    General Election

    D'you know...when I got to the word "opinion'" I thought...'bad news for the country in the opinion of petulant businessmen who perceive a threat (even if only short term) to profits...never complain about increased profits though. Reduced profits usually result in short term cost or corner...

    Best Concerts You've Been To ?

    Lol...I saw Ozzy about 5x & only once was he incoherent when talking (Diary of a Madman tour), but still sang the songs clearly...but clearly pissed...on auto pilot...or dubbed! Lemme was never dubbed...often got the verses wrong & tracks were usually faster than on the studio versions coz Phil...

    Best Concerts You've Been To ?

    Wolvo civic hall...Jameson Raid? They were a great band that only ever remained on the fringe for some reason Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

    General Election

    Every policy is a bribe for someone's vote when it's in a manifesto. This agreement is nothing of the sort - it is a straightforward..."How much will it cost for you to vote to prop up our government?" Imagine the furore if they go to the Russians to ask them to fund the stripping out &...

    Best Concerts You've Been To ?

    The best was Heavy Metal Holocaust at Port Vale. Motorhead & Ozzy Osbornes Blizzard of Ozz, followed by AC/DC with Bon Scott at Birmingham Odeon...both events just RAW music. Rush have always impressed too. Having said that...ask me again tomorrow & the next day etc & you may well get different...

    General Election

    Not only is the taxpayer paying for it - but the majority I suspect would be doing so against their wishes Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

    General Election

    Where have/will they suddenly find £1b from? Does this constitute a ditching of principles (/a u-turn of somesort) somewhere...like favouring NI to serve the Tory party rather than the UK as a whole? Just imagine the outcry had this been done by a Corbyn led Labour gov't. Sent from my SM-G900F...

    So you were plainly wrong in saying landslide predictions were accurate usually? Coz the last 3 major votes have all come up without a landslide Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    We aren't talking about Cameron & Osborne though are we? The Ministers are just the mouthpieces for the civil servants that piece the desired outcomes & strategy together...& you & I will be last to know what any of that really is Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

    So why do we have a hung parliament??? How come we are Brexit-ing? How did Trump win? Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    We cannot be sure that is the reason there have been no wars whatsoever. That's just an opinion of some 'experts'...like the ones that predicted landslide election victories & much more besides. Personally I would put it down more to the fact that virtually every nation has more potent weaponry...

    General Election

    But question yourself...the tough decisions you refer to - are they tough because you think that attacking a.n.other nation is the brave or bold response? Because that might be construed by many as a 'do as I say' attitude. That is not what it seems Corbyn does. He, it appears, listens &...

    Goodbye Grandad

    Sad day, but hope you remembered & indeed found plenty of new & happy memories along the way. Lost both parents in quick succession a couple years ago - the pain never seems to go, but you learn to cope. Atb Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    440m is a very comfortable minority on a global scale. The EU bloc put restrictions on trading outside of the bloc - in itself that creates disparity with other nations & becomes protectionist, discriminative & divisive...the sort of thing that has led to terrorism & wars historically Sent from...

    General Election

    No I think £80k annually is deemed to be a high earner. Not rich. Rich is something well beyond that & it is wealth that is just self-propogating. Some of those rich don't ever work as we know it. They simply talk with advisors on various investments & moving stuff to increase wealth at the...

    The more choices we have the better imo. I think the next election would be fantastic for the country if the outcome was one which resulted in a hung parliament &a short lived liberal government. THAT would shake some of these bastards up to do more work to do right for the masses in manner the...

    I think ALL ministers compromise their principles at various points in their careers in order to gain or sustain their power. Singling out a few is simple bias Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

    London fire

    So she hid...which is kinda the point really. Bet Maggie T would have been another one that would have immediately taken it on as her duty to visit the residents. Doubt Blair would've but I suspect Gordon Brown would have. Even Cameron might well have just done it anyway. Sent from my...
