Me being a far rightie alt-right and obvious climate denier does the same. The "charidee bags" which come through my door almost daily are used as bin liners, and I always have a bag in my pocket to use if I go shopping. If we do a planned shop then we take more. Being honest I have always taken "my own*" bags to the shops because the ones they were giving out were crap.

*of course they aren't really my own because they came from other shops but I mean the ones that are a better quality than the flimsy ones the supermarket were giving out towards the end of the "free bag" era.

On your last point I don't leave any bags out for charity. I put my charity things in the charity bins at the fire station. Clothes, Shoes, Toys. Unless it is designer and then I stick it on ebay for someone else to use.
what's your ebay username Imps?
 
As I have said before unbeknown to me all of my grandchildren eligible to vote voted out........I did ask them a couple of months ago....as it came up in conversation. I was surprised as the all come in the 18 to 30 bracket.

There is a narrative that young people did this and did that. Doesn't explain all the kids in Lincoln sending each other selfies with Farage when he visited the other week. Doesn't explain my Portuguese wife thinking he should be PM. My son showed her one of his mate's selfies and she had a moan that no-one told her because she would have gone into town to see him.
 
more referendums? I agree we can't keep doing it. We should absolutely stick to the original vote! (you know, the one in 1975 when 67% voted to join the EU)

voted to remain in the Common market you mean. It wasn't a vote to join. The politicians had already joined. The public never voted to join.

you can't define all kids only using a sample of 3 from Lincoln Imps

Not telling you ;) and I am running my stock down now I am working for the enemy...............namely one of those mega warehouses that has umpteen ebay and Amazon usernames to make out they are working from a garage...................and fighting to keep worker's rights. lol. This is not the shiny amazon warehouse you see on the TV. It is a health and safety nightmare, sweatshop, unpaid breaks etc, etc. But hey it's a job and I do like being busy.

There were instagram and facebook posts all over my son's school. He showed me quite a few. 2400 people in that school. It surprised me seeing as it is pretty much a posh kid's school where everyone tends to have University opinions before they even get to university.

poll - quite a few out of 2400?
 
I'd say, come on son, there were only 20 people there!

Not my thing. He showed me a couple and I changed the subject.

And company man? It's a job. I have never ever got a job up the ladder. Always started at the bottom and progressed up the ladder quickly.
 
Rumours that Theresa May will resign tonight. Lots of ministers have stated they will not support the 4th version of the withdrawal agreement............that she constantly tells (and has told on the 3 previous occasions) the populace has cabinet support!!!
