QUOTE (je suis Charlie @ May 1 2019, 08:26 PM) Yup, kicked out by Labour, disbarred and an overwhelming vote to get rid of her. What happens when you lie. And all over? Doing 41 in a 30 zone. Puts stupidity into a league of its own.

QUOTE (Turin Machine @ May 1 2019, 10:17 PM) So what's the plan Stan? Me? Not sure yet, got a lot of thinking to do about it, it's almost certainly too late to get into another one this season, it's what do I replace it with that's the question. Certainly something I can use easily short handed, perhaps something a bit smaller? More fuel efficient? Anyhoo, the lease on the car runs out soon so decisions there as well. Certainly not going to buy another rangey that for sure. I'll pm you.

Well, that was a kind of 😭 emotional. Been down to yard cleaning out on lockers and stuff, having a last clear out, found a pic in a drawer of Trish, Simon and myself on holiday. Wow, talk about times winged chariot. Really didn't want to walk away and leave her, sitting up on the hard looking forlorn, bought a lump thinking of all the great times we had as a family on her, times that won't come again. No boat will ever even come close to her. Thank you. Hope your new owner loves you as much as we did. 😓

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/D5UTjXOWAAAiSpP.pngThe Brexit Party is now 6/1 on to win the European Elections, and as much as 8/1 on in some places. Nearest rival is Labour at 5/1 against.

Nearest rival is Labour at 5/1 against. It is a fact that they are the only “party” with a clear position. They will garner probably close to every nationalist vote. The Tories are screwed. I reckon if Labour had a clear message they would poll a lot more.

It isn't fair, despite my Twitter feed being inundated with Pro EU propaganda... .. and I didn't think meddling in Elections was good? Oh only good if you think the "right" way...

QUOTE (TallDarkAndHandsome @ May 7 2019, 09:46 PM) Yep. People in general hate being told "what to do" by people that consider themselves "intellectually superior"... it's where all remainers (including you) have got it so badly wrong... Whatever.

When people sound arrogant and all superior it just entrenched opinions, whether they be right or wrong... most people see an #fbpe hashtag and think "w@nker". I honestly don't know whether in or out is right. I can see both points Iof view but I do respect democracy. And b4 you say it... the whole election spending thing and "lies" / propaganda that was part of the original 2016 election applies to both sides.. I remember the government Cameron propaganda paid for by the tax payer through the letter box... Still I see Erdogan in Turkey has taken note. If you lose an election...just have another one...dangerous times chap... if its good enough for us... we can't complain...

The EU has history with this,
"53.4% of Irish voters rejected the Lisbon treaty, against 46.6% who supported it (giving the "No" camp a "sweeping victory"). Yet now the Irish will be asked to vote again. EU officials' behind-doors deal to force a second referendum in Ireland reveals their utter contempt for Irish voters, and for democracy itself. It is an historic sucker punch against the sovereignty of the people.
As soon as the Irish people's ballots were counted in June, their rejection of Lisbon was treated as the "wrong" answer, as if they had been taking part in a multiple-choice maths exam and had failed to work out that 2+2=4. Now, they will be given a chance to sit the exam again, "until [they] come up with the right answer,"

When you refuse to accept election results in "democratic" countries you can't really moan when Erdogan does the same...oh wait.. Verhoftwats can...😂😂😂 https://mobile.twitter.com/guyverhofstadt/s...510836225748992Been received well by the comments....🤣🤣🤣
