The only people who 'need retiring' are those who would see others retired on grounds of their AGE.


This is because judging people on a characteristic which no-one can control and which in real terms has no bearing apart from perhaps a physical one (looks/strength) is irrational and prejudice.

What's next ? A thread on which ethnic minorities shall we lynch / sexual orientation bashing ?


Basic blind discrimination.


Next tell me the youngest in society add the MOST value.


This society, on the whole, automatically discards old people as irrelevant and superfluous. Our loss IMO.


This reminds me of the newsreader (Moira Stewart ?) who was 'retired' or released because she apparently didn't look 'fresh' enough.


Sick.

May Death Be Your Santa Claus !!


p.s. Well not actually "Death" but it is a Mott tune and it is (almost) topical.


p.p.s. Not that I'm a fellow fan but I did note the "Honaloochie"

Yes computershorty, the long winded lottery draws presenters, but whoever it is who shouts in that hysterical high

pitched voice, should go

Also what is odd, is how comes they know instantly,how many times a certain number has been drawn and what charity

will benifit.

I,ve heard of speed reading, but fact finding too,sounds scripted to me, Hm.

Maybe the numbers are picked by computer, and the whole ball thing is just for show,to make sure the balls come up the way they want, they are magnetic, thats why they wear gloves.

Where are all these raffle winners too..All odd .

Oh yes Ridgely, I,m not an ageist, some of the young ones should go too, Its more the repetative songs, that we hear on

every show they go on.

Like the films that are on a loop, Plain boredom really

We have got the X-factor on for a few more years yet, Just Groundhog day feeling thats all.

With regards to repetitive songs/people and particularly during the Christmas (selling) period. Is anyone struck (and no doubt not for the first time) how much utter toss is being produced in the name of the Christmas period. Beginning with all these totally banal and empty meaningless shite churned out by the likes of X-Factorites and High School Musically Challenged but in addition, even some of the more established artists, Elaine Page, that Barryman, Bette Midler, and even Annie Lennox.


I had a moment this morning after watching 3 minutes of these non-stop Christmas adverts and began to really and truly wonder what the feck has happened to the human race... this has to be the start of the end, The Apocalypse must be nigh!

    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
    • CPR Dave, attendance records are available on Southwark's website. Maggie Browning has attended 100% of meetings. Jon Hartley has attended 65%.
    • I do hope NOT, wouldn't trust Farage as far as I could throw him, Starmer & co.  He's backed by GB News which focus's predominantly on immigration while the BBC focus predominantly on the Israel - Gazza conflict.   
    • Everyone gets the point that Corbynites try to make with the "total number of votes cast" statistic, it's just a specious one.  In 2017, Corbyn's Labour got fewer votes than May's Tories (both the percentage of votes and aggregate number of votes). In 2019, Corbyn's Labour fewer votes than Johnson's Tories (both the percentage of votes and aggregate number of votes); and he managed to drop 2.7 million votes or 6.9% of vote share between the two elections. I repeat, he got trounced by Boris F***ing Johnson and the Tories after the Brexit omnishambles. It is not true that a "fairer" electoral system would have seen Labour beat the Tories: Labour simply got fewer votes than the Tories. Corbyn lost twice. There is no metric by which he won the general election. His failure to win was a disaster for the UK, and let Johnson and Truss and Sunak into office. Corbynites have to let go of this delusion that Corbyn but really won somehow if you squint in a certain way. It is completely irrelevant that Labour under Corbyn got more votes than Labour under Starmer. It is like saying Hull City was more successful in its 2014 FA Cup Final than Chelsea was in its 2018 FA Cup Final, because Hull scored 2 goals when Chelsea only scored 1. But guess what - Chelsea won its game and Hull City lost. Corbyn's fans turned out to vote for him - but an even larger group of people who found him repellant were motivated enough to show up and vote Tory.
