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.

Manuel,

Well the latter remark is b, obvious even from sister of a friend of yours!

Haze,

I thought the right wingers in Kiev look like a group of young tories, or Bullingdon Club "boyos" on a night out.


Were you attempting to smear the large number of "moderate" Ukrainians in the square in Kiev, on the grounds of a minority of supposed "right wingers" who may have been trying to usurp the "apparent" power.

Even, in a democracy the right (even the loony right of the ts.), and left wingers should have a right to take part in any government when or if it is being formed iin such circumstance as seem to be occurring there.

The last thing the majority of "ethnic Ukrainians" need is puppet government of the America and "West", or of the Putin's Russia, nor do they wish to be beholding of either sides.

If the ethnic Crimeanss wish similar, or to attach themselves after a "referendum" to Russia, so be it.

I wish them luck!

They will need it.

I think the West, should give them all the financial help to stabilise their currency etc. and if asked, advice for constitutional and legal changes, which have to take place.

But otherwise remain on the side lines.

fossy - as your sobriquet implies, you're a total arsehole ..... as so often, you come out with a load of total and utter rubbish, for clearly you know no more than the rest of us, so just embroider to suit your own agenda

if your children have left home, they must have done so with a huge sigh of relief, assuming the strong likelihood that you pontificate at home like the red-socialist equivalent of alf garnett that you have pretensions to here

Manuel.

Reading p37300, I would think you could play for the role of Alf Garnett, without need of any rehearsal and make use your own personal script when doing so.

As far as knowing more than the rest, I am well aware of my own limitations and don't make false claims about my knowledge.

Certainly you make many of your own limitations obvious.

Don't hit the bottle to hard, to-night!

8-)

you're keen enough to make false assumptions about everyone else, so what's your problem if the tables are turned? ..... but certainly your sense of self-importance is clear for all to see

i find it truly amazing that you apparently managed to con people to pay for your views, or so you boast, though i can readily imagine them clubbing together to buy you a one-way fare to somewhere very distant and remote

It's not looking good in the Ukraine tonight...that's for sure.....it should be a quiet, prosperous country but having the Russians trying to bully you into submission is quite unacceptable !.....the problem with the Russians is that they just don't know how to behave (a bit like some of our own I might say)....but on a bigger scale.....they just think that the rest of the world are mugs and do just about anything....if the West and the Rest of the world give them a good beating : they will welcome a peace deal at the Kremlin...all smiles ..handshakes...perhaps even a hugbear of a kind....(I would have a knife in their ribs whilst that is going on)....but yes all smiles for the cameras...everybody happy....because that is what they are like (their leaders anyway).....

Are you on drugs rf?

Far from it.....check out the latest news.....there is no difference between Nazi Germany or Stalinist Russia than the present modern one.....unless something is done : their invasions and quest for domination will continue !....and get worse...

Russia is like a cross between the wild west and the Mafia. I have an acquaintance who is the MD of a diamond and gold exploration company. He lives in the UK, but travels extensively in Africa, Russia, Australia, South America etc. He used to deal with Chavez and deals with Putin. The only place that he regards as dangerous is Russia. When he goes there, he has a substantial bodyguard detail with arms and bulletproof cars. The normal rules of business don't apply.

I have an old friend that is an arms dealer. However, he deals with memorabilia and all the guns are fixed to not fire. He is married to a Russian girl and lives in the UK. Some time ago he was in Russia and bought a few items. One of them was a grenade launcher which had been fixed. He went through customs and was stopped. The customs officer asked to open the case. He saw the contents and closed the case. He then said that he thought the suitcase was overweight. My friend asked how much overweight. The customs officer said it was overweight by $100. The money was paid and that was that. The interesting part is that the customs officer couldn't have known the grenade launcher did not work and he let him take it out of the country on a plane. This of course was before 9/11.

PS,

I thought it was Manuel for a moment!

Why did Thatcher defend a P.I.E. member after his conviction for child sex attacks
02 Sunday Mar 2014
Posted by Tom Pride in hopeless naivety

Here’s a conundrum.

Who do you think would be more likely to be telling the truth – former PM Margaret Thatcher or the Daily Mail?

In one of its recent articles attacking Harriet Harman for her links to the Paedophile Information Exchange (PIE), the Daily Mail wrote about a notorious member – a convicted paedophile called Geoffrey Prime.

Here’s the Mail article:

The child sex attacker and Soviet spy who was in the vile group legitimised by Harman and chums

But what the Mail article fails to mention is that Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher defended Prime in the House of Commons just days after his conviction for child abuse (and espionage) and denied he was a member of PIE.

Here’s what she said in reply to a question in Parliament from anti-paedophile campaigner Geoffrey Dickens MP:



Thatcher defends paedophile

Well that’s strange.

Because in its article, the Mail writes that the police found documentation at Prime’s home which showed he was a member of PIE.

But Thatcher clearly states that no such documentation was found.

Which of course, means if Thatcher and the police didn’t know Prime was a member of PIE even after he was convicted of child abuse – how could Harman or anyone else have known?

Unless of course the Mail is suggesting their beloved Margaret Thatcher was lying?

But if Thatcher was lying, why would she be covering up for a paedophile organisation?

What do you think:
