  1. Doesn't seem too far away for the truth to me!
  2. Actually... you're wrong! The "Introduce Yourself" forum can't be seen by non-members. You should have logged out to check that!
  3. As the politicos would tell you "it's a dynamic situation", so you always run that risk!
  4. Why not just Sign Out to find out?
  5. Which smile is genuine: Mrs May pictured with our PM.
  6. I heard that they are very close to agreement, and it's all rather painless. It's agreed that Nigel Farage will become chief EU negotiator, and that Downing Street will be relocated brick by brick to Belfast; but the current sticking point is exactly how many Trident missiles are to be re-targeted at The Vatican.
  7. Which party will that be? You can't have the Living in a Big Way (on credit) Party - that one belongs to (the other) McDon.
  8. There's nothing wrong with Gove; he should have been in the original cabinet instead of the incompetent Hammond. In Remonian terms he's a hard Brexiteer, as indeed your poster boy McDonnell has just come out as!
  9. Wow, I didn't know Philip May was a "trillionaire"! This is too hung up on current events so try a generalisation... Actually they won't get it... because any region with sentient people will also form at least one cross-traditional-party alliance and preferably multiple alliances, and they will offer their votes to form a government on a competitive basis too. Yes, it's horsetrading but that's how things work anyway, just not on such an above board and refined basis. It's pretty much were Labour's devolution is already tugging us, though like much coming out of the left the implications weren't properly considered (Umm... SNP!). It also has parallels in much of Europe. National party orientated FPTP hasn't exactly worked swimmingly for the NE over the last century has it, and there are huge problems with all forms of PR.
  10. Problem noted. Thanks!
  11. It's looking more certain by the hour - the Tories are currently talking themselves into it!
  12. The Ulster DUP I think. They are now in pole position to dictate the handling of the Irish border, and to demand more economic aid. In our FPTP system being a party that has a regional concentration gives you massive leverage. Has the North East the sense to form such a party, and of course the voters in the North East the horse sense to support it? @bluebarby Life provides you with many opportunities to make your own "fair" - if you can be ar**d!
  13. One of the major reasons May is in the mess she is today I think. By not triggering Article 50 (or what Ukip wanted, simply repealing the Parliament Act) within days, or a few weeks at most, she allowed people like Blair and Mandleson to start maneuvering behind the scenes to undermine the vote, and of course the execrable Gina Miller to launch her legal challenge in front of EUrophile judges who are still mainly on the Brussels teat. A whole long list of other mistakes followed, including appointing totally the wrong person as chancellor. It all goes back to Dodgy Dave and his duplicity though, but that's water well under the bridge now!
  14. So... we'll be taking bookings for it on Bedlington.co.uk before too long? It will be interesting to see the rates.
  15. Dolphin has been seriously improved in the last couple of weeks, and I find I've now gravitated to it as the primary browser on my Samsung Galaxy Note 3. It works exceptionally well with the new Bedlington.co.uk as our site is currently "building-out". I will be trying it out on other Android devices quite soon. Dolphin deserves the Google Play Store rating as top browser - recommended! ...and no it doesn't seem to support the Bedlington.co.uk Live! plug-in, but viewing the webcam on a mobile is something I seldom do. I might check which android browsers support Bedlington.co.uk Live! quite soon.
  16. FOR THE MANY KGS - NOT THE FEW ...and Labour is right: we must end food banks!
  17. It hit one of my machines yesterday and so far is painless. It took a long time to install though, so re-time it to install overnight or when you are going out, or you'll be sitting twiddling your thumbs cursing Microsoft. Once it is installed your (Windows 10 Home) machine will be showing as Version 1703. You can find your current version from the Settings --> System --> About (at the very bottom of the left hand menu) screen. Maybe more on this later...

  18. Nice to see you back Tony, and very sorry to hear about your life-changing event. I don't think you can move your contributions to our state pension scheme (only a private one), but of course you can claim it from overseas when eligible. Loads of info on line though: http://www.litrg.org.uk/tax-guides/migrants-and-tax/national-insurance-migrants/national-insurance-and-uk-state-pension#toc-can-i-claim-a-uk-state-pension-if-i-retire-outside-the-uk- Why Hungary and do you trust Mr Orban? It seems many Hungarians don't! I'd email or phone the London embassy with my questions before deciding anything.
  19. I think - technically - I probably did "emigrate" in 2006. But, through the wonders of modern technology I'm still with you in spirit. Mind you there's a chronological limit to even this, even though it does mean I have incredibly easy access to far cheaper and higher quality alcohol now. On the education thing: it's simply that my left wing teachers at Tynemouth were more deluded than yours at Westridge, and thus easier for a very few of us (less intelligent ones) to take the proverbial out of in the classroom. The resulting life-skills have stayed with us; whilst the intelligent ones - who conformed to expectations - went on to uni (one suspects to become teachers). God, if only we'd had material of the likes of Jeremy to work on, instead of the miserable brother of the Labour candidate for Tynemouth! Isn't life unfair?!
  20. My cage encompasses the entire history of our islands, and so is a far larger cage than those of the compulsive virtue signalers and miscellaneous accompanying freeloaders. So...feel free to try! Jeremy has his heart in the right place, but his head deeply buried in the sand. Fortunately MOST Brits can see this, and intuitively KNOW that a clever and manipulative female is far less dangerous than a terminally deluded male saint who won't be able to control the darker forces he fronts for. If I'm wrong about this, and you are right, then God help US ALL!
  21. But... there wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago!
  22. He's already done a complete 'U'' turn on shoot to kill! What you're actually voting for with Jeremy is: a catastrophic coalition of Trotskyites, Scottish Nationalists and EU fanatics! (Yes, I copy/pasted that one from today's email from leave.eu, but that doesn't make it any less true!)
  23. Well... he's an intellectual match for Boris, isn't he? Or... is it that he just has a far louder voice?
  24. He's already high on religion; this spills over into the EU religion. Tim Farron interview: ‘Maybe God’s plan is for me to lose a bunch of elections and be humbled’ Yes, that's about it Tim - and the only insightful thing you've said for years.
  25. Isn't it obvious: anchor chain is strong and the large ball bearing stable. You should be reflecting on the length of her trousers though; I'm reliably advised by nearby females that these are far too short. This could be read as an omen for coming austerity, but I think it's far more likely that she's keeping her stilettos free to give head champagne socialist Emily I'll-do-ANYTHING-for-a-cabinet-post Thornberry a good kicking.
