I am seriously getting worried, that that joke Corbyn might end up running he country, which will within months, put a new social policy in place to be paid for by the ones that work, and on their knees knees already, borrowing money, left right and centre, so that llike every labour government in history leave us in massive debts that will increase until, once again the country votes conservative to sort it all out. I probably won't be here it see that happen. I notuce the frugal life style Blair had, an example to all labour voters. He and his very rich family did very well out of it, pity the country didn't, particularly those youngsters sent to Iraq.

I want our boarders shut now! I want to be out of the european court now! I want to trade freely now. I want to get out this awful dictat- club now.

Yes I am working class Rigby, unfortunately i don't have a party that I can truly vote for so I want what will do one that will get me a hard brexit, so its the torys.

After than I may see.

Although your posts are often rude/angry/ strange Rigby it wasn't actually you that I have reported.

stillaliveandkicking Wed 31-May-17 23:06:52

I sort of don't get why anyone needs to report anyway to be honest. It's nothing I have ever done nor ever will. If things get heated or pretty personal, I don't really care. Let's face it, no one really knows anyone online.

well good for you stillaliveand kicking unfortunately the people of Scotland disagree with you ,So much nonsense has been written about the EU for decades that most folk think its full of wicked witches doing awful spells to keep the poor British down.....NOT TRUE as you will see when we come out.God help us all.Only idiots would walk away from 500 000 000 thats FIVE HUNDRED MILLION potential customers .The EU hasn't caused the problems in the UK its Westminster thats done that ..and without the EU we wont have a cats chance in hell of keeping WM in check

I gathered you were reporting dd but I felt my comments were of the same ilk as hers so rather hoped you'd report me as well. As for your description of my posts - you forget to add 'extremely well informed, articulate, knowledgable'. And there is much to be angry and rude about on GN amongst so much ill informed dross.

rosesarered Wed 31-May-17 23:11:27

True saak but if it were to go on all the time, with posters saying truly awful things to each other just because they disagree with their viewpoints, then pretty soon only the gobby posters would be left on here, hurling abuse at each other, which is why we have moderators.

rosesarered Wed 31-May-17 23:12:18

....and I also forgot to say 'modest' about you as well Rigby.

stillaliveandkicking Wed 31-May-17 23:13:03

And you speak for the people of scotland then paddy? We all have our views and I want out. Not sure about wicked witches though, that's a bit weird. So is the god stuff.

It is however your opinion grin

Welshwife Wed 31-May-17 23:13:57

SAAK I appreciate you have very strong views about the EU and wish us to leave but wherever I look to see likely facts of how Britain will fare once out of the EU it does not look anything like as good and healthy as now.
Immigration is a two way thing and people need to WANT to come and live in Britain as well as be allowed to. The numbers of people wishing to become UK immigrants has dropped enormously - so Britain may not be able to fill the jobs it wishes to from immigration.

stillaliveandkicking Wed 31-May-17 23:16:10

I still don't agree with reporting though rose, yeah if it gets ridiculously radical then maybe, but Im good with what I say and if people are angry then thats their problem I don't find it particularly personal other than anger.

Rigby46 Wed 31-May-17 23:16:50

Good heavens roses the last word ever to use about me is modest. Modesty is very over rated and I can't bear people who dissemble.

stillaliveandkicking Wed 31-May-17 23:18:53

With respect Welsh, it hasn't happened so its all hearsay. I also agree with immigration but i don't agree with the levels nor what has been happening over the last decade. Immigration was not to fill what we didn't have, it has taken from what we did have.

rosesarered Wed 31-May-17 23:19:13

Yes Rigby I rather thought that may be the case with you.

stillaliveandkicking Wed 31-May-17 23:20:09

Are you and rose flirting rigby grin

paddyann Wed 31-May-17 23:20:29

where will the NHS be without the immigrants who work in it SAAK ? or are you happy to see that go to privateers too.....just out of curiosity what AGE are some of the posters on here ,are you all really OLD people ? You have some very strange opinions if your not,do you think the generations after you will thank you for taking them out of europe ..then think again.All they'll see is a load of old folk who're stuck in the past messing up THEIR future.There'll be no thanks for it ,believe me.and you know what they'll be right

stillaliveandkicking Wed 31-May-17 23:24:10

Well it may be better, have you thought of that? I personally don't get the influx when we have perfectly good nurses here. Friend is a nurse and she gets very frustrated due to not being able to get over the language barrier let alone the patients. Putting resources into our own people is more of an answer than recruiting abroad don;t you think? We have more than enough people in the country to do that.

rosesarered Wed 31-May-17 23:25:39

grin saak ....in a word, NO.

stillaliveandkicking Wed 31-May-17 23:28:36

Lets actually look at the costs of recruiting abroad when we NOW have enough people to fill these voids. Funny enough, grants have been stopped for British people to train. Why is that, It's "easier" to recruit abroad. Well that is no longer the answer. This practice needs to stop and I dearly hope it does.

stillaliveandkicking Wed 31-May-17 23:29:42

It will end, so I say YES!

stillaliveandkicking Wed 31-May-17 23:31:17

Id actually love to see the compensation figures that are paid due to labour brought from abroad.

rosesarered Wed 31-May-17 23:34:44

Haha, saak I was talking about the flirting when I said NO.

rosesarered Wed 31-May-17 23:35:06

It's getting late....moon

stillaliveandkicking Wed 31-May-17 23:37:28

I won't deal with any company where I cannot understand what the person on the other end is saying. I also will not put any money into a bank etc. that has their services abroad.

This all needs to be over.

stillaliveandkicking Wed 31-May-17 23:38:21

You little minx rose grin sleep well

paddyann Wed 31-May-17 23:39:02
