Hilarious cheshire

You are certainly in Cloud Cuckoo Land.

What on Earth makes you think we are going to become an economic powerhouse the rest of the world envy?

We have just exited the world's largest trading block.
We have just excluded an abundance of very liquid labour resource at all levels.
We have introduced tariffs and too much red tape.
We have created barriers with our largest supplier AND customer.
We are making education worse for most of our younger generation and taken away opportunities for them.
We have little/poor supply chains.
We have Victorian infrastructure, roads full of pot holes, limited reliable energy supply, congested airports, congested/failing sea ports.
Little steel industry

Etc.. etc..


You know wishful thinking and pie in the sky views are not going to be enough in order to be competitive and an economic power house that the "world envy".


It is good to be patriotic and have great ambition but you need to address the issues the right way and temper it with realism. I feel sorry for you because your dream isn't going to happen. Not the way you think anyway.

Come on Nadine Dorries, rally the troops and fight off the treacherous remainer Tories wanting to knife Boris. Don't succumb to trial by media and hysteria.

No-one apart from Boris could stave off a lib / lab cobbled coalition. This is as important for the nation as the Battle of Britain.

Two more election victories yet to come for Boris Aceuk...at least.

Recall Sir Alex Ferguson being under the cosh early on at Man Utd and then look what followed.

[aceuk] 06/7/2022 14:36

And another and Gove's been handed back the knife!

[aceuk] 06/7/2022 14:34

Is The Clown going to make it to The Liaison Committee?

[aceuk] 06/7/2022 14:33

And another - this is beyond hilarious now

[aceuk] 06/7/2022 14:32

Gove on his way to finish the job he started 3 years ago

[smurfy2001] 06/7/2022 14:29

5 more resignations. Gulp.

Set Dylan and Carrie on the men in grey suits if they come knocking on the door Boris.

You've mostly sorted brexit, on top of COVID. Make this country the economic powerhouse the rest of world envy while EU land goes down the pan. Tough it out Boris, the nation needs you.

[diku] 06/7/2022 14:26

I don't think Bojo will wait for the party vote if he thinks it will go against him...

What do you think.. covid-19 money making machine. I do believe him!.US should pay compensation if Covid-19 claim confirmed.Damage caused by Covid-19 to countries globally should be covered by Washington if the US bioresearch origin claim is confirmed, the Duma speaker saysThe US may owe the world huge compensation for the damage caused by the Covid-19 pandemic..The remarks made by the chair of The Lancet commission on the disease, who suggested the SARS-CoV-2 virus may have originated from an American research program..Speaking in Madrid last month, economist Jeffrey Sachs called the current situation "a mess" and blamed diminishing American leadership for it, identifying the pandemic as one of the US failures. .He said he was convinced that the virus "came out of US lab biotechnology" as opposed to evolving naturally, citing his experience with the authoritative British medical magazine..The US government would not comment on Sachs' remarks because President Joe Biden is "afraid that the world will know the truth about the true culprit of the pandemic.".He added that the suffering of millions of people who contracted the virus, including the many who passed away, and the economic crisis caused by the pandemic were the US' responsibility. ."The US must compensate the damage to all nations affected," he demanded..The Russian official , Vyacheslav Volodin, the speaker of the Russian State Duma, added that the US should "stop and declassify" its "military bioweapons research," referring to the chain of biolabs scattered across the world that receive funding from the Pentagon's Defense Threat Reduction Agency. .The US says they are used to detect emerging pathogens, but some countries, including Russia and China, believe they may be used for clandestine military research..Sachs himself called his remark "provocative" and lamented that the theory "is not being investigated, not in the United States, not anywhere," despite evidence that warrants such a probe. ."They don't want to look underneath the rug too much," he said..The theory that Covid-19 started as a leak from a Chinese lab in Wuhan was popularized by the US government under President Donald Trump, who stated that Beijing should pay compensation for its supposed guilt.. The Chinese government and Trump's political opponents at home angrily rejected the idea. Major US tech companies even suppressed the lab leak theory as "disinformation" on their online platforms..The censorship was reversed under President Joe Biden's administration, which accused Beijing of failing to subject its microbiology research to international scrutiny. .The outbreak was first detected in the Chinese city of Wuhan, which hosts a top biosecurity lab that has extensive records of doing research funded by American grants..The World Health Organization conducted a probe into the origins of Covid-19 and concluded last February that the virus most likely came from an animal host.

Canada under Trudeau is a weird place - joining the US and the UK. The Chinese must be rocking. Pincher must love it too. Easier getting your hand up a blokes skirt than down his trousers - no objections either. He already sees the army as his next career move I believe.

I am sure over time you will be able to hold hands arja...lol.In the new version of the Dress Instructions, one paragraph, which prohibited chewing gum, slouching, and walking hand in hand, was removed.

I bet arja will apply to be a soldier in Canada. He already has the X passport from U.S..Canadian military to allow skirts and hair coloring for soldiersPublished: 6 Jul 2022 | 11:46 GMT.Changes to the dress code were long overdue, the authorities say.Canada has introduced changes in the nation's military dress code, allowing servicemembers to have long nails, face tattoos, and to dye their hair. .The new rules also permit men to wear skirts. .According to an FAQ released by the Canadian military on Tuesday, the dress code revision was long overdue, but the changes were not made lightly. ."The appearance of the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) has not kept pace with the Canadian society which it serves," the document reads..The CAF says the purpose of the reform, which will come into effect in September 2022, is to make the rules more inclusive and gender-neutral. .One of the major changes is that uniforms will be no longer divided into the categories 'male' and 'female'. .This means that servicemembers who identify as men will be able to wear skirts, given that all references to gender have been removed in respect to items such as skirts, nylons, and purses. ."Both catalogues are open to all members and they may be intermixed. .CAF members may choose whichever design best fits, as long as it is worn as per the Dress Instructions," the military said, with exceptions for specials occasions such as parades. .In addition, recruits will no longer have to shave their heads in basic training, and there will be no restrictions on hair length unless it impedes performance.. Servicemembers will also be allowed to dye their hair and have long fingernails and ear piercings, if it doesn't interfere with their duties..Face tattoos are also acceptable, unless they are associated with criminal gangs or indicate discrimination against others. .In the new version of the Dress Instructions, one paragraph, which prohibited chewing gum, slouching, and walking hand in hand, was removed. .The FAQ, however, says that all servicemembers, while in uniform, should "project a positive military appearance.".While praising the push to honor diversity in the military, General Wayne Eyre, Canada's chief of the defense staff, admitted the move could spark debate. ."Some will consider this progress, while others may see this as unwarranted," Eyre said. "We must be wary of the false dichotomy that we must choose between changing our dress and appearance, or be strong."
