  1. not so sure on that chris. I think a lot of countries will distance themselfs from him even us. Cant imagine him getting an invite to buck palace anytime soon. I think this time old lizzy will make her excuses lolOld Lizzy ! Old Lizzy ! Say what you like the colonies, but I hope you're not disrespecting Her Majesty !
  2. Now, THIS would scare the bejeezus out of anyone ! https://youtu.be/oFMsqrG9RWg
  3. Could they possibly know that it's a very divisive issue, and they're using their over-representation in parliament to make political capital ?
  4. They've been filmed, and seen, carrying knives and hammers - real ones - which is certainly no laughing matter, and lifts this beyond a silly craze. If one jumps out on me, hell look stupid going to A&E with his knife sticking out of his ar5e ! On a serious note, my wife's step mum has a heart condition, and is mortally terrified of clowns, so some of these incidents could have serious consequences.......although it has just given me an idea !
  5. Apparently, this is 'sweeping the nation'..... Anyone seen one yet ? Harmless fun ? Or something more sinister ? http://metro.co.uk/2016/10/10/killer-clown-sightings-mapped-out-across-the-uk-as-craze-continues-to-terrify-6182865/
  6. Yer so dense he's a multi millionaire ( billionaire even ?) and running for power in a position everyone said he could never even get to! Declaring a business (one of his many) bankrupt when it's not working is good business sense! If you have many businesses and some are losing money you don't pump money from the good ones into the bad ones, you close the bad ones and retain more profit. Reducing your tax liability by off setting what you pay against big losses in the past doesn't make him dodgy, that's how their tax system works and many companies do it! If your business made a loss this ta
  7. He's a mean guitar player ! That sounds like a version of "Sad Letter Blues" by the mighty Muddy Waters, early 1940s ?
  8. Anyone else see the debate, or the highlights ? Once the initial mud slinging calmed down, it was much more interesting...... To me, Trump equipped himself very well. He kept his cool, and went for the jugular every chance he got. He handled the 'sex tape' revelations well, and even managed to turn allegations about his tax avoidance back at Clinton, saying that her large donators use exactly the same rules that he does ! It was still 'sound bite politics, but it looks like Trump is back in the game !
  9. Most of the Mexican border is already fenced. Trump just wants to complete it, and make it taller !
  10. Policy has never had anything to do with US campaigns...... The last time I heard an actual policy was when George Bush the elder said "Read my lips - no new taxes !" Those who don't remember what happened shortly afterwards can probably guess... Ever since, presidential hopefuls have steered well clear of anything that could be construed as "detail".........
  11. When I was on holiday, two Thai girls asked me if I wanted to sleep with them - they said it would be like winning the Lottery. And they were right......we had 6 matching balls !
  12. Watched her on Peston, this morning. Shifty, evasive and utterly untrustworthy. How, in Gods name, is she the potential Attorney General ? And only a Baroness thanks to another Corbyn stitch-up !
  13. unpopular with who though???? Trump ain't unpopular that's why he's in the position he's in now, il tell ya he's got them running scared and that's why they're doing their damdest to stop him and they don't care how. If him and Hilary are unpopular what message does it send the rest? They'd be better giving it up. VOTE TRUMP. Each of them is only commanding around 40%, so neither is in a particularly strong position - in a race with only two realistic candidates, you would expect one of them to reach the halfway mark ! 2/3 of Hillary's own supporters admit that they see her as "untrustw
  14. I can't remember an election, here or over there, between two such unpopular candidates. This will be decided by a small number of voters, in a handful of key states. Trump's support has slipped in recent days, but he does have a solid bedrock of support that will probably stay with him, no matter what he does - the same is true of Hillary, so to my mind the race is still there for either of them to lose ! Tonight's debate should produce some real fireworks ! And this debate could well be the real turning point......
  15. The ones who are really worried are the Senators facing close-run elections soon. He's been disowned by Jeb Bush, Mitt Romney and John McCain.......who all wasted millions of dollars in failed Presidential bids. Trump has a chance to fight back tonight, in the second live debate, which will cover subjects including homeland security and terrorism........expect him to load both barrels !
  16. The seemingly untouchable Donald J has caused himself a spot of bother....AGAIN. An old tape has emerged of him making lewd and lecherous remarks about women. This time, however, senior Republicans have rushed to distance themselves from his campaign, some going so far as to call for him to drop out of the Presidential race. Has he finally gone too far ? http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2016/08/03/republican-party-crisis-over-donald-trump-deepens-as-senior-figu/

    Why?

    Read the headline and no more..... I don't support capital punishment, as a rule, but when I hear of crimes like that, I'm coming round......
  18. McGuiness should have been taken out to a dark field and shot years ago. Amazing to think he was guarded by British soldiers in his house during the troubles ....... And not one of them took the chance to slot the obnoxious little f***er !
  19. The good lady BB paid £400 for her little chihuahua X, which I thought was a lot....but she loves the little thing, so she's happy. And if she's happy, she's leaving me alone !
  20. Ive got a hob called giggles ,,,,after his father who is chuckles,, I've also got three very young kit sisters...Blondie, Bingo and Bubbles ! That's what happens when you let the grandkids pick names !
  21. My Beddy Whippet is Dash...for obvious reasons, and the wife has a tiny chihuahua X named Tiny...for equally obvious reasons. My hob is named Leonard.....but that really is a long story !
  22. Trying to use us to put other countries off the idea of leaving. I'd stop all our payments immediately - what are they going to do ? Kick us out ?
  23. Clearly she is a fool, using ridiculous sound bites to attract attention to a misguided cause. If black lives really do matter to them, they should do what they can to help the stricken Haitians.
  24. Haiti is one of the poorest countries in the world. 800+ Haitians were killed by the hurricane, and the rest have lost what few possessions they had, their lives once again devastated by a natural disaster that they couldn't avoid, and are not equipped to cope with. But the midday news was busily reporting residents of Florida had lost electricity and 'cell phone' signal !
