  1. Why would we want to join an EU that is sinking so fast, it is likely to fall apart as Germany, France etc no longer have the funds to pump into the other countries. If we were still part of the EU we would also be on the hook for bailing nearly everyone else out. Whilst Brexit is not yet complete, 2029 wil change that. In the meantime if Stammer & Co try to take us back in, they had better watch out, the British public, the majority of whom are fed up already with Labour, will revolt.
  2. I think there is a lot of soap boxing here..... There are native species which were wiped out locally and nationally and are being reintroduced, a lot of which is over due.... Such as beaver, otters, lynx, wolves, bears, pine martins, red kites, red squirrels, etc etc and in many cases being hamstrung by over regulation. And then there is releasing non-natives, such as Coypu, mutjac, grey squirrels, mink, Zander, etc which could never get here naturally. On a side note it is indeed easier for Pine Martins to catch grey squirrels due to their heavier weight, they can't get out in the foliage as far and feed on the ground more often.
  3. Steel proofed is a Fleur De Lys symbol. Do not use steel bigger than uk no7 in a 410. Due to 410 choke constrictions being so variable. Measure your chokes. Anything tighter than 0.400 will not be suitable for steel. Most USA YouTube videos shooting steel in 410 are using Cylinder choke and shot sizes 7, 8 and 9 Above all, pattern your gun at 25 yards before going into the field!
  4. Get a Franchi Affinity 3inch .. Made by Beretta but at a more affordable price.
  5. Surely you should follow the "wax on, wax off" process.....
  6. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Trump is going to disembowel the Ukrainians. RFK is going to disembowel both big pharma and big Agricultural (Inc food processors and manufacturers) Eon and Vivek are going to attempt to destroy the Military industrial complex. Hegseth us going to gut the neocons out of the military command Tulsi is going to do similar for Intelligence agencies If the CIA etc can be stopped from funding revolutions, we won't get another Ukraine!
  7. Classic strawman argument, ignore everything else as irrelevant but the facts that suit your point of view War will end when Ukraine negotiates a surrender or is beaten completely.
  8. Complete pipe dreams, virtually the whole of the Russian people support Putin, in fact a majority of them would support Putin going much further than he has. The MSM treat Putin as if he is the worst person in the world, in truth he is a moderate, a check against those who would have gone full war and he represents the Duma and he needs it's approval to do what he is doing, just like Stammer needs consent of parliament. It is the West who are overextended and will back down or take us to WWIII and then lose. West is out of money, out of equipment and out of personnel. I.e. UK has 1 active battalion of tanks (circa 44) which sit on training ground and 3 battalions of mechanised troops rotate through the training ground using the same tanks. The others (another approximately 44) are mothballed and canabalised for parts, what are we going to fight with? We gave away all our self propelled artillery, we gave away our stormshadows, we gave away our ammo stockpiles, armoured vehicle stock piles, thankfully we have only given them 2 of our 4 mine sweepers, etc etc Russia alone produces as many weapons per annum as NATO combined. Add in Chinese, North Koreans and Iranians and NATO is out numbered in production and man power. Exocets are fire and forget, much like a bullet... The issue is all these long range missiles require supplying third parties to programme and control them to target, so Ukrainians can't just be given them and left to it.
  9. You can repeat propaganda all you want. In this case, the Political class in Ukraine in power you are supporting are actual NAZI's and clearly projecting what they are doing and MSM and those following it are lapping it up. Ukraine is conscripting civilians and killing them on purpose, Ukraine is disappearing people, Ukraine is treating POW's badly, Ukraine is attacking civilian targets (cause their weapons are not accurate), Ukraine are trying to escalate from a local war to WWIII. Russia made it clear to British, German, French and American ambassadors earlier this year.. if you strike us in Russia, we will strike back, no matter what territory the missle is launched from. At that point the foreign departments of each respective country all had a collective heart attack and every sane politician backed away from the idea. Biden is clearly trying to poison USA\Russia relations before Trump pulls the plug on Ukraine. If the illegitimate Ukrainian government steps down and the even more illegitimate Ukrainian President steps down and elections declared, the war would stop tomorrow.
  10. It is fact that for stormshadow(UK)\scalp (France), Taurus (Germany) and Atacams\tomahawk (USA) all require programming by relevant countries military personnel and use real time USA satallite for guidance. Only currently serving military personnel have the clearance and ability to do so! Russia has made it clear that any use of USA satallite data to guide missles over Russia or if those missiles are programmed by Western military personnel to fly at targets in Russia, makes those satallite and associated personnel legitimate targets and also a declaration of general war (which it is). Russia to date has objected to Western missles being used in Ukraine (as it has all Western weapons and personnel) but has stated as long as this is confined to Ukraine a general war will not exist. Stamer and Biden are about to try to start WWIII to stop Trump from bringing about a peaceful settlement!
  11. The compound interest is calculated monthly, based on the annual equivalent rate of 8%. £16 per month per £200 is the simple interest rate.
  12. They are paying interest at end of month, taking into account when your input funds clear at start of the month. If you opened with £200 on 1st of month and made 11 further payments on 1st of month, you would have paid in £2400 and be expecting £102.67 interest.
  13. Europe is dead to car makers. You cannot compete with the Chinese when your energy costs are 5x theirs due to government policy and incompetence. The reason. Byd Song is 'cheap' is the combined low cost of energy and labour (though labours costshave risen in China). The trouble is our and European governments don't want you to import affordable EV's that can replace most town cars (i.e. do 50miles to 100 miles a day, needing charged 1x a week and only very occasionally longer journeys requiring a mid travel charge but instead try to support our own makers who are making cars at horrendous costings
  14. Gun fit is always more important than barrel number or orientation.
