically less mobile’ than other EU nationals in their search for jobs.

It adds up to a disaster for Labour on an issue likely to be critical at the next election, in a summer in which it is widely seen as having lost ground to the Government. Tory MPs condemned Mr Bryant’s ‘short-sighted intervention’, calling him ‘badly confused’.

Tory MP James Clappison, a member of the Home Affairs Select Committee, said: ‘This is breathtaking hypocrisy, because of Labour’s multiple failures in failing to impose transitional controls and the huge increase in the number of work permits made available to workers from outside the EU.

‘Labour hasn’t got a leg to stand on.’

Just had a German friend staying who is developing an old Mill near Frankfurt, into flats and studios. He is bringing Polish workers over to do the building.
He reckons they work hard, use their own initiative, crack any problems and will tolerate difficult conditions until they can improve them for themselves.
Nothing to do with cost apparently.

cynic - 13 Aug 2013 11:03 - 27903 of 81564

is it not slightly strange that there is a deafening silence from the labour party on the above .... surely gromit or the witch or some other from left/middle or other should be standing up and supporting bryant or condemning him - or indeed anything!

TANKER - 13 Aug 2013 11:05 - 27904 of 81564

acer tell him to talk to the irish builders they had polish workers the work was terrible
and the homes are now being knocked down as unsafe to live in .
don't take my word check it out homes not fit to live in poor workmanship .

TANKER - 13 Aug 2013 11:06 - 27905 of 81564

acer . german workers are excellent at all they do I find your statement worthless .
they would not want second class work done I WOULD NOT

cynic - 13 Aug 2013 11:27 - 27906 of 81564

acer - ignore the numpty's post(s) above, as 99% of us here do ..... of course your friend used polish labour BECAUSE they were much cheaper than local .... however, if you get the right polish crew and as i experienced on a development in london, they are indeed first class though certainly not the cheapest in that instance ..... it's worth noting "gastarbeiter" in germany also run into a lot of abuse and worse

TANKER - 13 Aug 2013 11:51 - 27907 of 81564

is Poland a shit hole because of workmanship why are they doing all in their power to move from the dump .
why do they not try to make their country fit to live in
and yesi spoken to loads of polish girls and they do NOT want to go back
that is why they are having babies they do not want to go back to the shithouse

TANKER - 13 Aug 2013 11:56 - 27908 of 81564

hundreds of people end up in hospital ever month .
some die . kitchens are full of germs keep clear of small restaurants run by families
as they tend to not wash their hands.

TANKER - 13 Aug 2013 12:01 - 27910 of 81564

TANKER - 13 Aug 2013 12:03 - 27911 of 81564

That reminds be, it must be time for the Darwin Awards!!!


"Named in honor of Charles Darwin, the father of evolution, the Darwin Awards commemorate those who improve our gene pool by removing themselves from it."

Dirty restaurants are to be shamed into cleaning up their kitchens under a ‘scores on the doors’ hygiene rating system launched today.

All food establishments, from restaurants and pubs to take-aways and supermarkets, will be expected to display a sticker giving a rating of 0 to 5.

A zero will carry an ‘Urgent improvement necessary’ warning on the black and green stickers.

no you're not .... you're just talking absolute rubbish as always, based almost solely on prejudice

genuine fact is that far and away the greatest source of food poisoning comes from the home

Haystack - 13 Aug 2013 12:13 - 27915 of 81564

It is funny, but I have always had the impression that TANKER is an immigrant himself. It would at least explain his poor grasp of the English language.

TANKER - 13 Aug 2013 12:15 - 27916 of 81564

Our waiters don't wipe down the menus between customers...

...or salt and pepper, or bottles of ketchup and mustard. It may come as no surprise to a germaphobe that restaurant kitchens are bacteria paradise. But bugs dwell on tabletop items too. Good Morning America sent a team of scientists to swab the items on the tables of 12 restaurants, including the items mentioned above. They found that menus carried the most germs, with an average count of 185,000 bacteria—nearly 16 times that of the second most germ-infested item, pepper shakers. (Everyone looks at the menu. Not everyone loves pepper.) Next time you're out, place your order. Then wash your hands before you eat.
