I see the 'cheese eating surrender monkeys' and the rest of the EU are happy to leave it to us (and the USA) to keep their shipping routes open for them!
Have you ever thought of joining a political forum and posting about Betfair trading?
Actually statistics have shown that anonymous internet forums are the safest place to discuss politics as it's rather difficult to get punched through a screen.

My bot would have made a killing on the lunchtime matches but I entered the wrong parameters and wasted time looking at the rule file. :x

A nice-looking continental bird was standing behind me at the tobacco kiosk. She slowly moved alongside me, shoulder to shoulder. Then, when another cashier opened she jumped the flipping queue!

No she didn't you slowpoke.

So if a new price opens up on your overs, would you really respect your imaginary "queue etiquette" based on the previous price, or is it a free for all and first come first serve? :)

Nobody likes a hypocrite!

Not sure I believe this, never realised the Goody-Goody LL's could be so stupid! Jamaican convicted of drug offences and worse, discharging a firearm in Birmingham in broad daylight prevented from being deported by activist on the same flight. Clearly they want such people to be part of UK society!

Instead of escorting the 'prisoner' off the flight they should have removed the activists, arrested them for disrupting a flight and ban them from flying for a few years. How can we allow a handful of people make this country less safe?

The issue for me law is too soft. Few year ago one my best friend got killed on m62 by drink driver. Driver walk away from jail after 3 year on good behaviour. Etc. Make it harder for criminal that's the only way to stop crime.

I watch Britian's Most Evil Killers and The World's Most Evil Killers on the Sky Crime channel. They have about 16 series between them so the term "most evil" is used loosely - they can't all be the most evil!

However, my point is, just about every horrific murderer, rapist, child abuser and torturer has either killed/raped, been jailed and released to do it again, or committed a crime serious enough to warrant being taken off the streets before their crimes escalate. Many have committed multiple killings when they could easily have been banged up for the first. Dozens of people get killed every year needlessly.

You don't need to be a criminal psychologist to recognise when somebody's overstepped the mark and isn't likely to change or too dangerous to be released, but we've always been stuck with a determination to empty our prisons.

Jewish protestors won't allow the likes of Tommy Robinson to join them, but they allow Suella Braverman to stand with them! :shock:

She's even worse. :lol:

Sunak says he will defy any law and judgement from Europe. I think I'll follow his example and defy TV licencing laws. :D

My cigarettes have gone up 65 pence and it's pushed inflation up to 4%, making it look as if everybody's suffering instead of just smokers!

Useless Sod

was quite a common put down when I was growing up but you rarely hear it anymore. Not as if its politically incorrect.

Nevertheless I will still try and keep it alive.
