Scrounger? Difficult one but I think once you have gone say 2 generations without anyone in the family contributing rather than taking from the system, you should be able categorise them as congenital wasters. |
Privileged Would you say attending a grammar school helped you get out of that environment? The problem today is that people are born on rough estates, attend shit local schools, and get stuck there. It seems to be it's those who get an unusual opportunity, I guess grammar school counted as that in ye olden days, those that have a natural talent, or unusually supportive parents that make it out. |
Yes. Grammar schools take the brighter away from the influence of the stabby thick types.
I knew twins who got split at 13+, one in my class at the grammar, one stayed at the secondary. Guess how they progressed in life. ____________________ TZR250 2MA road, TZR250 1KT road, TZR250 2MA race, TDR250, YZF-750R Boost colours.

Mrs May has rejected it. Good to see she's still doing the right thing:
"Theresa May has effectively ruled out Labour’s ideas for a compromise Brexit plan, shutting off another potential route to a deal as business groups warned that with less than 50 days to go the departure process was entering the “emergency zone”.
The prime minister’s formal response to Jeremy Corbyn’s proposal, in a letter to the Labour leader, stressed her objections to keeping the UK in some form of customs union, saying this would prevent the UK making its own trade deals." (Guradian) |
So the people elected to run the country, don’t obey to the ones who weren’t?
Err? Yep. That’s how it works. ____________________ TZR250 2MA road, TZR250 1KT road, TZR250 2MA race, TDR250, YZF-750R Boost colours.

It will be interesting to see if it does. It will also be interesting to see if those prepared to vote for a single issue party are divided between Farage and UKIP/YL.
I can see the grey vote going to Farage and the 'I'm not a racist but...' vote going to UKIP/YL on the back of his anti-Islam stance. The votes will effectively cancel each other out leading to the Tories getting back into power without a majority.

Anybody else here not bothering to watch the news on Brexit until the end of March, because anything said between now and then is meaningless posturing on the part of us and the EU?
Nothing of significance will happen between now and then, and it will all take place with hours to go.... ____________________ Now - Speed Triple, old ratty GS550, GSXR750M

Do you not think leave voters who feel let down by both Labour and the Tories will jump ship? I won't vote for either of the top two parties until massive personnel changes occur.
Faith in politicians is at an all time low from what I remember in my lifetime, a party which listens to the people rather than doing what it wants, could do very well in this environment.
Over 15,000 have signed up in less than 24 hours, they haven't even got the social media accounts properly setup yet. I only heard of it this morning. ____________________ TZR250 2MA road, TZR250 1KT road, TZR250 2MA race, TDR250, YZF-750R Boost colours.

I don't think most Labour and Tory voters will jump ship to a one-issue party because both major parties will push the view that other things matter, not just Brexit.
Those that do however will cancel each other's votes out unless the Brexit-friendly parties agree to not stand against each other, share the vote and enter into a 3-way coalition with the Tories. ____________________ Now - Speed Triple, old ratty GS550, GSXR750M

Quite. Also, we were warned that this sort of thing might happen. If people didn't bother to read the government's "referendum leaflet", then that's up to them, and they should not imply "no-one knew". We were very in fact well informed.

The simplest way to look at it is the oranges scenario. We currently import most of ours from Spain. When we leave, they will be more expensive because a tariff will be imposed and it will take them longer to get to market. This is indisputable.
Now, Israel also grows oranges, and it can be argued that we simply import Israeli oranges instead. Fine, except that the cost of transporting them from Israel will be borne by the consumer. Again this is indisputable.
Either way, our oranges will cost more. This model can be applied to all goods we currently import from the EU. Regardless of the cost of cars etc, if our grocery bills go up by, say, 5%, we will be poorer or we will need wage rises of 5% to compensate. Will an employer simply up our wages by 5% without a corresponding increase in productivity? Will it chuff....
When we become poorer there will be less money in our economy to spend on other goods, leading to a downward spiral.
If we had enough available and accessible land to grow food for our population this could be a good thing because it would stimulate the home market. Trouble is, we haven't. This means we will continue to import food....
This isn't 'project fear' at play Mpg before you suggest that it is.... ____________________ Now - Speed Triple, old ratty GS550, GSXR750M

It's just a deterrent to keep the main two parties from sabotaging a proper Brexit. So long as a decent proportion of the voters keep showing as eating into their polling figures, the main parties will be a bit more cautious in pushing their own agenda, over the democratic will of the voters.
Personally I expect it to take over from UKIP, now they've been tainted with the shitty race card stick. ____________________ TZR250 2MA road, TZR250 1KT road, TZR250 2MA race, TDR250, YZF-750R Boost colours.
