I’ve told you before, for us a day trip to Roker Sands or Seaburn was like a trip to some foreign, exotic land ! LOL ! Cheers.

I may have told this tale on here before. First time I applied for visas for Australia, my wife was accepted straight away, but I kept getting rejected , and it cost £26 each time . I asked my airline to get me a crew visa, it it also got rejected. So I phoned my son who was a diplomat at the British Consulate in Saudi at the time. He called his Australian counterpart in Dubai who rang me back. I explained the situation to him and he put me on hold. He then asked if I had a middle name, I said no, then he asked me to fax a copy of my passport with my photo. He called me back

“Deny, change the subject, blame your accuser”; classic anti interrogation techniques, maybe Juke was in the Special Forces ? LOL Cheers.

I’d be the ugliest one ever… and there’s some real ugly rug munchers ! Cheers.

Wasn’t she also a Tiller Girl dancer or suchlike ? Cheers.

I think you’d make a better Speaker than that traitorous little dwarf Bercow , and the coward Lynsey Hoyle who allowed himself to be bullied by Labour or “Gorbals Mick” Martin. I see you more as a Betty Boothtoyd, the best Speaker I’m my lifetime. Cheets.

Complete nonsense. You’re in denial. At a Labour manifesto meeting banning cage birds and greyhound racing was discussed but not implemented, I’ve never said we are going to run short of food , I said I was watching farmers tractors circling a food supply facility. It is widely reported in all media that we were down to one weeks gas supply and have had to pay 50 times the price to import gas from Holland to prevent blackouts you on the other hand told a blatant lie and when confronted with the indisputable evidence you DID say it , you won’t admit it. Im going at this

Grebby for Moderator !!!!LOL Cheers.

No sulks or grudges here, you said you couldn’t remember saying something that I quoted you as saying. I provided indisputable proof that you DID say it. Its as easy as that. Maybe you couldn’t remember saying it, but when confronted with the truth maybe holding your hands up would have been the best option. Cheers.

In reply to a post of mine, you said you didn’t remember saying something. I showed you where you said it , yet you’re obfuscating and deflecting instead of just saying I was right; you did say EXACTLY what I said you said. My last reply on this, as the Interviewer would say;” I’ll let the viewers judge and make their own minds up “ ! LOL ! Cheers.

Not the point ; you said you didn’t remember saying it would be great if the nightmare scenario of farms going bust happened …. But you DID say it . It’s here on this thread . Cheers. ..

You posted this on this thread …… exactly as I said Cheers.

As for taxing education I obviously see it very different to you. Both my children were privately educated as is my grandson and I’m nowhere near “extremely wealthy”. In fact I think it’s wrong that people who chose private education for their children are taxed TWICE. They pay tax to the public purse, of which a percentage goes to fund education. These people are not availing themselves of state education and prefer to pay for private education, shouldn’t the have a rebate on their taxes ? Your previous post about it being great that some family farms may go bust because then ordin

We have to have taxes, it’s how they are spent I object to. I remember when VAT was introduced at the behest of the EU. We were told “ don’t worry , it’s a tax on luxury goods, only millionaires buying Rolex watches and Rolls Royce’s will pay it ! That didn’t last long, did it ? Now you pay it on everyday purchases. You pay it on the tax you pay on your petrol ! How on earth can we pay tax on a tax ? Thr EU ordered us to pay 5% VAT on our gas and electric bills. We were promised it would be removed when we had Brexit, has it been ? Has it hell. And of course we all pay

Don’t you fucken start aswell ! LOL ! Cheers.

The decline can be traced back to various points in time; the retreat from East of Suez, the end of WW2 or even the end of WW1, but the timeline I mentioned is where I see the decline personally in my life. Cheers.

I started this thread asking “what is happening to my country ?”. That it is on a downward spiral I’m of no doubt, even Starmer is on record as saying things will get worse. Whos to blame for this ? Well, if I ran a country and it was going bankrupt, I’d be to blame ! So, who runs the UK ? Well, , nominally, it’s the government, ( I say “nominally” because someone is bound to say it’s not the government, it’s the Royals/ Establishment/Deepstate/ WEF/ Masons/Illuminatti, take your pick.), but it’s the government that makes the rules. The Tory’s have overseen 14 years of decl

I wouldn’t know I sit in my middle class house in its middle class estate and don’t mix with the lower class proletariat ! PMSL ! Cheers.

Once again, I’ve never said we could, or should, use their, or anyone else’s, system. You inferred I’m middle class, I consider myself working class, as I’ve worked all my life until I retired. But I’m not a great fan of the class system; you can change or improve your financial status but I don’t think you can change your class status The “upper class “ can be skint and a billionaire can still be “working class” . As for the UAE, actual Emirate’es are a minority in their own country but are well taken care of with free housing, health, pensions, etc. The countries wealth is

I’m working class mate; worked all my life. Cheers.

My missus will be there in march visiting the grandson, I’m already writing a list of tax free goodies I want. Naughty , right wing, capitalist, tax avoiding boy that I am ! LOL ! Cheers.

I’m not denying anything ! I’m simply saying that tax rates raised above a certain level results in less tax revenue. Cheers.

I was reading dogs for sale notices in a vets window one time in Tokaroa, NZ, and there was an ad for government pest controllers. It was to cull possum, you were paid by tail count, but it was for setting 1080 poison bait stations in the forestry A great book to read about deer, pig , goat cullers in NZ is “A Good Keen Man”, by Barry Crump. He was the real life inspiration for Crocodile Dundee. Cheers.

You remind me of this! LOL ! Cheers.

Exactly ! Crackdown on the fraud and loopholes; don’t raise taxes to an unacceptable limit and deter investment and expansion. As for the oil windfall tax of, I think it is 95%, but I could be wrong, a major oil company recently pulled out of the North Sea and invested in the Mexican gulf because it simply wasn’t profitable anymore. So, lost tax revenue, lost jobs . Cheers.
