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.

Well Trump is certainly rocking the boat isn't he ?!......he's going to fall out with a heck of lot of people....but it shows that America has had enough of far too many immigrants and troublemakers....I'll be surprised if energy prices don't rocket the way things are going.....you see modern globalisation is not good....you just end up with everything being imported and made at far cheaper prices than what you can produce at home....the third world might like this or to be more precise (certain rich people that have contacts with the third world and just arrange imports).....(those people are no good for industrialised western countries....they are like a plague on modern societies)......I agree with DT about encouraging people to make things in the USA...crazy that American companies outsource production in Latin and Asian countries with countless factories going to waste in the USA because of this....

don't forget that countries like china and india are no longer the sources of cheap labour that they were only a few years ago
you may also surprise yourself by investigating average and minimum wage rates in usa as compared to say uk

What is sad is that the good old Usa/Canada cannot compete in manufacturing terms with China and such....there has to be a tipping balance...China has gone like from the 19th century to the 21st bypassing the 20th in industrialisation....quite incredible...but also their living standards are now far better....it can't carry on because at some stage the old problems of over civilisation if I can call it that will catch up with them.....There is also this problem of companies just switching to cheaper labour in another country at the drop of a hat....this has to be prevented somehow.....nightmare problems for all concerned...

i'm not sure that you are still correct; check what i wrote above though i do not actually know the answer
that said, the world knows though it is not admitted, that many of the chinese factories are quasi gov't owned and their output is not only subsidised but also then sold at below cost .... this latter may be through their own gov't-owned distribution services, or even to legit o'seas companies .... aka dumping

Well whatever.....DT is trying to prevent what is turning into a manufacturing disaster for Uncle Sam....and on top of all this they are being flooded with illegal immigrants.....taking American jobs...put yourself (I mean everbody) in the place of the average American losing his job due to an influx of people from latin america working for half his wage...he can't be happy can he ?...

Surprise, surprise... "cynic" is back after a few days posting like there is no tomorrow at the other side and none here.
I had a look around ADVFN and his name is dish out as "dirt" with the other " Goldfi " no wonder is back here this evening and away from there
note:
1- do not be surprise of what happens during the weekend, it seems one has to be very careful on choosing the friends on these places
2- They say what goes round comes around or you do wrong and once got into the mouse trap, mouse can not swallow cheese ( says chinese proverb )

Judge Ann Donnelly to the rescue:
"Can anyone guarantee this person's safety once he/she arrives in Syria?" Etc, etc, etc."
"No? Hmmm? In that case, the deportation(s) is(are) stayed."

I heard " Freda and the Corbyn Bitches " were the first ones to sign on such a STUPID idea
Asked about anti-Trump petition, PM May's spokesman says UK and US have strong relationship
LONDON, Jan 30 (Reuters) - Britain and the United States have a strong relationship and should continue working together, a spokesman for Prime Minister Theresa May said on Monday when asked about a petition calling for U.S. President Donald Trump's state visit to be cancelled.
Over a million people in Britain have signed the petition in a grassroots backlash against Trump's immigration policies. It says the visit, due to take place later this year, should be scrapped to avoid embarrassing Queen Elizabeth.
"The invitation has been extended and it has been accepted. The UK and the U.S. have a very strong and close relationship and it is right that we continue to work together," the spokesman said.

3rd eye (goldfinger)
...........He reaps what he sows! Contempt! Obviously you don't need to be a clairvoyant to work out that he and I have history. He cannot help himself ego fuelled CR wannabe, sad really. So he sent me an email this was supposed to be a shock! My name is Chris Carson i post on MAM my email is there in black and white I don't feel the need to lie and make up numerous usernames. I am sharing this in good faith knowing full well that i will probably be castigated and leave my self open with emails from every other nutter on here. Do I care NO! But just so you know his latest email to me was addressed to Mrs Carson (well that will work, i don't think so) pointing out that he was genuinly worried about me and that I had a penchant for young boys. How sick is that?

how interesting .... i have BB and a couple of others filtered so never read any of their stuff, but i see the tripe from BB that you post is nothing to do with me anyway
as for jj, i never post before i act, and why should i? ..... can't he make up his own mind?
fyi, i am also now short Dax as well, though dithered at the outset so had to do so at a lower level than hoped

Just liked you have filtered me a dozen times but always answered my post on the past
anyway I am right again why you answer there if you have them filtered
"melfaraj" did not say there was dirt on you?
answer on a post card, and please not more excuses
note - It was a bad idea to try to recruit posters from MAM to your now favourite place with best mate.
I am reaching the conclusion that Maybe after all you like to collect - dirt - YES is what others discharge
