Putin seems determined to sabre rattle and prove he's a 'big boy' hence the Ukraine, Crimea and Georgia before that. I'm of the opinion that the more he is allowed to get away with, the more he will do. I'm convinced he wishes to re-build the 'iron curtain' Doesn't help when USA keeps signing up Eastern European countries into NATO or building miltary bases close to Russia, especially when they have a history of being invaded and are therefore a little paranoid....

terrorism is the modern bogey-man for governments. Definetly a threat from IS that needs eradicating but not at the expense of civil liberties.

Don't think the Jews are planning to attack us, what's your theory on that one?

I dont think i said the Jews,

I'm pretty sure I said the zionists, and, I dont think they will directly attack us, but they may cause massive carnage,

ok, and its only a theory, and perhaps a crazy one,

zionist israel is going to push Palestine so hard that another Arab state is going to end up getting involved,

then israel will punish Palestine and try and get usa to punish the other Arab state, remember, the usa has lots of 'allies' in Arab nations, because they have oil,

a few more Arab nations will get involved to the stage israel decides to hammer Palestine,

the Arabs will then really punish israel to the stage that israel decides it has to use or threaten to use nuclear weapons, thats where WW3 will come from,

IMHO

remember, israel is a political nation stolen from the Arabs, it has absolutely nothing to do with the Jewish religion, it is zionist,

no true or proper Jew can have affiliation to israel, even though it pretends to be a Jewish state, that is a lie,

Palestine and all its lands were promised to the Arabs, [including what is now known as israel], long before someone else promise the bit of land now called israel to the zionists,

 
Steps, do please pay attention, I don't vote labour,
thankfully,

as after seeing how much disrespect he had for our war veterans in not honouring them at the recent battle of Britain memorial,

this appeared, which I didnt even know about, which just goes to show how big a BS er he actually is , try and find something where anyone actually involved in the peace process says he was engaged,,,,,,

how can you possibly have a leader of the UK parliment that supports the murder of British citizens?

 
the history of the middile east is complicated, it was Jewish after Moses left Eygpt, then the Romans dispanded the state due to 'terrorism' / 'freedom fighting'as we would know it today and depending whos' side you are on and hence ever since the Zionists have regarded that region as their long lost homeland. Nevr mind the more recent history that we have been involved in, promising land that isn't ours....

Israel only exisits because of their military might, they are terrified any Arab state develops the nuclear bomb, and the Arab states will destroy them given a chance and Israel will bomb any nation about to threaten them, so the WW3 scenario is all too real a possibility.

not singing the national anthem is  understandable for a republican, and shows some back-bone in my opinion. It certainly shouldn't be viewed as an insult to the armed forces.  I think I know why the IRA thing is there, victims exist on both sides, bit like his 'support' of the PLO, Israel does terrible things too. BUT if there is one area of politics I don't want to get involved with its Northern Ireland. I'd rather try to convince Apache of global warming any day.

Have to say though, it's good to see some conviction politicians back, whether you like them or not. I'm interested in what economic policies Corbyn comes up with and will vote for change as i normally do, which might even be UKIP this time, anything to shake up stale poilitics! Previously it has been mostly Labour (Tory light version) Green, Lib Dems and Monster Raving Loonies. We shall have to wait and see.

try replacing the Northern Ireland and ireland reference with The Falklands, and the ira with Argentinian army,

do you really think,

we should have a leader, that thinks giving away parts of the United kingdom or British Isles is a good thing?

someone that will not condemn or denounce anyone that murders British soldiers or British citizens would be a good leader?

someone that aligns himself with a terrorist organisation that murders to get its own will would be a good leader for a British democracy?

do you think we should give Gibraltar to the Spanish, and the Falklands to Argentinia?

Mr Corbyn obviously does, ,,,,,,,,

BTW,

really sorry for a massive hi-jack on your thread Barx,  :|

 
the man is anti-war and believes in dialogue. He was anti Iraq war as well, which as you point out was basically illegal.  However, what he's doing now is different to his days as a back bencher from where throwing bananas is easy. They just voted to keep trident, and he does believe in listening to the party. I haven't studied Corbyns past, but I'm sure the right wing press has been digging up anything they can throw at him. Why is it right wingers think they are the only defenders of the realm? Still don't understand how we have Gibraltar....it's like having the Gower peninsula annexed by a foriegn power ( and I don't mean the Welsh)

so, why has he NEVER apologised or commented on his opinions for what the ira did in NI,?

YES, thats right, he simply blanked the question 4 times on  radio Ulster as to why he said the ira killing British soldiers and British citizens was legitimate, and that was not long ago,

so, tell me how anyone that is anti-British has a right to be a member of the BRITISH PARLIMENT,?

He point blank refused to sing the national anthem, whether it was as disrespect to our fallen heroes or just as disrespect to our Queen is irrelevant, a person like that doesnt even deserve to be in this country and is no better than the rest of the leeches that come here,

do you still think that the Falklands should be handed to Argentinia?

seems your friend mr corbyn does?

do you think the British government should give back every bit of land they have to whoever lays claim to it?

that seems to be mr corbyns view,

you cannot pick and chose which bits you want and forget the rest,

why should he apologise, the man has an opinion and is entitled to it, maybe at the time, he was trying to bring about peace by talking to the IRA / Sein Fein, maybe he thinks this is still the case as the old guard 'Real IRA' are still lurking and educating a younger generation, and so are the old guard UVF and UDF who murdered quite a few Irish people which you seem to suggest is legitimate? Maybe he thinks that doing anything to provoke the old guard will result in a resurrection of the violence? My own view, murder is wrong full stop, and quite frankly if I was Irish I would want that chunk of my country back. Bombs and bullets isn't the way to get it though.

I'll think you will find Corbyn is very British and wants to see the country run for all the people. As for the Queen, I quite like the Queen, but the reality of any Royal family is that they got to be royal by murdering half their relatives and stealing money from everyone. Every time I sing the national anthem, I do wonder about praising this person who wants to 'rule over me' in a very unelected, undemocratic way. This doesn't make me anti-British, it makes my politics different to yours. I wouldn't be so interested in politics if I didn't love this country, and want to see it thrive so all our children get a decent life.

The Falklands, we were there first and the population wants to be British - it's ours. Why did the Argies invade, cos someone cut the defence budget and cancelled the South Atlantic patrols, thereby indicating to the Junta that we didn't care (as warned by the foreign office) - another false economy resulting in hundreds of dead, and many Post Traumatic Stress victims, some of which are still wandering around the streets of Plymouth. Most having died from drinking/ drugs. I still think we should cancel Trident (25% of the defence budget) and use the money to rebuild the Navy Army and Airforce, things we can actually use. We couldn't fight another Falklands war now.

Why have we got so many empire hangovers? What is the benefit to the UK? We invaded for economic reasons originally. Most of the of the land we invaded has already been handed back. Each location needs assessing on its own merits, to me the main crteria should be what the majority local population wants, hence I do support keeping Northern Ireland. We are not a major world power anymore, we can't afford to be. To get that status back we need to rebuild the economy first. To me this is far more important than nationalistic tub thumping, singing songs, and odd out crops of rock in parts of the world I haven't heard of.

What I do like about Corbyn is that he is trying to run a truly democratic party and has already changed policy to suite, despite whatever views he has / had in the past. This is so unusual I don't quite know what to make of it yet, or the man himself. Jury is out!

 
I hope so, the left wing tends to be far more environmentally conscious. They also seem to be less destructive to micro business like mine. To be frank, by the time he gets elected, if he ever gets elected it really won't matter. The industry will have been decimated.

 
Ed never made it to power? But the green levies are mostly the result of EU legislation agree by UK parties over many years. The closure of Redcar is more to do with imported steel from third world countires that have no standards (or very few) yet are allowed to sell their products here regardless. This is what I was refering to on another post about not fighting on a level playing field. All we have done is export pollution and jobs to the third world - pointless.

Ultimately it was the investors that chose to shut the plant down despite being the most efficient it has ever been, it's called 'free market capitalism'.

My own leaning is Tory light, hence I quite liked 'New Labour' and the last government kept under some control by the Lib Dems wasn't too bad, but now the Tories have 5 years of unfettled freedom, expect the worst.

If the DNO were like Germany's utility companies then all their LV/HV Transformers would have on-load tap changers on them, this means as the solar pushes the voltage up the taps switch on load to stop the effect of a higher voltage

However if you take a look at all the DNO equipment (inc the new stuff fitted) its all pre-war design in that they do not spend more than they possibly can so the shareholders get their massive cut at the end of the year

And remember why should most DNOs pump money into this country and not do it on the cheap - bear in mind the country of shareholders they answer to sometimes isn't britian - cos we sold it all........

Its a voltage thing Barx, see above, its all about money.........

:slap :slap :slap

sorry Barx, but i get fed up with people moaning about the state of the country but still voting in the same government. We have basically had 30 years of the same policies, even the last Labour goverment was Tory-light, and the country hasn't got better. 30 years is firkin long time to keep making the same mistakes, but it seems to suite the political elite and the wealthy types for the country to remain on the same course. So call me slightly strange bit something needs to change, and I wish to promote discussion.
I'm not moaning anout the state of the country, for me its never been better, perhaps I'm one of the richer getting richer

 
TBH

we could go on and on about each government in turn,

the truth of the matter is this,

when a government takes office, it is left with a lot of legacies from agreements the previous government agreed to,

like it of not,

Labour has had to take on some stuff the tories signed up to,

as have the tories/condems had to take on a load of stuff that 'satans son himself' [ sorry ]  signed up to,

personally, I have NEVER voted tory in my life, and, unless it gets very cold, thats VERY VERY cold in hell, its unlikely I will ever vote labour,

yep, I thought Maggie was great, unfortunately, although I was a British citizen, I didnt get a vote for her,

and, TBH, I have never seen the point in any tory leader since.

to even it up a bit, Blair was, imo, just the mouthpiece of his wife, and some cronies, but, his wife mostly, and I cant remember a decent labour leader in my lifetime,

thats the problem with all 3 of the 'main' parties now, career politicians,

nothing to do with education or school, they simply see it as a career, and not a vocation,

really, the only party I see with a clear conviction is UKIP,

yep, a lot of stupid ideas, but a lot of good ones too,

but, they need someone to shake them up and make them realise they cant simply dump ALL benefits and give the money to the defence budget,

they just need to get their ideas sensible to what might actually work,

I think ther EU OUT is the one that is scaring the others right now,

and, personally I think it might just giver us some control back, after all, what other party even considered it before the last election until they saw the support for it.?

Im not saying they are the party, just that I think they are the party to shake the others up with some fresh ideas about what the average working man on the ground actually wants.

 
Vote UKIP and fear being called xenophobic!

I see what  you mean though. :C

As kerch would say... too many fiddly didlers in politics!

We should see it like the French, they work for us really and if they don't sort it out we will cut off their heads and set fire to stuff! that would make them work a bit harder and stop them from thinking short term.

Its why they like Johnny Foreigner so much and are keen to ship more in So they can keep their comfy job and keep their friends in business as the general population can barely speak english and have no idea whats going on other than that man gave me council house I will vote for him.

This probably makes no sense whatsoever :lol: been up half the night and soon I have to go to work for twats.....
