  1. I say it's at least slightly better than donnk's - like a brick wall that's on the piss only by 3 degrees off plumb, as opposed to 10
  2. firstly - if you re-read my reply slowly you will see I only addressed his use English, not the claims of fake news second - you must be game for extrapolating data - with all the measures in place to date there are ~34500 covid associated deaths in UK so far, 468 reported today, the daily death rate having peaked in April at around 1200/day (data.gov). Is 250k that far off with everyone rammed into the locals? Not to mention offices and schools.
  3. you need and old computer and one of those covert bypass paywall fancy bear Russian spyware add ons for chrome. It's behind a paywall
  4. BS that hasn't happened. You can't be as sloppy in your trade or you'd have been down the roaded.
  5. there may be some truth in that one, but I don't buy the blaming him for Savile blurb. Why not capitalize his name, gone feral? In October 2009, the CPS reviewing lawyer with responsibility for the cases advised that since none of the complainants was “prepared to support any police action”, no prosecutions could be brought. The review by the CPS chief legal advisor Alison Levitt QC concluded there was no evidence of any “improper motives” in the decisions by either police or lawyers. But she said the CPS lawyer should have challenged the police conclusions and sought to build a prosecution against Savile.
  6. "Do not give what is holy to the dogs; nor cast your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you in pieces."
  7. Interesting how the brits are different to the yanks - if this was posted on a US forum the tree would have been armchair free-climbed and pieced out in a hundred different ways by now. For a taste of your whiskey I'll give you some advice" So I handed him my bottle And he drank down my last swallow Then he bummed a cigarette And asked me for a light And the night got deathly quiet And his faced lost all expression He said, "If you're gonna play the game, boy You gotta learn to play it right You've got to know when to hold 'em Know when to fold 'em Know when to walk away And know when to run You never count your money When you're sittin' at the table There'll be time enough for countin' When the dealin's done Every gambler knows That the secret to survivin' Is knowin' what to throw away And knowin' what to keep 'Cause every hand's a winner And every hand's a loser And the best that you can hope for is to die in your sleep
  8. now if only they could link the south and north parts of the M25 like this, it would save going all the way around Cairo flats are handy for new motorway
  9. In a similar vein, there are quite a few using Beaver Tree (services, surgeon etc)
  10. On reflection - if you became as sucessful as the current best Total Garden Solutions in the country that may be quite something. If there isn't one within say 70 miles of you it could be ok. If you considered going Ltd at some point it may have to be regional. If you're ready for the super-yacht, why not tap the stock market for capital to expand? Total Garden Solutions PLC
  11. hey I was only being nasty, as I've had a hard life, but others have and are using that name nationally - google it and see
  12. yesterdays cartoon and today they backtracked Government now says no French quarantine exemption WWW.BBC.CO.UK Under the plans announced last weekend, people arriving from abroad must isolate themselves for two weeks.
  13. Total waste of time
  14. Like Paul Cleaver pointed out it's the selfish gene hypothsis - check it out. There may be nothing you I or anyone can 'do' about our behaviour. People like it when women moan, but not men, that's sexual discrimination. 'We share the same biology, regardless of ideology'.
  15. No, I'm just a whiner, haven't progressed to problem solving yet - we will be paying for covid bailout for a long time - like you said. A few hundred billion could have done a lot of other stuff for the country with all that the money of the rich isn't available for a solution I agree. It's theirs and they should be allowed to keep it. Unless....
  16. capitalism is the best thing we have - all the cash we need for NHS etc in the hands of selfish pigs they were so brainy and knew how to keep everything for themselves
  17. early communism was bad with the dictators, early capitalism was bad with the slavery, a few hundred million dead here and there - you want to bake good cakes, maybe some flour gets spilt on the floor
  18. Equality didnt kill any of them - if there was equality the leaders would have perished in the same way.
  19. inequality isn't all bad, it's good for business, always has been
  20. I was wrong. There's nothing bad about how the super rich have made their money.
  21. Imaginary wealth, yeah real enough to buy multinational property portfolios while their lowest paid workers have to scrimp and save for their first rabbit hutch. Bezos, Phillip Green et al could have paid their lowest paid better, but they preferred to maximize the inequality. So a billion - a million times a thousand, no probs. A trillionaire - million times one million of imaginary wealth. The first billion dollar mega mansion estate? People dont like to think theyve been conditioned into thinking the super rich are doing nothing wrong. Nothing wrong theoretically with some clever businesswoman amassing one trillion pounds? People do cash out of public companies to the tune of billions and the shares dont reprice downwards, not always. Capitalist supporters will look at the first person to make £€$ 1000000000000 as someone who created a lot of jobs, good on them. Could have paid their lowest paid better, but didn't want to.
  22. Ok so the 20 quid is a tax on the poor, could be sold for less without manufac becoming billionaire. The world stomachs billionaires somehow. Should trillionaires come to pass the cheerleaders will praise them for their innovation
