  1. Hope you can all get together and make it work. Life's short and we're a long time dead so sometimes things need to be let gone.
  2. The two subjects aren't mutually exclusive.
  3. I'll give you a headstart; don't use your toothbrush.
  4. Sounds like the voice of bitter experience.
  5. Interesting development in the Conservative leadership competition. https://www.standard.co.uk/news/politics/boris-johnson-will-be-summonsed-to-court-to-face-accusations-of-misconduct-in-public-office-for-a4153791.html https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/crime/boris-johnson-trial-brexit-court-lying-prosecution-nhs-vote-leave-a8934451.html https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7081793/Boris-Johnson-summonsed-court-face-misconduct-accusation.html Wonder if anybody else, Remain or Leave, is feeling nervous?
  6. Indeed. Shooting or instant trap like a Fenns or similar in effect should be considered as mandatory.
  7. I know plenty of people that could do that but I still wouldn't let them loose on live quarry.
  8. They are a good predator for greys which tend to spend more time on the ground than reds. Reds are also lighter than greys so can get out further on the branches to evade the pine martens.
  9. I can see any attempt to prevent the culling of grey squirrels causing a lot of conflict with groups concerned with red squirrel conservation. I'd like to know how an air rifle shooter could demonstrate being 'properly qualified'. Another possible opportunity for NPTC, perhaps?
  10. Love a bit of goat's cheese.
  11. Wave some Pont l'Eveque under its nose and see if it's as keen.
  12. General Licences do not apply to greys, rats or rabbits, IIRC.
  13. https://www.thedailymash.co.uk/politics/politics-headlines/tommy-robinsons-guide-to-coping-with-rejection-20190528186025?fbclid=IwAR1OtqnT6kHLN2SJmLQ-D_zF-TRUgvM3pSb2EMjukwpA2k8dYpwzR9RX7MA
  14. When it was released, I was working on the Dice crew in a casino on Southend sea front. The gaming industry in those days would strip you of your licence if you were caught with any drugs so we couldn't believe it when it came on as the background music. Cue Dice crew sing-along.
  15. The Standard. That's edited by an ex-Conservative Chancellor. Left wing fake news!
  16. Man of the People Tommy Robinson/Stephen Yaxley Lennon loses deposit. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/tommy-robinson-european-election-results-video-yaxley-lennon-north-west-a8931451.html https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2019/may/27/humiliated-tommy-robinson-sneaks-out-of-election-count-early And in the interest of balance. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7073613/Tommy-Robinson-LOSES-MEP-bid-European-elections.html
  17. You've let us all down, but worst of all you've let yourself down.
  18. Dur, that's the BBC so it doesn't count.
  19. An elderly woman, well into her eighties, slowly entered the front door of a 'Sex Shop'. Obviously very unstable on her feet, she wobbled the few feet across to the counter. Finally grabbing the counter for support, and s-tut-ter- ing, she asked the sales clerk, "Dooo youuuu have dilllldooos?" The clerk, (trying hard not to laugh), politely replied, "Yes we do have dildos. Actually we carry many different models. . ." The old woman then asked: "Doooo youuuu carry aaa pppinkk onnee, tttenn inchessss lllong aaandd aabboutt ttwoo inchesss ththiickk ... aaand rrunns on bbaatteries?" Trying not to laugh, and with a little smile creeping around his mouth, the clerk responded, "Yes, yes we do." She stammered, "Dddooo yyoouu kknnnooww hhhoww ttooo ttturrrnn iittt offff?"
  20. So you expect to make a statement and have me take it as gospel without question but you wouldn't do the same for me? Like I said, let's agree to disagree as your opinions are your own like mine are my own. It's of no importance that we agree on them.
  21. I suspect we aren't going to find common ground on this one so I hope you'll forgive me if I go with the legal professionals' opinion over others.
  22. Ok, find me a case where somebody already convicted of contempt of court for the same reason has been allowed to repeat the same action without consequence.
  23. Given that the Rule of Law was in this case intended to prevent the very people you are railing against being able to appeal on the grounds of an unfair trial caused by Robinson/Yaxley-Lennon's actions, that's a pretty stupid comment. All his actions could have achieved was getting them off rather than being found guilty in the trial they were already undergoing. BTW, I specifically chose a selection of sites that tend to be more right leaning to avoid claims of bias.Still, smash the state, eh.
  24. Somebody needs a hug. Care to name names about who has got you all upset? Bear in mind though that just because somebody doesn't share your love for Yaxley Lennon as they are more concerned with the Rule of Law than with hero worshipping a self-publicist with a well publicised history of far right and criminal activity, it would be very foolish to suggest that this means they are in any way supportive of sexual exploitation of any kind, particularly when they have previosly clearly stated their position on the subject. By the way, here's a little light reading for anybody who might have missed this in the news recently. https://www.ft.com/content/7b0af7dc-765d-11e9-bbad-7c18c0ea0201 https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2019/05/14/tommy-robinson-will-face-fresh-contempt-charges-judges-rule/ https://pressgazette.co.uk/tommy-robinson-to-face-fresh-contempt-of-court-proceedings-high-court-rules/ https://news.sky.com/story/tommy-robinson-to-face-retrial-over-contempt-of-court-charge-11719979
