  1. Dear oh dear the anonymous assuming expert on everything gets it wrong again. I work with many different nationalities and religions as I’ve stated many times, I know it doesn’t fit your BS narrative SP but there is a huge difference between the two sides of the religion you are grasping at. The article was written in 2022 whilst who was in power ?? you tit. Need I say anymore more 🤷‍♂️
  2. Your post was ridiculing American workers My reply pointed out the technological lead the US has in many respects, I never bothered to even mention the industrial espionage and theft the Chinese are know for. As I’ve always said there is a huge difference between radical Islam and your everyday practing Muslim. We will never be on the same page I hope. Regards Isreal well like I’ve mentioned before regards Hamas don’t start a fight or carry out a planned terror strike including rape, burning families alive and beheading kids then cry when you get your arses kicked in the aftermath.
  3. 😂😂42 what a reply. Utter smart arse ATL bollocks from start to finish. 😂 The standard tactic when struggling.
  4. You may well be right but literally shackling ourselves to destructive deadlines when the technology doesn’t yet meet the rhetoric or ideology is not a wise decision, it will not make us world leaders in anything other than just like now with the cost of energy.
  5. 🤔 I watched the apple guy giving his big speech, let’s face it they are over there to make money and labour in a genocidal dictatorship “ for which you seem to have a bit of a soft spot” is always gonna be cheaper than in a democracy. The us arms and aerospace industries amongst others would indicate you might not be correct in your opinions on the ability of the American workforce.
  6. 🤔 The mine was to be used to dig up coking coal for steel production. It was expected to be able to
  7. Was the recent mine in Cumbria that was denied planning consent due to “green shite” not solely for that purpose??. We are literally sitting on millions of tons of some of the best quality coal in the world, yet we have for years since our own industry was prematurely destroyed imported huge quantities from all over the globe. It’s pure insanity that is leaving us very vulnerable. On this matter I’m not just blaming labour the conservatives have been every bit as bad. National security should be above all other concerns.
  8. 100% Agree the current net zero path we are on is a dangerous ideology driven example of sheer lunacy. I watched an article on the news last night about the 2035 commercial vehicle electrification target, Nestle I think it was running a trial on Volvo tractor units. Standard diesel unit £170000 GTW 44T with a range of 800 miles on one tank. Electric unit £300000 GTW 28T with a range of 130mile max “ with a large amount of variables thrown in”.
  9. Surely solving one part of the problem is better than doing nothing. Currently we are on a steady decline to the bottom. The UK is not without iron ore neither.
  10. Over 700 today and 9000 this year so far at £42000 per head. Smashing the gangs is obviously failing miserably. The desperate scramble to source coking coal is another example of the lunacy of this government’s policy
  11. 😳😳😳I remember Trigger getting a bit of a telling off for that kind of language 🤔 A retraction would be the honourable route. A quick recap of my 4 favourite Covid warriors 42👍pretty sure Andy was on the naughty step for that phrase, hope that helps with your confusion. I don't think I have seen anyone else calling someone's autistic child a window licker
  12. Come on Gareth you know the rules by now surely. ATL posts are unquestionably fact, never questioned in regards source or validity. The site auditor when such pics are posted by those with an alternative view is normally all over it like a bored witless office bod.
  13. Some life you lead SP
  14. Oh dear another anonymous ATL post counter 😞
  15. Johnsond

    Eh!

    No idea but well done to push it that hard the needle gave up the ghost 😂😂
  16. Absolute condescending drivel. An expert on post industrial social and economic decline of the North East now as well.
  17. Similar story in the 80s just after the end of the miners strike. Took one look around at my options and buggered off up to Ashington army careers office.
  18. I think if you shoot for long enough you will get the exotic calibre bug. Been there done it right up to 338lap mag and spent plenty for the privilege. Nowadays I’m down to 22lr, 223 and 308 which suits me fine. Good ammo for pest work mil surp if it’s a day of making brass. I also keep my shots on live targets to 150m-175m, the fieldcraft aspect of getting close is every bit as important if not more for me than calibre or optics.
  19. Some on here previously advising on strategies in regards Ukraine etc don’t seem to realise the security implications of not having our own steel manufacturing capacity. Watching the news this morning listening to various politicians waffling utter crap trying to justify the absolute mess successive governments have left the steel industry in. The situation the UK finds itself in regarding sourcing coking coal is ( bearing in mind the resources under our feet) a monumental own goal brought on in no small way by the ludicrous chase for “Net Zero” funnily the one clown who is rather conspicuous by his absence this morning is Milliband.
  20. Cheers 👍👍
  21. I shoot with a guy who swears by that calibre Stubby, he’s out nearly every weekend and at least once during the week all year round . He’s had no trouble with excess or premature barrel wear, mind you he does load his own. I tend not to take too much notice of the “barrel burner” stuff, possibly if you are banging out rapid fire strings at comps but for pest work etc 🤷‍♂️.
  22. Nowhere near the volumes of shite that’s pumped out on this thread You know how it is mark only you and the ATL get it eh 🤷‍♂️for the rest of the mere fascist oiks it’s just way too high brow. You guys are super lucky you have SP he’s an expert on Covid and vaccines, Global conflict and military strategy, International monetary policy and the tumultuous nature of the stock markets. Vehicle usage and job pricing. Climate change etc etc I could go on but it’s too much for a thick self employed ex squaddie like me to take in. On a different topic when was last time you were up Northumberland street in the town ??
  23. 😳🤷‍♂️it is ??
  24. The second long speel of shite in my absence today SP ain’t you got anything better to be getting on with lad, a family, kids, a dog to walk maybe even a project or two ffs 🤦
  25. What happened was the site expert on everything assumed incorrectly as is so often the case, read the post before getting all giddy and stupid and spouting pure shite from behind your veil of anonymity 🥱 Next Week being the clue 🤷‍♂️I think the USA recently had an election did they not, nonetheless it will be interesting to hear what those with skin in the game think of him. Rather than the shite posted on here day after day. Heading over to New York and Syracuse “next week”. It will be very interesting to hear the views of some real US voters for a change
