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.

Anyone watching the live feed of Macron giving his victory speech as they adjust his make up straightens his tie and practices his speech. Even Corbyn would have handled that better.

At least the French seem to be sensible and choosing the right candidate for the EU.

Macron's victory may just extend the EU's life long enough for the UK to extricate itself before Euroland implodes

La Pen would have been a great choice , what are you so scared of cynic ?
Obama made a speech endorsing Macron , he's history now why doesn't he just stop interfering ,another Tony Blair type full of his own importance.

HMRC apparently estimate, that around £13bn of UK VAT - about 11% - goes unpaid each year.
The likes of Amazon and eBay could be made responsible for 'getting it in' even though they are not aware sellers using their platforms are avoiding or evading VAT collection.
However, as with all things of a similar nature, eg. preventing litter, getting the homeless off the streets, solving the plastic pollution problem, mending pot-holes and fixing the roads, there also does have to be the political will to really do something about it.

I suppose I'm just like the rest of the Internet shoppers out there. I just use available shopping tools, such as the
'Google Shopper', and search around for the cheapest source for what it is, that I want to buy.

Here's one hot topic, from my local rag, about illegally watching films and movies using Kodi, and how those discovered doing so might find themselves
sitting in jail for up to 10 years:

It won't be long before Macron is up to his knees in farm manure. He has even less chance of taming the vested interests than the pillion rider had. He will have a lot to say about Brexit, Poland and Hungary however. I somehow can't take serious someone who decides to marry his mother. Weird. Before we know it, his popularity will be as low as the already forgotten one who couldn't even run for re-election.

I might be wrong here but if Le Penn had won and migrants decided to miss on France that would have put us no 1 target for them maybe , just a step too far at this time as we still have two years to go .

so Obama proposed to a white man before he proposed to two white women then in desperation he married this woman. that about sums him up
he also did nothing to stop the war in Syria that should tell you is policy on isis
he is far from a descent person . he is also behind all the fake news in the usa

Macron want to renegotiate the Me Fouquet treaty where visitor's passports are checked on the French side. He wants us to do it, meaning they would be here and won't go back.
