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.

The only thing that's thick around here JJ is between your ears as we know...among all your other defects that you have.

At present, we don't know who is responsible for Grenfell. Unlikely to be government though. Council maybe.

Now Stan control yourself. You lose the argument when, by reflex, you blame the "tories" for everything. What do you mean by "relevant" help?
The Grenfell Tower disaster was a wake-up call in many respects, most safety wise but also socially. There is no doubt also that it is being used for political points scoring by people advancing an agenda, not justice and an open non political investigation. It is not helped when the judge appointed to head the investigation is told that "you don't look like us".

South Korea Says Four More THAAD Launchers To Be Deployed At US Base - Wed, 6th Sep 2017 10:31
Four more THAAD anti-ballistic missile launchers will be installed this week at a US military base in South Korea, Yonhap news agency reported on Wednesday, citing South Korea's defence ministry.
The deployment would follow a spate of recent North Korean ballistic missile and nuclear tests, and increasingly heated rhetoric between North Korean leader Kim Jong Un and US President Donald Trump.
The US Forces Korea will reportedly position the launchers at a new base in Seongju, some 300 kilometres south of Seoul, on Thursday.
THAAD is an acronym for Terminal High Altitude Area Defence, a US-designed anti-ballistic missile defence system.

You can Riggle all you like IT but in the end it still comes back to typical Right Wing Tory type mismanagement over the years.
If an authority employs "short term accountancy management" it will nearly always come back to haunt them.

I am not the wriggler Stanley. You need to do better than that. I'd prefer to wait for a full and impartial inquiry before passing judgement. With no punches pulled either way.

Typical right wing excuse from you IT, justice delayed is justice denied as Nabarro said.

Nabarro? Fake news Stanley. That quote is attributed to Gladstone and means if legal redress is available it shouldn't be delayed. But we don't want kangaroo courts do we? It is normal for high profile cases to take time in order to take emotion out of the deliberations.

Nothing to do with or without emotion IT as you well know.
Justice delayed is justice denied as usual in order to cover up the culprits, in this particular case the Right Wing people who are really responsible for the Grenville Tower disaster.

Jacob Rees Mogg is a dinosaur. There's no place for idiots like him in modern society.
Conservative MP Jacob Rees-Mogg says he is "completely opposed" to abortion, including in cases of rape or incest.
What's worse is that he believes in fairies. Oh dear!
"I am a Catholic and I take the teachings of the Catholic Church seriously," he said.
"Marriage is a sacrament and the decision of what is a sacrament lies with the Church not with Parliament."
"With same-sex marriage, that is something that people are doing for themselves," he said.
"With abortion, it is something that is done to the unborn child. That is different."
Traditional views
Asked whether his opposition applied in cases of pregnancies resulting from rape or incest, he replied: "I'm afraid so."

Not so. Quite a number on the opposition benches are plankton - passively floating, drifting, or somewhat motile organisms.
