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.

Alf, I have no problem in an "age adjustment" on start of Retirement Pensions for Women or indeed Men but it's the "very short notice" given to Women especially that I think has been outrageous.

Also when one considers that an awful lot of Women have not worked or worked part time so have accrued less credits.

as i wrote before .....
i have a feeling that the notice wasn't actually that short but that it wasn't greatly publicised

Max.

But Haze will probably have the latest Lynton and Dave's spin on it:


There is the connection:

Conservative chiefs investigating the "Tatler Tory" sleaze scandal have received a complaint about a 22-year-old activist who claims she woke up naked in a Tory MP's bed with no memory of the night before.
The incident was raised to Tory HQ by a concerned friend who said the Conservative campaigner is terrified the incident could derail her career.

What do the tories get up to at their parties.

Fred.

Are we supposed to give any credence to that story?

The woman seems to have a memory problem.

ie, why did it take 9 years to come back to her?

This is why I haven't squelched Fred,kept me amused for years. The Labour Party is imploding and still he bangs on about the Conservatives. He's a clever wind up merchant. Every credit he's red till he dies, no embarrassment shown. :0)

she might not recollect how she got into this chap's bed, but there's no indication that she didn't volunteer ....... and why should she not?

Politicians, by their very nature, are con-men....I have no trouble at all believing he talked the pants off her.

That's not a crime as far as I know.

Fred are you there ??? i can't see !!!

hardly a rarity for a young chap to try and talk a young dolly into bed, nor for a young dolly to be equally enthusiastic
claiming "non-recollection" of how one got into that place is also pretty risible

"as i wrote before .....
i have a feeling that the notice wasn't actually that short but that it wasn't greatly publicised"

it was both, so still doesn't alter the fact that it was done on the sly, a number of Women when they realise are very angry about it, but as I say instead of mobilising into an effective pressure group they just except the imposition.. that said it still does not make it right not least because it doesn't help our economy either.

a tenable view i suppose, though not exactly done on the sly

Very tenable and exactly done on the sly.

if you say so

What do you mean by that? -):

well back home for two weeks .
the hunt for the terrorist muslim he is being protected by muslims .
so that confirms that they are all for isil and agree with the terrorist acts
how can you believe any muslim when their community are hiding and protecting a
murdering scum bag . so in my view all muslims agree and want us all dead .

if they are not then why are they protecting a terrorist .
they keep telling the world how close their community is so they no where he is
yet silent .
islam is a evil religion

Egypt is now a no go area for hols and Tunisia and turkey .

so poverty will be terrible for those people .
will never give to charity again to help them .
they have brought it on silent and assist the crimes .
never turn your back to a muslim stat safe ,
the protection of a terrorist by muslims tells you this

and posting about the dead [ corbyn] because that is what he is the labour party under him are unelectable they will be luck to finish second
the man is a dimwit but has he says get into bed with the enemy it worked for me and
abbot and she is a racist remember her views on white mothers I have not

Come on TANK, sort these left whingers out, when's your next holiday again?
