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.

With you there CT.

Instead of arsing about trying to please them we should just leave.

Dil,

You have it in your nutshell.

You are right.

Up and at "em.

Sorry, let's run like hell.

That will teach them to be beastly!

But where exactly are you going to, if the UK leaves the EU?

(In name, but nothing else?)

Fred1 - They need us more than we need them, we never entered the party fully and into the Euro, we never entered into Greman dominance, though that wet PM that took the UK in was clueless what he was signing up too. You can thank your luck stars that we kept of GBP otherwise it would have been a much bigger problem to walk away from the bureurocratic mafia - the UK has its own Mafia, and share of goodfathers.

So walk tall, and deal with the reast of the world as well on a fair and free basis, they will come running in due course.

Perhaps, those who say "They need us more than we need them" should consider the effect of a flea bite on the backside of an Elephant.

Sorely missed comes to mind.

Yes Fred1 for all their bluster and threats the UK would be sorely missed by them as you suggest. :-)

It would leave a big sore hole in their income for starters, it would leave a big sore hole in what they are allowed to plunder from the Uk`s waters, rather than ensuring the UK fishermen have the seas to themselves to harvest in it`s own waters.

How many other sore holes would the EU be trying to manage once the Uk leaves, which it will.

Now Boris has done the right thing, it now just needs that dirty back stabing weed Gove to walk down the same path.

I do miss gammon.

Do you?

I would have thought you are a black coffee girl.

Well done Boris now go kick some arse and get the numbers needed to get a proper Brexit leader.

Very good Fred, but I'm more a Bombardino or Vodka Red Bull girl actually. But that's not the type of gammon I was referring to.

:o)

Need a energy drink like Red Bull laced with Vodka I note CNG, unlike any good Scot who would only add more whisky to whisky and keep going.

I think the Trump balloon is a bit petty if I can call it that.....is that thing something to do with Pink Floyd or what ?...(no offense love that group)…..perhaps it's another brick in the Wall !.....hey ! teacher/inflater leave the Kids alone !.....

But later this week.

I guess TM will want to blame Trump for her demise before long but she will not be able to stake it to the lawn at Chequers - being a vicars daughter, she is more likely pass the hat around.

If only!

Waiting for Schumer and McCain to announce the opening of McCarthy Park; the DNA of Joseph used to recreate the creatures of McCarthyism.

Sir Cliff Richard has this morning been awarded £210,000 damages from the BBC for the "general effect" on his life.

The judge said he is entitled to recover further sums for the financial impact on the star, which will be decided at a later date.

Sir Cliff says he isn't able to make much of a comment on this yet, explaining he is still 'emotionally' under shock from the whole situation.

He did seem to come across to me as being 'more sensitive and also more camp than usual' this morning than usual. IMHO, it is this sort of 'slightly camp personality thing' which affects one's assessment, that he is quite possibly a 'closet gay'. 'Closet' in the sense, that he has never seemed to deny or defend on this aspect of his personal life or say anything 'open about it'.

He has made many extremely successful, 'seemingly heterosexual' hit records. One has to wonder, if in doing this his position might just be a bit hypocritical. Hmmm?

I do wonder why the BBC seem to hate Cliff so very much? eg. At one time, the BBC DJ, Chris Evans, even refused to play any of his records on his very popular lengthy morning show.

Cliff does still retain a very youthful appearance even into his old age and he has been famous for it. Surely to goodness, this BBC 'hate thing' isn't merely jealousy about his musical success and looks?

The police raid and BBC collusion in it was completely out of order and I believe it is perfectly reasonable for Cliff to receive substantial damages, not only from the police but also the BBC. Good luck to him for that.

Now you can't knock Sir Cliff Richard's looks or his singing ability and success or his popularity.

Is it possible people think he is a sexual hypocrite? I wonder? Hmmm?

Anyone know anything for certain about Cliff's relationship with the BBC?

Nobody should be named before convicted - the accuser gets away scot free even if they have made false claims, and the victim suffers even if completely innocent.

Just look at those that claimed rape against that young man that suffered because the police failed in their duty to review all the evidence or withheld it just to get a false conviction.

Cliff is entitled to a lot more damages than he has already received, how much work would he have been able to do, let along the long term metal damage done.

The BBC and Police owe him several million, not that will ever compensate him for what they put him through. Good job he at least had some good friends that stuck by him.

What is a "sexual hypocrite" EL? Everyone still has the right to privacy provided no harm is done to others. No ifs, buts, or maybes.
The hypocrisy is for the BBC to complain about press freedom when it has clearly overstepped its reporting mandate, at great expense to the taxpayer, and done harm to an innocent person. The heads involved should be sacked without compensation.
