A 100 years ago the automobile was thought a 'delusional concept', and you would die if you exceeded 30mph..it would never catch on...
On the other hand, remainers, lacking imagination, have continued, desperately flogging the old deceased carthorse.

This should be us
But short termism and bloody shareholder value has destroyed our industry. Great idea!
Look at our aviation history: Comet, Lightning, Concorde, Vulcan, WHERE ARE WE NOW???
I watched a documentary about the newly built Pacific Peppercon Class locomotive "Peppercorn" on a 100 mph qualification run near York. Fabulous!
Some here think I am anti English. You couldn't be further from the truth.
Hitachi Locomotives on the East coast line? I was born in Middlesborough ( which explains much)
AND semiconductors?? We invented the computer for goodness sake!!
The UK is a shadow of what we should be. All this Brexit car s just taking our eye off the ball.
We need to rebuild our real world class manufacturing base. That's going to take investment in both human capital and plant
Sorry to disappoint you Grouse..but there's nothing to debate on those points.
I agree 100%, when I am in Blighty, I have French electricity, Chinese bulbs, I believe the water is French, the local town has 3 Chinese restaurants, even the fish and chip shop is owned by Chinese, the pub is run by Indians...<deleted>.
Leaving the EU may kick start an industrial renaissance..it will have to if it needs
to trade with the world..Bumbling along safely in the Mafia EU, is not the answer.
Like the old Chinese say, 'In every crisis there is always an opportunity'.

Well mate you seem to have knowledge. Asking because i worked with a guy who actually told me he went to jail receiving stolen goods He did 3 years Kept his nose clean for years.In later life and this is from his mouth not mine he wanted to go to America for a holiday with his wife He told me he was refused a pass port because he had a criminal record Now i see this upsets you a lot and i am not misrepresenting Australian law i dont think the guy just made that up. I dont need to provide you with references i am telling you what the guy said to me You can believe me or not i really dont care mate. Now my point to all this i am asking if a guy in America has a record for Manslaughter can he still get a passport? You have just answered me YES Thanks bye
3 years for receiving.
2 years for killing.
Governments regard a stolen TV worth more than lives of those they govern.
Shows their priorities?

I had a buddy visit recently and he did not think Thai women were attractive. He much prefers Falang.
No issue a matter of taste/choice.
I however find them the most beautiful and sexy women in the world, which is why I am here.
Even the ugly one have a certain beauty...and theres no feminists here

Robb was no gentleman either..
I saw a similar thing before, a large drunk grabbed a girl behind the bar and pulled her across the bar, but quick as a flash another Thai bar girl came up behind him and belted him on the nut with the thick end of a snooker cue. Could have killed him, but what else could she do? I don't think it will be a murder charge, but manslaughter.

The High Commissioner's father was also High Commissioner at the time the UK joined up. A certain amount of schadenfreude or revenge coming into play methinks!
I don't believe the Ozzys are into revenge like the EU... She'll be right mate. My wombats got his eye on you mate.

Having done my rounds arourd, I find Thai women most gracious and mesmerizing women in
the world. Gentle, easygoing, always with a good sense of houmor. Their kids are loughing on the
way to school everyday.
If they decide to love you, that s a relationship you re never gonna forget.(and the relationship
never trully ends)
Women, Thai or wherever, cannot not love men, the most you can expect is respect, if you are a good man.
Thai ladies are, as you say, particularly desirable, and I'm sure they find farang to be particularly 'easy meat'.

See what strong unions can achieve? Any chance of similar flexible working in England?
I am impressed with your concern for the people that work.
But I would favour a system of cooperatives, where everyone shares the decisions and the profits equally.

I agree. They present their readers with alternative facts so well.
Assuming there would be such thing as an impartial newspaper..news gathered from government sources is only that which they want publicly known.
The truth is always illusive or unobtainable.
A wise successful old trader once said to me, 'Believe nothing you hear and only half of what you see, and let your money be the last thing you part with.'

But this is the first time people are trying to (edit - immediately) subvert a democratic decision in the UK?
Try as long ago as 1653.
The best ever speech in parliament.
It is high time for me to put an end to your sitting in this place, which you have dishonored by your contempt of all virtue, and defiled by your practice of every vice; ye are a factious crew, and enemies to all good government; ye are a pack of mercenary wretches, and would like Esau sell your country for a mess of pottage, and like Judas betray your God for a few pieces of money.
Is there a single virtue now remaining amongst you? Is there one vice you do not possess? Ye have no more religion than my horse; gold is your God; which of you have not barter'd your conscience for bribes? Is there a man amongst you that has the least care for the good of the Commonwealth?
Ye sordid prostitutes have you not defil'd this sacred place, and turn'd the Lord's temple into a den of thieves, by your immoral principles and wicked practices? Ye are grown intolerably odious to the whole nation; you were deputed here by the people to get grievances redress'd, are yourselves gone! So! Take away that shining bauble there, and lock up the doors.
In the name of God, go!
