    It looks like one of those reunion shows. TJ Hooker 50 years later.

    I must have missed Starmer condemning this piece of racism, "full force of the law" and all that selective hard line guff. Maybe a few pictures in the media to root out the perpetrator followed by a stiff sentence to deter others, and space made in jail specially them obviously.

    The Manchester brothers that Goldsmith refers to are the ones that sparked out a female police officer at the airport in July and who have still not been charged. Luckily for them they weren't far right, EDL football hooligans who shouted at a police dog.

    Well, just report this clip to the police and I am sure they will act on it. The decision on of one officer on the ground is not indicative of the whole police force. Also, why is this so edited down? I hope they have the whole recording as this won’t be enough to prosecute anyone. We need the context of what was said before. The phrasing is weird and sounds like reported speech. May well be something horrible but this video is too short to judge. But yeah, you can report this and the police have to act. Why don’t you do that?

    Oh, that’s fine then. Only 500 independent farmers a year that won’t be able to pass on their farm that they’ve worked for generations on to their family


    Why do you guys think assets are the same as money in the bank?

    Most of them simply want to hand a farm down through the generations and continue their way of life - someone like you would smear them as a millionaire and demand they hand it over to the state.

    These farmers know the land, care about the land. What will happen now is they are forced to sell, big corps will take over and pay even less tax because corp tax is incredibly easy to avoid compared with inheritance tax.

    This is the politics of idiots. Farmers deserve help, following the disastrous amounts of bureaucracy and costs placed on them.

    Instead they are being attacked, AGAIN. It makes me furious tbh

    Everything makes you furious. You’re so unbalanced it’s tipped over into parody.

    Right, Tom and I have had a word. This thread is becoming far too contentious, not in terms of opposing points of view, which is essentially what it’s here for, but in terms of personal insults.

    So from now on there will be ZERO TOLERANCE OF PERSONAL ATTACKS ON ANY MEMBER BY ANY OTHER MEMBER.

    THERE WILL BE NO FURTHER WARNINGS, JUST A PERMANENT BAN FROM THIS THREAD.

    Adding to this, it really shouldn't be difficult to all be civil to one another, regardless of your political view. Having said that, this thread would be a much nicer place if the more extreme views were toned down somewhat. Don't need to change your opinion, just make posts less confrontational.

    I'm only here to watch the falling outs and personal attacks.

    Rightly so. Attacks on farmers have been going on for a long time. It’s such a difficult and important job and it’s being made virtually impossible by the government.

    Communists target farmers because they control the food. Stalin did it and it led to 7 million Russians starving because central control doesn’t work.

    For some reason the socialists in the EU/WEF/Liebour think that they can expropriate them with different consequences. It is extremely foolish.

    ‘President Biden has authorized the first use of U.S.-supplied long-range missiles by Ukraine for strikes inside Russia, per NYT’

    Ah the military industrial complex can’t have Trump coming in and making peace… gonna try and kick WW3 off before they are forced out, huh

    Or, giving Ukraine a chance to gain back some ground before the inevitable peace talks begin. I imagine Trump was briefed on this course of action when he met Biden the other day.

    Now look what you've done. It's been nearly 2 hours since this was posted and there's been only 4 posts since. They're all ****ed for something to say if you've got to be nice to each other. <laugh>
