Blah Blah

No Mahoody, how about you list companies that have given a majority of their share holdings (and therefore ownership) to external investors. How about you also cite the estimated trillions of pounds lost through tax avoidance every year from the moving of profit to the offshore interests of the top earning individuals and corporations. You think the public are idiots clearly. As for your silly 'message' comment, you are in a public forum posting childish hysterical rubbish about a party leader, and others have every right to challenge you on that. You have not started from any position of sensible debate, looking at say the details of any manifesto, so why should anyone treat you like an adult? The UK economy bears no resemblance to that of Venezuela or Greece whatsoever. Any economist would tell you that. Also, plenty of strong economies have nationalised sectors that work very well. You could cite half a dozen countries within the EU alone on that. This addiction to privatisation has been detrimental to certain areas of the UK economy. It has led to price fixing in the energy sector (and bear in mind one of the big six is the FRENCH STATE OWNED energy company) and sectors like transport are still heavily subsidised by the tax payer while those franchisees are making huge profits. This is not a good deal for the public. There is nothing wrong with nationalisation, it is how the sector is run that matters, and in some cases, those foreign state owned energy and transport companies do very nicely exporting their services. Why are we giving contracts to French state owned energy companies? Or Dutch state owned transport companies? We can do that for ourselves surely?

Nope, pension funds invest in the markets, and can and do change where they put their money (part of the game of turning a profit in fact). Most companies do not float most of their shares out to external investors. This is to prevent takeovers. Stop embarrassing yourself, seriously. As for Chavez, is Corbyn proposing to remove diversity from our economy and rely only on the profits of one resource? No he isn't. But what a surprise that you seem to know very little about exactly just what went wrong in Venezeula. A bit like your non existent understaning of the economy of Greece.

Except that isn't true Mahoody. That is not how national debt works. Nor are comparisons to Greece relevant either as she was failing to effectively collect tax at all and had much deeper fundamental economic issues. Labour governments actually have a better record on debt repayment and deficits than Tory ones. There are so many links to this online, and you can google the data for yourself, but the thing to consider is what fuels the debt. Infrastructure and investment is good. Consumer credit is bad. There was a very good explanation of this by Economist Mariana Mazzucato on Thursday's Newsnight. http://www.primeeconomics.org/articles/conservative-budget-deficits-on-average-theyre-twice-the-size-of-labours Having said all of that though, Corbyn's spending spree is going to depend on a number of things going right to even begin to be deliverable. And the danger of it also is that it makes the Tories look relatively prudent, even though they too are promising massive investment through borrowing. The difference is of course, that Corbyn is promising a radical change that breaks the ownership of the economy by a few privileged wealthy barons, and Boris is promising to change nothing. Take your pick which serves you best.

Echoing the points above, how about the BBC stop trying to pass gimmicks for quality journalism.

These guys do everything. https://www.stanleysonline.co.uk/

Mogg was heckled. Not pleasant no, but no-one was tanked up, throwing bottles and cans,or trying to fight with Police. Even saw a few Nazi salutes at the last remain rally, from a DFLA pro-Brexit counter protest. Not that any of those far right hooligans represent leave voters either. Half of them didn't even vote in the referendum, including their muppet figurehead, Stephen Yaxley-Lennon. No doubt they will all turn up for the pro Brexit rally on October 31st though. No doubt there will be arrests.

Is that all you have Uncleglen? Yet more support for hypocrisy over balanced debate?

Most supermarkets sell selection boxes that are bang free. We buy those.

O'Neil was on Australian News yesterday saying XR should be locked up and congratulating the commuters that challenged them. They would be the same people he is calling to riot for a hard Brexit of course. You could not make it up.

Go on, name one.

You are welcome. Younger sibling is a dentist (not in London sadly). At the end of the day, which method you go for is really down to to vanity. Metal braces don't look great, but they get you there cheaper and quicker, and at least everyone knows why you have them. Invisalign spare you that but take longer and cost more. They both equally hurt as much and depending on how much your teeth have to move, require night retainers equally. What I would say though is that if you go down the cosmetic dentist line, find a dentist you really like and trust. Because beyond straight teeth, there is a whole other world for negating the aging of teeth. And there are some very good dentists locally for that, that do not cost the earth.

I think there is lots of good advice here from both sides. If it were me, I would turn the electric off at the fuse box (all of it!). Then I would tighten he screws connecting the wires in the ceiling light. If I still had a problem, then I would call an electrician. I think that is sensible advice on this. Do what you can at no risk, and if that doesn't solve it, call in the experts.

Definitely report it . Why? Because he might knock on the door of someone more vulnerable who will then get short shifted by him. As you said, you have ongoing building works, and builders who will take care of rubbish disposal at the end. This guy was looking to charge you for (probably illegal) dumping of that rubbish. And you should never feel so threatened by a cold caller anyway. Plenty of red flags there.

Metal braces work faster than Invisalign, but you may find you have to wear a night retainer anyway once they are straightened. Both hurt though ;) Invisalign are a little more expensive, but they are hardly noticeable when in.

I have no issue with them and I cycle everywhere. Even had a chat with a guy on an electric sccoter at the lights the other day. Told me his cost ?1800 but they are as cheap as ?350 on some sites. I can absolutely see the benefits of a foldable electric scooter for short distance commuting. They take up hardly any room and have disk braking. Why can't there be a place for them with some guidelines? This guy was wearing a helmet and had lights fitted on his. As with everything, it is down to the user to be safe and responsible around other road users.

It wasn't Tommy Robinson was it? It was a real investigative journalist called Andrew Norfolk. Stop swallowing the cool aid of the far right Uncleglen. And better still, stop posting it here.

This has always been the MO of the far right. They want class war, street brawls, anarchy. For a brief spell, Tommy Robinson deluded himself he could get elected to the EU Parliament, and then played the victim when it didn't happen. And all of them, from him to Hatey Hopkins, are now being funded by alt and far right American Islamaphobic organisations and lauded by the likes of nutjobs like Alex Jones and Ezra Levant, who wouldn't know honest journalism if it hit them in the face. Tommy has that defamation case to look forward to when he gets out as well. Costly business being a rabble rousing liar.

And just to add that anyone in central London today, around Westminster would have seen what despicable thugs follow the likes of Tommy Robinson. Up to 200 hooligans attacked the remain protesters outside Parliament and the press at College Green. These are not people who believe in freedom of speech or difference of opinion. They are boot boys who beat the crap out of anyone with a different view. So Uncleglen, you can go do one with your defence of a rabble rousing thug who today, got just what he has been asking for.

Tommy Robinson, or rather Stephen Yaxley-Lennon hasn't merely highlighted the activities of certain muslims. He has led a crusade to bait gullible hooligans to hate ALL muslims. He does not care about the victims of CSA. He has used them to fuel his real agenda which is a crusade against an entire religion. And yes, why is the vile apologism of Uncleglen still here?

No it isn't.

Can't be a serious post surely? What genuine cat owner would ever take their cats to a public park on a leash? Very bad idea though if serious. Cats are not dogs and become stressed out by unfamiliar environments.

Exactly that. He was prosecuted under his real name, just as he always is. That is why they report it.

As Mrs S says, you will find that your smoke and fire alarm systems have to be mains operated with battery back up in order to pass that required certificate. So you will need an electrician to carry out that work.

There is a precedent on this. A case where a driver killed a cyclist he did not see under the same weather and invisibility conditions. The driver was judged not to blame. I will see if I can find the case.
