Off Topic Politics Thread (no personal schizzle)

I ****ing wish. You seen what they earn? I’m too old unfortunately, they won’t spend thousands training an old git like me even if I passed all the assessments.


I work on the platforms.

 

They do have leave clearing trains that blast the tracks with water jets. But they are expensive, there’s still an issue with track access, and leaves fall 24 hours a day in autumn.

 

A 15-year-old girl is in a critical condition and 19 others were injured after a bus crash in the south London borough of Croydon.

A route 198 double-decker bus is believed to have collided with a car, another bus and a bus shelter just after midday on Sunday, police said.

The teenage girl was a passenger on the double-decker.

She was treated by ambulance crews at the scene before being taken to a hospital in south London.

Seventeen of the others injured were also taken to hospital, with mostly minor injuries.

The male driver of the double-decker bus was arrested on suspicion of failing a roadside drugs screening test and is in custody at a police station in south London.

Well get shifting those leaves, they are a health and safety hazard.

 

I’ll get me pitchfork

 

Good man, put them all in a bin and burn them.. Leave smoke is class, it really ****s everyone off.

 

Donga, is Archers a train driver?

 

Don’t think so


@brb , is Donga banned?

 

Looks like it. I thought he’d just been thread banned from the Politics thread, but looking at his account I think he’s been put in the clink.

 

Pissed pilots, probably not the best idea in the world.

A pilot responsible for safety and training operations at Air India has been suspended after he failed two breathalyser tests before a flight to London.

Arvind Kathpalia, who is also director of operations at the the state-owned airline, was declared unfit to fly the plane from New Delhi on Sunday following a pre-flight medical examination for alcohol.

The Indian air safety watchdog stated on Monday that he would have his licence revoked for three years.

While he acknowledged that he had failed the check-ups, Mr Kathpalia had told Reuters news agency he planned to contest the results.

Speaking before his suspension was confirmed, he said: "It was 1.30 in the afternoon, only a bloody stark-raving alcoholic is bloody drunk at 1.30 in the afternoon.

"I am going to contest this."

Mr Kathpalia, who claims he was the victim of internal feuding within Air India, was only appointed at the loss-making airline in June 2017 and had already run afoul of alcohol tests before the latest incident.

Oops, wrong fred

 

Yes. I'm reluctant to let him back after the last tirade aimed at me. If i can get some reassurance then i will let him back, but as i say I'm very reluctant after the last unprovoked attack by him.

 

I missed that. What he say?

 

^^^^Com is racist

 

I deleted it but from memory, something to do with me not dealing with Duncs i think. He thinks I'm a kunt basically. He is allowed his opinion but it was totally unprovoked, and he decided to jump on my words towards Toby. Getting involved in between me and Toby, a guy who wants me to hang myself is never going to be the brightest move.

 

Did Duncan report his posts?

 

The view from Ireland.

Brexit shows that idiots and incompetents are in charge in the UK

To add, what annoys me is people jump all over me, withoit knowing what is going on privately.

Duncs sent RCC an apology. I then personally PM'd RCC, to check he got the apology. The rest i have no intention of explaing here, the conversations were private.

So someone randomly coming into kick me again when i'm trying to do my unseen best, is not needed in the aid of ppl either trying to win arguments or make some public display of look at me, having a go at the admin guy.

 

No not at all.

I was having a chilled out day, talking non league football. I get a notification where out the blue, Donga is ripping into me.
