    I think every country makes its own history

    With this technology revolution we are all still growing into especially our generation we can also read and find out more whereas no doubt in my mind we were controlled and influenced in the past

    Look at Germany’s last 100 years

    Look at them now

    Yet for years we have had to watch war films where they crash their dreadfully engineered motorbikes into duck ponds

    Since then we have had Thatcher and Blair

    Thatcher was able to brainwash the nation via the BBC by saying this lady is not for turnips or Blair playing a puppet over WMD

    So pride imo is very selective amongst this generation in the UK

    A lot of people died

    There are now 320,000 homeless people in the UK. Of course, nearly all of them choose to be so, so it's okay.

    The charity Crisis estimated 9000 homeless in England earlier this year. Where does your figure come from?

    No need to be concerned then. Nothing to see here, move on.

    I know some of the snobs on here don’t like her voice but Stacy Dooley did a very interesting programme on the young and homeless. Opens your eyes to what is a shame in our country and how a lot of homelessness is hidden.

    I think she’s great. What snobs?

    It’s only since my wife has inflicted Strictly on me that Ive been aware of her, and have watched a few of her documentaries as a result. Very impressive.

    None of them are young enough for decent eyesight.

    Question Time a complete cluster **** tonight the panel and audience screaming at each other. The horrible Julia Hartley Brewer literally sneering and smirking, Clive Lewis completely useless, laughed at when he claimed Labour had a position. CEO of Iceland (a leaver, but inclined to accept the current deal) looking like he wishes he wasn’t there. Audience either seem to want a second referendum or a no deal.

    We are screwed, we hate each other. Turned over now.

    I don't think I've watched more than five minutes of QT at a time for the last couple of years. There is complete polarisation of political opinion in this country now (much like the US). That's why The Tories and Labour are pretty much fixed on 40% each in the polls. Both sides have retreated to their own corners, only converse with those of like opinions, and just yell abuse at each other across the ring rather than engage in any way.
