Possible to dispute the view of a tree officer?
tree-fancier123 replied to ArthurJob's topic in Trees and the Law
I should do - just too cowardly to get on and do it -

I don't get all this NHS failing talk, of course it could be better, but people are still having chemo on it that didnt even exist at the turn of this century. Loads of customers Ive met have had knees and hips done. Cataracts, triple heart bypass etc. So what if there are people on trolleys in the corridors? Its still way better than what they had in the middle ages

you need to be a lot more than sorry - if this is the best use of your time

he's already said he uses an electric chainsaw sometimes - doesn't have to rev up a 395, nothing to prove

it's not just that one patch of trees it's the whole country - the government don't seem to care if the population grows 200 - 500k a year. Human beings at their worst. No other animal destroys habitat like we do. the people moving into the ones below 'how lovely we can see grazing animals from the window' Me - 'how lovely if all those people could be vaporized so the houses never needed building' -
I would argue that POTUS is too powerful a man - whatever party he hails from. Trump can wreck our economy with tariffs if he chooses. The US decides which wars to fight and we usually follow in like sheep, not in Vietnam, but the Gulf Wars seemed to be us sucked in by the US. America moves interest rates and the Bank of England just copies. Trump trying to oust the Federal Reserve chairman to get lower rates, but inflation still quite high.

it is your neighbour's lack of diligence that's kept Starmer in a job - there must be something that could be uncovered to bring him down. People just need to be more obsessive.
-
Starmer was democratically elected too - just pointing out he's our authentic leader

Trump is a bit like Berlusconi - having his bunga bunga moment There were lavish dinners with boldface names at Mr. Epstein’s mansion on the Upper East Side and raucous parties with cheerleaders and models at Mr. Trump’s private club and residence at Mar-a-Lago. In between, there were trips back and forth from Florida to New York on one of Mr. Epstein’s private jets.

I don't think Trump did particularly want it released, but there was a MAGA backlash and he had to do something Trump supporters burn Maga hats in response to his handling of Epstein files – video | Donald Trump | The Guardian WWW.THEGUARDIAN.COM Some Trump supporters recorded videos burning their signature Make America Great Again hats, reacting to the president's handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files
-
My guess is Epstein did procure a girl or two for Trump, but I have to say, these were very young women, not children. You could argue a person is not adult until 18 or even make sex illegal until 21.

Trump going after the Wall Street Journal - WSJ lawyers aren't going to be second rate amateurs

I can't see this migrant returns deal with France making much difference - whereas the Rwanda scheme started working before it even got off the ground. Next election hopefully won't go to Labour - Reform would be much more willing to dispense with interfering legal systems. Wishful thinking can be harmful, last election I was thinking 'hopefully won't go to Labour'. Even a literally hung parliament would've been better.

so the cummulative total of illegal immigrants currently in the UK est 0.8 to 1 million. Every working person (above the lower income tax threshold) has had to work some hours to keep these people alive. If the government said to me - 'are you happy for some of your tax to pay to keep illegal immigrants alive, or would you rather let them die?' I would say tax me just slightly less and let them die. Selfish I know, but these illegals are not people I want to work to keep. They don't take up fruit and veg harvesting when granted asylum, taxi driver maybe

Neighbour's application to cut back my tpo'd tree

most of the consultants who joined the forum soon got fed up of working for nothing on here -
we can't stop the boats because of all the politicians who think like SP and sime42 These people dont want to be negative about the incoming sapiens
-
also that the internet has turned migration into a trend, with smugglers canvassing on social media
-
My view is that you SP are not intelligent enough to understand such a complex situation, but you like to think you are. I voted leave. The migrant numbers have been on the up due to global events.

As having a chip on both shoulders is derived from an idiom ( and was meant to mean some kind of cancelling out?) the words were still not taken literally and the meaning was derived from an idiom,so still is one (in my clutching at straws humble opinion) Definition of idiom from Oxford English Dictionary a group of words established by usage as having a meaning not deducible from the meanings of the individual words.
-
I'm not clever enough to argue my point, but in this case something tells me that if a chip on tour shoulder means a grudge, then (context dependent) a chip on both shoulders could mean 2 grudges, so a possible idiom
-
so another - kill two birds with one stone if someone adapted it to kill three birds with one stone, is it no longer an idiom? I contend Gareth's chip on both shoulders is still an idiom (as it means something different to an actual chip on each shoulder)

BillQ - just because you've scored a point - no need to keep calling people names, you've already called him an idiot. Sometimes when people call me names online it makes me feel unhappy, miserable even.
