  1. Ok in your opinion did he act with impartiality?, I don’t care either way as it happens, I still think the comparison he made was utterly ludicrous, his role or position will not change that for me. Most of the guys on his team are long term friends and in many cases England team mates they were never gonna step in. Maybe he still has a grind with Maggie making a crack about his transfer fee all those years ago.
  2. BBC’s long struggle to present the facts without fear or favour | BBC | The Guardian AMP.THEGUARDIAN.COM <strong>Charlotte Higgins:</strong> The corporation has always striven to be independent... I don’t think it’s a recent phenomenon Eggs or necessarily specific to the Tories, new Labour and Mr Campbell spring to mind.
  3. Our own track record of reducing the armed forces over the past 30 years is tantamount to criminal incompetence and neglect.
  4. There are some misgivings i know in Finland but to what extent 🤷‍♂️, two of my sons have done their National service there and both stayed with family members whilst on leave, the vibe I get from the uncle they stayed with ( whom was a navy regular and reservist for many years) is not positive in particular when it comes to sending large amounts of equipment etc, mind you he’s getting close to 60 now so may view things differently to the younger people looking at the whole Ukrainian/NATO situation. I do know there are a good few Finnish Jaegers in Ukraine fighting right now, historically absolutely no love lost between Russia and Finland.
  5. Revealed: experts who praised new ‘skinny jab’ received payments from drug maker APPLE.NEWS Novo Nordisk gave millions to obesity charities and healthcare professionals, including expert... Pharmaceutical companies employing the same ultra profitable tactics they always have.
  6. Eggs it’s neither here nor there 🤷‍♂️It’s an Internet forum that matters little. Just forget it bud.
  7. 🙄 right Eggs go back, read that again, have a think about how GL compared the UK to 1930s Germany etc.
  8. Advocating National Socialism!!! WTF are you on about now.
  9. That’s more like it Dempsey much better than a little clip, no contradiction at all in what I said, compare the behaviour of government and all its arms during covid to the current situation 🤷‍♂️Which is/was more akin to 1930s Germany.
  10. You don’t 🤔🤔i thought id seen you pop up there. You should then, you’d see what a **************** up the whole farce was and how much damage was caused by it, pretty much what many predicted would happen. Slightly more relevant to everyday life than our apparent slide to National Socialism according to GL.
  11. Are you having difficulty reading what I’m saying or can’t you remember the answers to the same questions thrown at me from the covid threads, I attended half a dozen protests/rallies through the whole farce. I’ve given descriptions of such at the time I attended. That’s a bet you’d have lost straight away Eggs.
  12. Nice try but not even relevant, standard Dempsey, you know exactly what was meant but the opportunity to be a smart arse is often overpowering it would seem.
  13. A valid point you can’t counter, at least you’ve moved on from the Moonbat comment. It’s a good clip though I’ll give you that.
  14. I’m well aware of how they got to the point of the extermination camps, if you and eggs think that we here in tbe UK are remotely like that then there’s not much I can say that will make any difference.
  15. Read the previous answers to that very same question that’s been asked a good few times before Eggs, did you attend any protests ?? did you contact your MP at any point ?? Did you literally do anything. I tried Eggs as best I could as an individual utilising the tools at hand in a democratic society as did a sizeable minority but unfortunately the masses as a whole bought into it.
  16. So your saying the UK today is similar to 1930s Germany!!, what a crock Eggs, Shame the outrage wasn’t as loud over the past couple of years when we actually did witness behaviour that was literally akin to Nazi Germany.
  17. No where did I say I’m not for free speech ??? I said comparing the UK with 1930s Germany is a crock !!. My views on overpaid fragile diving fannies ie premier league footballers makes it a nonevent for me, currently watching the Rugby which I far prefer. Although up to now it ain’t going so well 😞
  18. Comparing the UK today with 1930s Germany is an utter crock. If anything I’d have BBC as more left than right but 🤷‍♂️ quite frankly it’s a total non event for me.
  19. £4.9million says HMRC think slightly differently, regardless of any rules on impartiality.
  20. No but I’ll try and find out, I will admit to taking some but not a lot of satisfaction ( not much to be had from saying “i told you so” when we are all paying the price regardless of what you thought ) as more and more news comes out in regards the lunacy of the past couple of years. The Hancock watts apps must surely wake up even the most hardcore covid warriors.
  21. As I’ve said many many times no ones ranting and I’ll say again go back read many of the posts of the past couple of years on the subjects mentioned and then tell me which side of the divide was the often as not the most aggressive or willing to absolutely ridicule people. Wether you yourself or the odd wet blanket covid worrier take me seriously or not means nothing to me. Jokes aside whilst yourself and 42 put up laughing emojis, you really should take the time to look at the comments from yourselves, hard core uncompromising zealots such as Skychuck and the good doctor etc versus those of myself and others who were against much of what has brought us to the current disastrous financial, educational, health and social care etc etc situation.
  22. Not ridicule per se as for example Dempsey tries to do with that Moonbat shite. What I’ve done is stand my ground from day one in regards the utter futility of masks, restrictions, lockdowns and the unjustified vaccine mandates etc etc I’m all up for a robust heated aggressive debate, but the last bastion of the wrong is invariably to mock those with a different view. Like I’ve said before and it’s not with the benefit of hindsight try looking back over some of the posts over the past couple of years covering a number of topics from Trump/Biden to Covid etc etc and compare that with where we are now. There are some on here who must cringe at what they wrote and tried to justify/defend.
  23. Prince Edward takes title of Duke of Edinburgh APPLE.NEWS Charles has conferred the title, as Prince Philip had hoped, to mark his younger brother's 59th birthday Mark J Theres something to cheer you up, what a wet blanket of an individual, announcements such as this are not gonna do the royal family any good at all.
  24. Pretty much exactly the same as GarethM. Currently we are contributing to our own downfall as a society massively with what we are allowing and encouraging. Having experienced first hand the behaviour of a large group of sub Saharan African scum hanging around the city centre when my 14yr old daughter walked past them with myself, the Mrs and her twin brother in Glasgow recently I’d be 100% behind turning them around the minute they are apprehended.
