We are the second largest financial contributor , they need our money but the British people have had enough . The money spent weekly on crazy projects in EU countries should be used more wisely here in the UK . Maybe there wouldn't be any need for council tax increases if we kept more of our own money . The EU are beginning to show their true , nasty colours .

Going Postal.net is well worth a look , like walking into a decent pub in the 1980s , swearing is compulsory !

The site is going the same way as the Guardian for quite obvious reasons .

As I understand , the Chatsworth Estate was in receipt of around £200,000 of EU CAP subsidies a couple of years ago .Does anyone know how "Brexit" will impact upon this beautiful part of our countryside?

We cannot provide any reference to BB ( Breitbart) because this is a far right hate speech site . What a load of utter ******** , just lefties running scared of the truth ...

Thought all mention of "BB" was verboten on this site ?

I see the TTIP protesters have gone very quiet .

Guido and Zero hedge have some good links regarding this story .

Just thick as **** . losing the plot big style .

For goodness sake, the only thing that's missing is the oversized school cap ! ---------- Post added 29-11-2016 at 23:08 ---------- For goodness sake, the only thing missing is this joker's oversized school cap .

Yes it should

At least they have voted in a guy who is prepared to debate with the Russians rather than demonize them . If stability in Syria could be achieved by the extermination of ISIS ( easily done if there is a will to do so) then that would resolve the migrant problem...Except for those brutalised Albanians seeking asylum here.. War ...what war? Croyden deserves all it gets ?

Well, they get about £970 a month after tax for doing as little or as much as they can be arsed to do. Not a bad little earner. Best gig is to get into the House of Lords ( like Playschool's Floella Benjamin) £300 quid a day just for plonking your area down on a red seat for a few hours..x ---------- Post added 04-11-2016 at 22:37 ---------- Arse I meant

To be fair , I read the on-line Guardian with a peg on my nose and feel the need to go and have a shower after reading some of the articles . Know the enemy and all that!

The Guardian does not approve of cultural appropriation. People can only write literature if they have direct experience . So someone who is not a whale should not have written Mobey Dick... and Lionel Shriver should not have written the book We Need To Talk About Kevin because she's never mothered a mass highschool shooter? Where does this nonsense end? A Muslim woman on channel 4 last night was speaking in favour of the Sharia court system here in the UK. She was not only wearing a big loud poppy headscarf but was also wearing a poppy . What part of cultural appropriation does she not understand?

So amusing seeing posters tie themselves up in wordy knots over the use of language . It would be interesting to have this discussion in French for example, does anyone know if the French have a term for "virtue signalling"? Does anyone on this forum have a REAL JOB because I find it hard to believe that some posters are only managing to post on their lunch break. Personally the etymology of words would be the farthest thing on my mind during a lunch break.

One of the reasons I voted Brexit was that the weak , sick and disabled ( often through no fault of their own) go to the back of the queue when it comes to benefits . The figure quoted recently for councils to support a young Syrian ( or whatever) migrant is at least £40,000 a year , up to possibly £133k. The cost of supporting someone who let's say had a stroke part way through their productive working life is less than £9,000 a year for 21 hours of supported care each week. And that person will be subject to annual , invasive reviews as to whether their disability has changed - truly a waste of taxpayers' money .( At least they won't have invasive dental checks though...) So no. I don't think a vote for brexit has made us more callous towards the disabled , it has made us more outraged on their behalf .

Gutted that my thread title has been deemed "erroneous", silly me . Shut down by mere words... now where have I seen that happen before ?

Personally I prefer to keep good deeds or random acts of kindness to myself . Is there anything wrong with that? What I do get annoyed about is people jumping on this and that "charitable bandwagon" just because it's "cool/whatever" to do so . Call me an old fogie but young people should have to write a 200 word article in defence of whatever random cause they choose to support. Personally my plan to escape this hell which Sheffield has become will begin very , very soon xx

Honest hard work for an honest day's pay ??

After a hard day's work and catching up on news I've just picked up on Lily Allen's comments at the Calais camp. Apologising to a man child who looks to be in early 20's at least ( but claims to be 13 ...hard life??) for our actions and that she is apologising to him on behalf of UK people . Is she right , wrong, genuine or just misguided?

Has anyone seen this guy's videos on PlanetPrison etc on YouTube? Seems a very wise young man. Is he from Sheffield does anyone know? If so probably a better overseas export than steel these days... Very interesting take on Hillary Clinton's alleged health condition xx

Thank you for providing link to report x ---------- Post added 11-09-2016 at 21:21 ---------- Thank you for providing link to the article, much appreciated.

Looks like there will soon be 111 redundancies, according to the Star. Shame such contracts are not subject to Freedom of Information laws. So sorry for all those and their families who will be affected, don't know enough about it at the moment to comment further .

Cash is the only way to keep your privacy and stick 2 fingers up to data collectors such as that guy who developed the Tesco card. They tried to get all our personal health data held by our GPs via the Care data scheme. It didn't work because enough people caught on and opted out. Darn, eternal vigilance really is the price of freedom!! PS how much is a roll of tinfoil these days?
