  1. Technology that confirmed a win for the 'big' team ?
  2. Still not convinced that third goal actually crossed the line.
  3. Can anybody remember when Redmond last actually tried to take on an opponent ?
  4. We need to defend crosses better - 2 unopposed headers scored, luckily 1 ruled out.
  5. Why are there never defenders on the posts ?
  6. Sometimes his medication kicks in, if only for a few lucid moments.
  7. It's when there are posts like this that I miss Wes Tender's thoughtful and balanced insight into the UK fishing industry post Brexit. 😏
  8. Somewhere in there is a decent post, but your usual drivel, in this case climate scepticism, always has to bubble to the surface and spoil things unnecessarily. You are so embedded in your scorn that it is impossible for you to escape.
  9. Yet again you have it wrong, it was 1984.
  10. "What have the Romans ever done for us ?"
  11. You have that the wrong way round; she does not have the job because she is a lesbian, GM resents her having the job because she is a lesbian. ( Though the fact she is female is probably enough for him ).
  12. Dave Grohl proving he is just the coolest and nicest guy in rock;
  13. I watched a fascinating program on TV last night that investigated the intelligence of slime moulds.
  14. I have had extremely limited experience of the Met and how it operates, in fact I don't think I have ever had contact or conversation with any of their officers, so I don't think I am in a position to comment. I could comment on the Lancashire or Greater Manchester forces if you like - I do have slightly more exposure to them. However, as per my above comment, I suspect that the people who keep CD in her position probably think she is doing a good enough job for now. If you want a possibly critical comment about the Met, try to find somebody who lives within their remit. ( Note, this does not include GM, who doesn't like CD because she is (a) female, and (b) a lesbian ). EDIT: Actually I forgot, I did once have some contact with the Met. Because of my job I was asked to provide some techinal network tracing information to the Counter Terrorism branch to help them track down the source of a bomb threat that was sent by email to the White House on Sept 12th 2001.
  15. Who negotiated in Doha and agreed the treaty with the Taliban ; Trump, ( or his representatives ), or the generals ?
  16. "Top US defence officials have said the Taliban's takeover of Afghanistan can be traced back to a deal between the group and the Trump administration. The so-called Doha agreement was signed in February 2020 and set a date for the US to withdraw its troops. Gen Frank McKenzie said the deal had a "really pernicious effect" on the Afghan government and military. Defence Secretary Lloyd Austin agreed, saying the agreement had helped the Taliban get "stronger"." https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-58738953
  17. But there is a shortage of clowns ! https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-northern-ireland-58733754
  18. So Brexit isn't to blame, but the 'hard Brexit' trade deal has severely reduced the UK's options for recovery because we have opted out of all the mutual support mechanisms.
  19. Says the peddler in environmental poisons.
  20. Because the people who decide her professional status are smart enough to not listen to reactionary idiots such as you.
  21. For you to be calling other people stupid and gullible is highly ironic. ( In a non-Morissette way ).
  22. They do tests and trials in the UK as well, for exactly the same reasons; firstly to verify that the modified crop is viable and consistant in delivering the desired outcome. Secondly to ensure that the modified crop cannot interact and cross fertilise with naturally occurring species. Such trials and tets can take many years. What the UK Government seems to be doing is loosening the EU constraints, which are the most restrictive of any agricultural regulations in the World. Your point is ....?
  23. And when you come out with comments such as this, it shows Whelk has a point.
  24. Perhaps that comment was aimed at you because you had gone all 'Daily Express' and posted that Angela Raynor had "labelled the majority of the electorate as “Scum” along with the usual tiresome Labour insults like “racist” “mysoginist” “homophobic” etc etc " when in fact what she said was, in describing the Prime Minister and the Cabinet, "We cannot get any worse than a bunch of scum, homophobic, racist, misogynistic, absolute vile… banana republic, vile, nasty, Etonian… piece of scum,”. As there are plenty of examples of BoJo spouting vicious bile and then refusing point blank to apologise, she has a point.
