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.

I think it's a shame that he got elected ,a loony left winger ,i would rather a strong Labour leader to keep the Tories on their toes .
Lets face it he stands no chance of being Prime Minister .

He's made one big mistake he's had a go at the Press , as if they are going to take any notice . Couldn't believe it when he thanked Yvette Cooper after what she said .

I think that as far as containing this illegal immigration ; it might take the formation of private militias to deal with this.....that does mean the funding of powerful speedboats perhaps armed,....raising these funds via charity appeals to stop migration.....because these european banana republics are all but useless in preventing this severe problem from getting worse...

It depends on what he actually stands for in practice.
Is he a man of the people, or a north London loony tunes lefty?
Will he stand up for the average working stiff, or go off on an angst ridden journey worrying about the world?
If he sticks to his natural constituency (the workers) he could do very well.
But I fear events will overtake him, and he will try to please the minorities (all of them).

Berlin, Germany | AFP– Munich is at the limit of its capacity to welcome refugees arriving en masse in Germany, police warned Sunday, a day after 12,200 asylum-seekers reached the city.
“We had a total of 12,200 refugees on Saturday… today we’re expecting several hundreds. Given the numbers from yesterday, it is very clear that we have reached the upper limit of our capacity,” said a police spokesman.
“Our aim today would be to transport as many as possible out of here, to make place for new arrivals,” he said.
Munich has become a key arrivals point for refugees travelling to Germany by train through Hungary and Austria.
Last weekend, about 20,000 migrants arrived at the city’s main railway station.
The president of the Upper Bavaria region, Christoph Hillenbrand said he did not know “how we can cope”, according to the Bild am Sonntag tabloid which headlined its article “Munich at the brink of collapse”.
Bavarian public television BR said the city “came very close to a humanitarian disaster”, although authorities managed to limit the numbers of people sleeping on mattresses on the floor to just a few dozens, rather than the hundreds as earlier feared.
Authorities are mulling whether to open up the Olympiahalle — a stadium used for the 1972 Olympics and which today serves as a concert hall or sports arena — as a temporary shelter for the refugees.

Fred ; europe cannot cope with this influx....it is the migrants decision to come where they are not welcome......., it is terrible that that poor boy should perish from probably a crazy idea from his parents to cross dangerous waters...it is unfortunate.....poor kid...but these immigrants have to be turned back....they don't listen that is their fault...if it results in deaths that is their fault....this is a terrible crisis ...lefties like you always prey on the sympathy side....but that attitude leads to a downfall in standards in countries like ours....people that are authorised , allowed to stay in our country ; that is fine...but we cannot cope with this crazy influx of people trying to depend on western society ; it has to be stopped..... not easy....

The same was said of the Irish, Jews, Poles, Italians, West Indians, Indians and Pakistanis, Ugandans in different periods.
They were assimilated without too much trouble.
If Cameron had been planning for problems which many foresaw, then the problem would have been dealt without the scaremongering and finger pointing which is happening.
He is whining blaming everybody else once again after 5.5 years of his own failings.

a bit of a bold and brave statement fred
it certainly took a good number of years for the west indians to be accepted, and there remains a good deal of animosity against a considerable proportion of indians and pakistanis, and of course the jews still come in for a fair amount of stick, the amount of same rising and falling
