Marian over the years when people had real freedom of speech, the jews were quite often referred to in a derogatory manner as the wandering jew with no homeland. Nowadays the roles are reversed and we get the wandering arab, the jews on the other hand now have a homeland and intend to hold on to it. The arabs also have a homeland but want others apparently without having to do the hard chores for it. How easy life was when the basics were adhered to without all these pc people with their fancy and unworkable ideas. As to temporary protection visas which the labour government dismantled to appease these do-gooders are now back in force thank goodness. The next thing is to stipulate who would make worthwhile citizens and who wouldn't. This is already there for bona fide immigrants, lets see it adhered to for the undesirable ones also. Lay down a few laws and abide by them. Take Japan as an example if necessary. What we want is strong leaders and not ones who are watching the possible loss of votes printed by capitalistic newspapers wanting also the power of being able to make or break governments. The media at the best of times is an ass, and most papers are politically motivated depending on ownership. The days of un-educated people is over in the west unless of course you suffer from dyslexia or some other problem. Seamen of my era and many more on this site were more aware of the world than most of your present day politicians. The ignorance of the Foreign offices of both the USA and the UK is bearing testament to this, just pure and utter ignorance in most cases, its well seeing they have ghost writers to make their speeches and pull them out of the crap, they certainly couldn't.

HI All.
Now here is something to think about, I was Welsh, now Australian and proud of it. But yesterday I went to the DR to see what he could do about the little finger on my right hand curling over and losing my grip. He said you will have to have an operation; nothing wrong in that, but then he said you are descended from the Vikings, I said that's the first time iv'e heard that, he said that only descendant's of Vikings get that type of problem!!!!!! it was discovered by a Frenchman, my ancestors must have spent too much time on the oars, Loud and clear I said OARS.
Cheers Des
Attachment 16914
I am quite often surprised when visiting peoples homes, especially those of mid European ancestry. Usually displayed in a prominent place on the wall is their certificate of citizenship and are not backward in promoting the life style they enjoy , probably can still remember some of the repressions they were brought up with. This is the opposite to those who import their religious and other beliefs. If they cant come into a country without bringing some of their vile past and sometimes present history, they should stay away. Until governments take up the challenge and do this there is always going to be trouble. We do not need their oil, the only use of this is to the huge profits some in the west make., and doubt very much without western technology and experience they would be able to drill for in a so efficient a manner. They need us more than we need them don't be deceived by the importance of carbon fuels, they are world wide. It is gains for the over rich companies and people of the world and not for the good of a prosperous country. People were once proud of their flag their country and their way of life, nowadays a few including the PC brigade are trying to turn peoples minds away from as unacceptable. JS
Hi Des
I too am descended from the Vikings, my family name on both mothers and dads side go back over 1500 years and originate in Ormskirk which was a Viking settlement. The word KIRK is a Viking word.
We may be related. I havent got the curly finger yet but the other is a bit curly now,
ODIN!!!
Brian.
I am BRITISH, through and through and very proud of what the brits contributed to this world of ours.
Its when I hear of headlines like this from the Archbishop Justin Welby I ask myself how this can be allowed to be the case in the U.K. In 2014. This isn't just rhetoric from the Sunday Mail this is fact. :mad:
Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby
The Most Rev Justin Welby warns food is being wasted at "astonishing" levels across the UK but hunger "stalks large parts" of the country.
Families are being forced to turn to food banks to make ends meet despite holding down jobs, he told The Mail on Sunday.
The Archbishop's comments come ahead of the publication on Monday of a parliamentary report he has backed that sets out a blueprint to eliminate hunger in Britain by 2020 and urges ministers and the food industry to act.
In the The Mail on Sunday article, he said, although less "serious", the plight of a family who turned to a food bank in Britain had shocked him more than terrible suffering in Africa because it was so unexpected.
"In one corner of a refugee camp in the Democratic Republic of Congo was a large marquee. Inside were children, all ill. They had been separated from family, friends, those who looked after them.
"Perhaps, mostly having disabilities, they had been abandoned in the panic of the militia attack that drove them from their homes. Now they were hungry.
"It was deeply shocking but, tragically, expected. A few weeks later in England, I was talking to some people – a mum, dad and one child – in a food bank.
"They were ashamed to be there. The dad talked miserably. He said they had each been skipping a day's meals once a week in order to have more for the child, but then they needed new tyres for the car so they could get to work at night, and just could not make ends meet.
"So they had to come to a food bank. They were treated with respect, love even, by the volunteers from local churches. But they were hungry, and ashamed to be hungry.
"I found their plight more shocking. It was less serious, but it was here. And they weren't careless with what they had - they were just up against it. It shocked me that being up against it at the wrong time brought them to this stage. There are many like them. But we can do something about it."
The massive increase in the number of food banks across Britain in recent years has proved politically divisive.
Earlier this year, ministers were accused of "taking food from the mouths of children" after blocking millions of pounds of European funding agreed for British food banks.
Cash to help people suffering extreme poverty across the EU was backed in a vote at the European Parliament but the Government said food aid was better decided nationally rather than by Brussels.
Archbishop Welby called for reforms that would allow food companies to pass on goods they could no longer sell.
He added: "The big names in the food business have a moral obligation to communities. We need to make sure that the financial incentives in their industry don't act against their moral instincts."
A Cabinet Office spokesman said: "This report is a serious contribution to an important debate, and recognises that the reasons behind demands for emergency food assistance are complex and frequently overlapping.
"As a country we have enough food to go around, and we agree that it is wrong that anyone should go hungry at the same time as surplus food is going to waste. There is a moral argument as well as a sustainability one to ensure we make the best use of resources."
If we cant feed our children without having to rely on food banks and free handout's something has gone terribly wrong. Anyone who watches these Tv Programs { Life on benefits ETC..} Don't be fooled by the camera, These drunks and down and outs want to live like that it a lot of cases its the only life they no This government thrive on programs like that and believe me they are the minority. Think of the guy going out to work every hour he can with 4 or 5 kids of which there are 1,000s in the U.K. Relying on food handout's to fuel his children's needs. Terry :mad:
I cannot be believe that people have to go hungry in Britain today.
People should learn how to shop at the right places to get the best prices for food, there is a big difference between stores. They should also learn to cook good wholesome meals. It does not cost all that much.
Many depend on takeaways and junk food which is a hell of a lot more expensive than good food prepared at home because they are too idle to shop and prepare a good meal at home.
People with Kids, what do they do with child allowance, £20 a week to feed the first child and £17 a week for all the other kids.
I would also ask the question,, how many ciggies do they smoke and how much ale do they sup as well Do they have a Mobile phone and why?, do their kids have I-pads etc
Food for a family is not that expensive, if shopped right.
A big Ham joint in Sainsburys, big enough to feed a family of six £3.33p I know I do it. a chicken, big enough feed a family of Six, I know I do it, £3.33p . A packet of 72 Weetabix £2.50 in Home Bargains, I know I buy it. equal to 36 days breakfasts for one child. Four Pints of milk in Sainsburys 75p, A pack of Carrots 50p Aldi A pack of any veg 50p in Aldi, Spuds are cheap. A Piza big enough for tha kids £1.50p
All it needs doing is cook it. instead of sending out for a take away.
What the hell are these people doing with their money.
I was brought up in the 1930s . NOT one penny in benefits, Dad out of work due to the slump. Mills closed down. NO Money, The Man from the Parish come in and says , Sell those chairs, just keep two for adults, kids can stand at the table. sell that wireless, the ones with Big glass batteries. When you have sold everything and spent it you may get a couple of shillings.
Today on Benefits they have it made, Rent paid, Council Tax paid, I have to Pay £1,250 a year out of my pension for Council Tax, Kids get FREE School Meals.
I get sick of people whining , When I see people on mobile phones and a ciggie in their hands outside the Food Bank just down the road from me, they all look well fed. The school kids are now suffering from Obesity it is now in epidemic proportions, We are now developing a Nation of Bums and Stiffs.
I expect to get a load of abuse from this BUT I don't care because it is the Truth,
Only last week in Liverpool Crown Court a man was sent to gaol for three years, He has robbed us Tax Payers of £128,000 by false claims on the benefits, while working and saying he was sick. .
I have been there, No wages but also got no benefits, with a Mortgage and two kids. so I know what it is like.
Everyman is in charge of his own destiny, Having kids today is a growth industry, every one creates another benefit.
The list of benefits gets longer, One benefit opens the door to more benefits. and if people cannot survive on all that money then tough , Close the Food Banks,. we do not need them.
I am fed up of supporting them with the taxes on my miserable pension. All my life I have never had one penny in benefits, I have slept in Church door ways in my time, I have stood on the corner with my hand out, "Got a tanner for a cup of tea lah. " `puiss off`. I have been there and have No sympathy, I got myself out of it , no one helped me. I wanted a future and went for it. I didn't sit on my **** begging for help.
Sorry if I upset certain people but that is the way I feel, I see them at my local Food Bank driving up in cars, mobiles and cigs in their hands and a some Arch Bishop wants me to feel sorry for them
Tough.
If you want to know where the benefits get spent here go and sit in A&E at the Queen Alexandra hospital Portsmouth and watch it get puked up .mothers and fathers who buy the cider first , then the cigs , then the bookies , then the loan shark , weed dealer then their take away then the kids . The place is full of them , get a cut knee and you are in a 4 hour line up behind them . Not one or two but dozens of them .
i listened last week to a idiot from ukip who said put up the minimum wages and these leeches will go back to work meaning there will be no jobs for immigrants . i suggest he sits here for a few months in hospital and wakes up
Thanks Des
Now that explains why my Right Index Finger is so curly ! LOL!:)
It is though honestly! Don't know where the Vikings come in ?? LOL
Cheers
Quite right Rob, my lad at the Queen Alexandra tells me of it.
We have bred a nation of drunken bums, Give them Nothing, then they will have to work to survive.
There are jobs out there but they do not want them. they get too much on Benefits and it becomes a way of life,..
A friend has moved from London to Darwen tween Bolton and Blackburn. all moaning around here, cannot get a job, She applied and got a good well paying job strait away. only here for one week to settle in and got a job no problems.
