profound softus :) ......... majorities vote based on personal greed, class distinction, media led herding or maybe because their dad voted for one lot or the other but majorities dont not have power! minorities have power now! minorities and the televisual media. someone...

the op statement was about the media. he is 100% right! they dont cause it as there are clearly other factors but they do scaremonger. they suggest that you cant get a mortgage but that is rubbish. the banks have withdrawn the cheaper fixed rate deals.. well so would i if i could earn more...

mr tax expert.. there is only a few groups that will suffer with this tax change and they are a small percentage. i am one of them! it might cost me a pint a week and maybe a mars bar. big deal! it is a fact that we have to pay tax its also a fact that some will win and some will lose...

wait 5 years then, freeze while you wait for it, and then two MUPPETS will come and do the work.... the same MUPPETS who might well be helping you out on here.. btw you've got a dew drip... wants it for nothing or someone else to pay and insults the blokes who do the work. and we...

i would suspect that the bed of muck you lay has a belly/hump in it. when you spread the muck, it must make an even spread along the length of the block. i see diyers laying a hump of muck in the middle and bashing the block that they lay on top to achieve a level, they hope that the block will...

yours must be faulty woody mine certainly boils the water and is much faster than any kettle 20 secs to fill a mug and the action agitates the tea bag. there is a filter but thats really meant for the cold option and you dont have to use it. i wont replace mine. i can remember when...

the fire brigade have an educational/training video called 'seven minutes to collapse' it shows how trusses pass all structural requirements until a fires involved. the gang nails used in trusses transfer heat more quickly and destroy the joint causing the roof to fall inwards. i dont like...

big word THEY! who are THEY? when ever do THEY have to prove what THEY say? you dont know any details but you join in the character assassination of the mother.. i can remember my mum talking at our garden gate with the other old women. those old, no teeth women, who had...

**** faced on alcohol and drugs! where did you hear that? its since been proved that there were no drugs involved! if you do actually have a 15 yr old then i guarantee that they have had a drink. (if you dont, then you face some disappointment ahead if you think you can control every...

i dont know any details but i do know that newspapers try their best to create' extra drama. nevermind that they are the biggest liars we come across. i dont know who the person was that scarlett was left with but im sure her mum had her reasons. i would not do the same with my kids as her...

im not even sure how much i was joking :wink: id certainly get in if i were to run as prime minister. you would vote for me joe :shock: :)

usual suspects :( mr m choudri or mr a muttmutt killed that poor kid, not her mum. just because she chooses a different life to you doesnt mean her kid should die. all you 'learn it from the papers' judge and jury types cant be that smart; because you should have learned by now that the...

real or not, what is the point in moaning about a structure or organisation when you place yourself above it; or any restriction caused by it. id cards :cry: they will be like beta max videos. the technology will be out of date before they were issued. how will they help? they be...
