PaulZKTV:
yes he is not a fascist ,he is a neo-fascist - and if im right the indigenous people on the island of GB (Indigenous communities, peoples, and nations are those that, having a historical continuity with pre-invasion and pre-colonial societies that developed on their territories) are now living in wales and cornwall and west scotland .
England seems to be pretty crowded though! I’m not sure I know what you are saying?

So you believe that to have control over what happens in your country is some form of fascism? Farage wanting some sensible form of control over what affects those living in the UK comes as subordinate to what those who come empty handed, have never lived there, have never contributed to the system they want to be part of (often on their terms) and their wishes should take priority over those that live here already? You think that is being a fascist? :roll:

You are happy to see your childrens/grandchildrens education suffer because the authorities are required by EU legislation to give priority to those that do not speak English as their first language. You prefer the priorities should go to immigrants for housing and beds in hospitals rather than impose some sort of control on their their entitlement ............ etc, You regard controlling this as being fascist? Is fascism?

As for the riff-raff - that how you got in this mess ,by having lots of young fit natives sitting on their arse drinking beer ,while you blame someone else for the state of the UK ...MAYBE AT LONG LAST YOU WILL WAKE UP and get your own house in order .


Yes ....... and that means controlling entry to those that are a benefit to the UK .......... not streams of young healthy males with hormones on overdrive sitting around all day waiting for the next hand out or the next pretty girl to come along so they can molest them. Isn’t that they are reputed to do. :roll:

If you live outside the UK robin hood ,then with the pound at 1.00 to 1.10 and no health cover ,then you maybe end up ´back home ´ walking the streets in the rain.

Cyprus is my home and FYO information the £ has risen 4 cents against the $ and currently at €1.21 and rising against the Euro .......... about 3c below what it was on June 16th. All my wealth is in Cyprus, I live in most of it and even that has gone up in value by about 3% since last Thursday! Oh .... and by the way, I still have health cover .... I checked! Don’t listen to scare mongers your right to Cyprus healthcare is assured.

'Get back to Africa': Teenage boys filmed launching 'disgusting' racist abuse on Manchester tram

You get idiots and extremists in all societies ..... many of them manifest themselves on websites and forums where they can throw insults at those they hate with anonymity. Tell me that calling someone an idiot and a moron because their view happens not to be coincident with theirs .... is anything other than a fascist outburst!

A man is walking around with his passport on display as a 'safety precaution' after Brexit

As I said, you get idiots in all societies! An example of the way you can be fed something that is not what it seems; My wife is Polish and was reading a note written by a Polish hater ..... she said the polish grammar was near perfect and it was probably written by someone who spoke fluent Polish. Not an easy language to be fluent in and the grammar is complex.

BTW: She also carries our passports around with her ..... because she is worried about fires .... we live close to the forest. :roll:

Wow .....I'm impressed that was real quick ...... referendum result Thursday and by Tues he has sold up all his stock, settled the terms of his lease,cleared the fixtures and fittings and white washed the windows ..... maybe even laid off some staff! Do you think maybe you have missed something here? :roll:


I haven't missed a thing, mate. Businesses open and close all the time. Even in good economic times, there's bound to be a shop closing somewhere. The assertion that absolutely no shops whatsoever have closed down since the referendum is idiotic.

ONE WAY TO MAKE SURE BORIS THE CLOWN DOESN'T BECOME PM

I've just heard from somebody in the UK who has held their nose and joined the Conservative party, just so they can vote against the *******.

What a funny world. I'm waiting to pay my second £3 (the price of a cheese sandwich in Islington) to make sure Jeremy's re-elected. Good move for Labour, "tombstone" Ed. :wink:

I think there's a rule for minimum 6 month membership before you can vote.

Drat. You've looked into that, I take it?

(I one heard that somebody, for a joke, kept going to the same offices of the Conservative party with only a change of clothing and giving a different name each time, asked to join and was signed up by the same person without a blink of the eye. One time he went in only his underpants, and it made no difference. On one visit he signed up as Darth Vader. I'm told it's true.)

Hehe, that's funny! :D

But, no, I haven't looked into it - last thing I want is "conservative" links all over my computer.

I'm going on what I recalled was the case when I first joined the LibDems years ago. It makes sense to me so I naturally think that would be the case.

I'm not convinced, I'm afraid, although it is not impossible. Most leading politicians are already talking about this result by a flimsy margin being something that must be respected. MPs will probably have to vote along party lines rather than it being a free vote, although there could be some dissenters.


Is "flimsy margin" a euphemism for "majority"? I think it was something like a million more votes to leave and 4%. Enough to form a government. Speaking of which. At my age, I wish to God I could have petulantly called for another round of voting on some of the appalling governments that have inflicted their policies on the UK over the past 50 years with such a slender majority. It's known as "The tyranny of democracy". You really need to calm down and think about what you're advocating.

With extreme apologies to RH.


Don't apologise to me .... I can only agree with you completely ! :D :roll: :wink:

I also have a strong belief that the system of veto should also be abandoned as it is entirely undemocratic............. especially in the UN Security Council and like International bodies.

I understand your POV but frankly, if that were to happen suspect that the UN would simply evaporate. Realpolitick

If you had a grain of common sense and the ability to apply it you would realise how childish your post was. :roll:
