Too long in the tooth to be infuriated, frustrated sometimes maybe with the obscurification that follows reasonable questions and bored with the lengthy rants Tricky as he works himself up into an indignant rage because us Plebs don't understand the implications of the manipulations of the political elites!

Well I'm just back off holiday, trying to catch up and I got as far as this, noting Swale using his same indictment attitude to anyone having a strong opinion. You need help swale you really do, obviously I get under your skin so that makes me quite joyful.
You accuse me of having an attitude, but your temper strops beggar belief.
No one has ever called you a pleb, but your arrogance of being the intellectual one here, is borderline laughable.
Do yourself a favour, have a stiff one and breathe heavily.
The snot on your nose will go hard someday.

I took a lovely trip to Gibraltar whilst away. The amusement of it all was immeasurable.
The guide was sulking(Belgium), about Britain ruining the glorious harmony. Preaching that the EU should decide what's right for you. (I kid you not).
The Spanish Police being complete ****ers, both going in and then out.
In- Over the top inspections of passports. Queue's amounting to 2 hours. Brit side, 10 mins.
out- Over the top inspections, looking for cigarettes and booze and confiscating as much as they could. Brit side, thanks call again.

Spanish patrol boats playing cat and mouse with Brit patrol boats. Arseholes the lot of them and they are supposed to be our friends. Nope, it made my day and told me loads. The Gibraltans, smashing people didn't want you spending euros, pounds only. Happy to call themselves British and proud of it.

Reminded me of whats being erased in the UK. A little bit of national pride and not giving in to bullying.

Mock me all you want swale, I don't give a ****.

There you have it Tricky...the difference between us...I visit Spain quite a lot, absolutely love it. Couple of times I made the mistake of flying in via Gibralter...never again...worst place I've ever been to in Europe...Little Britain personified.

Interesting the last 2 views of Gibraltar, do you know they voted 96% to 4% percent to remain in the eu?

Big surprise. They were hardly going to do otherwise were they? The idea of using the pound, retaining red post boxes, singing the National Anthem and shopping at M&S while enjoying the Southern European sunshine is exactly what appeals to Gibraltarians. Your point is?

[Trickytreesreds]

I don't think we all doomed and it is possible that the human race may have a great future. This was forecast in Olaf Stapledon's book First and Last Men a book that greatly influenced Arthur C Clarke. Just as other species we share our world with have periodic collapses so eventually will the human race,but each time it will be that little bit wiser. In the book we experience 18 over the course of several million years until the Sun goes nova and a final extinction occurs.

Is that Arthur C Clarke the *****phile?

The point is ramanag, that Gibraltans are Spanish genes, but have lived under British rule for centuries and have embraced British culture.
They don't like the EU nor do they like Spain's bullying. It's their choice, something you do not approve of someone having. However, I don't hold that against you. It's the EU WAY.
You aren't allowed an opinion and say on your destiny. You do them proud. ;-)

And they all lived in happy Union

I don't know, was he? All I know that he invented the zero gravity toilet.

Basil, one of my ex bosses was a Sri Lankan national, who made it well known that ACC had a procession of young boys brought to his place. His father was a prominent lawyer who said all the legal system knew what was going on. But due to the fame of ACC, to prosecute him would bring shame on SL.
Belive what you will, but that pervs sermons mean nothing to me.
