Calm down Sue.

I'm almost at work at 0630. So EDF usage can feature.

It does happen !

I'll knock for you tomorrow morning, you can come with me and see for yourself !

The 0639 from ED stn to LB, we can do an old Watersons number on the way to town - I nominate Country Life "I like to rise when the sun she rises, early in the morning".

Actually, forget the above, it is after all the irrational rage thread...

What time do you 'come to' Sue ?


I was up at 5.15 and working, so 6:30 was a coffee break


Plenty of time to develop irrational rage

Hmmm, well, I don't usually set the alarm before 9am, put it that way :))


I've just been reminded of something that caused me possibly irrational rage at the time ....


For several years I've had this regular saver thing at the bank using monthly direct debit. At the end of each year it comes to a close, I get the interest, then I set up another one for the next year. Nae problem.


THIS year, they said the rules had changed, and they had to ask "a few questions" before I could set up another saver, then they asked me LOADS of questions about my income and expenditure, including stuff like how much a month I spend on groceries :))


FFS! You're my bank, you can see what's going into and coming out of my account, and I'm not asking for a loan, I'm GIVING YOU MONEY EACH MONTH !!!!!


And IF I DON'T GIVE YOU THE MONEY ONE MONTH YOU WILL CLOSE DOWN THE SAVINGS ACCOUNT AND NOT GIVE ME ANY INTEREST! SO YOU'RE HARDLY LIKELY TO LOSE MONEY IF I DON'T PAY UP!!!


Afraid I got quite worked up as these questions kept coming. Poor woman at the other end seemed quite embarrassed, and who can blame her. I just plucked a figure out of the air for my grocery expenditure. GRRRRRRRRR GRRRRRRRR GRRRRRRR


Actually - that's quite rational rage, isn't it?

Please don't trouble yourself to knock for me, KK, you may get a mouthful of irrational rage on the doorstep :))


And from painful experience, people don't take kindly to having the Watersons sung on trains. Somebody once came right the length of a tube carriage in order to ask me to stop :))

Those irritating and attention seeking posts on social media where someone puts a sad face emoji or a comment along the lines of "ONG can't believe A or B just happened", and then half a dozen people jump in saying "hope you're ok? Xx" or such like, and then the initial attention seeker doesn't even reply - so most of us are still non the wiser!

      Centrist politics - why have Tories gone further to the right?

      By Sephiroth · Posted

      Ok. The thread title.    in my view the whole country has moved to the right since Brexit.  Brexit was always going to be the gateway to populism  you have a terrible voting system coupled with dreadful media which cowers almost any original thought. And the whole time you have the media and simpletons saying the U.K. under starmer is now some socialist gulag when starmer and co are largely imitating and implementing Tory policy from last 14 years a complete shitshow with no visible way out - it needs someone who a) has the bravery to face down opponents but crucially b) not be a loony populist    and I can’t see anyone who fits both (perhaps Ed Davey  but thanks to stupid voting system mentioned above he is doomed. The greens have a new charismatic but slightly odd leader but a party that is fundamentally divided by nimby fault lines  and then you have Corbyn and Sultana with usual brand of protest party, who will achieve nothing but pave a way for Tories/reform to take power)    the Tories are obviously demented. Having birthed and nurtured a fantasy like Brexit, it chewed through 5 leaders in almost as many years whilst throwing out or repulsing any sensible Tory.  And now have an absolute narcissistic fantasist as current leader with someone even worse (Jenryck) lined up behind her    so there we have it.  Sleep tight

      In deed, and whatever we think there was great popular support for his more extreme views - feels like history is repeating itself.  However, really interested in the title of the thread.

      Enock Powell certainly was demonised after making a speech  in 1968. In many ways it was out of character. His was a most interesting character and arguably one of the most highly intelligent person to enter parliament. Powell spoke German, French, Italian, Modern Greek, Hindi and Urdu: plus had a reading knowledge of Spanish, Portuguese, Russian, and Welsh. Among classical languages, he knew Ancient Greek, Latin, Hebrew and Aramaic. If, for a moment, one  could set aside any preconceived opinions then one would find his biography absolutely fascinating. Enoch Powell - Wikipedia

      Why is that shocking? It's a fair enough way to remember how to spell her name. It wasn't an analogy. He wasn't comparing the two people concerned or saying they were alike. And Enoch Powell was indeed infamous.
