    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I,ve been fortunate to visit some fantastic places over this year, it always amazes me the number of people ( not always the young) sit in hotels, on boats, on beach, in restaurants with their entire attention on a phone 90% of their time. Seems mad to me that folk spend such huge sums visiting...

    Quote mentions he deleted upto 40,000 tweets...when do people do their jobs nowadays ? Seems everybody is tweeting, posting, trending , porning or deleting their history or inappropriate comments rather than working. We should have social media holidays where the lot ( including this) is shut...

    Its not Blair labour need, its what he is saying and his policies. Labour party simply is divided, but then again so are Tories.. The cat is out the bag now...Labour need to unite under a more ( not totally) central leader..

    And enter no 10 with a set of policies and manifesto the majority do not want. Isn't that the end of democracy Flecc ? At least Brexit got 52% of voters support.

    I wholeheartedly agree with this but can we ever see either rest of Labour party and more importantly the voting public accepting Blair back. What Labour should do is out Blair completely and replace him with a,Blair Mk 2...( a la Macron) Think they,d walk into power then...once in power they...

    So schools have got better since you attended ?? When was that OG ? I,d guess mid 50's..?? ( no insult meant if it wasn't) Thought all these tory governments had made things worse.. For once I agree with basis of your post. We are better off than any other time in history..( definitely than...

    Ken Loach is a multi millionare who made his fortune investing public money in films to then profit himself from their success. Yes , another disgruntled hard done to activist pointing out the wrongs in society whilst actually being part of the problem, yet offering not a single solution. There...

    I,ll go private if I feel required op or treatment is not available on NHS. Years ago I snapped cruciate ligament and had it replaced on NHS in 2001. Unfortunately by 2010 I had bad arthritis in joint.( which is normal post cruciate replacement) Was offered replacement kneee on NHS but went...

    OG 1945 is ancient history and I doubt very much it was as pleasant as you make out. Any good times and philanthropy on part of government could easily be explained away with both the euphoria of the war ending and the not inconsiderable sums of money coming our way with the Marshall plan...

    Thanks Flecc...I,m actually considering private. Discussed exactly your points with consultant last visit..Hence why it was might have operation. Spent too much time in high uv conditions...To be fair they aren't that bad, borderline on NHS. But thanks all same.

    Agreed, but you still haven't given an example of a "successful" socialist society. Vietnam has average monthly wage of under 50 us dollars. ( and many people surviving on under a dollar a day) China and Vietnam are single party democracies, ie dictatorships. Nearly all of us live in.paradise...

    Yep , there are a lot of worried Porsche people. Getting rid of the flat 6 boxer engine I think will prove problematic. The engine in the 986/7/1 was fundamental to its character. It sounded fantastic, pulls low but still revs to 7k plus.. The 4 cylinder ( still boxer I believe, 2 litre ,turbo ...

    Just as a lighter OT break and linked to the Boxster discussion, read this other day , its about handling of cars.....if you get my drift.. "Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car, oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car. Horsepower is how fast you hit...

    But that's exactly why the problem is impossible to solve. Israel does now exist and its inhabitants are deserving of UN protection...as are Palestinians. Can you imagine the situation had Israel been established elsewhere. ( Australia? China? Vietnam . My personal view is Israel should have...

    Surely that is simply legitimising the invasion of Palestine in 1947. Are you suggesting if enough countries agree a Countries' sovereignty can be changed and legitimised by the UN ? With our world wide popularity perhaps our Queenie should watch out.

    We voted that way for Blair..Perhaps not a liberal in same sense as Makron but certainly more central than any government before or since. Think we agree we are still paying the price for Blair's behaviour. Not having a centralist option to vote for now is one of them. Not sure we can use...
