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.

"It's funny how the people who govern us don't set good examples....it will never change"

Nonsense we live in a democracy and if people like you and some others on here (+ others country wide of course) stop voting for the crooks then it will change, afraid you only have yourselves to blame.. glad I'm cheering you up RF -):

A democracy where you musn't rock the boat Stan....anway....lots of people go clubbing in Ibiza....great stuff....how about Calais for a change....

Stan - 26 Jan 2016 13:33 - 67356 of 81564

Nothing to do with criminality, by the way "it" are you Brazilian?

"A democracy where you musn't rock the boat Stan" says who RF?

No, but my wife is. She happens to be a police officer with TVP and a Liverpool supporter. I am an Evertonian and Flamengo supporter so I have to mind my step.
I think criminal behaviour in buggering young boys is up the scale from being a ratbag and not recognising a daughter. Presumably Parkinson had to pay maintenance at the very least.

ExecLine - 26 Jan 2016 14:58 - 67359 of 81564

In Parkinson's obituary in today's Telegraph there is an intimation that he was funding things for his daughter until at least she was 18 yrs old. Nothing is said about anything after that.

Neither is anything said about the level of funding he coughed up for either. The news article I C&Ped back from 2008 merely indicated how she needed additional care which would have cost more than the norm.

There is plenty to read about how ruthlessly-minded he seemed to be towards Sarah Keays and their daughter but virtually nothing out there to illustrate how kind and/or generous he was towards them.

Parkinson was exceptionally financially well off. At one time he also had a big stake in a PR firm.

Most people who knew the guy did seemed to like him and admire him. Legally silencing all the stuff to do with his illegitimate daughter, which is what he did, just doesn't seem to go hand in hand with the nice things somehow.

KATIE HOPKINS: If Britain is prepared to provide an all-inclusive resort service for asylum seekers, the least they can do is wear a bloody wristband

I went on an all-inclusive holiday once. Much to my surprise, it was great.
We knew exactly what we were paying before we left and didn't spend a penny whilst we were away.
And the kids loved it. All they had to do to get a free drink or hot dog in the middle of the day was show their little coloured band – and somehow they felt they were getting away with something.
They were quite proud of their red wristbands and wished life was more like that every day of their little lives.
Well guess what good people of Britain? For some people it is. The Great British Asylum seekers have landed on their feet here in the land of plenty – El Dorado – because all they need to do to get hold of free food and drink throughout the day is show a red band.
Just as with any holiday booking they can even choose between self-catering options, with a supermarket cash card thrown in for free, or full board – served just a short stroll from their accommodation.
All they have to do is show their wristband. And it's theirs for the taking.
At least, that's what was on offer until today?
Now at this point you might think our government had seen sense. And decided never in human history had so much been given to so many by the labour of so few.
But no. That's just how most of us feel struggling to get to work in the dark and the rain. We don't have a voice.

Now these wristbands are to be scrapped and the Labour MP for Central Cardiff is going to petition the government to find out why it was ever allowed in the first place.
Listen, love. The reason we need wristbands is because many of these asylum seekers have no identification of their own. And the reason they have no identification is because they lobbed it over the side of their inflatable when they crossed the Mediterranean from Turkey.
To claim asylum they needed to be Syrian. And to prove this, it was important not to arrive with a passport and paperwork showing you are actually a cabbie from Ankara.
Dignity is not something you deserve but something you are born with and can easily give away. I lost mine on a few, well-documented occasions but have regained some by paying my own way in life, making sure my children try hard at school and cleaning my own toilets.

I'd argue, many asylum seekers gave their dignity away in the rush to get to the land of plenty.
So many of the liberal left, made rich through London property and high salaries, believe the taxpayer can continue to give, providing a limitless resource to be plundered at will.
But for British workers grafting on an average wage, the burden of tax falls heavily on their shoulders.
Someone in my favourite profession – scaffolding – might earn £30K a year and hand over £7,000 of that to the tax man. Giving away nearly a quarter of your income before you pay your mortgage and Sainsbury's bills feels a lot more painful than the indignity of wearing a red wristband or living behind a red door.

Even those bastions of euro-tolerance, Germany, Switzerland and Denmark now take the valuables of asylum seekers and migrants in order to help fund their costs of living.
They are clear that your own resources must be exhausted before the state provides support.
The federal government's integration minister said it also includes family jewellery.
'Even if some prejudices persist – you don't have it any better as an asylum seeker than someone on unemployment benefit.'
It strikes me, there is not just an increasing divide between asylum seekers and native Brits, but a yawning gulf between politicians and workers paying to keep them in a job.
There is no dignity in taking from others. There should only be gratitude. However, there is dignity in working hard and providing for your family.
And before some droopy left-winger argues asylum seekers are not allowed to get a job here in the UK, I will remind them there is exceptional dignity in defending your own country, something which seems to have passed most of these able young men by.

"A democracy where you musn't rock the boat Stan" says who RF?

Answer

Jean-Claude Junker said early in 2015: “There can be no democratic choice against European Treaties.”

That's who Stan.

ExecLine - 26 Jan 2016 16:40 - 67362 of 81564

Good on you, Katie H.

jimmy b - 26 Jan 2016 16:46 - 67363 of 81564

It's ok we are very near to voting out of the EU , just about everyone i talk to from all walks of life have had enough .

First we will have to endure the bombardment of stay in material from Cameron and many establishments who have their own interests at heart.

Farage will be very important in the coming months along with Euro sceptics from all parties ..

2517GEORGE - 26 Jan 2016 16:51 - 67364 of 81564

We will then be asked to vote again jb, and perhaps again after that.

Calm down George RF was jumping between topics I was referring to his BBC thread and not any other and I stand by that.

A Brazilian Wife "it"? bet she's good at womens football then -):

"I think criminal behaviour in buggering young boys is up the scale from being a ratbag and not recognising a daughter. Presumably Parkinson had to pay maintenance at the very least."

And who makes the laws? party Politicians from the 2/3 largest right wing parties (when in government) ..thats the problem about saying that only laws are totally unacceptable for a public servant to commit and if there not then well "it's alright then" which seems to be the line.

I would suggest the 2 examples given are both clearly wrong in most reasonable peoples eyes weather they are laws or not.

aldwickk - 27 Jan 2016 09:33 - 67370 of 81564

jimmy b

Its out of control , the UK should have complete lock down on any entering the UK and deporting those who abuse our laws. And have complete background check's on those coming here, and a points system that UKIP has asked for.

required field - 27 Jan 2016 09:49 - 67371 of 81564

The bigger picture is that this illegal immigrant shambles is going to make people vote for leaving the EU.....and who can blame them....something has to be done...I reckon that people are employing these migrants in the catering business...on farms ...etc..and paying them nothing...so there is some unpunished dodgy people trafficking going on !..

2517GEORGE - 27 Jan 2016 09:58 - 67372 of 81564

Sorry for the tardy reply jimmy b, your post 67366----It's what the EU does if the vote is not to their liking.

2517GEORGE - 27 Jan 2016 10:01 - 67373 of 81564

A piece from Moneyweek's Capital & Conflict

Former Polish deputy minister Leszek Balcerowicz made it clear that ‘Brexit’ would trigger a punishing response by the EU. Britain would be made an example of to prevent ‘Brexit’ from giving any other countries ideas. The former deputy minister said:

We should not encourage other populist forces campaigning on exit such as National Front in France or Podemos in Spain. This is a very important consideration. This is in the interests of Europe that we do not encourage other EU countries to leave. The common interest of remaining members is to deter other exits. This should have an impact on the terms Britain gets.
