  1. 😂😂Still bitter about the brexit referendum 😂😂 remind me when was that now 🤔 To hell with the youngsters here trying to get an apprenticeship or training eh 👍 4 years to 12 nah it’s nothing eh, maybe a few hours spent on the bottom in an area wiped out by a fleet of EU registered beamers might change your mind, but I doubt it. Not sure if you noticed but Labour slated the tories for the amount of immigration whilst they were in power, also making a lot of noise about skills shortages in many trades and disciplines. Starmer 🤮the minute the bullies of the EU have barked at him has crumbled like a total coward. Where’s the incentive for UK firms to train people when they have a pool of 18-30 year olds of whom many will be trained up and ready to go . “ youth mobility” in name only, nothing more than a pool of labour that will be a death sentence for UK apprenticeships as was the original curse of free movement.
  2. The numbers of guys who did as you describe would I suggest have been absolutely dwarfed by the traffic coming the other way and the apprenticeship and training opportunities lost. I don’t see a 30 year old as a youth. Basically Starmer caved like a house of cards, the last few lines of the article are spot on. Fishing puts the dampeners on Keir Starmer’s EU reset deal APPLE.NEWS In the end, as ever with Brexit, it all came down to fish. Late on Sunday night Sir Keir Starmer conceded to...
  3. Everyone here knows you are very secretive about your Scottish Government role, but in reality did you ever actually go to Europe and work 🤷‍♂️??? Apart from a few longer lines at the airport what has changed with holidays, as far as I’m aware “ nothing” you can still holiday where you want ???
  4. People know Starmer is a liar, they know he is a remainer who has no respect for or ever accepted the referendum result, they know he prefers the EU method of go back and try again if the result is not what is expected. Sadly if history is anything to go by the ridiculously titled “ youth mobility scheme “ will more than likely harm those trying to gain apprenticeships and training to get a start in life. Luckily contrary to some shite on here about polls, all the polls I read show reform as doing substantially better than Labour.
  5. Gary Lineker 'QUITS BBC and will not host World Cup' after antisemitism row APPLE.NEWS Gary Lineker will reportedly leave the BBC amid the backlash to a social media post he made on the... Long overdue. Overpaid left wing mouthpiece.
  6. Yeah the American public were aware of who and what they were voting for. 😂liable I like it Mark you tread lightly eh. A split jury , a woman who went into the changing rooms with Trump and a porn actress. 🤔There's a reason he’s not in jail on criminal charges Mark and you know it.
  7. You might be right Mark but I’m sure a good few of you on here argued for the old child sniffer.
  8. https://www.linkedin.com/posts/eric-boreczky-3a5397b_kamala-attacked-hurs-integrity-and-lied-ugcPost-7329850934547652609-Tuci?utm_medium=ios_app&rcm=ACoAADB-kJ0BWrJUW5tVr2sxqvep_SKvMEUK9bk&utm_source=screenshot_social_share&utm_campaign=copy_link Just a little reminder of how Trump made it to the white house again. Don’t lie to people and tell them what they are seeing is not the reality of a situation Ie he’s as sharp as a tack in private. The book in the pic “ not photoshopped “ should be a good read. 😂😂
  9. Millions spent on hydrogen buses left stuck in depots due to lack of fuel APPLE.NEWS Liverpool and Aberdeen are amongst the cities that have seen dozens of vehicles off the road since last... Well there’s a good place to start. This is a well known joke up in Aberdeen. Saying that I didn’t realise they were half a million a pop 😳the left never have a problem when it comes to squandering other peoples money.
  10. That would be a “ fact” Gareth, you know facts often don’t go down well here. Encounters at the border are at the lowest since records began 25 years ago. The current administration in the USA said what they would do pre election and are fulfilling the campaign promises. Pretty much the exact opposite of what’s happening here.
  11. 😂😂😂😂😂😂 Mind you that explains a certain reluctance to be honest about what you do for a living. I’d imagine the only thing more embarrassing than saying you work for a failed discredited Scottish government is to admit you work for the HMRC on a forum of predominantly self employed blokes, 🤔 saying that come to think of it he has a lot to say about tax and people’s earnings. He could always look into the self appointed queen of Covid and chief nanny Sturgeon seeing as she’s now paying herself dividends from her ltd company she set up to put her “ biography “ earnings in.
  12. Are people being arrested and locked up for an Internet outburst in the USA Gareth 🤔 Scottish government and the old hate crime bollocks. One of Sturgeons swords.
  13. Food for thought for the experts on international relations and strategy that abound on here.
  14. Whatever it is Stubby the Finns will take it seriously. One of my sons is currently doing his national service, at the minute they are on a multinational exercise with multiple NATO nations including the UK. Apaches are also over there from the UK.
  15. Starmer scrambles for Balkan migrant deal after Albania snub APPLE.NEWS Bosnia sources say they would enter talks with the UK over a possible agreement Rwanda Cancelled on the first day in power, despite evidence it was an effective deterrent even before it was officially in place. Labour did what they said they would and that’s 12000 illegal unvetted £42k a year immigrants so far this year. 👍👍
  16. I do wonder how I’ve managed to get this far in life without the amazing sense of comprehension and understanding of all things political I keep hearing about. Could it be that honesty and hard work ( including being proud of what you do for a living rather than hiding it) are more important than that arrogant left wing “ you just don’t get it” mentality. Who said Trump was good for the world ?? I’m pretty sure he was elected on the “ America First “ promise. As for differences of opinion and insults I’ve never ever reverted to blatant lying or even going as low as repeatedly putting a forum members name in a sentence along with the word “ rapist “ like a sick bugger does on here.
  17. https://www.linkedin.com/posts/activity-7328709951550337028-LNQx?utm_medium=ios_app&rcm=ACoAADB-kJ0BWrJUW5tVr2sxqvep_SKvMEUK9bk&utm_source=screenshot_social_share&utm_campaign=copy_link That's a cracking plan, let a liar who blagged her CV, part of a government with zero business experience decide how the pension fund you worked your arse off to contribute to gets invested.
  18. Once again the selective source auditor is talking pure shite. Just answer a straight question SP, why no reaction to all the utter drivel and pics that are posted on here about the current US administration , if it aligns with your left wing BS you are silent I put a screen grab up of an article and you claim “ photoshop” yet again, you are like an annoying yappy little dog that just won’t stfu 🤷‍♂️ The thread is titled POTUS is it not 🤷‍♂️not Trump Qatar Whingefest🤷‍♂️
  19. 🤔Really, you’ve a short memory 42 Back on topic you wonder why the Republicans got in.
  20. There was nothing complex about a lot of the sheer stupidity and pointless nonsense we saw and lived through during that period. I’d have thought the behaviour of those in a position to have far more information and knowledge available to them at the time which we now are fully aware of would be enough of a clue. You certainly didn’t need any training to realise not long into that farce that things had got absolutely out of all proportion. But I guess it’s a personal choice as to what we believe about that period of madness. The explosion was caused by Hydrogen build up from the oxy arc cutting process it’s happened before numerous times and will happen again. Why ?? Because people make the same stupid mistakes and decisions time after time after time thinking the outcome might be different, not unlike the whole lockdown concept and numerous other measures that were put into place by power hungry politicians.
  21. I can see the stance you took on a dedicated thread on the subject hasn’t changed much. Mind you it takes a better man to admit he was wrong or swallowed the BS big time. Hang on isn’t that your line 😂😂
  22. Nope not at all, simple facts Mark suit me fine every time, no assumptions or guesses etc. The actions taken and what people were asked to do was ridiculous, I’m not a microbiologist and it was plain to see as far as I’m concerned.
  23. I agree 42 repeatedly trying to create an obscure link between a Democratically elected president, rape and a forum member with absolutely zero evidence to support it is pretty pathetic. What is the untenable position you speak of ??.
  24. You know SP you are about as low as it’s possible to be. You repeatedly put my name in the same sentence as the word rapist. Post after post you try to create a ****************ing narrative with zero proof, show me once where I’ve said he’s my hero or rape is ok 🤷‍♂️there’s hardly any point in asking you too as history shows you never can. Now you are claiming I’m a rapist fan. You have pushed and pushed this rapist line and now resort to dropping my name in time after time. All done from behind the veil of anonymity Arbtalk offers you. Would you say it to my face if I was stood in front of you I wonder or let your employers see the shite you post in work time ??. I’ve read your first post in regards my reply to Peds post and the follow up where you upped the ante several times now, you know you really are one sick twisted fool. See where this takes you SP.
  25. Because they cost a bloody fortune to build, install and maintain. The areas with sufficient tidal flow to make it worthwhile are by nature a nightmare to carry out Subsea Construction in be it with divers or rovs. There are a few around the UK. Something like the Severn Barrage which has been talked about for god knows how long would be a far better option long term. Second highest tidal range in the world down there the energy potential is huge. We just don’t have the balls as a nation it seems to do such things nowadays.
