Naughty tillson,
"Women are treated differently to men by the justice system.They are discriminated against and don’t receive the full sentence to which they are entitled"
is that a "moral Maze" trap you have set for Zlatan to mutter about?:oops:
It’s very true. Women are being short-changed by the justice system. Men are getting all the prison time whilst women receive very little for exactly the same offences. It’s yet another example of a type of gender payment gap, and one which receives very little attention.

So what I heard was this.

after an interview Liam Fox was asked why is he supporting Mays proposal. Off air mind and off the record.

He said. It has zero chance of happening. I can still remain as a Tory but know when we get no deal I can still be in the frame as being someone who can be in the cabinet.

They are still seeing themselves first, party second and country third.

Basically no deal even amongst the cabinet is where we are.

Anyone that genuinely needs to know this for their business. I can tell you on my mothers life that Liam Fox believes no deal is the outcome. Use this info as you see fit. We are on course for no deal.

Liam Fox is a bigger liar than Tom.

I give that as a caveat. All I will say is. I don’t lie.
And it hasn't occurred to you that Fox is lying through his teeth and simply hedging his bets by being on "Both sides at once"?

That should get him going as well!

Forget the EU grounding U.K. planes after Brexit Day, some clown has managed to do it with a £20 drone from Bangood.com. Either that or it was terrorism, but terrorism doesn’t happen, so it was a clown, honest.
Imagine what will happen if this inspires other idiots to do the same!

realism seems to return slowly with the EU's no deal planning.

The ROI would uphold the Common Travel Area between the UK and Ireland, ensure there is no return of physical checks on the border between the Republic and Northern Ireland.

I wonder how long will the EU allow the NI border to remain like it is at the moment.

Perhaps with shortages those jobs might start attracting the salaries they deserve.??
Actually the Government have a cunning plan
"
Theresa May will be ‘forced to back down’ over migrant curbs
Rebellious ministers believe salary threshold after Brexit will be £21,000, not £30,000.

See? and logically it could go down even further for Fruit pickers too.
Let's face it , they have betrayed a Brexit promise, haven't they?
Unlimited access of salary groups simply isn't controlled immigration, it's not just free movement for EU citizens, but the entire World!

to bring divided people together, a psychologist suggested this morning that there should be public debates where brexiters argue the case for remain and vice versa, remainers argue the case for brexit.
It may work in this thread too.

OG started that months ago...he just didn't realise.
But in the spirit of the concept. I ll start.
I want to stay in EU so we can take advantage of all those migrants, pay them sod all, get them to do all jobs we don't want and clean my car every Saturday morning for £2..And whilst at it they can prop up our underfunded, badly organised health and social systems on minimum wage.
Wots not to like..

The art of debate was killed on February 4th 2004...

Reminds me of a world heavyweight boxing match many years ago, Rocky Marciano versus Don Cockell
Cockell is waiting in his corner as Marciano climbs in through the ropes, makes a show of looking round as asks "Where's your fighter?"

Where indeed are the hero's who will argue the case for brexit? our "Three Stooges Tribute Band" are hardly capable of being trusted with the job, in fact they carefully avoid doing so, and resort to slapstick at every opportunity :rolleyes:

Great fun and all that, and it keeps the thirty people fingers assured us check the site fifty times every single day amused.
On the Debit side it doesn't do much to make Brexit look attractive does it?

Too late as usual, you can have that after we leave the EU under the new immigration rules.... see my post #42449

I am convinced you have cataracts.

Go back and read the bit in the post where I said this actual quote.

Did you get a brain injury in the war?
