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.

Some may.

cynic - 05 Feb 2015 14:06 - 56362 of 81564

exactly so, and that is because one or other of the partners (or both) find it repugnant or perverted if you wish to use that word

Max.

you missed this and what the voters think of Cameron,

Cameron's Recent Lies

FIB 1 Labour manifesto backed the sell off of the Royal Mail.

Speaking on April 2, 2014, the PM said the Labour manifesto in the 2010 general election pledged to sell off the Royal Mail.

“It was in his manifesto. It was a commitment of the last government,” he taunted Ed Miliband.

In fact the manifesto said: “The Royal Mail and its staff are taking welcome and needed steps to modernise work practices. For the future, continuing modernisation and investment will be needed by the Royal Mail in the public sector.”

FIB 2 His government would spend more on flood defences.

On February 26, 2014, Mr Cameron claimed at Prime Minister’s questions that spending on flood defences between 2011 and 2015 would be higher than in the previous four years under Labour.

In fact flood defence spending was £2.37billion between 2007 and 2011, according to House of Commons library figures.

Between 2011 and 2015 it will be £2.34billion – a £247million cut in real terms.

FIB 3 All disabled people are exempt from bedroom tax.

In December 2013, at PMs questions, Mr Cameron said: “Obviously, what we have done is to exempt disabled people who need an extra room.”

The bosses of 18 charities subsequently wrote to Mr Cameron to complain. “Far from being exempt or protected, day after day we are seeing the evidence that disabled people and their families are among the hardest hit by this policy.”

The etter was signed by Carers UK, the RNIB, Mencap, Disability Rights UK, Leonard Cheshire Disability, Rethink Mental Illness and others.

FIB 4 NHS spending going up.

In November 2013, Mr Cameron claimed the government was increasing NHS spending. He said: “We rejected Labour. We invested in our NHS. We are proud of our NHS.”

The UK Statistics watchdog said the claims were misleading and should be withdrawn.

In a letter to Health Secretary Jeremy Hunt, the watchdog said Treasury data suggested real-terms health spending was lower in 2011/12 than in 2009/10.

FIB 5 Hospital waiting times are down.

On February 8, 2012, the PM claimed waiting times were down.

But the Department of Health figures at the time showed an increase of 43% in patients who waited more than 18 weeks and a 217% increase in people waiting more than a year for treatment.

FIB 6 Government is increasing university funding.

Mr Cameron said on March 30, 2011, that “because of the system we’re introducing we will actually be spending more overall on universities, that’s right”.

In fact, the Spending Review set out a 40% cut in the overall resource budget for higher education by 2014-15.

FIB 7 We’re spending more on school pupils.

The PM said on March 9, 2011, that “the per-pupil funding that is in place is not going down and is being maintained”.

According to the Institute for Fiscal Studies rising pupil numbers mean that average spending per pupil will fall in real terms by 0.6% per year, or by 2.15% over four years.

FIB 8 We’re not cutting the Winter Fuel Payment.

On September 7, 2011, Mr Cameron claimed the Government was “going ahead with the winter fuel payment set out by the previous Labour government in their Budget”.

In fact, Labour never had the opportunity to set a Budget for 2011/12.

George Osborne’s March 2011 Budget indicated that the winter fuel payment would revert to £200 for the over 60s and £300 for the over 80s in the winter of 2011-12 – a cut of £50 and £100 respectively.

FIB 9 The number of kids in workless homes doubled under Labour.

On January 25, 2012, Cameron spoke of “the real shame… that there are so many millions of children who live in households where nobody works and indeed that number doubled under the previous government”.

In fact, according to the Office for National Statistics, the number of children living in workless households fell by 372,000 between April-June 1997 and April-June 2010.

FIB 10 Child poverty went up under Labour.

The PM said on September 7, 2011, that “in better economic times, under the previous government, child poverty actually went up”.

In fact, according to the latest Department for Work and Pensions figures, Labour lifted 900,000 children out of relative poverty and 2 million children out of absolute poverty between 1998/99 and 2009/10.



Basically many of the voters think the PM Cameron is a liar.

Firms fight back against Labour: Ed Miliband frightens UK business
The last Labour government — in which Miliband and his shadow chancellor, Ed Balls, were key figures — ran up a record deficit of £153bn in 2009-10 as ministers lost control of the public finances.

Fred1new - 05 Feb 2015 23:25 - 56368 of 81564

Dreams.

I am told the majority of UK business leaders wish to stay in the EU.

Cameron pushed by his party rabble is attempting (or posturing for party political reasons) leading the UK out enabled by the party of kippers.

The vociferous tax dodger business leaders, who have probably donate to tory slush funds, of course as pay masters would be expected to support their present crew.

Go on boy.

We will send in the part timers after you, or The Old Contemptibles!

Goldfinger is Old Joe on iii I believe.

Fred1new - 06 Feb 2015 09:42 - 56375 of 81564

Then bring Old Joe back.

Some of us need him.

VICTIM - 06 Feb 2015 09:47 - 56376 of 81564

He doesn't say much , just promotes the odd company . Very different personality on there.

cynic - 06 Feb 2015 09:52 - 56377 of 81564

he might find that a damn sight easier (a) if he sounded remotely contrite if writing to Mike/Ian and (b) realised that he was now an adult and that flying in with boot and fist every time there was a perceived insult wins no points with anyone

for all that, i would very much like to see him back as i have no problem skipping past all the crap, whether political or on share-related threads, and his CHART thread and contributions elsewhere are greatly missed

=============

funny that no one is standing up for DB

however, i would certainly have no problem with seeing him return to the fold, but i'm afraid he is also incapable of keeping a civil tongue in his head, especially if in the same room (ring!) as GF

VICTIM - 06 Feb 2015 10:01 - 56378 of 81564

He's been there a while , I noticed a while back every Company he promoted here was on there , same message a minute later.

cynic - 06 Feb 2015 10:04 - 56379 of 81564

i have no problem with peeps populating boards under different names ...... what's the odds?

Fred1new - 06 Feb 2015 10:11 - 56380 of 81564

Manuel,

Post 56380


Stand in front of a mirror and substitute "I" for "he" in your passage (the one above) and read it.

-=-=-=-=

I have never understood how a person who has not read a post, is able to pronounce the post as crap, and translate for myself "crap" means "disagreeing" reflexly with the possible content, based on a sense of omniscience, or a feeling of superiority not actual logic.

-=-=-=-=

But the demise of both GF and DB is probably due to their obvious personal antipathy
to one another.

A pity they can't have a suspended cold war and communicate through foreign embassies.
