MB.
Is it only live on U- tube ? I was surprised Bercow moved to labour and not Lib Dem
but under our undemocratic voting system , FPTP, he knows that only labour can
challenge the Tories . He is impressive even if a bit pompous and actually I thought he excelled as an impartial Speaker but Tory MPs hated him because he did not favour them. You know the Tories " born to govern" idea !

Petrol panic is a gift to the woke work from home hardlinersThe danger of flexible working is that it may gradually erode away productivity until the very concept of work itself is under attackBEN MARLOWCHIEF CITY COMMENTATOR27 September 2021 • 6:04pm?Never waste a good crisis, as the old adage goes. So full marks to the ultra-orthodox sect of the working from home movement for leaping on the chaos at Britain's petrol stations as yet further evidence that the nation shouldn't have to return to the office. And what better timing, just as returning commuters put the rush back into rush hour and head back to their desks in meaningful numbers after an 18-month sabbatical at the kitchen table. Little wonder it is the trade unions that are leading the call. Many in the unreconstructed hardliners would happily see us in permanent lockdown or better still, not working at all.Still, they're far from the only ones losing their grip on reality. The corporate world is rife with woke companies in search of the plot, as they bow to pressure to allow working from home to become a human right. ... Daily Telegraph

'I have only ever sought happiness'.
Oh you are a philosopher Scruff.

Management theory considers to basic needs of man.
Quite a subject.

But what makes you happy?

I haven’t lost anything scruff, not here anyway.

The issues and problems Remainers and businesses warned would happen are happening. So in that regard I am on the right side of the argument. When Brexit produces a real benefit I’ll reconsider my stance.

As far as the referendum is concerned I can’t lose what I never had. The referendum was corrupt and built on lies. You can’t lose what you never had which is a fair and democratic referendum.

Here I am, in life, having had repeated successes and find myself well qualified and wealthy. What do you have? It should sound alarm bells that your intellect and wisdom isn’t quite where you believe it is. Sorry to say that, but that is the bleak reality of your own predicament. :)

and Im referring to the Conservative Party - not your pet topic

People who drove lorries were lowly paid and of low status.
Similar with those who worked in care homes or produced food.

Is this about to change?
For decades we have been obsessed with education.
Those who have a degree and are familiar with the poems of Wordsworth or could translate Greek poetry got the highly paid jobs.
There was an inverse correlation between usefulness and earning power.

All of the useful members of society were paid peanuts.
Yet so many youngsters think that obtaining a university degree is still the passport riches.
"If everyone is somebody then no-one is anybody"

When 75% of the population are trying to educate themselves to be in the top 10% something is going to go wrong.

[scruff1] 27/9/2021 22:00

Takes more of a man to admit he lost though.
I wont be holding my breath either. It could very well be that I never again see a conservative party. Its sad that such a mess is at this end of my life. Its not what I had hoped to see

[scruff1] 27/9/2021 21:44

Now that is rich coming from a remainer 'Stop Whinging' FFS.
They made fools of themselves, the law, democracy and the remainer cause in the eyes of any fair minded person which lets out themselves and the latter group

Boris was elected on a mandate to get Brexit done Scruff nothing more, its the events that have conspired against Boris & his enemies have gained much capital. What the transition period should have been about was preparing for Brexit but in reality this time was spent fighting it's objectors in the HOC and Whitehall. There needs to be some accountability Scruff and Boris is not accountable for everything. As with Merv & Arja there are plenty of viament remainers in top civil service positions who will seek to disrupt Brexit still. Getting Brexit done is an achievement which many will not forgive & forget Boris for ever, and like peace in NI its probably a little bit nieve to think that differences will be put to one side in the national interest. I suspect it will take a lot longer for the full benefits of Brexit to be realised & I put this down in no small part to remainer interference.

For goodness sake scruff, stop whinging and drink your own medicine.

You prescribed it! ;)

[scruff1] 27/9/2021 21:34

Not all about being in government MB. Grieve Miller and Heselteine werent in Govt but they attempted to destroy. Oxford University is doing its best to deny free speech. BBC likewise. This could become a long list

[medieval blacksmith] 27/9/2021 21:26

“ the woke/left/labour/remainers - call em what you will but between them theyve all but destroyed our traditional way of life and culture.”

Pretty clever eh seeing as they haven’t been in power for over a decade!

Scruff will never nail his name to a flag. A life ducker and diver this one! ;)
