Commiserations Canucks. But you voted for it.

Looks like the Canucks have cut off their nose to spite their face. Good luck with Carney.

Are you insinuating they have principles of some type?

Lucky they still use cash in large parts of Spain.

I'm fascinated by the place and would love to go up there. It's a shame they don't do legal tours. I wouldn't want to risk legal/visa issues going up there illegally like this guy.

Our farm has Bananas, Mango, Coconuts, Rose Apple, Jack Fruit, Lemons, Lime, Guava, Tamarind, Longan, Dragon Fruit and lots of fish. Most of it for personal consumption but we end up with too much so give a lot away to the villagers who don't annoy us or people who do work for us. I want to get chickens next year and maybe some ducks but the GF isn't so keen due to noise/smell/mess.

I suspect they knew his views very well. That wouldn't be a problem for the BBC. They just didn't know he had posted them so publicly. That's the issue here. That's why they've had to come out and "clarify" the situation with their faux outrage at the anti-semitic comments.

Labour will keep pandering to the Muslim voter base in the hope that it's enough to get them 4 more years at the trough.

Bad move. Women don't always have great spatial awareness and they aren't always prepared to listen to instructions either. My girlfriend made a similar, less formal request to continue under "visual separation" (despite my warnings) before reversing over our 6 week old puppy. Fortunately, puppies legs are surprisingly flexible and she eventually made a full recovery.

Seems like energy is quite important after all. 😅 Maybe time to drop all this net zero rubbish and worry about keeping the lights on?

I wonder how long before there is a new official Muslim/Islam party in the UK. I know we have the Islamic Party of Britain but they seem a bit old hat having been founded in the late 80's. In the current political climate maybe it's time for a new one? They could call it BRAMAS or BREZBOLLAH or something similar. The party colours could be red, white, green and black. Maybe Ricky Jones could head it up with some sharp, "cutting edge" policies, with Humza Yousaf "scooting around" in the DEI Department. It might be good to split the left wing vote.

Yes, it's almost like they're gaslighting us, isn't it... The Tories should have defunded them when they had the chance. Because there is no chance Labour is going to defund their own propaganda wing. Especially while their views on Gaza/Hamas are so closely aligned with those of the BBC. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/politics/labour/11749043/Andrew-Gilligan-Jeremy-Corbyn-friend-to-Hamas-Iran-and-extremists.html

Your argument appears to be, "Well - if you ignore all the laws they are clearly breaking, then they are law abiding". And you call ME "dumb"? 😆

They've still got the "Free Free Palestine" and "Transwomen are women" marches to attend.

No, I really don't. Do you mean you consider someone who breaks into a country illegally, stays illegally, works illegally and pays no tax is "law abiding"? If so, would you apply this same logic to a foreigner working illegally without a visa in Thailand? Or is this one of those special classifcations that leftists have for minority illegals in the US?

There is nothing stupid about pointing out the facts. People who illegally enter a country and then work without a visa/work permit are not law abiding. Quite the opposite in fact. They are breaking many fundamental laws.

The government should not tell pensioners where/what to spend their money on. They paid money into the system all their lives. They should get the benefit at the end of it, no matter where they retire. Well, I am not even close to being a pensioner and I chose to invest privately rather than into the state system. As UK government's become increasingly dishonest, increasing the retirement age and then freezing the already woeful UK pension for foreign retirees, I am quite pleased with my decision. My financial future is not dicated by dishonest British politicians. It's just an excuse to limit the payouts after years of paying in. Immoral is what I call it.

Just going on what you have posted on this and previous threads. There is a common theme, you dislike people who have been successful. It's a common trait amongst the left so there's no need to feel alone.

He hates them because they are rich and successful. It's really that simple.

A less myopic view would help here. Maybe you need to take a look at the bigger picture of wealth fleeing the country. 😉 https://www.blacktowerfm.co.uk/news/millionaires-are-fleeing-the-uk-under-labour/

It is indeed immoral. But the British government doesn't care about the indigenous people of Britain who paid into the system all their lives, especially if they are old and working class.

Perhaps you should tell Labour, who are trying to get even more tax out of successful people - leading them to actually leave the UK, resulting in Labour getting less. That's greed. Not to mention economic stupidity.

That's exactly what you suggested. What has being in the top 0.1% got to do with worrying about paying more tax than they are obliged to?

If they are in the country without legal status, then they are not law abiding.
