Somewhere along the line, we became a nation of pusillanimous pisswits, it’s true.

I blame The Sun and The Mail for terrifying their readers for decades, with spurious threats about whatever that month’s chosen enemy was (Trade Unions, immigrants, woke lefties etc)

 

On a side note, can we swap wife's in Chandlers Ford and is there an obligation to pick her back after? Asking for a friend

 

I swapped my wife. All I got was a broken fishing reel, I felt cheated, didn't get a rod with it.

 

"Over the last 30 years there have been historic errors made, on a horrifying scale, the disastrous right-to-buy policy without replacement, on treating homes as financial assets, and on Nimbyism enshrined in planning law - causing unaffordable housing, severely damaging family formation, cratering birth rates, and creating a dependency on mass immigration to sustain our economy and care system. It is very big, scary stuff. I wish we didn't have to face it, but we must..."

I'll miss out the extreme pantie ***tng bit at the end. The screed is like smearing it on the walls, while wearing a monocle.

 

Fair enough. People can draw their own conclusions from your posts and my reply.

 

You'll have to ask Thumwood. I can't tell you your friend what the rules are.

 

Don't forget the flag shagging, far right, fascist Nazi extremists that are everywhere. We have a number of posters on here who have expressed their concern about the safety of their wives. No one, including you, suggested they were pusillanimous pisswits for their fear of spurious threats. In fact there were sympathetic noises about how awful it must be for them.
I'm not suggesting their fears are not real but the double standards on here is pathetic.

Oooh, flag shaggers =

Extreme religious nutters with previous =

I blame the BBC, The Guardian and the Daily Mirror.

 

It’s ironic really: for an institution accused of being “woke,” the last time I looked the Beeb was being run by Tim Davie, a former Tory council chairman, while the former press secretary and political adviser to five Conservative PMs, Sir Robbie Gibb - owner of the ultra-conservative Jewish Chronicle - sat as an influential governor.

Yet people insist the BBC is shorthand for their idea of a baked-in leftist organisation. Post-Thatcher, they usually bend toward establishment narratives rather than challenging them. They have some ethnic presenters

Surface things: some diversity, socially liberal presenters, a bit of mild cultural pluralism - rather than any shift in it's core editorial behaviour.

While it transpires some people want to see and almost feel the beer-stained patina of a Question Time regular’s rival spin-off show - “Farage: Live" presented from a pub-styled studio - three times a week on GBeebies.

 

I blame the taxi driver source for the gatemouthed gobshite Faridge's assertion that London would be under sharia law.
