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.

hays,

I suggest you check up the word "dementia", as you seem to have forgotten the meaning of the word. If you are quick, you may then be able to write it down on paper and show it to your doctor next time he calls.

GF,

It was a political stunt.

What was the cost of the Falklands to the tax payer then and ongoing.

Pomp and Circumstance, satisfying the Col Blimps and up the Khyber brigade.

GF,

It is probable, that the only thing Hays and IDS hope, is that he paid his bar bill before he did it.

I would imagine that a lot of suicides are preceded by heavy drinking. The one may cause the other.

Imagine you? I doubt it.

Maybe his sickness benefits should have been cut.

...Or yours perhaps.

The point is that the story is meaningless. We have no details of his sickness and whether it was valid. You are making the assumption that he killed himself as a result of lost ng his benefit. I am saying that I have no idea. Individual cases mean very little unless you can see all the evidence. It is easy to see why the raving lefties latch onto such stories. They do so without the evidence, but that's what we expect from them.

I would bet a good many TTs commit suicide as well.

But alcohol may dis-inhibit somebody considering it.

========

Maggie was certainly dis-inhibited before the con party dumped her.

I believe Whisky was her tipple.

I don't care whether the Belgrano was sailing away or even if it was at anchor. We were involved in a war. It was an Argentine asset and was eliminated. I suppose we never sunk German warships that were sailing away.

Hays,

It is easy to be blind to things you don't want to see when it suits your purpose.

Some guards at death camps had that tendency and frequently said the didn't witness any criminal actions.

Some may call it denial.

As I said earlier you are going off your head faster by the day.

Hays,

Check the circumstances of the Belgrano sinking, place and timing.

She should have been tried for war "crimes" as should have Blair and Bush.

Hays,

Maybe, but you seem to me, to have already achieved that state. ie. a disconnect with common reality.

I know the circumstances of the sinking very well and I think it was a sensible thing to do.

As I wrote before.

"Lee Rigby 'attacked like a joint of meat' by Michael Adebolajo and Michael Adebowale, court hears."

Evidently Muslin converts these two. I'm not familiar with the entire contents of the Koran, but I wonder in which pages it states it's okay to try and chop someone's head off with a knife or meat cleaver. Surely a cast iron case for imposing the death penalty, if we had one in this country.

Death Penalty? I wondered when that one would crop up.

Stan, these two will probably get a minimum life sentence of about 30 years. Why should British tax payers fund their stay in prison for that time? Killed one of our soldiers, in broad daylight, in front of witnesses. We have to give them a 'fair trial', isn't that enough?

Some of you "Coners" are so disappointingly predictable.

If any group is predictable then it is the raving lefties. They seem to hate business. They fail to realise that the only source of money in the economy and for government is business. Successful businesses give fuller employment and tax revenues.
