After all the news coverage this week of this problem, and not intending to inflame anyone or the situation, I have to say I think the strikers are wrong


Let me explain,


it isn't because I think protectionism is a problem

I don't even think the issue of foreign companies coming here is a problem


No far from it


I actually think their basic principle of 'British jobs for British people' is totally wrong.


However there is a solution and nature provided it this week all by herself when she closed off the Severn bridge with chunks of Ice on it.


I think the principle should well be "ENGLISH jobs for ENGLISH people" and that we need to land mine the Severn Bridge, send the national guard up to Hadrian's Wall and ensure that we totally close our borders down to anyone who wasn't born within the sound of bow-bells


Now of course I could be totally wrong with this idea, but am interested in starting a lively discussion

I remember the last 3.......the 3rd ago just because the powercuts were great (and West Ham had to play Hereford in the cup in a midweek cup game during the day so we all bunked off to go).......I was a student during the next, so protested vigorously from my ivory tower and then lost my job and had massive negative equity in the one you don't think happened.....;-)

Nope - prevailing winds blow the sounds firmy eastward...which is why all the working class ends of many British cities are by aned large towards the east...keep the smelly breweries/tanneries, their workers and associated stink away from the poshes

I miss the smell of breweries - I lived near one in Cork and when I used to go to Sheffield regularly, the Wards brewery on Eccie Rd was a good 'un. It's flats now. Inevitably


Sorry - got carried away with nostalgia there

I thought not quids. Just yesterday someone was saying that they were born in the sound of the bells (at St Thomas'), and IO thought it couldn't be right.


Personally I am relieved, as our offspring is due to be born at Tommy's, and I don't want some little cockney thug embarrassing me when I'm trying to enjoy a beer in East Dulwich!

No problem Spartacus, with my expert knowledge I could have it done in about a year. This is how we'll do it.


Phase one:

Firstly we'll need an enslaved work force to build the 20 metre high blockwork wall to keep the McScoundrals at bay and to do this we should use forced Welsh labour and any who don't die during the works can be added to the concrete mix or be fed to the tarten turds.


Phase two:

Empty all the Protostant Orangemen from Edinburgh to construct pillboxes along the west coast to keep the bog trotters from our shore. There'll be no risk of survivors seeing as the Scots are known to drink the blood of their dead.


Phase three:

Set demolitions along the Severn bridge. You know what happens next.


Phase four:

Introduce Anthrax to the Isle of Mann because it's better to be safe than sorry.


Phase five:

Retake the United states.


All of the above is purely tongue in cheek, Unless..........

Bit extreme BBW however I do like Phase 5, afterr all if we retake America then we can control wall street and stop the recent "credit crash bore" from happening again - alnong with that we can also send American Imports back like 'Mickey Mouse' 'Fast Food' and 'ugly gas guzzling cars from Ford'


I have to question, there seems to be strong Anti-Welsh comments on here... is it just their accent or is there more to it?


If the ideas here are followed, and we do cut wales off from the mainland, then would we have to open our borders to "policial aslyum seeking sheep" who are scared by the return of all the welshmen ??? :-S

I fear they will get very excitable next weekend. No good can come of this. Happiness is not a natural state for the Welshman. Celtic gloom is more the thing.


Who else has to pay a toll to drive back into their own country?

      Oh David / Is David Lammy Toast?

      By malumbu · Posted

      The current wave of xenophobia is due to powerful/influential people stirring up hatred.  It;'s what happened in the past, think 1930s Germany.  It seems to be even easier now as so many get their information from social media, whether it is right or wrong.  The media seeking so called balance will bring some nutter on, they don't then bring a nutter on to counteract that. They now seem to turn to Reform at the first opportunity. So your life is 'shite', let;s blame someone else.  Whilst sounding a bit like a Tory, taking some ownership/personal responsibility would be a start.  There are some situations where that may be more challenging, in deindustrialised 'left behind' wasteland we can't all get on our bikes and find work.  But I loathe how it is now popular to blame those of us from relatively modest backgrounds, like me, who did see education and knowledge as a way to self improve. Now we are seen by some as smug liberals......

      Dell Autos is closing tomorrow

      Kwik Fit buggered up an A/C leak diagnosis for me (saying there wasn't one, when there was) and sold a regas. The vehicle had to be taken to an A/C specialist for condensor replacement and a further regas. Not impressed.

      Yes, these are all good points. I agree with you, that division has led us down dangerous paths in the past. And I deplore any kind of racism (as I think you probably know).  But I feel that a lot of the current wave of xenophobia we're witnessing is actually more about a general malaise and discontent. I know non-white people around here who are surprisingly vocal about immigrants - legal or otherwise. I think this feeling transcends skin colour for a lot of people and isn't as simple as, say, the Jew hatred of the 1930s or the Irish and Black racism that we saw laterally. I think people feel ignored and looked down upon.  What you don't realise, Sephiroth, is that I actually agree with a lot of what you're saying. I just think that looking down on people because of their voting history and opinions is self-defeating. And that's where Labour's getting it wrong and Reform is reaping the rewards.

      The economy, a sensible debate in advance of the budget

      By malumbu · Posted

      @Sephiroth you made some interesting points on the economy, on the Lammy thread. Thought it worth broadening the discussion. Reeves (irrespective of her financial competence) clearly was too downbeat on things when Labour came into power. But could there have been more honesty on the liklihood of taxes going up (which they have done, and will do in any case due to the freezing of personal allowances).  It may have been a silly commitment not to do this, but were you damned if you do and damned if you don't?
