njc110381 Posted June 27, 2010 Report Share Posted June 27, 2010 Dear god... We've just had a nutter out shooting members of the public and there are people in the world starving. Who has the time to come up with this madness? It's a bloody joke, no wonder the world is going to ****! How much does the **** who thought that up get paid? Enough to fund a hospital ward somewhere I bet?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodp Posted June 27, 2010 Report Share Posted June 27, 2010 What's really puzzled me for ages, in this day and age of instant communication, is why isn't there a web site for "the people". A site where this sort of thing is published and we, the people, do something about it collectively. Surely if enough folk withheld their council tax (as an example) this would be sidelined instantly. Am I missing something with this thought?

njc110381 Posted June 27, 2010 Report Share Posted June 27, 2010 The thing you're missing is that nobody wants to put their backside on the line in case nobody else turns up at the fight! If everyone did it then that would be fine but you can always rely on the gobby types that will chat about it all day then not bring up the goods. At the end of the day we'll always get bent over by stupid rules and the stupid rules will get dafter every day until the whole place just breaks down. I just hope I'm dead by then because I don't want to be a part of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tam Posted June 27, 2010 Report Share Posted June 27, 2010 A man walks into a greengrocer's and says, I want five pounds of potatoes please. And the greengrocer says, we only sell kilos ... so the man says, alright then, I'll have five pounds of kilos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pushkin Posted June 27, 2010 Report Share Posted June 27, 2010 I smell Hsite! It isn't that long ago that the market guy won the right for us to sell fruit and veg etc in pounds and ounces again so I can't see them trying to enforce this. I reckon this is just the Mail up to it's normal standard of reporting - what they don't know or have to fill a paper they make up! Liklihood is that some beaurocrat has suggested this way for selling eggs and it has been recorded. Why doesn't the Mail say where it got the info from? I can just see the day when Pineapples, cabbages, cauliflowers, Melons to name only some items - are sold by weight. Pushkin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pushkin Well the Telegraph and the Food Standards Agency seem to know about it, so there goes that theory. Or is it that the only newspaper worth reading is the Oo-Ah Daily Star?

shaun4860 Posted June 28, 2010 Report Share Posted June 28, 2010 Can someone explain this thread to me, I am still none the wiser! I can't open the link on my phone. Its a headline about bloomin europe banning sales of things in quantities...ie eggs, bread rolls etc. If this had been brought in years ago it would have killed the two ronnies fork handles sketch..... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cz2-ukrd2VQ shaun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highlander Posted June 28, 2010 Report Share Posted June 28, 2010 Don’t knock the EU it provides jobs for 1000’s of jobsworths who then have to think up these barmy ideas to justify the money we spend on them and to keep their jobs. It’s also a nice place of ‘retirement’ for all those European political failures like our old friend Neil Kinnock (remember him of the ginger kind) who then go on to find nice cushy jobs in the same environment for all their family. If you take his family alone the money they are copping from the EU it must run into 7 figures! It was bad enough when it was just the main countries of Europe but now we’ve all the lame duck countries on board we’re stuffed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
