Remember the saying "ne'er cast a clout" ?
My Mum used to say that, without a doubt

The Chat Room / Re: scam, scam, scam

I detest these wasters.
I do the same as Raven and let unknown numbers go straight to the answerphone. They never speak then.

I have also been getting loads of scam emails lately too. I've just cleared about 5 that came only this afternoon!

Quote from: CHF on May 20, 2026, 07:48:09 PMI don't want a row, but Tommy Robinson has been in prison plus he is known
for stirring things racially and has started or been involved in other anti-racial
movements.

Nigel Farage is far right in his politics, and some of his proposed policies are
unpleasant and threatening.

Donald Trump is downright nuts and dangerous with it, for the world.

These are all my honest opinions, and I suppose we must just agree to disagree
without becoming rude to each other or beligerant. If I have been either of these
things, I apologise.

Lots of people would agree with you, that's how the loony Greens have gathered so much momentum. However, they aren't representing the middle or moderate right wingers, which is where I stand. I'm really quite sad that it has taken someone with Tommy Robinson's reputation to get people like me on board. He was involved football thuggery, and has a criminal conviction for it for starters. But the moderates, on both sides of politics have for far too long been pussyfooting around issues like the grooming gangs, almost all of whom were Pakistani Muslims. Fear of upsetting the minorities. 🙄

I think Reform are already shaking up Labour, long may it continue.

Ask any Iranian (especially female) who has moved here to escape the regime in Iran what they think of Trump?

Quote from: muddy on May 21, 2026, 03:58:05 PMWe are all the same in the fact that we are human beings but we are not all the same in other ways .
Skin colour means nothing to me I have lived with dark skinned people most of my life .
I like dark skin it looks healthier ( even though it may not be .)
I like my own skin better when it's got a nice tan .
But what is different are cultural mores .
All cultures are not equal by a long shot .
Our Judeo - Christian culture and values are very different to some cultures and that is what the doctrine of multiculturalism has got so wrong .
We have tolerated culture habits that are totally alien to our own and this is noy only not good its consequences are horrendous .
Cruelty to animals is the first one .
It's best not to think too much about Halal slaughter without prestunning but just imagine haveing your own throat cut slowly and in brutal terrifying conditions.
Women are second class human beings .
This is wrong in every sense .
So if I were PM ritual slaughter without pre-stunning would stop tomorrow .
Full face coverings would be immediately made against the law .

Well said, Muddy. I agree with every word... well, apart from: "Women are second class human beings".
(Marge told me to add that)

Quote from: klondike on May 21, 2026, 02:55:22 PMIf we have armed police we'll get more armed criminals and doubtless some collateral damage and more mistaken shootings. They've shot a bloke carrying a table leg in the past. Plus the Brazilian electrician whose only crime was being a bit brown and there are doubtless others.

But we already have armed criminals, don't we?
