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.

Germany and France have similar views to Switzerland. Germans are fed up with Turkish 'guest workers' as they call them.

turkish gastarbeiter in germany have been unwelcome for a great many years
however, they are the only ones who are prepared to do the menial jobs like picking the asparagus when in season

does that ring any bells for uk?

Do the germans provide them with free housing, medical, education, benefits etc?

answer no they have to have answer to why they are in gremany and why they came if they can not support tem selves

spain you will get no help only to leave the country
Poland gives no help to any none polish

ask the local farming community :-)

certainly the gastarbeiter refused to pay tax and nhic, so when the german gov't tried to clamp down on this a year or so back, they simply refused to come in ..... the result was that much of the crop just went to waste
i don't know what happened this year

Manuel.

I apologise for post the C+P about the NHS.

I must admit it came from one of the most left wing portion of the UK press.

"The Times"!

Strange how far an old reactionary as yourself has moved!

8-)

any migrant coming to the uk to clean cars should be sent home
now to some thing I have lived with lazy farmers to lazy to do any work on big farms they just want a gang leader to run it and will only employ immigrantsand we all no why no laws no rules most farmers are a load of lazy people .not the small holders
they could not afford to employ anyone

UKIP IS THE ONLY PARTY THAT SPEAKS THE TRUTH FACT NOT FICTION

IMMIGRATION HAS DESTROYED THE WORKING CLASS SHAME ON LABOUR SCUM MPs saying they are for the working class which they are not

as usual i didn't even bother to read your ramblings and skated straight past

UK government to sell Eurostar stake before general election


Osborne says he is looking for bids by end of month and hopes sale of 40% stake in Channel tunnel train firm raises £300m



Larry Elliott, economics editor


The Guardian, Monday 13 October 2014



Eurostar has carried more than 145 million passengers since its services began in 1994. It made a profit of £18.6m in 2013, of which the Treasury received £7.4m.




George Osborne is to announce on Monday that the government is selling its 40% stake in Eurostar before the election.

The chancellor will say he is looking for bids by the end of the month and is hopeful the privatisation of the Channel tunnel train operator will raise up to £300m.

Do angry Ukip voters threaten Tory future?
by Peter Kellner in Commentary, Front Page and Politics
Mon October 13, 2014 10:51 a.m. BST

David Cameron has six months in which to stop Ukip’s bandwagon. If he fails, the Conservatives risk not only losing next year’s general election but suffering lasting damage. YouGov’s latest Sunday Times survey demonstrates both the opportunities and the dangers that confront the Tories following last week’s by-elections. For the ...

It would just cause more people to visit drop in clinics, A&E and call 999 if there was a charge to visit GP's..

Hi Shortie...STOP ARGUING............................................LOL.

I bet they then charge for these services!!!!!!

I'd be surprised if Cameron even recognised a threat from UKIP considering his approach to Scotland's Independence..

Opinium have topline figures of CON 28%(-4), LAB 35%(+1), LDEM 9%(+2), UKIP 17%(n/c). YouGov have topline figures of CON 32%, LAB 34%, LDEM 9%, UKIP 16%. Lord Ashcroft didn’t put voting intention figures in the headline results but they were asked and are in the tables themselves, results were CON 31%, LAB 34%, LDEM 8%, UKIP 18% – note that the poll was conducted online, whereas Ashcroft’s regular VI polls are done by phone.

i like the old chinese system whereby you paid your doctor only when you were well
there's a certain logic to that!

Good point Shortie. Spot on the money.

Manuel.

You do talk or walk on a lot of ---- so no wonder you skate.

A thought about the SELL OFF OF EUROSTAR and being rule by the EU.

Much of the infrastructure of the railways etc. and other large previously owned UK "companies" are already owned by EU companies..

We won't need to be members of the EU. The country will be run by BLOODY FOREIGNERS.

I suggest we put the Arm forces and the Government (or at least the tory party) out for tender.

Wonder where TAX will be paid?


(Forgot the tory party is already finance from outside the UK.)

==============

GF,

Like those figures

Opinium have topline figures of CON 28%(-4), LAB 35%(+1), LDEM 9%(+2), UKIP 17%(n/c).


But the UKIP 18% will make Hays and Manuel dance together with delight.

(Will the coalition last for 6 months. It is obviously not fit for purpose, but I would expect Labour would prefer the Cons to implode further and make the next election easier for themselves.)
