Boris is going on about his bridge idea again (not the garden one that cost £53m to not build another more ambitious one)

 

Might need some skyhooks for it.....

 

WWW.BBC.CO.UK

Number 10 says "a range of government officials" are looking at the idea of a linking bridge.

 

So probably cost a few billion for the experts to decide its not a good idea ?

 

20 bn a bargin though compared to HS2?

 

 

 

 

It's a stupid idea at the best of times....

 

But with the SNP wanting independence and the reunification of Ireland likely in the foreseeable future, it is just plain daft.

 

On a separate note, Eustace taking on the Environment brief is like giving Gary Glitter & Jimmy Saville the keys to the kindergarten.....?

Suspected nonce. Or at the very least aware of Epsteins noncery, which makes him complicit. And a nonce.

Noncery - good word. I shall add that to my vocabulary.
Sounds like it could of come from the Viz profanisaurus for those that remember Viz...

So it might ‘seem’ Egger....

 

Maybe ‘tis true, weme fooked!

 

You know me, I’ll always try and find a positive if there’s one to be found. 
 

I’ll leave you with that and just float the question:

 

Can you even begin to imagine how much worse it would have been under a Corbyn / Labour government.....

Corbyn is by the by now, nothing to worry about and good riddance. What needs looking at is how Bunggling is going to separate, or is that join Number 10 and number 11. It isn't the way to go imo.

How so?

 

As he's from a farming background and has experience of that ministry and isn't an infantilised urban ecomentalist who thinks the countryside should be a Farthing Wood theme park, I'm cautiously optimistic about his appointment. For what reasons should I not be?

 

Far more worrying is that London Greta-groupie Zac Goldsmith remains head of Defra. It's hard to think of anyone who knows less about the environment, food production or rural affairs of any description.

How utterly lame, boring and small minded is the oft trotted out mantra that “unless yome 8th generation farmer your opinion is worthless.” 
 

 It’d be like suggesting the entire, combined brain power of academia is dwarfed by the superior, objective analysis and brilliance of window licker....

 

Not a naturally ‘likeable’ man, I was cautiously optimistic with Gove. 
 

Useless Eustace, as he’s affectionately  known in his constituency, will be a puppet of the NFU and that has no foreseeable environmental advantage so far as I can see....

You guess wrong. I'm not a farmer and I carry no torch for the industry.

I didn't say any such thing. 

You may have wanted me to say it, in the pursuit of confirmation bias, but I didn't. You did.

It was just a guess. No offence intended. 
 

I didn’t say you did. I certainly didn’t want you to. 
 

Don’t confuse confirmation bias with an objective opinion. The 2 are distinctly different. 
 

What was the theme park reference you used again? ?
