Harsh but the idiot brought it non himself. It went like this apparently

Yorkshire MEP walks into his auditorium where Woolfe was giving a speech, Yorksghire MEP heckles Woolfe about his decision to defect to Tories 24 hours earlier. Woolfe takes off his jacket and says those immortal words "right you! outside now"

Yorkshire MEP obliges and decks him. Woolfe goes back to Auditorium but collapses 30 minutes later.

The tip of the iceberg I'm afraid. Coming soon to a wet market near you...

The boy from Cleethorpes did good! 

The figures I quoted were for money sent electronically it takes no account of money taken home by immigrants as cash or other. Basically the UK is hemorrhaging money to the rest of the world. Best figures available show migrants take out between 25-37% of all money they earn. Good for them, but not good for UK economy.

Hope they performed the dude test on this competitior

Very late to the conversation, but one thing that has always amazed me, is when the government tries to convince everybody that immigrants are a net benefit to the economy.

This is just one big fat lie. From the report the govt uses to justify itself

Quote

We have no direct source of information on immigrants’ consumption patterns in the UK, and we thus cannot directly test the extent of immigrants’ under-consumption relative to natives. Therefore, we construct an alternative scenario, where we assume that the consumption of recent immigrants (those arrived since 2000) is only 80% that of natives with a similar income10. In practice, this assumption amounts to applying the effective tax rates to 80% of immigrants’ income.

They estimate immigrants spending "consumption rate" to be 80% of non migrant spending.

This is pure fantasy. If you look at the figures for remittances from UK, they are nearly £17 billion pounds. That money has never been factored into the calculations.

The whole thing is just one big con to stop us from getting too teed off

Serious question: How do they stop rain water flooding the tunnel?

Presumably they have water pumps that automatically pump out water to above road. No doubt these will fail at first opportunity and tunnel will be closed within a week.

Since most of them that voted for him were moslems i don't think they regret, with 420 mosques and growing in London that makes for a hell of a lot of moslem supporters

Not this time. Maybe they had some impact but only 640K muslims in London with popn of 8.6 million. He got in because voted in by Labour voters. Many of whom now are regretting his stance against Jeremy Corbyn and his general egomaniacal demeanour.

Not a chance! This is one time in the sun. I don't know anyone who doesn't already regret voting for him

Sadiq is a moron.  I doubt this report will ever see the light of day

It is about time the UN imposed an embargo on any animals being sent to China to be used as medicine. The whole thing is completely barbaric nonsense. Let them stick to herbs and trees.

Nothing much change since than, although not on the same scale,

the world still hate Jews, persecute, harass, mock and kill them if

just because they are Jews. this world has learned nothing from

Babi Yar or other places and event in history.

 

 

 Absolute b*llocks.

The world couldn't really care less if you are Jewish or not. The only people that hate Jews are Arab Muslims, but then it seems they have a very good reason for that.

I'll give you odds, by the end of the day today, someone in the govt will say the exact opposite.

Boom! and there it is.

It would be a great place for a prison.

It's not really a telescope, it's a death star weapon capable of destroying whole cities anywhere in the world. 

Oh no! Two types of floods. Thank god they waited. It would have been terrible to have had everything ready for just one type of flood. 

What does a policeman have to do in Thailand to actually be prosecuted & spend time in jail?

If only they had some sort of system to store all that water, it might come in useful in the dry season.

oooh British people did lots of bad things, back 200 years ago. So only British people did bad things, and the rest of the world were all holding hands and being nice to each other. What a load of s-h-i-t-e!

We hate foreigners but we revel in their numbers, and we want more to come. 

The simplest way is of course to attach bonuses for traffic cops to punish wrongdoers. 

Amazing just how many problems in Thailand have the same root cause, those boys in brown!

The problem IMO is not that the traffic lights are not programmed properly, it's not even the amount of cars on the road, it is the total and complete lack of respect for rules. When so many vehicles are on the road, one <deleted> causing an obstruction, or delaying traffic has a massive knock on effect, it's like those big domino set-ups each knocking over the next. 

In a month they could enforce current road law massive campaign to drive within rules and huge fines for idiots disobeying.

They aren't the best we have, that's a fact, but that's the choice now and it's clear the Hillary Clinton is the much more rational choice than dangerous donald trump. 

It's unlikely that being rational will come into it. To call Trumps followers "deplorables" is suicide for her. As in the UK, attacking those who do not believe in things the way you do by insinuating they are less intelligent is bourgeoise  arrogance at its very worst, and the people will not respond to it kindly. They will dig their heels in even more, and those wavering will now firmly move over to Trump in their thousands. A big, big, mistake.
