Just a wish...(there was a baby/pram/child free pub in ED)
???? replied to bermygirl's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
Yeah mums should know their place at home with their brats etc etc etc. Think there's possibly more money for pubs in the mums market mid-afternoon than say sole middle aged blokes. I suspect it's a pretty essential part of their turnover or they'd be closing and then the 'purists' would be moaning about no-one ever going down the pub nowadays. -
I only ever get my long range weather from The Express because that's always spot on

I did many of them - although some were past their best...and a few were before my time :) but I know all of them by name (and legend) except the boat one!

All class soul clubs PD
-
I used to go clubbing 3-5 times a week from 18-22. Then at laest once a week until I was 30. When I was 18 Weekdays were various Soul nights in the crap clubs - for dancing. Friday specialist soul clubs - for dancing/being seen. Saturday was 'pulling' (normally failing) in the average shite clubs with my non-soulboy mates (straights clubs as we used to call them in a more innocent time); when I got a bit older it was more in the centre of town and trying to be in the cool clubs though I always loverd Wend May's locomotion too but gradually was getting really bored of the club scene when HALLELLUH Acieeeed but when that got booted out of the clubs in '88 and went outdoors it was much more fun; then I started just going local and mainly the mambo/Fridge - never liked the Ministry et al that much The End was ok, blue note was ok. Ibiza Clubs were OK when I finally went out but I felt I'd done it all before..with better dancing... and even then they were way past sell by date.

No political points here or indeed any of my views but just some challenges that Corybyn would need to overcome if he's elected as leader and sticks to his principles and policies and then is putting together a manifesto for 2020 - i would be interested in hearing how people think he will overcome these. 1) Re-Nationalisation of rail/utilities/Royal Mail On paper (and in surveys) pretty popular. In reality will need to be paid for as I'm presuming he's not planning a 1920 Soviet Style confiscation of capitalist assetts. There come's the first test when tax payers are put with a bill for this policy, the onpaper support will collapse a fair bit I think. He's right to be asked (and her will be) how he's going to fund renationalising 2) Immigration Rightly or wrongly this is a big issue for many working class voters. Labour have always been uncomfortable with this reality and Corybyn does strike me as more principled than most, so I can't see him bending on this. So how he's going to persuade those that voted UKIP to come back. I know he'tll try an argue his well meaning case and admirable of him but in reality this is a massive challenge. I see Farage is delighted by Corybyn in today's news...I think I know why 3) Defence Not all Labour Party voters (or members) are of the CND/bamb the bomb inclination. Many highy skilled working class jobs depend on defence in some key constituencies, the armed forces are by and large working class plus many of the population are just not that at ease at all with slashing the defence budget 4) Welfare Unplatable as it is - many people support a curb in welfare payments. Again, you can make a moral argument against that but it's a tough one. As far as I can see Corybn will increase benefits and cewrtainly restore any cuts 5) 'Austerity' As the last election shows and even the words of 'tory lites' (ie all the sane candidates for Labour Leadership), in reality many people, including non-tories, understand that we can't just go on living beyond our means. To hit the increases in spending he is propisng will require significant tax increases taht will hit most tax payers. The 1%, fook the 10%, can't fund this one. The Tax Avoidance thing is a bit of 'money tree' economics too - they won't the ?54bn...the tories themselves are trying to close this too as were Labour before good rheteric doesn't deliver (ask Hollande). I'm not convinced most or even workers want more tax - despite the cliams... 6) Labour insurgency This will come. He'll have as many internal critics as from the tories et al. 6) Personal attacks If he gets elected, oh boy will they come. He's going to have to address - support for terrorism; support for paedos; no experience of govt;white middle-class, quite old, male from the London 7) Experience He has none in govt (or shadow govt). Againg, "Do you want this man as your PM?" will be everywhere approaching 2020

Fook me the fat old tosser is even more about our result at The Emirates than I thought he'd be.. :) Allardyce regrets finishing 10th in first Prem season Sam Allardyce has branded West Ham's owners "ungrateful". He has also dismissed his former employers' chances of qualifying for Europe this season but admits his own lack of faith in the squad may have dashed his chances of getting a new Hammers contract. Allardyce, 60, has lifted the lid on his summer exit after four seasons in charge at Upton Park, telling beIN Sports: "'The West Ham Way' is obviously not winning every week, like I tried to do! "I did everything they asked for and they wanted more, and I found that extremely ungrateful in terms of what I'd done for them. "They thought we could get into Europe [West Ham DID play in Europe this season but only after winning a place in the first qualifying round of the Europa League via the Fair Play Table] and thought they might be able to get to a cup final, and that wasn't in the format of the job description when I started. "I don't take kindly to people who don't appreciate what you do for them. AFPWest Ham's co-owners David Gold (L) and David SullivanGimme gimme gimme: Gold (left) and Sullivan wanted Europe and/or a cup "We both decided to part company in quite an amicable way in the end, but I certainly wasn't going to stay, in my mind, for a long, long time. "If [West Ham co-owners] David Sullivan and David Gold have told [new manager] Slaven Bilic that they expect to get into Europe this year then I think it's way beyond the capabilities of the squad at this moment in time. "I told them that. Perhaps that's one of the reasons why they didn't renew my contract in the end? "West Ham was a case of building a broken football club back up again. [Getting West Ham promoted] was the biggest job I had done in one season. "Ultimately, my biggest problem was finishing tenth in the first year [back in the Premier League] ? I would have been much better off finishing fourth from bottom!" Sam AllardyceSambusters: Allardyce's West Ham went up and stayed there but his methods were criticised Allardyce's West Ham reign has left him convinced the days of managers ruling a club from top to bottom are over. He added: "A manager today is fast becoming something owners don't want. They [owners] are in charge of the football club and want to see it flourish and the days of the manager being the almighty, dominant power like they used to be are long, long gone and you must build a relationship and understand."

However. What he (or the mad support for him) does show is the poverty of existing mainstream politicians in the Labour Party. He'd be an absolute disaster for this country IMO.
-
He has firmly held principles which he stick to but they are of course delusional rubbish, he's a pretty old school lefty with predictable dogmatic stances that spring from being an old school lefty and I can't believe intelligent people in the Labour Party are really thinking of voting for him even though rhetorically and image wise he?s very different from the other robots. But a leader, really? He supported Benn's support for co-operative socialism at Triumph...the reality of Benn's 'great experiment' was that Triumph workers lost their personal redundancy payments thanks to Benns' totally impractical, unfeasible and undeliverable 'support' He's tediously dogmatically anti-american (aren't they all); so blames Russian policy on american aggession like some pathetic 70s maoist student. You know - that's Russia that invaded another countries sovreaugn territory and gave missiles to rebels that shot down an international flight ALL AMERICA'S FAULT; I presume Russia's disgusting discriminatory laws on homosexuality are also somehow. He even said he thought that ridiculous Russian News station you get on Satellite in hotels tells us the truth more than our media....PRAVDA He thinks the sun shines out of Venezuala's ar*e though since the money tree has been found not to have not been a real money tree now means that the country's economy is collapsing and it's lefty govt is shutting down opposing media/politicians and protest. But you know it's sins can be forgiven as it's left wing.,,,and it's anti-america of course He supported the anti-Semitic Surrey Priest who posts links on social media from CT websites (including holocaust denial ones) because he's Anti-Israel (shock horror, now there's a surprise... Right on brother Jezz). He?s far more left than any leader of the Labour Party since the 1950s and a relic of the radical lefty politics of the 60s?
