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

[swaledale]

I'm sure you're right Andy and I have never disputed that the countries and areas of Southern Europe are hugely dependent on tourism.
Not just British tourism though, as seems central to whatever point Tricky is trying to make, but all the sun starved countries of Northern Europe and a fair few Russians too for that matter.
He's also made out that all is well with the post Brexit world because holidaying in Thailand remains affordable, only then...a few posts later... it turns out that his 'mega cheap' holiday is actually, at least partly, a 'business' trip so of course it's bloody cheap!
I'm tired of these half truths from those who seek to justify Brexit. 'Has the pound ever been lower?' he asks in some sort of half arsed justification of the fact that the pound plummeted following Brexit and has struggled ever since. Of course, historically, there have been times when the pound has been lower but that is entirely irrelevant to what has happened since June 2016 which, although it may have benefited some exporters, has directly led to more expensive imports - including crucially food - holidays etc and a generally lower standard of living for the majority.
Face up to it Andy, we're in a mess. Our government hasn't a clue...bitching, completely counterproductive elections and pointless cabinet reshuffles have become the order of the day. Farage, Johnson, Gove and company lied to exploit the nationalistic tendencies of a proportion of the population...they've been rumbled and, just like Tricky...their lies and half truths are, hopefully, about to find them out.

Don't forget that Farage said a 52 - 48 vote in favour of remain would not settle the question!

Dont forget that under 40% of the people voted to leave rA.....

Really? That changes everything.

Not sure how Swale has insulted prison officers TTR...he's just raised the question of your actual role within that service. It's the price you pay for an argument based on falsehoods.

Ramanag Not sure Swale has insulted prison officers TTR Hope your not saying its OK to say Tricky is probably just a menial warder for HMP or an ignorant xenophobic holiday maker or a lying ****** Because its a disgusting thing to say to anybody whoever says it

I'm not mista...I think Swale is doubting Tricky's claim and suggesting that he may well be not as 'far up' his profession as he makes out.
That, imo, is entirely different from insulting the position of prison officer.
Swales' views on Tricky's alleged xenophobia or holiday habits are exactly that...Swales' view. I don't know enough about either to comment, but I do know that yesterday Tricky tried to make a point about the average cost of holidays - in relation to the falling strength of the pound and it's impact on ordinary people - and then promptly gave himself away as being deliberately misleading. He also has an increasingly irritating habit of deliberately misinterpreting the points made by others in order to further his agenda.

Frankly Anag I wouldn't believe a word Tricky says at a guess I'd say he was a menial warder in HM prison service, doubt he has either the wit or the skill t do what he says he is.


Looks like an insult to prison officers to me.
Though I wouldn't expect anything less from a countryside bumpkin like him

Total arsehole.

Is the bet on or not? 20k ?

[Trickytreesreds]

In my reply to the holiday position.
Look at it like this. If a car maker makes it difficult for you to view/test/ own a car, what would you do?
Well in my opinion, I'd bugger off where it is easier.

Again I will say it. Why has a free trade agreement, become a political minefield? If you won't bend the knee and submit, you are up for punishment.

How that escapes folks eludes me.

Have folks always had gimp tendencies?

Why are you asking me about the 'bet'? That's a conversation you've had with Swale not me.
It doesn't look like an insult to prison officers to me but there you go and it certainly did look like you were trying to 'pull the wool' last night.

[mistaram]

RamAnag No I didn't think for one minute you would condone it Swales says a lot of very good things just let's himself down by finding it impossible that anyone should have a differing opinion to his He even called me a xenophobe early in this debate That's somebody who employs eastern Europeans and even has them and their families for dinner and wonderful people they are

[Trickytreesreds]

The whiff of bull**** follows you around everywhere you post! Do you really think the succession of falsehoods you have posted about yourself is believed on here? The trouble is a you weave your bull**** and falsehoods,, you forget what you have posted and trip yourself up.

Then of course you try to assume the air of someone who has some knowledge, which falls apart, when you state rubbish like NATO was formed to keep the peace in europe rather than to counter the soviet threat! (i'm sill pissing myself laughing over that)

Oh dear me and now the typical neanderthal response, a wager, which you know perfectly well will never come to pass. I mean of course I'd enter into a bet with an obvious fraud, I mean why wouldn't I?

Your right you are embarassing, but immensely funny except foe the racism and xenophobia.

Ye ah your right on second thoughts the job of a prison officer would be too much for you, I'm guessing you were the cleaner!

full of **** and a coward

Apologies ramanag, it was aimed at **** for brains. The site cut out part of the quote.
I respect your views, because they are delivered in politeness and objection.
We may not agree, but I listen to you.
As for the coke head, no way
