  1. I need to hear Truss talking about pork markets again. But even if you disagree, we as a people voted for these regulations restricting meat and dairy exports, our government created them. The EU is respecting our sovereignty and imposing our deal. While sandwiches appears petty, when you delve into the detail behind the Daily Mail outrage, these are the new rules that we asked for and celebrated. If you want petty, try taking an apple into Australia. Their country, their rules - as we respectfully say in the UK.
  2. I presumed they'd finally stopped trading. Nice to hear that they're still out there somewhere. Eight years to go now in the Eisner plan to see pompey competing with Barcelona and Real Madrid....
  3. So are you both saying that Neil did everything he could and it was Boris at fault, hiding and dodging scrutiny? That's not a good look for a statesman.
  4. His reputation was damaged during the last election when he did give both barrels to Corbyn, Swinson and even Sturgeon - but failed to secure any time with his old chum and colleague Boris Johnson. That episode was a long way from balanced, and his rebuking of the PM following that failure was nowhere near as damaging as the soundbites from his attacks on the other three. That was the week he lost his reputation for giving everyone the same treatment.
  5. Now I know for sure that this is a comedy thread! Good work guys - Happy 2021 to everyone of all sides, may your arguments retain comedy value and continue to lure in the unwary to get irate for little gain. 😊

    Coronavirus

    From PPE to testing, I've not seen anything to suggest that there is a cabinet minister capable of handling a rollout of this size. This time they need to get serious logistical help from properly experienced people - not their mate who runs a sweet shop. This is going to be hugely complex so there will be mistakes along the way - batches not arriving, staff being a bit rubbish here and there, but as a whole, we really need this delivered much better than the rest has been.
  7. I did, but I'm more interested in Saints.
  8. Adams getting a kick in the head was an accident, Theo getting studded down his calf so late it was off the ball was definitely not, and a proper referee would have dealt with that. It was a little bit Puel tonight, hopefully through fatigue. We're doing okay.

    Coronavirus

    The answer to Brexit and Covid is clearly to reopen the shipyards. As the UK leads the world in every field of human endeavour I'm sure we can build enough new cruise liners to house all the ill, and with Boris having negotiated for our waters to be bigger too, we have more room to moor them all. Once the virus fades away we can then transform them into battleships and get a few wars on the go against some little countries - maybe develop an empire... Sounds like a project for Chris Grayling.
  10. Or as Dave Allen would say, may your God go with you. Happy Friday everybody - even the angry ones, they need peace and love more than most. 🎅

    Coronavirus

    Delayed response in February, Boris shaking hands, Dido Harding's Cheltenham Festival allowed to run, PPE opportunities missed then contracts awarded in a corrupt fashion, dither and delay over borders and airports, time wasted on failed systems when launching a robust testing regime was absolutely key, U-turns, MPs lying, laughable appointments of key roles, lessons from other countries ignored, NHS staff exposed without kit, billions of taxpayer pounds wasted, old people left to die in care homes, science ignored, more U-turns, the public and scientists gently blamed, figures manipulated, targets missed but lied about - and you can be sure the final trick will be to delay and dodge an enquiry that would expose the most inept and corrupt cabinet in living memory. Anyone who seriously thinks they've done a great job needs sectioning - look at them, they couldn't run a fucking bath.
  12. Nigel Farage is a hero? What an interesting way of looking at the world.
  13. Entry to the ground was very simple, ID partially-checked, no queue. It was nice to be back and I was fortunate to make the draw for game two but....it's an odd experience. A bit like watching a reserve game, yes there was atmosphere but it's pretty quiet and relaxed. As for people who choose to sit in Row F regularly, you can't see half of what's happening across the pitch! 😊
  14. Anything that makes stadiums less of a safe haven for racists and makes them get all angry is definitely time well spent. And everyone sensible who can see the need for the message perfectly understand the differences between similarly-named campaigns, can grasp the bigger picture about football, and as a result of being informed are pretty chilled about the whole thing. Racists like to make mischief to distract from the facts - but life is too short to get angry about nowt. 😊
  15. Tipner is technically an actual dump. Toxic waste.
  16. If I was looking to attack the opposition on anything I'd rather discuss topics like Barnard Castle, bullying at work and absent fathers before mentioning the subject of wasting taxpayers' money. PPE.
  17. Is this the official forum meeting place for angry people? It reeks of simmering gammon and marinated pinkos. 😊
  18. Boris has played a blinder, pretending to be a clueless corrupt clown, bumbling about like an arrogant scruffy Eton simpleton from the 1950s, but cunningly forcing the EU into a full surrender to our terms! It's his billionaire backers I feel sorry for, those who benefit the most from a No Deal will be shafted this weekend. When he delivers this 'fantastic deal' he's been promising, they are going to feel that their donations have been a waste of time and they've been misled for four years. That can't be a good feeling, and certainly one they won't want to admit yet.
  19. Woke? 🤣😅😂
  20. It's not racist, but it's ignorant and confirms the speaker is ill-informed about his own job. An official in the Champions' League should know who he's dealing with and he should know that referring to someone just by colour is rude and leaves him open to criticism. He should also know that in this case his own language is open to massive misunderstanding. Like Clark, not racist, just out of touch with the basic requirements of his job. And if people still think it's not backward to describe anyone firstly by their colour, there's no point in debating as it's too late for them.
  21. Sadly some of them do need reminding.

    Coronavirus

    From a PR point of view I would imagine the first recipient had to pass a full fitness test and political interview before being 'randomly selected'.... The last thing Boris needs is her popping her clogs anytime soon or slagging off the vaccine/government response. Nice to hear the vulnerable list being rushed through should be sorted within five months and the rest of the population sometime in the next year or two. This could take longer than Brexit.
  23. Some commentators are still working on the laws of the game from 1973. Contact started outside the box, continued into the box. Penalty. The end.

    Coronavirus

    The devil is in the detail... This morning it was said that our first delivery should be enough to vaccinate 400,000 people maximum. Millions will follow but not until the end of the year, so the real programmes will probably start in January/February.
  25. People watching porn with the volume up while you're trying to shit on the bus.
