Do we have a £10 pom option, I might need to relocate from the green hell ?. It's that or with all your rewilding, food imports will become something of a hunger games and the Aussie green will be welcoming people to the thunder dome?. What about a carnivore only policy for any vegan that laudes it, oh that's every vegan.

The last time we were asked by the liberals, we told them to sling their hook. Even less happens under a proportional system. They all just sit fighting amongst themselves and even less gets done. You can argue three people around a table it's fine, but looks at Wales, northern Ireland and Scotland. It's proportional and equally less happens.

Don't think it was a lack of political nous, it was a pretty car crash example tho, almost that painful to watch I had to hit the mute button. She may be the leader after the apocalypse, she might be last rat standing!. William Hill has farage at 1/4, labour at 8/1 for Clacton

I don't think when the NFU says we should be self sufficient they also meant opium, that's probably more coop banking.

Farage came off pretty well during the debate, Penny looked like she was teleported from the 80s with that hair and probably lost her seat as a result.

No you silly boy, that's doggy and having an existential crisis of where to put it

@peds it's not a shaky grasp of history, history is never binary and is down to interpretation, that's why we have historians. Just because Germany went on a little corporate expansion didn't make it WW2, most of Europe was taken quickly until it came to the borders of the UK and Russia and it became apparent what was happening to dissenters and cleansing in the years following. As I've said we live in a different world, it'll never happen again with social media. Imagine Pinochet, Pol Pot, Franco, Mussolini today.

Believe what you will, reality is those companies did get very rich, even Mr Ford liked to fun annual celebrations. Might have been backing the wrong horse, but the world is a different place.

Absolute right of kings kinda eventually ended when a certain Cromwell removed the king's head. Granted it did not end well for Cromwell either as surprise surprise he wanted to hand on the power to his son, and was buried in the king's regalness. The years of overthrowing things is over, you can vote to change, but you'll have to change from the big 3 and it ain't happening anytime soon.

Property ownership was in large part due to the black death, the owners and serfs died in great numbers. So the land went fallow and starvation, so land ownership change and things like the feudal system stopped, except sark. Votes for women and non property owners was in large part to WW1 & women working whilst the men were away, after years of working the clock could never be reset. Similar to the NHS, the government of the day had to give something tangible in recognition for the years of war and being away from home.

And to assume makes what ?. You're obviously not old enough to have realised you can't change the system, you work with what you've got. Screaming about taking down the system and acting like a 5 year old in Asda achieves absolutely nothing.
-
Whilst we all aspire to those things, to use a old South park quote, vote or die. It's always a choice between a douche and a turd sandwich.
-
Well you seem to do a lot of slagging off every political party. I take it you'll be using crayons to spoil you ballot or are you just casting your own vote for the monster raving looney party ?.

What about your former Trotsky poster boy, Jeremy?.

Fine reword it if you like, the average Frenchman might not but everyone in the political class does.
-
Play dumb all you like, you may believe they are my incoherent ramblings but you telling the world it was just about territory is BS.
-
Territory yes, but ethnic cleansing was probably the part of the thing that then put us at war. Look at how France fell in days, many other countries practically before brunch. You could argue they did resist but look at the how the french still hate us even after liberation. Spain and Italy just rubber stamped it as they were fascist leaders and just joined the big boy.
-
Maybe your education in a neutral country forgot about that, what about the Bosnia ?
-
Oh, you forgot about the Juden.
-
Whilst they took lots of territory, it wasn't exactly a secret they planned to invade the UK and you know that whole final solution thing wasn't exactly palatable.
-
Why not take up rock climbing with a group or at the very least do a day or two with a tree company being shown how to do things. Whilst it's nice to learn, you're not going to be popular with the local fire station first time you do yourself a injury or get stuck up a tree.

Dynamite= Alfred noble awards Maxim sold machine guns to both sides during a few conflicts including the 1st world war. IBM didn't do too badly from what I remember keeping track of numbers on the trains. And I'm not a cheese eating surrender monkey, but most wars are about territory. WW2 probably being the exception to the rule
-
Propaganda is always with an ulterior motive to make your side seem to be doing better. Plus war was so profitable they even made an award to make it a little more palatable. Bit like maxim, made lord of war look like a rank amateur.

A wasp then, it didn't have any fur like a pollen carrying bee.

I'll try the turkey foil first, got to have a variety of hats to choose from. Just wish it was embossed maybe Christmas themed for parties.
