THE TALK TO YOURSELF THREAD. (NOWT)     

goldfinger - 09 Jun 2005 12:25

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.

List of over 100 back bench Tories want Camoron out when he loses to Reckless.

What a mess they will be in.

LOL, camoron is going to have to walk hand in hand with Milly to vote on the EU Warrant thingy.

THE HUMILIATION.

Hays - Correct :0)

goldfinger - 02 Nov 2014 20:44 - 48968 of 81564

Fred, what do you think to a Labour/SNP pact???.

Quite clear this lunchtime that Salmond sees no chance with the Torries.

goldfinger - 02 Nov 2014 20:45 - 48969 of 81564

Hays he he he, the man who can see around corners.

Just think in a bit you be able to 'bend a ball like Beckham'.

Meet Richard A. Montoni – The Five Million Dollar Maximus Boss Here To Fleece The UK’s Benefits System
Posted on October 31, 2014 by johnny void | 93 comments


Richard A. Montoni – the boss of US firm Maximus who will soon be carrying out the despised assessments for sickness and disability benefits – received a salary and compensation package worth over a staggering five million dollars in 2013.

Maximus specialise in outsourced government contracts. They already run Iain Duncan Smith’s disastrous Work Programme in some parts of the UK, along with a new scheme to harass people on sick leave by declaring them fit to return to work on the back of a short phone call. As well as operating in the US, Canada and Australia, Maximus also have a welfare-to-work contract with the Saudi Arabian government – where women are segregated in the workplace and forbidden from carrying out many jobs. From March next year they will take over from Atos running the Work Capability Assessments (WCAs) designed to strip benefits from sick or disabled people. These crude computer based tests have caused horrifying suffering and led to homelessness, ill health and tragically even suicides as people with serious health conditions are found fit for work and left without enough money to eat or keep the heating on.

Montoni is not the only one benefiting from a huge salary at the expense of tax payers around the world. Maximus have been criticised in the US after it was revealed their top excecutives received compensation packages of $41,808,585 between 2008 and 2012. According to Forbes, Montoni himself received a salary and share packages worth $5,136,321 in 2013. With that kind of money on the table is it any wonder they have the morals of sewer rats?

Montoni is a hands on kind of boss, recently appearing in a DWP press release congratulating himself at swindling the UK government into handing him millions of pounds of our money. The WCA contract is expected to be worth around half a billion, a chunk of which will end up in his pocket. Whilst the Government this week attempts to stir up hatred towards asylum seekers fleeing war zones, here they are handing a fortune to some American fucking Dallas reject who doesn’t even live in the UK. Hate this smug bastard, because it is the rich who are stealing the world, not the poor.

Fred1new - 02 Nov 2014 21:01 - 48974 of 81564

GF,

Don't be too hard on the Hazyone, he a bit of a lemming and follows the king rat wherever he goes.

Also, the party he says he supports (for the time being) is falling apart around him and the high ups in the party may not want to speak tor the lower echelons like Hazyone.


I would think Alistair Darling is fed up with politics and the stench being created around politics by the dirty tricks brigade and followers in the present Con party

Darling has done far more for Scotland and the UK than the likes of Osborne and Cameron and camp followers.

I wish him a happy retirement!

Ed Miliband is now less popular than Nick Clegg after his approval ratings slumped to an all-time low, a new poll suggests.


Just 18 per cent of voters think Mr Miliband is doing a good job, against 73 per cent who think he is doing badly – an overall rating of minus 55. That is one point worse than Mr Clegg, on minus 54.


The Prime Minister has an overall rating of minus 14. Some 40 per cent of voters think he is doing a good job, against 54 who think he is doing poorly, according to a YouGov poll for the Sunday Times.


Mr Cameron enjoys strong support from his base, with 97 per cent of Tory voters saying Mr Cameron is doing well. By contrast, just 50 per cent of Labour voters think Mr Miliband is doing a good job, with 44 per cent saying he is doing badly.


Some 27 per cent of Ukip supporters say Mr Cameron is doing a good job, but only 2 per cent endorsed Mr Miliband.

Labour have a one-point lead over the Tories, but at 32 per cent it is the joint lowest support recorded since Mr Miliband became the Labour leader in 2010.

Lord Prescott, the former Deputy Prime Minister, this morning said Labour’s campaign strategy is being driven by “the pointy-heads not the lionhearts”.

Mr Miliband’s inner circle has come under frequent attack for being dominated by former academics.

"To be frank, our campaigns have not been very successful. From the 2010 general election to local and European elections and by-elections, it seems strategy is driven by the pointy-heads not the lionhearts," Lord Prescott wrote in his column in the Sunday Mirror.

"The Scottish referendum campaign was only saved by dedicated old-school campaigners like Gordon Brown and Jim Murphy who went out and spoke with passion about Labour's values, achievements and positive case for the future.

"In these last six months we need passionate campaigners to sell our popular policies."
