  1. Not only that, but it’s been revealed that if they are “detained “ for over 12 months, they are allowed to work, and this is being changed to 6 months, and if they work they can claim asylum as working here gives them more rights !!! Cheers.
  2. Just watched Farage, he showed Sunak saying a year ago that the new law wouldn’t allow anyone entering the UK illegally to claim asylum. Then he showed Cleverly and the Permanent Secretary today being asked what has happened to the illegals and they said”they are in the asylum process system” ! Sunak telling blatant lies and Cleverly and the Home Office ignoring the Illegal Immigrants Act. Cheets.
  3. I’m glad you think West Ham are a “big club”, I always have…..we just need to convince Wilf now ! LOL ! Cheers.
  4. Hi mate, as I’ve said before, I’ve a great interest in, but extremely limited knowledge of, world economics; I can only speculate on the information I get from what’s out there. As for BRICS, it seems to me to be a very loose currency alignment between Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa. Some countries align their currencies with the USD$, like Saudi Arabia, but an awful lot don’t, like the Euro and the British pound, which float on the open market. It doesn’t really matter if BRICS currency becomes more popular than the USD$, China will still have to sell its goods to
  5. Typp always liked a beddy type I had, and he was judging a show one day and I entered her. Sure enough, he gave her first place, then his missus stomped into the ring and gave him a bollocking and demanded he give her mates whippet first place and my bitch second…. And he did !!! I liked him as a character, he invited me for a day on his permission near Brought or Shap, but I was abroad and never got to take him up on it. Cheers.
  6. Was that at the Fox pub on the a66 near scotch corner ? I think that was the last time I saw Typp, Rose, his missus had a nice whippet with her. Cheers.
  7. Chipper was another character, I met him many times. The characters in the game seem to be dying out. Cheers.
  8. Newcastle wanted him but City wanted £7 million loan fee for the rest of the season and Newcastle to pay his full wages, with no option to buy. I think they would have went for it if there had been an option to buy, but decided it wasn’t worth it just to be back at square one in the summer and still needing a new midfielder. Cheers.
  9. Typp told me that the GSD had wolf in it, but much as I liked him, he could tell a tale or two ! Mind you, I’m sure the last litter he bred was standard poodle x greyhound, so who knows what he bred in the past. I disagreed with him on a few things, but it was always interesting talking to him. Cheers.
  10. My protege mC can be Clint Walker, fine figure of a man ! LOL ! Cheers.
  11. I’ve got Wilfy down as Donald Sutherland. Cheers.
  12. Only if I can be Lee Marvin ! LOL ! Cheers.
  13. Fight for your country ? Too bloody right! This would be me, Stiffy and the THL Volunteers ! Cheers.
  14. I don’t know anything about it. I never understood the US sub-prime mortgage crash or the Banking crises. I think I understand the Gold Standard and think it’s a good thing. As for BRICS, I feel it’s just another currency collective, much like the Euro but possibly bigger, but not a real threat to the US dollar. But I’m way, way out of my depth with monetary policy, I bought bank shares when they were over £11 a share, on the advice of a broker, and they are now worth about 50p a share ! LOL ! Cheers.
  15. “The best place to hide is in open sight….” Chartpolskis spooks handbook. Cheers.
  16. I always thought the “deep state” , in the UK at least, were the Permanent Secretaries, who stay in place whilst their erstwhile bosses , the governments Ministers of State and Secretaries of State are transient. Also, possible members of the “deep state are the Heads of Departments in the Civil Service, and the Heads of the various Security Services; MI5, MI6, GCHQ, MI, etc. I think these are the real decision makers, governments and MP’s are, as I said , transient. Im not so sure the militaries Chiefs of Staff and the Heads of the various Police Forces and the judiciary are consid
  17. I heard they were Newcastle supporters who still hadn’t made it home since Newcastle beat Sunderland in the Cup ??? Cheers.
  18. Farmers in Holland are also protesting. The government has told them to get rid of something like 50% of their cattle and to give up so much growing and re wild the fields in the drive to net zero. Cheers.
  19. As long as they avoid Hartlepool they should be ok……… Cheers.
  20. “Diatribe” is a great word , isn’t it ? Please feel free to plagiarise my posts, I consider it an honour ! If I go to my grave knowing I have, in some small way, improved the vocabulary of my peers on here, I’ll die a happy man ! Just joking mate Cheers.
  21. Let’s clear up this “diesel mechanic “ thing. In a post on another thread I said how I left school and was given an apprenticeship with an engineering firm as a diesel mechanic but was was lucky enough to have a boss who saw something in me and pushed my career in a different direction with me ending up with qualifications in engineering and all three jobs I’ve had before retiring were in engineers positions, including my final job as an engineering supervisor for one of the worlds largest airlines were I worked for over twenty years. I also was employed by Lockheed Aircraft and seco
  22. Yeah, Snap On were popular but I also liked Sthalwhille. Cheers.
  23. No, I spent most of my working life in the aircraft/airline industry. Cheers.
  24. Let me refute some of that . I most certainly do not think myself above anyone, you on the other hand, appear to have a chip on your shoulder evidenced by your bitterness towards others you think of as being in a different class. I don’t think I’ve ever described myself as a mechanic, I may have, but I’m a qualified engineer with qualifications in mechanical, electrical, electronic and hydraulic disciplines. But what does my profession have to do with who I meet and converse with ? As for the rest of your diatribe, where did I accuse you of anything ? I said PEOPLE I HAVE MET WH
