OT: Carillion

[countygump]

Case proven

Back in the day, they reckon Steak and Kidney's board rubber was as lethal as any hand grenade. 'You boy', 'Who me Sir'?, 'Yes you Sir', whoooshhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

I understand where you're coming from, but I have always tried to avoid that (falling into one of two camps). For example, I put the blame on Blair |(Labour) here every bit as much as the Tories (for their slow and inadequate response). On this occasion, (PFI) I prefer a Corbyn model but I share people's concerns about Corbyn as PM (so does Elite, I think).
You never get a properly considered response from Soccerman because, frankly, I don't think he has the nous - too busy winding up (very unsuccessfully in my case). Serious can post some intelligent ideas when he's not carried away insulting others and telling them they know nothing about deals & business. Tarquin can be funny and thoughtful but also nasty and racist.
If posters keep their views short and sharp, it can be useful and worth reading.
Btw, Prisoner i961 was a reference to the fact that you are known by a number, not a name. Don't take it personal - it's a joke. Make one back would be a good response.
Have a good day.

Wow....your little ploy of lobbing a political grenade onto the forum has not worked this time, so you have a peevish strop and attempt to pigeonhole everyone that has ever disagreed with you....I notice that you did not attempt to do the same with Elite, Chubby, Andy or Driller, MADs answer to the Liebour front benches...chortle, guffaw, attempts to keep from belly~laughing.

As for me being nasty and racist.....I have never ever had a pop at the Chinese, Hindus, Burmese, Japanese, any of the numerous Christian countries or countless other faiths and religions....except one Medieval religion that actively seeks to subjugate women, murder and torture Gays, enslave Christians and in general, cause anarchy in the West...whilst you and your playmates seek to support them.....mmmm, so I guess that makes you, and a few others, misogynistic homophobes masquerading as Socialist advocates attempting to "calm the savage beast", or beastly savage.....how is the Masterplan going for you, sat in your pristine English country garden writing tomes of intellectual bullchit about the blight of inner~city sprawl and squalor, crimewaves and rapes?

See Sidney....we can all play that game....meanwhile, as you sip your babycham and sharpen your proverbial quill whilst worrying about the plight of Harry the Heron, I am working in the Mexican semi~desert with my Mexican labour, paying them 250% the national wage and free cups of coffee....oh yes, and waiting for my Mexican doctor girlfriend to turn up on friday or my one~quarter~blooded Lumbee Indian son, who carries my full name, to drive down to see me.

It is starting to look like it is you that is the racist....not me.

ps I will work on the "nasty" bit once I have calmed down

No problem Sid, quite funny now you have explained it to me, can't think of a response at the moment to busy packing because we are off to NZ for 10 weeks to see our new grandson. Mind you I will be keeping an eye on you from down under. Happy New Year to you.

Talking about numbers. When asked for her thoughts on Carillion, Diane Abbott answered "How many's that?"
