Don't forget the same Ding Dong Thatcher government cut pension rates for WWII veterans....

I'm not too sure WW2 veterans should get any more than others for the Retirement Pension.

It's a controversial point I know, but an awful lot of civilians have spent a lifetime in the worst sort of occupations.

Down in the mines; factory work; shift work; dangerous occupations such as firemen, Rescue Service people, the riot police, school teachers Cool

, electricians, roofers, pink batts installers, bridge painters, stand up comedians Cool

, war correspondents, scaffolders, tall building constructors, prostitutes ... etc etc.

It's when it becomes an infestation that the locals become a little antsy about it.

It's now official that London has more Darkies in it than white Brits or white immigrants.

Gone to hell in a basket. Destroyed forever.

And still, incredibly, there is not one English underground cell that's been formed to bring to summary justice the politicians who brought about this situation.

The UK had idiots in power who sent soldiers to die across the world in the Falklands to 'save it for Britain', with meanwhile the capital city was in the process of being flooded by blacks and Muslims.

but when anyone did speak up they are called racist...so they shut up..funny how Gandhi was never accuse of being racist...and when he won they all ended up in Britain..more Sari's walking around there than in Bombay I would suss...

I dont mind really anybody moving anywhere.. but if you are going to start a new life in a new country at least live like the locals do...we probably have a few here that get their welfare cheque and send half of it back to the old country...I dont agree with that at all..

It's a no-brainer.

Angela Merkel became annoyed that so many of the 'German'-Turks were sending half their wages 'home' ~ for decades.

I saw a Canadian version of 'Undercover Boss' on TV the other day, and when the boss fronted up to one of his huge Holiday Resorts to join the cleaning crew ~ every last one of these women was from India ... still with their heavy accents.

I was desperately looking for at least the one token Canadian, but not a single one did I espy.

And I immediately thought ~ why are these recent Indian migrants taking all of these menial jobs, instead of at least some of the positions being given to the local indigenous people ~ or white or black Canadians?

I'll guarantee millions in Canada watching that show thought exactly what I had thought.

It's that sort of discrimination against the locals that gets 'rightwing fascist bigots' like me a tad upset.

And I've noticed we have the same phenomenon here in the railways cleaning services, and the hotels cleaning services, and airport cleaning services, etc ... ALL Filipino women, Greeks, Pacific Islanders ...

Whatever happened to racial discrimination in the workplace?

Harris known as "The Octopus"

http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/rolf-harris-trial-recap-updates-3639262

..and also, if you noticed..
Quote:

The dates on the charge regarding the teen groped at a celebrity game event in Cambridge have been amended to cover 1975-1979, instead of just 1975/76.

..would that change the age of the alleged victim?

Did Rolf lie about remembering that he was at Cambridge university campus, which is akin to a small city, or did the alleged victim lie about her age when she knew Rolf was in attendance?

..and also
Quote:

The witness says Harris would burst into song at random and make funny noises.

Would that disagree with Rolf trying to "sing his way out of trouble if that's just what he does randomly"?

I ask you witch hunters, is there any reasonable doubt present here? Cheesy

Quote:

Cross examining Ms Charles, the prosecution asks for her reaction to learning Harris had a fling with his daughter's childhood friend.

She says it was sad.

Ms Wass QC suggests the witness never saw Harris' sexual side, and says there's another side to this lovely cuddly man.

A fling! Really? 16 yrs. is called a fling?
I thought it was a domineering sexual grooming for gynecological sex from the age of 13 Grin

"Rolf becomes totally un-newsworthy" ~ my ASS!

The ISIS insurgent militias have been spreading themselves across Syria and Iraq like an octopus on the move ... probing soft spots ... groping their way into new territory ... exploring forbidden places ... daring to feel their way around the next corner ...

Rolfy-baby is there in spirit if not in body.

"Totally un-newsworthy" ~ my ISIS!

Yeah - but this guy had been a tankie and had lost both legs - the guy they interviewed over it - a Cockney or similar - sort of shrugged and said 'Yer just go'a assept it.' Maybe it was because he's a Londerner...
