  1. You need to meet an average voter and see just how well informed the all are! (most are just as informed as who shouts loudest in the Daily Mail that morning)
  2. If Robinson has broken the law then he should be punished. Checking your references you seam to be suggesting that since he is not a Muslim he should not be punished. Does this 'get out of jail free' religion card apply to all criminals by the way? There appears to be only JohnsonD on this forum who thinks that way, and does not represent the members views on this if you follow the comments. Criminal and regardless if there is the evidence to secure a conviction he should be taken to court, tried and punished as is the law of the UK. I cannot understand your reluctance to accept this apart from your racism.
  3. Partly but also in any deal the other half are also wanting the best deal they can get, a compromise is made... which given the UK is a minor party of 60 million trying to influence 600 million we were never going to get the deal that was sold to us be Johnson and Farage as the green sunny lands. Always was going to be the UK politicians going to Europe cap in hand and begging for a better option than world trade rules. As noted above, there is not much that the EU needs from the UK to be used as a bargaining chip. Was fairly clear at the outset that the EU would just laugh and get what they wanted, and the UK would suffer. And then we put in May as prime minister and undermined her every effort, then Johnson who is basically clueless. Shooting ourselves in the foot when our best politicians at the time are not up to the job. The fact that they are open to negotiate better term for us shows better UK politicians (Sunak and Starmer) than before (Johnson, Truss and May), and years of good will built up. Any negotiations that improve our lot is better than none at all.
  4. Gareth, no it isn't. It was a very simple question, hand on heart, how has Brexit positively benefitted you. You personally.
  5. Ahh, so we agree on something, so why are you whinging about Tommy Robinson then? If he has broken the law, and suspect he has if he is charged, then as you say, he should be suitably punished.
  6. I might ask, how has Brexit and it's application positively affected anyone? Think deeply and seriously. - A lot of talk on this forum about immigration, and since Brexit the Tory party was able to have an open door policy on immigration, excluding EU citizens obviously (we don't like the Belgians). The Tory policy since Brexit was mass immigration into the UK. Immigration was a fraction of what it was before. - Immigration returns was a thing when we were still friends with our neighbours too, not something to be used as a bargaining tool now. - Freedom of movement also worked the other way, added delays and costs to travel to EU, but also truck routes that went through Britain to Ireland now avoid the land route, sea travel now - UK Business struggled and still does struggle to trade internally to Northern Ireland - Similarly it is a struggle to trade with Europe, there are delays and costs added - Fishing, and we can catch all the fish we want in the North Sea, but the cod we like are not native to our shores - NHS... yes, that 350 million on the big red bus... kind of vanished hasn't it So this rip roaring success that is Brexit, hand on heart, where have you benefitted?
  7. OK so the Crown prosecution service thinks that there is enough credible evidence to secure a prosecution.... will that do you? so back to your post are you suggesting that a criminal should not be prosecuted? Or is it just the white criminals you feel that way for?
  8. So he has broken the law. Again. Are you suggesting that a criminal should not be prosecuted? Or is it just the white right wing criminals who should gain immunity.
  9. Yes, he hasn't done that either has he (though not so relevant following on from a piece about hostages in Gaza of course). (note though, not a US hell breaking loose and the inference it was going to be US led and worse than the Israelis)
  10. That reminds me, about 100 days ago weren't they all going to be released or else "all hell will break loose" hashtag DonaldTrumpFailureToActionWhatHeSays
  11. Oh no, whenever there is a headline making crime in the UK committed by a foreign national JohnsonD is on the case, whenever there is a headline making crime in the UK committed by a UK national, JohnsonD is weirdly silent. Why is that?
  12. Nothing at all to do with wings, all to do with the only criminals you ever post about are foreign born. Most crimes, of all types, are committed by UK citizens (in the UK), but weirdly fly under the JohnsonD crime radar. Why is that?
  13. Ahh, I see your interest. They are foreign. When did you ever last get outraged about a good old fashioned UK home grown criminal. There are plenty out there for you to pick from by the way. Some are even arsonists too if that is your thing this week. Go on then outpour your mock outrage when in reality all you want to do is rant that there are foreigners who dare to be in the UK.
  14. But while we are thinking about Biden and his diagnosis, did anyone else note that Trumps message of support was very much out of character of his writing style. I am not perfect but that note on Twatter was gramaticaly correct, no bigly / shouty capital letters and not blaming Biden for anything... almost as if someone had written it on his behalf, a kind of auto-pen-Twatterings. We don't like things sent out in the Presidents name that he didn't write remember.
  15. As the man said it so succinctly: "Assumptions yet again passed off as facts "
  16. So how often do you think he's pop into the doctors for a full on medical check including scans for every cancer? I'd still go with it is a new thing because his last test was 4 years ago and not noticed. FYI... you're in for a treat!!
  17. Now you are of an age now where doctors take an interest in a finger up the bum, for business and not your pleasure. They don't do that every week, every 5 years from 50... 50, 55, 60, 70, 75, 80 and 85? he was due for the old lubed finger next year. Last had a check 4 years ago and an aggressive cancer of course can take hold in that time.. no conspiracy, no miracle.
  18. Thing is Biden is a politician as competent as the rest give or take, and doesn't particularly need special mentions. Unlike Trump who is a whole level or 10 below the standards his predecessors have set - in terms of competence, financial ability, humanity, corruption, lies and 'untruths', in fact in terms of any measure you want really. 'Hair Sniffer' I will refer you to Mark J comment above. I do find it amusing though that Trump and his supporters make direct comparisons with Trump and Biden, as if the 2 are competing as to who is better and yet run Biden down as the worst ever.... the inference being Trump is better but not able to compete with the rest, so second worst? He is never compared to say Obama is he or any other more able leaders? Likewise you could consider the UK politicians, Johnson and Truss fell well below the standards we need and demand, and I commented, the others are about as competent as each other and do not need special mentions.
  19. And if you did the same poll today they wouldn't. People are fickle.
  20. About time too and if the opinion poll are accurate, following the important will of the people.
  21. Oh, not liking criticism of the thread headliner, Mr Trump? Back to ineffective attempts at insults? toilet doors, cuts like a knife, ouch, but suppose nothing better for you to do with your time.
  22. Excellent, and good luck. (a real breath of fresh air to see a 'give us a job' thread with interaction after the first post, and taking on board the advice, really hope it pays off)
  23. He's still having a Springsteen Strop, cannot handle criticism and wants law courts to silence his critics. Trump calls for ‘major investigation’ into Bruce Springsteen after singer brands him ‘incompetent’
  24. Not sure about that, should do if it is all standard - but someone with better knowledge will know
  25. Silly answer maybe but have you looked on L&S Engineers? 1122 790 9101 or 9102 ? Not sure if the difference is 9102 has the bolt included?
