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.

TANKER by us sending those troops and NHS staff to Africa it is hoped we cut the disease off at source.

Just think how many people we will have to employ here if it gets to our shores.

GF I GREE WITH YOU BUT WHY ALWAYS THE UK AND THE USA
the eu is always silent when real action is needed they do not turn round and say we will make the decisions like they do on immigration vat tax bonuses and the likes

Aha! A brilliant flash of inspiration....

The Romanians, etc, come here wanting jobs. Yes?

Let's give them the job of going to West Africa to stop Ebola in its tracks.

Immigration is a problem I agree TANKER but I wouldnt go out and vote UKIP on just that one issue.

More needs to be done in this country for the genuine poor, the sick and disabled and YES pensioners who are genuinely poor.

But you wont get that under UKIP or the Tories.

agree gf but were do you get change I am very well off . but do care about my fellow brothers and sisters in the uk we need a change and the only way is with our votes

as for immigration it is out of control any scum can come here .
why do they not fight for a better life in their own country .
the answer is simple they want a free ticket on the backs of others
who fought for a better life now being destroyed bynthe scum coming here and ripping the heart out of a once great people

Tories vow to slash £100m a week migrant tax credits: New pledge as Cameron says it's time to give EU one last go
Home Secretary Theresa May said treasury is 'looking at' tax credits issue
Credits described as a major 'pull factor' for foreigners to the UK
Britain spends £5billion a year on tax credits to migrants from all over world
David Cameron said it's worth 'one last go' for better relations with

this does not allow for other benefit such as housing benefits and council tax and family allowances .
immigrants cost the uk over 45b a year

cynic will not reply to this or will say it is rubbish he will never except facts

The EU referendum bill is having its second reading in the commons right now. It is on the parliament channel. Kate Hoey, Labour, is speaking against Labour's stance and is in favour of a referendum.

Summary of the European Union (Referendum) Bill 2014-15
A Bill to make provision for the holding of a referendum in the United Kingdom and Gibraltar on the United Kingdom’s membership of the European Union.

When do they kill it?

you carry on VI ..... i know you love wallowing in your own tripe

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

sticky - i'm afraid that throwing barrowloads of dosh, especially NHS, will not actually resolve the inherent problems, and it matters not what hue the gov't of the day
each will inevitably blame the shortcomings of the other, but actually will not solve anything ..... all that happens is that the assorted numbers get shifted around to suit the incumbent

the only way an economy can grow and thus standards of living improve (perceived or actual), is through an overall growth in worldwide trade and similar
for a short time, a given country (say uk) can beat the odds while others (say france or greece) will fare rather badly
raising taxes in a fit of pique and spite against the better off, is no answer, as has been shown very clearly in france and also in other days, both in uk and even usa

cynic response tells all what he is a man with no honour

ExecLine, post 47880 - that is a brilliant idea, just as long as someone is left in the country to clean my car for £5 !!

carry on old chap .... i would squelch you, but it's interesting to see how much page-space you can consume like a pig rooting around in his swamp

The new advert for the Tories!

I love the pig/swamp image.

Ebola screening extended to Manchester and Birmingham airports


I do hope we don't have a flu epidemic in the next 3-4 weeks,

Here's a plug for Christmas, which is about 10 weeks away so I'm told:
