Oh dear- short memory re Iraq war, and the things I remember about BLIAR (yes that has been his nickname for years) is that he did 11 U turns within 2 weeks of getting in, and drove a stupid Ford Galaxy thus setting a BAD trend for the environment, sent his kids to a catholic school and then converted to catholicism himself- (pandering to the EU even then). And he had John Prescott (freedom for travellers to cause havoc and cost to taxpayers everywhere), to do his philandering for him, and Tessa Jowell to take away gambling restrictions to raise the revenue for his ludicrous vote-chasing schemes. you could not make it up even in a banana (is that racist?- sorry if it is- it's a generational thing) republic. Let's not forget anti-semitism either

It does not matter who you vote for in ED- it's a done deal....just read some of the other political threads- you'll get the idea and it is RED

I've never voted Labour, and especially since I was involved in hard left politics in the 1970s I never would. Everything that comes out of the mouths of Lansman, Corbyn and McDonnell etc just confirms my fears that they are very much of that same mindset. The anti-semitism is a sure-fire way of ensuring the muslim vote. We only have Brexit 'chaos' because the democratic will of the people, who voted according to their own experiences in their own locales, was ignored and sneered at.

Why don't they just promise to massively increase wages and put everyone on a 3.5 day week like they did last time around https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2018/08/16/average-gp-now-works-35-days-week-just-one-20-trainees-plans/ and cause crises everywhere

Racism...lol...typical libtard comment when you don't like the actual truth and actual FACTS about the impact of the flood of east european 'tradesmen' in many areas of the UK....analyse the Leave votes in England- that will tell you where the impact was- not in the blinkered enclave of East Dulwich

Goodness- you should get a GP referral

The comment about flying planes into buildings is obviously sarcasm if you bothered to read it properly katanita....SpringTime just took their tactics to the Extreme...btw someone renamed them Exhibitionism Rebellion

I have just been told that during a phone in on the radio yesterday a woman said that her daughter has decided that she is never going to have children because of the climate problem...I wonder how many other young people are totally freaked out by the irresponsible actions of this crazy group- yes crazy- https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7656891/Extinction-Rebellion-fanatic-branded-neighbour-hell-turning-750k-London-home-shrine.html A former electrician, (probably lost his livelihood after Blair let in the East Europeans- that's how my electrician relative lost his job as he could not compete with ?20 a day workers living 15 to a house) but notice that before he lost his job- and his marbles it would seem- he had a nice little car! AND I bet he flew everywhere on holiday....

I think yer average XR activist would say they are protesting on behalf of the non-white people who suffer more from climate change, n'est-ce pas?

On top of that cost is the cost of the actual defacing of public buildings etc because they are being let off https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2019/11/01/extinction-rebellion-protester-cleared-criminal-damage-arguing/ They really aer rent-a-mob...and include a bunch of crusties who've had their fun. buggered up the planet and have nothing better to do but seek 15 minutes of fame!

I don't get it. You say your insurers gave you your loss and your car is written off so why are you insuring it again?

Anthropomorphism should be banned

No- just getting my money back (ha ha ha) AND I could challenge their homophobia face to face....and I now know that the indoctrination is actually getting worse...importation of more fundamentalist video material from the USA, using enhanced colours (or should I say 'colors'- a dead give-away) and modern 'romantic' music and imagery...sickening

fishbiscuits Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > Objecting to faith schools is "intolerant"? > Really? Why support a practice that actively > segregates communities? Precisely- and not just communities- I've worked in several 'faith' schools and they actively discriminate against LGBT by not including those PEOPLE in the Equality section of the Citizenship program.( until September 2020) And, unfortunately fishbiscuits, we are banging our heads up against a brick wall trying to persuade any person of 'faith' to think again because 'faith' is a belief in the totally unknowable....Catch 22 comes to mind- conveniently for them.

Why didn't you accept that vote? In 1975 the politicians were coming out with lies like ' just imagine, everyone in Europe will be driving cars built in the UK' and no one envisaged that the EU would systematically asset-strip the UK over the years culminating in the EU giving Turkey a massive loan 2 years before the referendum, to take the Ford Transit plant away from Southampton with the loss of 600 jobs- and I daresay loans to set up mills for yarns that used to be spun in Yorkshire and are now spun in Turkey. Within 3 years of us joining the EEC 2 of my own family lost their dairy farms in Wiltshire because of cheap imports. Then we had the set-aside fiasco which that arch-remainiac Heseltine benefited greatly from I bet.... Not to mention the FoM of hardened criminals and vicious thugs that are now in the UK protected by the ECHR WE the REAL people have been royally shat upon by the EU

yes if this bunch of trust fund revolutionaries, champagne socialists and has-beens KNEW anything about Canning Town they would NEVER have gone anywhere near there- most of those commuters would be in low paid jobs, have rent to pay (yes- RENT- they cannot afford their own homes- some people can't afford their own home- (let alone a second one) Some of the Extinction Rebellion are being paid ?400 a week to do this....obscene...hopefully they will all return to their Surrey and Berkshire commuter belt homes and leave the actual EXPERTS to sort out the climate thing and fossil fuels....

Is that 'People's' as in Democratic People's republic of Korea (i.e North Korea- note the use of the word 'democratic...ha ha ha ...), or People's Republic of China?...

Yes- it's a pity the older ones didn't act after hearing Joni Mitchell's Big Yellow Taxi, or reading Rachel Carson's Silent Spring, or all the bumph put out by Friends of the Earth over the decades.....but they were too busy breeding and consuming and extending their perfectly usable houses and driving cars around the UK and flying around the world...
