OT. The futures Bright, the Futures Brexit!!!

I intend to use that extensively tomorrow. But what does it mean?

An old saying believed to have originated in the English west country. Meaning that the person being referred to is as incapable of understanding your point as is a piece of meat.

As you regularly prove...and while you’re thinking about that, just ask yourself which one of the two of us resorts to name calling and abuse?

Does it perhaps relate to Swale's gammon?

As do you sunshine. You're very clever and subtle with it. Yet get a bit braver when Fail has had a go.
You would never agree with me on anything, even with a cast iron alibi. But you do it to GP and Andy as well. So I'm confident in the fact my own bias, isn't a one sided event. No matter how you view it.

Braver? What are you on? How can you be brave on an anonymous forum?
You’re right...I can’t imagine agreeing with you about anything remotely political and that is something I am enormously comfortable about.
No idea what Swale has to do with it...I don’t need him and he doesn’t need me. We agree on many aspects of politics and sometimes disagree about other things. Likewise I sometimes agree and sometimes disagree with GP and Andy. So what?

[Andy_Faber]

I'll be a bit more concilatory and suggest that if Remainers were given the opportunity of attempting to reverse the Brexit decision in arbitration, CAP wouldn't be exhibit A - regardless of the France issue, its a monolithic failure in many ways, as the few farmers I still know would confirm (as they leaned out of the drivers side window of their Bentley SUVs I must add)

Edit I was too much of a doer to ever see the dumping of CAP generated surpluses on the third world but I suffered the frustration, after busting a ******* to get the barley harvest in (double frustrated as I was allergic/hypersensitive to the bloody stuff), of watching it fester in a silo for 11 months due to CAP-driven overproduction and then burying it

Brave in the way, whenever proven wrong you go quiet. You have on many occasions disagreed on one of my quotes, only to have one or two others on here, confirm the authenticity of it.
ZIP/ZILCH/NADA. Then Swale opens his insulting mouth with full blown insults, and you back him up like an annoying little brother, who doesn't quite know how to swear yet. It's actually quite funny.

As proven over the last few posts, you've had a perfectly good response to a puzzlement from yourself. Only to continue in denial.
So no, you will never agree with me, i don't think you're capable. I hope you never get jury duty.

Sorry Tricky...you’ve just reminded me of Mark Twain’s advice about arguing with an idiot. Life’s too short and your responses have become so nonsensical and unfounded that there’s no point in continuing so I’ll just withdraw and ‘go quiet’.

Blimey that farmer must have been very rich to bury some barley! Funny when I was involved we'd store barley for 10 months or so then sell it when it was in short supply, but then I probably lived in the real world rather than one based on anecdotes from acquaintances!

Best way really rA, one can't argue with an idiot and Thicky is clearly a died in the wool one, and desperate if he relies on AF or GP to back up his "facts"!

[swaledale]

Nor will we, told you that you wouldn't believe me in the first post. You didn't. Predictible.

Because its complete and utter *******s, and being in possession of a brain rA realises this, still if you insist its true, fair play, Brexiteers still believe the lies told to them when they voted make of that what you will.

You're a bit late on this spat Swale, We've moved on

You miss the point, he was paid to destroy it by CAP

Didn't realise you or your family were farmers too Swale. My Dad used to adopt that philosophy of selling the harvest 8 to 10 months later back in the 70's too. Then he discovered the joys of futures trading an hedging. Problem was if, as often happened, global harvests were too good and the prices remained lwo and you were left with basically having to sell it into intervention - in theory a good way to stabilise prices, but often resulted in destruction of grain to avoid the longer term cost of storage. Just messy
