    Here goes:emoticon-0107-sweat:
    I hope Labour lose their deposit in the new byelection. Then maybe Messrs. Abbott, McDonall etc will realise that with Jeremy at the helm they'll lose their seats at the next general election. I imagine a few other Labour MP's are job-hunting as well.

    You mean the ones that are any good and are capable of getting a job outside the Corbyn Party?

    The PLP were elected before Jeremy The Nice became "leader". It's the new members who are fanatical Corbynistas.

    The trump presidency is going to be a unique experience. He'll have to spend most of his time on twitter, lashing out at all and sundry.

    He is an utter, utter embarrassment. A bloke that can be drawn out so easily, is in charge of the largest nurclear warhead arsenal in the world.

    Have there been any recent approval ratings/polls in the States?

    Wouldn't be surprised if he's still polling well...

    Cut funding for the poor and spend on nukes when they already have enough to destroy the world 20 times over. Funnily enough the people who voted for him will be the most
    affected by his tenure.

    The outgoing administration has set up everything for a nuclear attack on China. It just needs someone to give the order.

    Another Labour MP, Tristram Hunt, jumps ship to avoid the carnage at the next General Election.

    Can you imagine our press being bullied the way trump is bullying the American press?

    Hard Brexit is what I voted for, the Harder the better. <cheers>

    I would go even further, and offer the 3m Eastern Europeans who have come here since 2004, a cash payment to return.

    Pardon my ignorance - but what is there to celebrate yet? I can only speak from my experience, but invoicing is becoming a huge headache right now with conversion rates etc. (this is of corse seperate to my farming business.)

    The unknown still scares me ****less personally. From current experience, being a start up business is seemingly carrying more challenges with this.

    I would restrict it to all the Eastern Europeans who have settled here since Labour's dishonest accession deal in 2004 - the one they hushed up. That would involve around 2m immigrants including 860,000 Poles.
    The Govt should offer them £500 to return home - a lot of money in most of their homelands. This can easily be done once we have pulled out of the EU in 2019 and have proper control of our borders. We simply do not need that number of people and the pressure they are putting on our services. It is not fair to their own countries either - they need plumbers and latte makers in Latvia and Estonia as much as we do.
