  1. It’s actually pitiful to see it falling apart like it is Eggs. If only Alan Johnson had stepped up to oppose Corbyn at the leadership stage.
  2. Rib tickling to watch another train smash day unfold at the Labour conference today. Even James O'Brien (LBC AM) was distracted from his incessant, school girl, belly ache, hissy fit, whining about about Brexit (probably for the first time in months) to leather into Corbyn! Christ, even David Blunkett in interview with Shelagh Fogarty (LBC PM) said of Laura Smith "...she needs to grow up and learn some history..." when referring to her call for a general strike. The quote went on to say "...who does she think a general strike would impact upon? Not the multimillionaires and fat cats since most union membership is public sector so it would be the users of hospitals, transport, councils etc that would shut down..." (not an exact quote but you get the picture!) And don't even get me started on Corbyn!
  3. I knew as soon as I pressed 'send' someone would pull me up there! The comment is entirely and unambiguously directed at the tosspot in the video. Love his energy though.... It's so contagious!
  4. What a complete dick head.
  5. It's like a double negative, double bluff! Has he not realised, what ever he says to do, out of principle, new, new Labour will do the opposite... Brilliant ? he's a genius!!
  6. They are all putting some pretty special effort into “avoiding” the question of a second EU ref. Spineless bastards - easy to criticise the people faced with the responsibility, not so easy (apparently) to say what you’d do differently.
  7. 4+ hours on train from here - better off (and certainly cheaper) driving!!
  8. Labourconference - first Laura Kuenssberg needs personal protection, now Jewish Labour MPs will be offered bodyguards at Labour conference. Nevermind “New Labour” this is new fascism.
  9. Serious? It’s fair weather hereabouts this week, if yome serious I’ll crack-on early in the week and get up there - If it’s on I’m staying overnight so as to get on the piss though.
  10. I’m not sure I would Mr ? It’s possible, it’s not as if 100s of 1000s of other UK residents aren’t similarly pissing their lives away with the snort for a whole bunch of reasons much less than he might have. Not saying that that would make it right or excusable, but I would suggest he’d be due greater degree of empathy than most given the sacrifices he has been forced to make and the systemic pressure that has been brought to bear upon him for talking what he believes to be the truth. You see marching dust, I see a man under a great deal of pressure living with the expectation of being incarcerated before the end of the week, being separated from his friends and family, probably being in solitary and possibly loosing his life - i’d suggest that would be enough to cause the visible signs of what “could” be misinterpreted as drug abuse but could just as easily be the observable manifestation of considerable stress. Like him or loathe him as a personality, there should be universal disgust at the nature of the treatment he has received from “the establishment.” Anyone that holds dear the privilege of freedom of speech can arrive at no other conclusion (unless they are actually a closet fascist.)
  11. I’d wear that with pride. He IS a fucking hero and due back in Court this Thursday. Watch the vid:
  12. This one:
  13. Don’t go for a pint with ?. He’ll probably wear his JC T shirt and talk Momentum all night!
  14. You're quite right! I'd forgotten, you have to put questions on your application form. Chances are though they'll be off the headlines by the time the show comes around. We had to submit written questions on the night too. Are you gonna wear your cheque shirt and underpants so we'll recognise you???
  15. The mighty JRM addresses the obvious absurdity of the argument which proposes a second vote whilst relying upon the premise that the Great British public were too ignorant to know what they are voting for. 00:35 - 1:55
  16. That's a bit harsh Eric! You don't HAVE to have a question to go on QT and not everyone in the audience gets to ask. You write your questions on a card at the pre-show reception and Dimbleby (or his minions) select the semi-intelligent, relevant, interesting and topical ones to be called upon to speak during the show.
  17. You’ll be sitting more comfortably now that we’re back in active disagreement then Mr ?
  18. Agreed, the tree owner DOES have the opportunity / facility to abate or prevent further nuisance to a neighbour - by submitting the circumstances and proposals via a TPO app. If consented, proceed. If not, liability for remediation of nuisance (after application) may be transferred.
  19. Yes it does! You’re finally starting to see sense ?
  20. Was it arrogance? He was Shanghai’d Into the Neverendum by UKIP and Tory pro democracy / anti fascist euro sceptics. He didn’t want to do it. Is it your assertion that his “arrogance” was in the failure to predict the outcome?
  21. That old crock.... Anyone that doesn’t see it the way I see it must be un informed... Thats a justification to keep re-running the question until the desired outcome is achieved.... ?
  22. You’re in the right direction, but on the wrong track mucker. Its a train wreck because it’s like a vegetarian trying to throw a BBQ. If we’d had someone that BELIEVED in liberation running the show, it’d be a whole different show right now
  23. I done QT in Plymuff a few years back. Got my question put to Justine Greening when she was overseas freebies for all Secretary. It was the warm up question just before cameras started rolling live - she'd just spouted off about how important it was to safeguard the SW rail infrastructure (the line around Dawlish had just been washed out to sea and Exeter was underwater again) so I asked why she didn't divert a fraction of her departmental budget to remedy catastrophes at home rather than supporting terrorist organisations in Palestine or the China / Indian space programmes.... Rapturous audience applause - she blushed and farted, literally went so red I thought her head would pop and was totally on the back foot for the rest of the show! Humdinger!! PS - The question for JRM - Don't ask a question, just tell him to stop messing around and take the top job! ??
  24. Could you expand on the nature and context of the works requested in the application and the grounds for its refusal? (Hit us up with a link to the LA planning page and the application number - that'd be the easiest way) It might be that the refusal is entirely appropriate - depending on what it was that was requested. One approach might be to reassess the nature of the works that are being requested, include a solid justification case for the proposed works and re-submit the new application. Whilst not always practical / possible, an email or telephone call with the TO or PO to get a better understanding of the reasons for rejection might provide the basis for a successful subsequent application.
  25. Bhah..... What have the Romans ever done for us....?
