It’s called capitalism.

Oh, get off; it’s called jealousy and greed, and the desire for something without actually working for it.

£126 and a week later my car cost £252 to repair; £76 and a week later I needed £152 to repair the car. I got the message, and gave up.

he would, wouldn’t he?.He is a Politician.

Which, of course, to an old cynic, suggests two distinct possiblities:-
1/. The whole thing was dreamed up by an Opposition MP, just to cause mischief.
2/. The “idea” came from a government source, knowing the furore it would cause, thereby enabling a little game of double bluff, where the plot is very publicly dropped, and another, equally sneaky, but less damaging, is slid in in its place.

If I was a woman shop assistant, I wouldn’t want to handle them.

If I was a male shop assistant, I wouldn’t want to handle homosexual-promoting magazines, so we would both rapidly be out of a job, since we’re there to serve the customers, not have hissy fits at their preferences.

It isn’t the nudity (or near-nudity) that is the problem but the message that women are simply lumps of meat who exist only for the purposes of male sexual gratification.

Straight from the Germaine Greer text-book on female equality, that, and, coming from someone whose domain name’s last five letters have often been used as a demeaning title for attractive young women, it has to be one of the funniest remarks of the year.

Surely, we are sufficiently grown-up as a nation to consign these publications to the history books?

In the way the Nazis got rid of books, they didn’t like, perhaps?

Sorry, but you’re asking those, who have absolutely no knowledge of the situation, to speculate, which is totally invidious. Were the armed officers on the driver’s side? We don’t know. Were the car’s windows open, giving them unobstructed aim? We don’t know. Did they have to get out on the passenger’s side, and drop to the floor, because the attackers were thought to be carrying guns, meaning they only had four legs to aim at, under the car’s chassis? We don’t know.

Just had this sent to me :-
Climate change update:-
According to yesterday’s report to the Commerce Department from the consulate at Bergen, Norway: The Arctic Ocean is warming up, icebergs are scarcer, and in some places seals are finding the water too warm. Reports from fishermen, hunters and explorers point to a radical change in climate and unheard-of temperatures in the Arctic zone. Hardly any ice has been met as far north as 81 degrees, 29 minutes.
Soundings to a depth of 3,100 meters showed the Gulf Stream very warm.
Great masses of ice have been replaced by moraines of earth and stones while many well-known glaciers have disappeared.
Very few seals and whitefish are found in the eastern Arctic, while vast schools of smelts and herring which have never before ventured so far north are being encountered at the old seal fishing grounds.
It is predicted that within a few years the ice melt will cause the sea to rise and make most coastal cities uninhabitable.

I apologize, I neglected to mention that this report was from Nov. 2, 1922, as reported by the Associated Press in the Washington Post, 90 years ago!

Waiting till one is in the shower, when the running water noise covers break-in noises, is prime time.

They must come severely unstuck, if the householder uses the old-fangled bath, then.

When the first heterosexual sues, over lesbian/gay magazines, the whole idea will be quietly dropped.
