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.

Labour INTRODUCED the bedroom tax from private tenants They now complain because the government extended it to all housing.

And Labour have no policies.

Rachel Reeves has the same degree as Cameron (he got a first).

Labour don't want Cameron and Osborne to stand down before the next elections?

Why should they when the pair are playing winning hand for them.

It would be like giving up your best ally because you don't like him.

I say Cameron and Osborne should press on.

======

I suppose, there is always Boris to replace them!

======

In hope, the Hairy one might vote for him

It is possible for the referendum to choose to leave the UK and parliament to vote against it. The referendum is an elaborate opinion poll. The actual dissolution of the union requires a law to be passed.

But I do note that Osborne and Cameron are offering concessions to the peasants and colonies if they don't revolt!

If you were a Scot would you trust this pair or the con party on past experience.

Hayz,

Probably , he was crammed.

Was it his own work or that of a hireling?

Perhaps,, some of the habits of his Bullingdon days and nights have effect him!

If Cameron's able to get rid of the jocks, he deserves a knighthood. Bring on the sheepshaggers next...

Hazy one,

By-the-way is Boris the con party's Berlusconi and are there others ready and waiting to fill his ----?

Stuff the scots/nats don't want you to know, and you wont find it in the mainstream media either (or dumbed down)



Scottish Budget Deficit

The Scottish economy runs at a huge deficit that is only maintainable due to being heavily subsidised by England. The country's total income for 2012-13 was £47.6 billion against expenditure of £65 billion, therefore a net deficit of more than £17 billion (Source: Scotland.gov.uk), therefore taking into account extra oil revenue of £5 billion this puts an Independent Scotland short by £12 billion per year, but this is BEFORE Scotland's share of the national debt of £120 billion and resulting annual interest payments of at least £4 billion are taken into account as well as its banks liabilities resulting in an annual black hole of at least £16 billion per year or 10% of GDP, against 5.8% for the UK.

Why not have better educated people running the country?


There is a difference between better educated and being more intelligent.

As can be seen from yourself and the results of present U-turning bunch of failed PR merchants in the present government.

You can read a book, reproduce much of verbiage, but show little understanding of the real meaning of its content.

Hi Cyners, you are the expert on chemicals/oil etc etc your company dealing in it, but what about link below? I thought liquid could now under new technologies be transported as a mass???. Your thoughts please.

HAYS do us all a favour and get your facts right. Especially the one Reeves V Camoron, do you really want me to prove you wrong???. Have you forgotten Reeves stay at the London School Of Economics or are you just playing dumb.

Cameron yes did get a first class BA and then MA but Reeves got a first MSC at the London School Of Economics rated second only to Harold Wilson in exam results.

some chemicals are liquids and some are powders or whatever

in simplified terms, to carry fairly small quantities of either, they are drummed and then loaded into dry freight containers (the corrugated steel things you'll often see on the back of lorries.
carrying larger quantities of liquids may make drums uneconomic, so the next step up is the tank-container, typically holding 5/6,000 gallons
after that, you get into parcel tankers and the like

world economies are effectively dependent upon chemicals for all sorts of obvious reasons

when economies are weakening, companies will reduce their deliveries (shipments) and stockpiles of chemicals

until a few months ago (3/6), everything was looking pretty chirpy, but the severe unrest in m/e, and clearly to some extent in europe, which in all honesty has not yet come out of the recession (unlike uk) and is now suffering again thanks to russia/ukraine, has brought trade to a shuddering halt

depots bulging with idle containers is the manifestation of this .... hence my original comment

Cameron didn't do an MSc so it is not possible to compare them.

I think you'll find in Cameron's case that, at Oxford, the MA will have been automatically awarded 7 years (21 terms to be precise) after matriculation. He won't have needed to sit further exams.

Seems to devalue the qualification making it trimmings.

Similar to attending the university for 2years and getting a degree without any proof of ability.
