In my youth I belonged to an extreme left wing group in a very working class area and there were teachers in the group that used to allow certain pupils to skip their lessons to go and leaflet other local schools for recruitment....as far as I was concerned these teachers were undermining the education of these pupils who had few prospects under the comprehensive system in London anyway..i.e. the left wing were actively preventing the working class from improving themselves (after all it was a lefty public school Labour politician Tony Crosland who did for them in the first place)

I promptly left this ridiculous organisation as it was obvious that the absolute aim of the left was to keep the working classes in their place and uneducated so that they can be manipulated...and that is what has happened.

My mother was a staunch Labour supporter from West Ham territory- but when Enoch Powell made his rivers of blood speech she agreed with him , and became a Tory overnight, because, living in the thick of 2 parallel cultures...yes they were and still are parallel, she could see where things were headed. I think Enoch was proved right, and the EU made the UK powerless to prevent it

Oh - ok, but its maybe more relevant today, now that he's talking about a Brexit Government.


What are you saying never happened - the letter seems genuine.


Also I have just emailed someone I know who was at DC with him and he says NF had pretty strong views on just about everything then.


And I've just noticed his initials are NF :)

Farage's behaviour over the last 48 hours suggests serious character flaws: not showing up for the final debate in favour of having dinner with his son, and last night apparently assuming defeat straight away. Hope no one feels they have to offer him any post-EU role that requires real leadership.

Considering how fast the official Leave campaign sidelined him, I doubt that will happen. I doubt he will get any role at all.

    • You could try asking  ChatGPT? It recently saved me hours when I was looking to see if I was on the cheapest energy tariff for my usage, and gave me other very useful relevant  information.
    • Yes it would be easier, and I give a lot to the hospice shops, but for various reasons there are certain things I prefer to give to Oxfam. However I might go through the books and see if some could be donated more locally. I think in any charity shop staffed by volunteers, the reception you get must depend on the member of staff. The Oxfam bookshop have always been very happy when I've taken shedloads of books there in the past. On the other hand, I've taken things to the hospice shop that were received very grumpily when they hadn't even looked in the bag or asked what they were. It felt like I was being a nuisance and causing them more work. I don't remember a previous thread on here  about the Oxfam shop and parking, but that's possibly because it wasn't relevant to me at the time.
    • The other side of P13 drivers being risk averse is that I  have been on P13s at night that speeded (?sped?) down Underhill Road so fast I seriously thought they might crash.
    • Some P13 drivers appear very risk averse. I live in Underhill and on that road drivers are forced to back away, often considerable distances, from buses to allow them to pass, even when the bus has an immediate space it could back into. The driver at the time said that buses 'weren't allowed to back'. So reports of cars 'blocking' P13s might mean simply that the car was legally parked but the road too narrow,or the bus driver not prepared to risk advancing. NB some P13 drivers are both skilled and courteous, but not all.
