Rivers of Blood speech pt2. Been waiting for the first rivers of blood for 50 years now. Glad to see some "You are all going to die!" from both sides of the debate. :lol: Your demonising of the foreigner just doesnt wash with me because I am not some "Insel Affe" who hasnt been o...

and you give a flippant reply, completely unrelated to the question. Not at all. This demonstrates that Merkel can act for "the greater good" rather than with the selfish nationalistic (we win or nobody does) attitude that Tory Prime Ministers like to try and give. Which of your points do...

It looks like charities are really businesses. income from about 50 million to 700 million Yes, the battle was lost a few years ago, the members' cycling club was taken over (hostile to my mind) to be a charity. Now people must be paid much more to run it. No use crying over spilt milk. Like most o...

Even a German car?

There are two groups fighting to have supremacy over the population. One group has their seat of power at European level, the other at UK level. It may be that one of those groups is more in tune with your personal politics and for some of us that is Westminster and for others that is Brussels. It m...

Live happily ever after . . . . of course. :wink: You have been reading the wrong newspapers. If you leave the EU, everybody is going to die a long (but short) agonising death after watching ISIS take over the (pollution destroyed) world, enslaving your children and letting you starve or worse whil...

One specific example - not that far from me there is plenty of horticulture. It is RELIANT on foreign labour, not just because its low paid (I expect it is anyway) but because its very very hard work (I did it once, many years ago when I was much younger and fitter, just for the day. Nearly killed ...

I take it you are alluding to recent non-German migrants. It is clear whose interests Merkel favours. In your allusion, you make my point for me. Look, you say you are an EU citizen before a British citizen, a nonsense if ever I have heard any, but it is simply not true. You are a citizen of the wo...

I trust Angela Merkel to look after my interests more than I trust Cameron or IDS. The same Angela Merkel who invited over a million migrants to Germany last year with at least as many due again this year. If she can't look after German interests by inviting an unending tide of migrants into her co...

I don't think belittling the UK population and praising our EU neighbours brings anything good or logical to the conversation. I am an EU citizen more than a UK citizen. I am just speaking up for my own people regardless of which country they are in. There may be jokes that Yorkshire would do anyth...

: The fact that Cherie Blair has grown rich/fat on the Human Rights legislation.

She also has it from a very reliable source that 45 minutes after the vote to leave we are all going to be destroyed en masse.

That is until we find out we are not leaving the EU and then wearing a cycle helmet is made law Not likely when you consider the existence of all those lidless Dutch cyclists. Our government on the other hand has said it is just waiting until the existing take up is high enough that any rebellion i...

Any one else had something similar? How did you deal with it? Avoid the subject. I have two friends, at least, who are absolutely convinced that a helmet saved their lives. They were both fairly badly hospitalised with head and jaw fractures between them. They lecture, I keep silent, they leave it ...

In, we are voting against 27 othe countries who have a declared interest in voting against us. That is how a large proportion of the UK see things, (our press sees to that!) however on the other side of the channel there is a much greater sense of co-operation and working for the common good. All t...

What do I do with all of my CTC branded stuff? £100 winter jacket?? Silver CTC Badges???

Keep wearing it.
There isnt any directive from "above" for sections to change their kit.
and if there was, it would just be (rightly) totally ignored.
