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.

Re: Post 14011.

"Is Eurostat a government funded body. Because I travel in europe for my job and believe me when I say that this report is crap. Go to Germany and see the standard of living there much higher than the UK. Denmark and Sweden are much more stable and the standard of living people have is very comfortable indeed. So I reckon this is just another government sponsored brain wash campaign... And as usual AOHell are pushing it."

.. Sounds about right.

Stan - hence my "you heard it here" - I wouldn't give the report much credence.

Indeed Skinny, indeed.

stan i spend a lot of my time in oslo we laugh at english std of living then i am in france same thing a joke bussels etc

Aids.

The figures are more or less what would be expected.

Now apply yourself to why.

===========

What worries me, is that if the economy dives even more, and "true" unemployment goes up, how much more "civil" unrest will be generated and what form it will take.

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

Sad to read this about our students:

I do not believe the story above. The NUS has political agendas to push.

ex the simple truth is that progames like the ex factor have blinded the youth of today living in a dream world .

exex sums it up

"The NUS also says students are turning to gambling and taking part in medical experiments to fund their studies." So what's new?

Tanker,

I hope you have left enough room for them.

tanker fred lol
and atvb

over the last 3 years these so called clever teachers and uni people have spoken 3 words tax the bankers .do they not understand it is grredy people like them that is
why the uk is in a mess and still they want there gold plated pensions the gov should go ahead and cut them and if they are not happy go and get a real job in the real world but no one would employ them in the private sector . they need to look in the mirror for the problems facing the uk it is in front of them but to stupid to see them selves

greece its problems of debt getting worse by the hour .
and still the leaders of the eu are clueless .
the germans have said they are not going to pay to bail them out but we could tax the uk to bail them out but not the germans

.

Exec,

Many prostitute their talents ways in different ways.

The problem of much youth of today, is the lack of awareness of long term consequences of their actions. Going for immediate gratification with little satisfaction.

But "morality" has changed, or been perverted rapidly over the last 30years and what was wished for in the 60s and 70s as"liberalisation" has returned in a different form of shackles.

I don't like "censorship" but sometimes I wish the "glam" and "glitter" purveyors would restrict themselves.



(That is. it can only be shown on TV etc, if it lives up to my "standards" of good taste.)
