  1. Diane Abbott said on the news last night that "he's going nowhere". A pretty good summing up of the situation, I reckon !
  2. There's a bonfire at the local mosque tonight................................ don't tell them, though - I want it to be a surprise !
  3. I saw it on my local news (BBC Look East), but i haven't seen it on the national's, probably in the hope that they can be quietly shipped out, before the 5hit hits the fan !
  4. I'm working on clamping the drill down and using the locking trigger - both hands free !!
  5. Brings to mind a trailer for that God-awful 'Citizen Khan' recently. His neighbour (a white fella) says ' Welcome back. How was Pakistan ?' Khan replies ' Just like Birmingham, but not as many Pakistani's !'
  6. Or we could ban those who want banning banned ................. (etc, etc)
  7. Agreed ! RWS Super H-point the right way round.
  8. You could always get 1/2 an adult sheep for around 40 quid, Gaz. Give me mutton over lamb any day.
  9. Gentlemen, you are both absolutely correct. A wonderful example of there being 'lies, damned lies and government statistics'. The published figures are for EU migrants, from the 10 newest members only, and, as stated, show a net financial gain to the country of £5 billion since 2004. BUT if you were to read further into the same report, you would see that ALL migration from 1995 - 2011 shows a net financial LOSS of £114 biilion .....................
  10. Are the people who buy fireworks in the majority..... ? i'd say the people that enjoy them are..... Maybe, but that wasn't the question - the OP refers to people who buy fireworks
  11. Are the people who buy fireworks in the majority..... ?
  12. As well as Bonfire Night (Bonfire month in some areas !), they are popular additions to many parties, Christmas celebrations, and the festivals of Diwali and Chinese New Year. But,in these safety-obsessed times, is it reasonable allow the sale of £40 million worth of explosives to rank amateurs ? The last available figures show that there are around 1,000 injuries caused by fireworks annually. 10 people will be permanently blinded. 4 people have already been killed in firework accidents this year. There are already reports of fireworks being used as weapons against police. They ter
  13. It's not just the politicians that are foreigners, mate .........................
  14. Bengali? With a name like Luftur Rahman ?
  15. Among other allegations, some grants were given to groups who hadn't applied for them ! http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/politics/local-elections/11207299/Tower-Hamlets-damning-report-lays-bare-cronyism-and-misuse-of-public-money.html
  16. All round yours for Sunday dinner, mate ?
  17. Libyan soldiers training in the UK have been sent home early, following a series of serious allegations, including the sexual assault of a woman, and the separate rape of a man on Sunday, in Cambridge. More than 300 Libyans had been based at Bassingbourn Barracks, as part of a G8 initiative to promote stability in Libya, following the overthrow of Colonel Gadaffi. The soldiers were due to train here until the end of November, but their stay has been curtailed, and future secondments are now in doubt. The Libyans are expected to be returned home in the next few days, while the MOD has a
  18. I can't wait, either ! Do you wan to share a taxi to the hotel............ ?
  19. Well done, mate ! I'm hoping to catch my first one this year. Saved up for a few lures, spinners and a cheap spinning rod. Any tips anyone ?
  20. 50% of 10% of the eligible electorate ?? How is anyone allowed to hold office, and how can they conscienably do so, when they only have the backing of 1 in 20 people ??????.......... it beggars belief ! Shameless, self-serving, pocket-lining crooks, the lot of them .
  21. I'm not being mean - they'll bother us for another 3 or 4 days yet. you'd think they'd never been locked in a cellar before.......
  22. Not a bad night's work this year. £17.50 in cash, 6 bags of Haribo, loads of Fruit Pastilles, 10 Curly Wurly's and a bag of midget gems. I must rob the Paki shop more often !! Just doing my bit for community spirit.
  23. Last night our Tesco is doing BOGOF they've got that many left ! I always make one for the grandkids - took it over last night. Love seeing their little faces.......... I just have to make do with pumpkin chilli soup and a great slab of pumpkin cake that will both be gone by tonight. Hey ho !
  24. I have one on whatever jacket/jumper I'm wearing and one on the car's rear-view, next to the Help for Heroes emblem. (I've also got a 'Support the IDF' wristband, but that's just to irritate the local muslims !)
