  1. Nationalised water and rail,free social care for the elderly, free University tuition, free prescriptions, community buy outs of huge estates, an emphasis on affordable social housing. That's a pretty left agenda. If you are really interested, Google the top 100 achievements of the SNP. On the down side they are no friend of fieldsports and a bit dodgy on party finances. If Scottish Labour come up with a working class friendly manifesto, I'll vote for them.
  2. I don't believe in multiculturalism. We only need to look, at Rochdale and Rotherham to knock that idea on the head. It's fair to say I've got an authoritarian streak. It's not politically correct to say it, but if you take that Venice experience I was on about, I don't see why I should have to put up with stone age values. People who want to dress or behave like that should be challenged. It's not acceptable.
  3. Personally cant stand the bloke but one of the most gifted boxers I've ever seen.
  4. I live in Scotland mate. The last twenty years I've voted SNP.
  5. Which greek islands do you recommend? I've been to the main ones, but I fancy an island less touristy. Is it possible to get an island with a way of life like Greece was years ago?
  6. What does Naz eat? More like what doesn't he eat? I can't understand supteme athletes letting themselves go like that.
  7. Our working class friend Thatcher the milk snatcher was a great supporter of free movement. So was Bliar.
  8. I haven't voted Labour for over 20 years mate. I am old Labour,not New Labour. I have zero confidence in Starmer.
  9. I don't think escalating the war in Ukraine into a world war involving America and Russia is a great idea. The yanks are funding Ukraine big time. Agree about Jack Johnston, he was Ali's inspiration. To spur Ali on, his trainer Boudini Brown used to shout: "Jack Johnston in the room!"
  10. I think you will find it was the tories which took us into Europe and allowed over 3 million EU nationals into the country. The tories which allowed a million immigrants in last year. The tories which refuse to build council houses. The tories which have under_ invested in public services and the tories which ran down the number of staff dealing with asylum seekers so that people are in the system for years. It's the tories also which dump asylum seekers in the poorest areas of the country. Areas which are already on the front line of poverty and deprivation.
  11. Yes,I agree with you. He was no saint and he talked crap at times. He was flawed like the rest of us. He was a c**t to both Ernie Terrel and smoking Joe,and,according to a new biography,I havent read,he did a lot of bed hopping with white women. Who cares? We are all grown ups,we know the image and the proclamations are never the same as the private individual.He still remains a major part of my life and memories,as he does to probably millions of others.
  12. Before Ali, boxers, especially black boxers, were expected to humbly thank their manager and their promoter and then be quiet. And then came Ali, outspoken,funny, entertaining,political, apparently invincible in the ring and unafraid of anything. He wasn't afraid of the terrifying American establishment or racists with guns. He said what we all felt: that the Vietnam war was unjust and America was acting like a bullying terrorist nation. He said he was prepared to die rather than murder brown people like himself thousands of miles away... people who had never done him any harm. I thin
  13. I think religious clothing is just medieval bollocks, particularly burqas and hijabs. A few years ago I was in Venice. An Asian couple came down for breakfast. He may as well have had her on a chain. She had a mask of some sort on and darent look at anybody else. She sat with her head down waiting for him to bring her food from the buffet rather than get it herself. She had an air of a whipped dog. Really pissed me off. In a fit of right wing/ fascist/ non Liberal anger lol, I felt like kicking his arse and taking her mask off. Religious clothing takes us all back to the middle age
  14. People still buy houses right next to the shore. They just don't believe that within 50 years their house is going to be under water. People my age have seen climate change ..without doubt. The stats back up what we've seen.
  15. UK News is featuring this big-time. I guess its going to be awesome. Sounds a bit mental, but I love a good storm. I really enjoy walking in them. I live near a shoreline, so we occasionally get some storm force winds...gets the endorphins or adrenalin or something going. Hurricanes I would avoid though. Stay safe.
  16. There's loads on YouTube if you like this sort of humour.

    Didn't know the clove oil method. Lime is lethal. Sprinkle some on grass and worms appear on the surface as if by magic. Useful for fishing.

    That .could have been curtains for him if he was found out. And you would never have been born

    It was easily available in the 50s and 60s. From memory it was a pesticide. But unscrupulous gentlemen would use it as a way of catching salmon. When placed in a pool it deprived fish of oxygen and they would float to the surface. The flesh didn't seem to be affected because the carcases were sold to fishmongers. The trouble was it killed everything in a river. It was common to see large stretches of river with dead or dying fish. Better off banned. Especially these days when salmon are much scarcer. I did hear tell of miners who would nick explosives from work and use them as a way of
  20. Even some vets reckon boosters are a con. Try telling that to my Mrs. Some reckon vaccinating a pregnant bitch gives pups immunity.
  21. I am almost certain it was her. I think it was a discussion on the radio. I can remember both me and the Mrs being speechless at her statement. There was a stink about it and she apologised. It seems to have disappeared from the Internet. Conspiracy theorists please discuss.
  22. That's who I thought it was. But when I trawled her stuff on tinternet, she is not shy in linking muslim men with abuse. Maybe she changed her mind after looking at the mounting evidence against Muslim men. She is definitely very outspoken about the rapists now.
  23. No. Not her Mack. I can't find the woman online. I will keep trying.
