You're right jimibt & si. I'll try and follow your good example.

I had to laugh at the 'tree hugging' comments. I drive a supercharged ranger rover (15mpg), I've just put a 4.6 v8 in my fun car project, and recently sold my 1300cc bike.

Tree-hugging .... mmmm i'd say not..... and not motors you use to attend a left wing rally :)

far from exemplary... more just prefer to cut thro rhetoric and personal insult. i'm definitely not saying i never get hurt and feel that i have to defend my honour. i guess for me, i just see rising to the bait as an easy win for the (master) baitor... (in ANY context)

anyway, the weekend beckons, life is present - go burn some ancient fossil fuel... (if i had hair, i'd be letting it shoot the breeze at the same time).

The one on the end in the red costume is more than likely SW. Hopefully he meets a sorry end sometime soon.

A well needed :lol: .. in several places, thx. My aim is to single-handedly use the last of the world's oil as quickly as possible and thereby solve the problems in the Middle East. Should be worth a Nobel prize I reckon.

I wonder what the hero of the bulldog brigade and the greatest Englishman of all time, Winston Churchill, would have said to all this. He was a great reformer of the Conservative party, joining them to break their system from the inside.

In 1903, he said this : “I am an English Liberal. I hate the Tory Party, their men, their words and their methods.

I bet that isn't on may tattoos but it's worth remebering when he's looking at you from the back of a fiver.

If my views are the same as Winston Churchill and Muhhamed Ali, I ought to have the strength to be as serene as you are. Now, if we can just persuade Winston and Muhhamed to give Mahatma G a lift in their car, it could be one hell of a dinner party. I'm not inviting Buffett again though cos he never pays his full share of the bill and keeps stealing Mahatma's poppadoms.

If you arrived in a Messerschmitt 109 then no, otherwise yes, very much so.

Although estimates vary, between 1945 and 1951 we became home to around 1/2 million new citizens. He was also the architect of the 1947 Resettlement Act.

So predominantly, 'white' European (non muslim) immigrants borne out of (justified) sympathy for a country ravaged by the Germans during the war?

What were Churchills collective thoughts on Islam, or on the justification of imperialist rule in India / Africa?

Sadly Lord Buckethead to give him his proper name, shouldn't have been allowed to stand as a candidate. It's a great loss. :(
His helmet also counts as 'face covering' which is, let's just say, 'controversial'. ;)

[copy/paste]
Certain groups of people are not allowed to stand, these include:
Members of the police forces
Members of the armed forces
Civil servants, judges and peers who sit and can vote in the House of Lords
People who are subject to a bankruptcy restrictions order or a debt relief restrictions order in England, Wales or Northern Ireland
People who have been adjudged bankrupt in Northern Ireland
People who have had their estate confiscated (sequestrated) in Scotland

Good lord that's outrageous! unreasonable people like this eventually start trying to persuade you to vote Labour and other perverted ideas so i'd be on your guard.

When the F are England going to learn from their mistakes. You cant win a game from keeping the ball. Every team we play teams know to park a bus and wait for the opportunity's. We lose every game the same.
