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.

Get that horse ready Jimmy .

Just for JB.

A Maggie Thatcher look-alike!

What I 'd like to know is , how are the amounts of money spent on all these freebie getters accounted for in the Budget . We here about % of unemployed etc , how do we know the figure of all these people . They say they are good for the Economy but if you have to pay them to live how does it work .

Velocity of money.

The more the money circulates around the economy, the more taxes it attracts, ie vat.

This allows the pols to spend more on pet projects and claim everything is on the up an up.


For most people it's an illusion, they are not getting richer, it just seems that way. (the 1 % on the other hand, are doing just fine)

I dare say though that a fair no of these people are sending money back home , which is lost to UK .

Do you think TANKER is related TRUMP in the fact that they both don't mince words .

Remember Steve Wright In The Afternoon on Radio 1 at it's height late 1980's?

TANK is a dead ringer for Mr Angry.

Fred obviously The Old Woman (with dementia) ::0)

Good call Chris bang on !!

I hear Ronnie Woods is going to be getting a new nurse. Oh, and one for the new babies, as well.

:-)

I cant think what she see's in him.....

I suppose he is a bit of a legend ,plus he's not short of a few quid .

I've heard she's really after Mick , just using Ronnie .

She's obviously a lady who prefers 'back scuttling'.

:-)

eh?

I was wondering what he see's in her. lol

DT's remarks are a bit over the top but represents the increased frustration of not beng able to fight these callous murderers that are Isis.....to see innocent people slaughtered in France and the US is terrible !.....and it is difficult to do something about it without penalising the whole muslim community ....obviously he is going to get a heck of a lot of Americans wanting to vote for him and who can blame them ?....he has a solution for everything : that's his voting appeal !....Muslims look different..they worship a different God...Isis won't accept anybody that doesn't think or believe like them...all these things are alienating the muslim community in the US and far right groups will thrive over there in this unsafe atmosphere now...I fear that attacks on mosque worshippers might occur somewhere in the world due to the rising tensions....

The picture above....caviar and hedgehogs !....

Is Corbyn becoming unhinged? I remember Enver Hoxha (pronounced Hoja). He was one of the worst dictators. At the time Albania was run ubdet a version of Chinese communism with the Chinese under control. I used to listen to Radio Tirana in English and all the nonsense they put out.

8 December

Jeremy Corbyn quotes Enver Hoxha at Labour party Christmas party

The Labour leader quoted the Albanian dictator at the party's Christmas bash, who he dubbed "a tough leader".

Jeremy Corbyn stunned attendees at Labour's staff Christmas party by quoting Enver Hoxha, the Albanian dictator who served as chairman of the Democratic Front of Albania and commander-in-chief of the Armed Forces from 1944 until his death in 1985.

Dubbing Hoxha a "tough ruler", Corbyn quoted Hoxha's phrase that "this year will be tougher than last year". Hoxha is believed to have imprisoned, tortured or executed at least 100,000 Albanians during his reign.

The party - thrown for both current staff and veterans of the 2015 election campaign - was stunned by the remarks, which will raise memories of John McDonnell's decision to quote Mao Zedong's Little Red Book in the House of Commons. One attendee described the reaction as "Awkward laughter". Others had to Google the autocrat, who is a relatively-obscure figure in Britain. The row over Mao overshadowed Conservative U-Turns on cuts to tax credits and the social security budget.
