  4. Rory Gallagher was a phenomenal player.
  5. Apparently so: Tory MP David Warburton suspended after sex and drugs allegations WWW.THETIMES.CO.UK The picture instantly conveys the mismatch between his public persona and his behaviour behind closed doors. David...
  6. Aye, she's got that redhead fiery thing going on. I wouldn't want hear her read the shipping forecast on the regular though.
  7. Good luck mate. Today's a good day, I suspect your business will fly.
  8. I agree with your appraisal of Starmer. I think that Boris should have quit by now though. I also agree that it is ironic that people are only now beginning to cotton on to the fact that we've been taken for granted all this time.
  9. I take it you didn't watch it then.
  10. You see that's the thing, I'm concerned about what's happening now, not what went on 40 years ago. It would be difficult to call out a Labour government seeing as we don't have one. What do you think about the "The Conservative Party and Putin's Russia: a story of total moral failure" video?
  11. Gavin Andrews 54 m · In case anyone's interested in how come P&O were able to shaft 800 British workers, but their EU colleagues are all still in their jobs... The government aren't in a position to take legal action against P&O because of the law they pushed through parliament excluded shipping companies from the requirement to notify the secretary of state in this country before announcing mass redundancies. They only have to notify the equivalent person in the country the ships are registered in, but there's no legal penalty listed for them failing to do that, whereas there is a legal penalty for non-shipping UK companies who did this. So the government specifically put in place a new law on leaving the EU that allowed ferry operators and other shipping companies to do exactly this without any penalty. Yet they've spent the last 2 weeks publicly proclaiming how wrong it all is, while not mentioning the fact that they wrote the law that allowed it to happen. Coincidentally the minister responsible now has a cushy £100k a year job for 1 day a week working for one of the biggest international port operators. Working class tory voters - this is what they really think of you.
  12. How old were you when you first got into tree work? The longer you do something the more refined you become. I started in my late twenties with a pretty good level of fitness and was pretty much invincible for a while. I'm way more aware of failing body parts at 45. I only climb for surveying these days though so it might be a case of use it or lose it.

  14. It sounds like the church yard is fulfilling their 'duty of care' by having their trees surveyed. There is no reason for them to provide you with a copy of their report. Should the tree fail then your insurers will take it up with theirs.

  20. This takedown of Rishi Sunak over his family’s Russian investments was magnificent WWW.THEPOKE.CO.UK The morning after his mini budget was widely derided as an ‘up yours’ to people struggling with the cost of living crisis...
  21. This is the same 'clip' from Boris' mates newspaper. .
