I know; it beggars belief but there are several institutions, the BBC for another example, which offer secure long-term employment at inflated salaries paid for out of the public purse, for all those dyed-in-the-wool tories, not to mention various sexual perverts, who are unable to find...

Meanwhile, there is a short news item here about the 'Brexidiots' views on immigration: This too is most informative: Tom

I can't see a dislike attached to that post at my end; nor can I remember making such a choice - I don't understand?? Tom

For me, the IEA is one of a large number of quango-like bodies that serves no useful purpose for the people of the UK, its primary function being to employ tories who are too ugly to be selected as MPs. Frankly, I believe it should be classified as a proscribed organisation. Tom

I cannot imagine any kind of deal that will prevail in parliamentary debate or as a subject matter for a referendum. Tom

When I was little, there was a statue of a man with a beard in my local public park. I asked my dad why he was famous and my dad told me the story of the beginnings of the Labour movement. That man was Keir Hardie and these two infographics illustrate the difference between the decent...

Brilliant analogy 'Woosh'! However, I suspect Netflix's lawyers will have included provision to stymie that contingency in the small print. Tom

This little film clip was made 75 years ago and today, the world is once again under threat from the fascist hordes while the mainstream media, as in the 1930s, demonstrate support for these evil people. I am sick to death of these 'Brexit' proponents, brainwashed from birth by the same media...

Frédéric Bastiat, one of 'Woosh's old college friends, who went on to be something of an expert in economics had this to say about the vile people who rob, steal and defraud their fellow man as their primary method of personal wealth creation: Sounds exactly like the modus operandi of the...

The case for another referendum seems to have grabbed the attention of a much wider audience over recent weeks. I'm happy to go along with that and equally happy to abide by whatever the result, provided the right question(s) is asked. Some commentators have suggested there needs to be three...

Could this be the future? Tom

JCJ said this 3 weeks ago about those self-proclaimed patriots leading the 'Brexit' campaign to divorce the UK from the EU. Tom

That brief, potted history is exactly that which I was given to understand by my mother and her siblings, my aunt and uncle, all born long before partition. I still have kinfolk living in Belfast and elsewhere in the 6 counties plus I have other connections due to my late wife's maternal side...

'The Economist' offers this and I think the headline to their piece suffices: https://www.economist.com/finance-and-economics/2018/07/21/as-inequality-grows-so-does-the-political-influence-of-the-rich Tom

After reading post #33606 from 'gray198', I actually believe that..... I don't know whether what he suffers is treatable but anyone clinging to such narrow-minded and anti-humanitarian views such as professed in post #33606 shouldn't be allowed out of the house unescorted, never mind being...

I have never said that every single person who voted leave is a racist nor have I said that every one of them is a fascist but this I can guarantee - every single racist and every single fascist voted leave! Claro? You need to think about that. Tom

Perhaps then, this crystal gazer isn't far off the mark with his speculation or prediction of how 'Brexit' will manifest itself on day one. no-deal-brexit-day-one-what-happens-economy-transport-nhs-eu-citizens-a8463636.html Tom

Is this man better placed to make a judgement than we lay people? TWEET | From the former Chief of Staff at DExEU. Tom

Sorry 'Woosh' but you have me at a loss with these: I fail to see any relevance to the post I made in any of these comments, indeed, it's as if we are speaking different languages.....a bit like if I say, 'How far is it to the station?....and you answer, 'A quarter to three!' Well done in...

Do you earn your living doing stand-up in clubs? I honestly cannot believe that you are serious or that you expect to be taken seriously with that remark. Tom
