It's the brexit bus all over again! Already watering down one of his big campaign promises and he hasn't even taken office yet, not a great sign!I take it you are not happy with the result bgd, I have been telling you for a while now times are changing. Your complaining he hasn't done enough when he is not even in office yet. You really are a joke! It's the brexit bus all over again!

DO YOU KNOW! ...I can see this turning into a witch hunt and rightly so it might inspire us over here to dig a few out . There's nothing wrong with hanging the evil and corrupt from lamp posts my good man Some day, my friends, the revolution will come, Just like it did in France. And we'll hang them from the lampposts - Then we'll see the ba5tards dance !

In a nutshel..... Handle them regularly and teach them bite inhibition. Once that's done, get yourself a locator collar and get them used to wearing it, so they don't wriggle out of it. Take them somewhere where you have permission, put them down a hole and see what happens. And don't forget to take a good shovel, just in case ! Good luck !

I just had a quick look. I think England will find it tough to score - looks like Scotland have fielded 11 goalkeepers !

I couldn't resist lifting this snippet from the BBC news site. "Mr Giuliani, who has been mentioned as Mr Trump's possible attorney general, was responding to the suggestion that students suffering anxiety over the election result were being offered therapy." (Deep sigh, head in hands !)

Establishment politicians across Europe and America have really got to take a long, hard look in the mirror..... How did a man with no political experience whatsoever, a man derided as 'unfit for office', a man mocked, ridiculed and abused at every opportunity sweep their Old Boy network aside so easily ? How has he campaigned almost as an independent candidate, with large sections of his own party refusing to back him, largely self-funded ? And how, despite these and all the other hurdles, has he not only been elected President, but helped increase his party's hold on Congress ? Bu

This has happened because millions of people have had enough of being told that their opinions are wrong, and have no merit because they disagree with the established 'wisdom'. They have been told that they have no right to hold their opinion, and they should just shut up and do as they're told.......these are the people who have been royally f***ed over - seen their industries laid to waste, their communities destroyed and their futures taken from them. And, in Trump, they believe they have found a man who will help them reverse the decline...... The reaction is that Clinton supporters ar

We just moved back to the front of the queue for a US-UK trade deal....... Marine Le Pen and Geert Wilders are overjoyed, Merkel has AfD breathing down her neck. Trump's victory might have signed the death warrant on the EU.....fingers crossed !

HOLIDAY ! I believe those vulgar colonials go on "vacation".....

Once the polls close, the parties release their own exit poll data. Once sufficient data is released, the result is 'called'......by the news networks.

That's a Toblerone, mate . At least that's what it says on the wrapper !

I think that he will just about shade it....just about. If he doesn't, the America 'establishment',and it's politicians, personified by Clinton, have some very searching questions to ask themselves - Why did Obama's heir apparent - the 'natural successor', a candidate that should have strolled to the White House - struggle to the point where she can't get half of the vote, in a two horse race ? And, more importantly, if Trump loses, how the hell did a candidate derided as "a joke", ridiculed and mocked at every opportunity, come so close.....?

"HILLARY CLINTON FOUNDED ISIS ! She....founded....ISIS. She founded it. She's the founder." Trump could have meant "funded"........it amounts to the same thing !

If there is a problem with liberal lefty views then why isn't anyone, me and you included, redressing that balance? ....because we are derided as dangerous neo-Nazis, if we are anything less than accepting of soppy, left-wing bull5hit !

Does anyone know if kids are asked how they would feel about being adopted by a gay couple ? I'm just thinking that if the child is very young, say 2 or 3, how can they express any form of opinion, let alone an informed opinion ?
-
Would you prefer gay adoptive parents, or an extended stay in care? I know that isn't the case in this particular story, and I agree with what you've posted, but now that gays are allowed to adopt, would the panel prefer a shot at a loving family or roll the dice with another Rotherham? Kids in care with no parents or nobodybto show them love straight or gay isn't natural. You make good points, gentlemen, and put like that, it's difficult to disagree......but I can't escape this feeling that it's just 'wrong' somehow. Difficult to put into words, which isn't normally a problem I have !
-
As I've said, I have no issue with gays....but the idea of them bringing up children makes me uneasy. It's not a "God thing", as I'm an atheist fundamentalist, but it just doesn't strike me as 'natural'....there is no physical way that two men can have a child of their own, so why do we facilitate it, and normalise something that so clearly isn't !
-
I would rather that these children had stayed with the couple who had loved and cared for them for several months, and wanted to adopt them as their own....rather than have them taken away because the foster parents views weren't liberal enough, and then have them barred from fostering ever again ! Yep I agree the kids would have been fine with that couple. Bit I disagree with the couples opinion. If you twisted the situation. Say they had kids that for some reason were taken away from them and offered spend years in care or get adopted by a gay couple would their opinion change ? I think so

After all the recent ructions, a nice civilised discussion might be in order, something nearly all of us will agree on...... How about......GAY ADOPTION ! http://www.standard.co.uk/news/uk/christian-couple-blocked-from-adopting-foster-children-amid-gay-parents-row-a3388456.html

Put me down for the heavyweight division.........! ....unless you've got a division for "over-the-hill, fat ba5tard with the reaction speed of something that recently died"....... ....and 10 minutes between rounds - I get knackered after a short exertion - ask the wife !........... ....and I might need to keep my glasses on, if my opponent stays more than an arm's length away......... .....and no drug testing - I'm on beta blockers. Apart from that, I'll have any one of yous.....! -
Recycling and 'green policies' are some of the biggest rackets going ! We have to separate various items - transparent pink sacks for recycling - provided free, but you have to collect them from the nearest tip, sorry "recycling centre" - transparent so they can check the contents, before they are separated and sold. Black bags for land fill...no money in that, so it's discouraged and you have to buy your own bags... green bin for garden and food waste (the contents are either composted and sold, or used in anaerobic generators and the resulting energy sold). There's a blue box for glass a

I'd love to stay and chat - I do enjoy these little get-togethers - but I've got an early start tomorrow.......... I'm sure you can all manage without me. Cheers lads !
