  1. Why don't you enlighten us? PS. I will stop reading if you write "sheeple".
  2. From Wikipedia...... "The "Bowling Green massacre" is a nonexistent incident referred to by U.S. Counselor to the President Kellyanne Conway in interviews with Cosmopolitan and TMZ on January 29, 2017, and in an interview on the MSNBC news program Hardball with Chris Matthews on February 2, 2017. Conway cited the "massacre" as justification for a travel and immigration ban from seven Muslim-majority countries enacted by United States President Donald Trump. However, no such massacre ever occurred. Conway later said she meant to refer to the 2011 arrest of two Iraqi refugees in Bowling Green on various charges including "attempting to provide material support to terrorists and to al-Qaeda in Iraq."[1]"
  3. You can do, i'll even buy you a glass bottle of "ginger".
  4. Here's some "fake news". I used to have a lot of time for the BBC, however their bias is getting beyond a joke now. I'd suggest that doctored images of Trump belong on facebook and not on a news website....
  5. Thanks very much, it's always good to be considered an expert. Wow! That's original! I think that's the first time in the history of the internet that someone has alluded that someone else is a Nazi. Well done, the next time I'm in Glasgow I'll buy you a fried mars bar supper.

    Dehumidifiers

    If I wanted to increase the speed a kiln dries at I would probably add fans to move the air inside first of all. A little known scientific fact about humidifiers is that they give out more heat than they use in electricity. If a humidifier uses 1000 watts of electricity it might give out 3000w of heat. I'd be experimenting to see how much water a dehumidifier removes - make sure the outlet from the dehumidifier drains outside your kiln.
  7. In 2005 Labour had a party manifesto to hold a referendum to ratify the Lisbon treaty. They never held the referendum... Labour are also the knobs that allowed half of East Europe into Britain. Tbh, I don't think anyone can trust Labour on Europe. I pray that UKIP pump Labour in the Stoke by election.
  8. It appears that the establishment are clueless as to what normal people are thinking. First of all they got Gina Miller to start her court case against Brexit. Her husband is a multi millionaire financier and she wasn't even born in the UK. Now the establishment think we will listen to what a war criminal has to say.
  9. Lol, Tony Blair is a toxic brand. He's hardly going to convince people that Brexit is a bad idea. imho Tony has the blood of a lot of people on his hands.
  10. I spent literally weeks looking for a corrugated steel roof supplier. All the places I looked had absolutely ridiculous delivery prices for what I was after (£120 delivery for a £100 order). I then came across metal4U, a mere £20 delivery. I wanted the steel roof as a it should last a good thirty years and then it could be recycled. I'm not really convinced that some of those bitumen corrugated roofs will last the test of time.
  11. Yeah, you tell him Mark! Us British people don't want to hear anything about what is happening in France. As far as we are concerned nothing of interest happens further away than the white cliffs of Dover. You really are a grade A xenophobe.
  12. fair one, I know what it's like to plant something and see it eaten by deer I've read that lion dung keeps deer away as the deer are scared of large carnivores. I understand some zoos sell the dung for this purpose - could be worth a shot.
  13. surely it depends how many days off he has a year? there's a big difference between someone that is off sick once a decade to someone that is taking weeks off at a time. if I was an employer it would p1ss me off if an employee took more than 2 days off sick a year (unless he had known health issues). I used to work beside someone that hadn't taken a day off in twenty years, on my other side there was someone that was off a couple of days a month.
  14. Why an electric fence and not a traditional deer fence? Do you remove the fence after your trees are established?
  15. Because the Koran itself says that non muslims are second class citizens? Traditionally Christians living in muslim lands had to pay a special tax (Yizya) for living in a Muslim country. Because IS themselves have said they attack the West because we don't follow Allah? Because terrorist attacks have constantly attacked Non Muslims? Do you remember the attack on the African shopping centre where Christians were killed and muslims were let go? Tbh, I think 99% of people reading this thread would agree that IS have a policy of targeting non Muslims. When you constantly deny this policy it makes you look as if you don't have a grip on reality... So thanks very much
  16. If they are so badly funded why are they still in existence? The truth of the matter is that they get financial assistance/ weapons/ and volunteers from places like Saudi..... The yanks trained up the Iraqi army for years and gave them top quality weapons. IS overran the Iraqi army in weeks, not bad for a bunch of "headless chickens". The denial on this thread is strong.
  17. Tbh, I'm honestly astounded that you need proof that IS attack Christians and other non Muslims. What do you think would happen to someone wearing a cross that walked through IS territory? Apart from the Yazidi sex slaves do you think there are many non muslims in IS territory?
  18. Dabiq was the magazine produced by Islamic State. They had an article giving the reasons they hated the West. The number 1 reason is "Because you are disbelievers, you reject the oneness of Allah".
  19. ISIS did have a magazine that they published..... ISIS also specifically hate Jews.... Or is that also "claptrap"?
  20. ISIS have a policy of going after non Muslims....
  21. Lol, People are always comparing this time in history to the rise of Nazism. The way I see it is that in 1938 Prime Minister Chamberlain went to Germany and got his peace deal with Hitler. He came back and made his "peace for our time" speech. Events later showed that he had been taken for a mug. I think you lot are being taken for mugs just now. Secular democracy and Islam just don't mix. Sooner or later we will all have to face that reality.....
  22. There are people that hate you and your family and would gladly kill you. Bare that in mind when you post something like that. You think that because you're nice to someone that they will be nice back, the world doesn't work like that.
  23. Really? So Islamic State aren't specifically going after non Muslims? Do you ever watch the news? Is that another example of "fake news"?
  24. Well the fact remains that religious violence all seems to be one way. In the Middle east/ Asia/ Africa etc Christians are routinely persecuted by Muslims etc. In "Christian" Europe it's mostly Muslims attacking Christians. So your viewpoint seems to be wrong. Europeans really have to understand that not everyone wants to hold hands around the camp fire and sing songs.
  25. It's right to be sceptical of experts - I've certainly met some experts that were wrong. However when the experts say something that is corroborated by numerous terrorist attacks is it not time to listen? We've had dozens of terrorist attacks in Europe over the last two years. It seems every month counter terrorism police arrest more "Brits" for terrorism offences. I know people in Europe and they say their police forces are constantly arresting people for terrorism offences. This seems to be a time in history where we have to admit there is a problem and vote accordingly....
