  1. So glad I was not born in the US, what a mental place.
  2. Maybe the EU is actually a migrating economic zone that gradually rolls eastwards around the globe? In another 50 years perhaps it will be an east Asia trading bloc and Australia can join the fun?
  3. He responds well to a vocal crowd.
  4. Boro offered nothing, we shut them down over two legs. Can we deploy a plan to nullify Fulham as well?
  5. An arm wrestle of a half with neither team creating anything. Going to be a nervous second half.
  6. Besides the religious difference ISIS are predominately Arabs and Iran is Persian so there is a cultural clash as well. Iran and ISIS hate each other.
  7. Could Iran turn to China for backing in place of the US? China seem to be supporting every developing country these days.
  8. Well this seems interesting:
  9. The family who raves together stays together.
  10. Gordon Brown triped up by calling her bigoted behind her back but was caught on an open mic. If he had had the courage to say it to her face he would have been fine.
  11. Is Rupert Murdoch getting a sniff of which way the wind is blowing?
  12. Happy Star Wars Day!
  13. I see, so Trump’s corruption is fine but the government agency uncovering it is not healthy for the country? That kind of logic could only come from a full blown ideologue.
  14. Is he actually unhinged? It is difficult to work out what is going on with him.
  15. You can taste a dry carbon dioxide flavour in sparkling water. Different brands have slightly different tastes as well.
  16. It’s an acquired taste but I’ve been converted now and quite like it.
  17. Lets face it, we are going to have 'Manager out!' threads for as long as we are out of the Premier League. Aston Villa fans have a certain level of expectation.
  18. Yeah, I only went there for a day but my brother got bad food poisoning from the place we had lunch.
  19. My understanding of the lords vote is that it is pretty meaningless. It asks the government to explain what steps they have taken to remain in the customs union. Not that they must remain in the customs union. The government response may well be ‘we haven’t taken any steps because we are leaving the customs union’. I think the only point of it was to give some encouragement to Tory remainers.
  20. There is a twitter feed called something like Trump vs Trump where it pits his many many contradictory posts against each other. In politics at the moment logic and facts are not important, emotion is all that matters. It is no different to the willful blindness of football fans who will hate, with all their being, a player like John Terry and then completely flip and cheer for him when he is on our side.
  21. The thing is cinema is a dying medium. Good movies (and TV) is still being made but it is not what is being shown at the cinema mega screens.

    Drugs

    I don’t think anyone is offering a magic bullet, just suggesting possible ways to improve the current arrangement.

    Drugs

    I think it should be sold at pharmacy type outlets and you would probably need a licence to buy. There would still be a black market of course but predominantly with a genuine regulated product being sold 'aftermarket'. I'm sure there would also be backyard counterfeit operations as well but they would be reduced to a much smaller percentage of the market share compared with 100% now. I also think it would change attitudes towards a lot of drugs.
