hmmm, im not a big fan of beetroot though and the cranberry gives it a very sweet taste which offsets the brie and bacon

Nah, its not. About 2 months ago, I would have agreed with you, however I tried it and love it! Seeing some of the luncheon threads, and the amount you consume, you should try it. Go on, just once... Peer pressure, peer pressure

has a huge c*nt?

Pure light hearted thread. Favourite sandwich filling. At the moment, my favourite is... Thick slices of Brie, with bacon and cranberry sauce in a torpedo baguetto. So god damn nice! I fully recoommend you try it.

Lol!

CCTV for major crimes is IMO ok, its when it gets down to silly small time crimes that it is possibly a waste. If a garuntee could not be given that it would only be used for major crimes then I would be against it. I dont really see what the biggy is with ID cards, I mean we all (well most of us) have passports FFS. I know they would be a little more complexed then the passport, however, there is not really a great deal of difference when you think about it is there? I bet the likes of Ponty has a passport!

5 or 10, meh, probably 10

Dyson signed for Arsenal?

Not scared, just concerned. Durkka Durkka

No matter how many times you see it on 'You've been framed' or the like, I still find it very funny when dogs try to f*ck the sh*t out of humans legs!

If I were to say this I would be mauled. FWIW I think it would be a brilliant idea. Or, if in the case of single parents, you get the state to pay one to become qualified in child sitting and they then look after a few children during the day, enabling the other single parents to go out and work.

No. I welcomed ID cards and CCTV to aid combatting terror attacks, not to catch the petty theif stealing 30pence worth of sweets or a driver doing 37 in a 30 mph. I would not welcome CCTV or ID cards if they were used to any other reason but the afformentioned. Coincidenctly I do not agree with speeding camera's as they are not 'safety devices' but merely money raising devices. Targetting an easy market.

Nothing, just wanted to ask a few serious questions. Ill go back to being a spammer when I have had answers. I fear Ponty has skirted around answering my question though as he knows the answer to my question would be similar to my views which he would never admit. It frustrates him that his earnings is directly supporting a spunging family but admiting it will be a tad hypocritical after calling me a fascist

Havent you used your 3 posts yet?

Its a facility for one member to message the other! I would like it on this thread. Ponty is quick to have a go, so I feel it would be nice to have the whole thing on here. I know I said the questions were directly for him, but feel free to answer them yourself if you so wish!

Christ he must have been small!

I lol'd

God forbid that the UK be hit with a terror attack to the scale of 9/11 then. May I ask you directly Ponty, 1) What do you personally have against ID cards? 2) (Very hypothetical but) Knowing for certain that Mr x was planning to commit an act of terror but the police couldnt find sufficient evidence to charge him after 3 weeks and he was released and went ahead with his plan killing thousands, would you be upset he was released early? Or twisted another way, if he were detained against the rules unofficially for 6 weeks and enough evidence was obtained to prove his plan, would you lobby for his release to support you belief knowing releasing him would cause innocent deaths? 3) Are you happy your hard earned cash is paying for benefits for someone to have more kids therefore increasing their benefits with no intention of ever getting a job to financially support their family. BTW Q3 is one I asked ages ago, which you have still yet to answer.

She's purdy!

ID Cards: I did not start the thread, I said I do not see them as such a bad idea like certain people are making them out to be. I certainly see more pro's than con's. The only con I can see is people moaning about not having privacy. IMO if a safer country comes to the detriment of me carrying around a small credit card like identification then so be it (its hardly an CCTV strapped to your head is it?) HR Rights: I again, would say spending an additional 3 weeks in prison if innocent, then being let go at the end is better than letting a guilty person go after 3 weeks. I am obviously not the only person in the UK to share this view otherwise the rule wouldnt of been put forward would it? Monitoring of mobile phones: I said lightly that I would accept this if only used for terrorist activity. If it meant that I would receive a knock on my door for a discussing a mate coming over to smoke a bit of weed on the phone then I would be against it. And before you say 'Bend the rules to favour you', Me smoking a bit of weed is hardly making a difference to the safety of the UK. CCTV: I did not say CCTV should be everywhere, so please make sure you are being factual when having a go at me. I said I believe CCTV to be a good thing. I do not want it in my home, or even on my street, but it helps in specifically town centres in if not detering driminal activity, catching the culprits. And Im sorry Camels dont appreciate other peoples views, Im sure there is a name for that. Is it narrowminded?

Tiggs if I wanted your imput, I would ask for it

Thank you StB, going against the grain is always difficult and I apologise for any grief you may receive on my behalf by anyone. You rightly state that most people would comment in exactly the same way, if not worse to what I have said. It just shirks me that certain people get all on their high horse because they dont agree with a certain poster, yet if another poster posts something, they react in a different way! A capping of benefits would be a very good idea IMO and 3 is a good number. And thank you, you are actually one of the only ones who have taken this thread as it was meant. To see what opinions are out there and suggest ideas etc.

That wasn't the question Ponty. And where have I said about exterminating newborns? The question was does it frustrate you to see someone earning £170k p.a sat in a very large house squelching out sprogs? Knowing its funded by money you have earn't through working?
