caroline flack

[ogri48]

yup. it was about caroline flack, wasn't it originally? im just giving up on threads once they turn to boris/Brexit bashing. its fucking ridiculous.

So it's alright when nationalism and patriotism sweeps across Scotland then?

Nationalism most certainly has not swept across Scotland.  There is a world of difference between an inclusive movement for self-determination and home rule, which has swept across Scotland, and indeed has strengthened as a result of BREXIT, and the nationalism that is sweeping across England.

Grahamm tried to politicise it first with a dig at the Conservative government in his post #41. My posts were a response to that.

[Grahamm]

Remember, HE is the sole reason Labour got the worst results ever.

No, HE is the ONLY person or thing that you are heaping all the blame on.

And the Brexit topic is over there --

[Grahamm]

who, or what, is your solution to to 'the mess'?.

You already know the answer to that, but you won't accept it "Because DEMOCRACY!!!11111!!!!oneoneoneeleventyone!!!111!!!"

And, as I've said to darrsi the Brexit topic is that way --

[darrsi]

On a more relevant side note, i just read that Kirk Douglas left his entire $61million fortune to charity.
That's a very generous thing to do, and it's not like his immediate family was short of a few quid, but i think i would've left some to them regardless if it was me.

Not a lot really I would of thought he had a bit more than that. If he was sparticus today in a movie he would be paid 61M for one film.

Family friend of ours scored a goal in a very early 1960's FA Cup Final match, i'm sure i remember him saying he was on about £30 a week wages back then.


Michael Douglas is worth about $300million, so he hasn't done too bad either.

Up until December 1960, the FA had a maximum wage ceiling of £20 a week for footballers, so early 60's and 30 quid a week is very likely. Johnny Haynes became the first £100 a week player after the players union, led by Jimmy Hill, overturned the FA maximum wage ruling in January 1961.

Money these days for football, and boxing, is obscene.

...I'll take that as 'No I don't have an alternative solution' then :thumbup

[Grahamm]

You can take it as anything you want. It doesn't make you right.

The answer is obvious (to anyone who isn't wedded to an ideology).
PS And the answer can be found in that thread over there -

....loads of posts defending Labour and Corbyn in particular.
So I was right to start with .

If it pleases you to think that your wrong assumptions were right, far be it for me to bother to waste time trying to disabuse you of them.

Very sad that someone has died. However if the tables had turned and it was a man in this situation, I’m not sure the public would be so forgiving.
Would a man who had dated a 17 year old girl, who had (allegedly)attacked two other women before, and was said to have attacked his sleeping girlfriend with a bedside lamp be called “beautiful” in the press and magazines. I think not.

Today on the BBC morning news they had the walking bloke in his speedo's in the studi (in his speedo's) Dan said "now is all over you can get some clobber on" then Sally Nugent pipped up looking at speedo man " Oh I don't know I quite like the speedo's ".
Imagine the calls for the presenter to to be removed if it were a bloke looking at a woman in a bikini in the studio.

[YamFazFan]

The female presenters on the 'Loose Women' programme are some of the biggest hypocrites for that sort of thing.
