Never mind, that awfully nice Mr Corbyn's going to give us all free ultra fast fibre broadband, while fixing the NHS and to top it all, we'll all be on a 4 day week.

He's basing his 4 day week (i believe) on a microsoft trial where they got a weeks work done in 4 days by working "that bit harder".
Not sure how a bus driver can do this or a fireman though etc etc etc...

Oh and as for free broadband...good way for the establishment to spy on everyone cus before some people couldn't afford it. No excuse and no hiding now....

And i see that the Cons are openly attacking his NHS plans by saying his unlimited immigration policy will kill the NHS.
BUT their points based system will be the answer...
They didn't mention the organised people trafficking straight through ports or the channel boat collection service we're running though...no points needed...

But that nice Mt Corbyn said so, so it must be true.

Wifey wants a puppy dog, we had a rainbow a couple of days ago and I still like a lolly pop...

I must look online about the voting to see if i can vote for none of the above.
I've had a word with myself and decided i can't face the idea of not voting because i then loose my right to moan at the useless wankers!

Anything published in the " Daily Express " lacks credibility in my opinion. I'd even have to go and check the date at the top of the page.

Some newspapers and media are much more reliable than others. The problems start when you claim "fake news" just because you disagree with what they write or say.

I regard my daily national newspaper as reliable but I still don't blindly believe everything I read in it. Our two major TV news channels often report the same event differently.

No newspaper sells to all so each select and target those that give the steadiest income. What I detest most is a headline that has as good as nothing to do with the story behind it. Same as seeing something that costs 299 and expecting me to think that it's much less than 300. Many prices here end in .99 but the smallest denomination coin is .50

The media is like houses. Some are built to be sold and others built to live in.

Who was it that said " Freedom of the press is guaranteed only to those who own one " ?

I must admit the British " popular " press has been unashamedly partisan over the last few decades. Recently however they've sunk to a new low.

Regards Tyrone.

That's the first i heard about Farage and others being offered a negotiating job but i have tried to step back from the bullshit and haven't read so much lately.
As you said, there's sweet Fanny Adams we can do about it...

Why would one offer a negotiating job to a person that had not attended the majority of sessions in the parliament to which he was elected?

Politics I guess Mark?
Love him or loath him, he's been the most politically influential person in the UK for the last 10+ years, without any seat in Parliament or a say in how the country runs.
It's a strange situation

Just getting off the topic. What's the internet access like in your bit of Spain. I know our place is out in the sticks but the internet is pretty poor. After about 9.00pm it drops off quite a lot for an hour or two. Why I'm asking is I keep reading how good the internet is out in Spain. Ours isn't a patch on what we get here at home.

Regards Tyrone.

Ours is spoton Tyrone but we have Wimax line of site across the valley to the mast.
They have been digging up the town to put cable in which id prefer. Not a lover of wifi and especially the incoming 5g...
