One of the very few I had respect for has passed away, Paddy Ashdown.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-46662546

I did not agree with all he stood for but I did respect him as he did not act like that shower we have. A better class of politician whom had better standards.

Jimbuna 12-23-18 06:35 AM

Not many like him left in Westminster.

RIP Paddy

Kettle crisps have issued a warning they could be moving aboard due to Brexit. I say good, I hope all the crisps cakes biscuits chocolate and all the rest can sod off. Britain's are to fat, the sooner we get back to a veg diet the better we all be.

Source SKY News. Sorry no links at the time of posting.

About time sugar was outlawed its a killer like cigarettes.

May and Corbyn deliver Christmas messages.

Quote:

Theresa May has used her Christmas message to praise the work of the Armed Forces, particularly in Syria and after the nerve agent attack in Salisbury.

The PM said UK forces had "continued to demonstrate why you are the finest in the world".

Meanwhile, Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn paid tribute to those who emulate the Good Samaritan in his Christmas message.

He drew on the Christian parable to applaud those who help others.

Who cares, these bloody ding dongs should be sorting the bloody Brexit mess out instead of getting drunk as skunks.

It is disgraceful this lot sod off on holiday leaving the country in a mess. You lot are a sham who do not deserve our vote. This year yet again you have shown what a disgrace you are, acting like out of control kinda garden kids and spoiled little brats.

Home Secretary Sajid Javid has defended highlighting the ethnicity of some grooming gangs.

The home secretary faced criticism for a tweet earlier this year referring to "sick Asian paedophiles".

But speaking on BBC Radio 4 Today, Mr Javid - who has Pakistani heritage - said that ignoring the ethnicity of abusers gives "oxygen" to extremists.

Tough and brave words Sajid but in the meantime....prepare fo incoming.

The 5p fee for plastic carrier bags in England will be doubled to 10p, and extended to all shops, under plans set out by the environment secretary.

You can make it £1000 for all I care, never use the bloody things. :O:

I'd be having far greater security concerns over this...

Quote:

The Defence Secretary has reportedly said he has "very deep concerns" about Chinese firm Huawei being involved in upgrading the UK's mobile network.

Gavin Williamson's comments - reported by the Times - came after some nations restricted use of the firm's products in 5G networks over security concerns.

MI6's head recently said Britain faced decisions on Chinese ownership of tech.

The UK says China is behind hackers targeting commercial secrets. Huawei denies any link to the Chinese state.

Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn has urged the prime minister to cut short MPs' Christmas break to allow for an earlier vote on her Brexit deal.

MPs are due back in the Commons on 7 January, and Theresa May has said the vote on the EU withdrawal agreement will take place the following week.

However, in an interview with the Independent website, Mr Corbyn said it must happen "as soon as possible".

A Downing Street source told the Press Association it was a "silly demand".

Why does he continue in this pathetic pointless manner when he doesn't have the gonads to push for a Parliamentary vote of no confidence in the government? :hmmm:

Immigration minister Caroline Nokes is to visit Dover amid growing criticism of the government's handling of the surge in migrants crossing the Channel.

More than 220 people have tried the crossing in small boats since the start of November and Home Secretary Sajid Javid has declared a "major incident".

That's it then, everything sorted now no doubt :doh:

The UK will spend more than £100m chartering extra ferries to ease "severe congestion" at Dover, in the case of a no-deal Brexit.

Over the last few months, additional ferry contracts were awarded to French, Danish and British companies.

The contingency plans allow for almost 4,000 more lorries a week to come and go from other ports, including Plymouth, Poole, and Portsmouth.

The UK Chamber of Shipping said customs procedures were a bigger problem.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-46704522
The extra capacity is all well and good but doesn't resolve the customs problem.

We can all relax the Gold Commander is doing his job keeping these illegals away. Shuffling paper committee meetings and interviews on the news while buffing up their gold bars. I feel so safe now I can get a good nights sleep knowing the Gold Commander has ordered a truck load of paper clips. :salute:
