Me, I'd tell him to swallow his pride and get the job back, but maybe you a jam marketing expert? Like I said if it happens, it happens. I think it's wrong, like duel pricing in Thailand, but I can't stop it. I won't help it though. as my conscience would not be clear after. If the jam is innovative, with the right marketing, it will sell to the WORLD,..Your own key word there. I'd have a go at that. I would not get 'rat-arsed' given that opportunity. Duel pricing is business making profit where it can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brexit hasn’t unfolded as they expected, the whole thing stinks. This is true particularly of British politicians, civil servants, business leaders or even many Brexit-cheerleading journalists, they don't believe the official state ideology of Brexit. But to admit that lie publicly would be embarrassing and a loss of face, they just mouth the slogans. When the final deal comes out and truth can’t be ignored any longer, they will blame others. They are immune to arguments and logic (as are many remainers); this is a new religion. The Brexit process has been orchestrated by a remainer. And that is why it’s a shambles. If and just if, our independence from this so called Union,does go tits up. You remainers have provided us with a good excuse. We can always put the blame on the final agreement, enforced by the Bureaucrats in Brussels, on the Support of some Remoaners. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We all knew full well from the very early days of the Brexit debate that Brexiteers would find a way to blame Remain for whatever part of the process and outcome doesn't suit their taste precisely - if it rains on the last day that will also be the fault of Remain. Yet even if Brexit were to work out perfectly in every respect there will be no mention made of the leadership and their skills, the results will be entirely due to Brexiteers. It's just the way it is and we've always understood that. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are less successful now you will be worse off after Brexit. Do none of you see why the Komodo Cons want Brexit? Job security? Working conditions? The environment? Animal welfare?

As for a large influx of foreigners, many are refugees and as such can be sent back when it is safe to do so, The British have no ID and no form of house registration ( in Germany and in all other EU countries I should imagine,one must register your place of abode with the town council and deregister when you move to another address) This means that the British authorities lose track of who is and isn't here. Then why is it, that an increasing number of Germans are becoming disillusioned with Merkals disasterouse decision to invite millions of people with a totally different culture, who have no intention of integrating into the German/ European way of life. Don’t beleive me, go ask the females in Cologne if they are happy, and then go ask the Getman authorities, how many of those REGISTERED invaders have been convicted and deported. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or perhaps it will make them think twice about ASEAN, maybe they should have a referendum on that.......hmm, I wonder why they didn't have one initially, it couldn't be the decision was deemed too complex for the population to be able to vote on it effectively could it.. Yes it was decided by the the establishment, very similar to the transition from the EEC to the hated E.U. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are so like many of the ordinary council house blokes I know. Salt of the earth. Can I ask which line(s) were fatuous and offended. Was it? " A poll last week showed 68 per cent of Britons want the referendum’s outcome to be acted upon; the non-appearance of the economic catastrophe Remainers confidently predicted helps explain why." I'll download it and mark it up In yellow highlighter. I thought Heffer was unnecessarily rude about Lord Patton and to portray a still living former priminister in that way was frankly beneath The Telegraph which I used to take for the cryptic crossword. Even nostalgia isn't what it used to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Outside Brexit I think she did an outstanding job getting support for retaliatory action against Russia as a result of Salisbury. It's too early to speculate about political outcomes imo but Remainers have to have something to gristle about don't they. Can't wait for the Mogg The retaliatory response to the Russian attack is mandated. Nato nations do not have a choice in the matter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luvverly jubberly! The ASEAN principals were written with a specific purpose of allowing the elite in each ASAEN nation to have a free hand to do whatever they wish without outside interference. The people who suffer are the poor and powerless who cannot ask for anyone to defend or stand up for their rights. You mentioned 'Totalitarianism', well yes, plenty of that in ASEAN. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
