Re: [LU] : Manchester

2017-05-24 Thread Richard Naef
2015 66% turnout, Tories got 36.9% of votes 51% of seats. 100% of Government.  
Apart from the 2010 coalition I don’t think there has been a govt with the 
majority of votes for a couple of generations.

Local and European elections often less than 30%

We do not want to be lectured about "terrorism" and "security" from an Israeli, 
thank you very much.

It is so easy to light some candles, give some blood and mutter about evil 
deranged muslims.doesn't anybody ever ask themselves what islamic 
terrorism is REALLY about?

It all stems from something that was written in a letter on 2 November 1917 
(no, I'm not that fanaticalI just looked it up!) The Balfour 
Declarationthat, compounded by the unspeakable evil of the 
nazis, has led us to where we are today.

And btw..what an outrageous piece of cynicism for May to now 
declare a nationwide state of emergency. Blatantly using those dead kids to 
further her message about the need for "Strong & Stable" leadership.

How does it stop? By having guards who intercept the terrorist. A lot die for

Civil liberties are curtailed. You have no alternative. Profiling is unpleasant.
Right now the UK is in a worse position than we were.  We can identify the

Sorry, it is not business as usual. If it is, expect a lot more deaths.

Ridiculous---You can never appreciate ridiculous till you live under 
proportional representation. It promotes militants loons. In Israel the 10-15% 
penguins are 'driven by' a third motivated ones. They then hold the balance of 
power. You do not get diversity you get lunacy. No one looks to represent the 
middle of the road majority. It is too complex; so you get uni-issue agitators 
to their own minority and don't give a toss about anyone else. In a two tier 
system [like Commons and Lords] pay lip service to some proportionality.
In first past the post you have one man answering his constituency. With PP you 
have lists who are responsible to a diffuse electorate.

We do not want to be lectured about "terrorism" and "security" from an Israeli, 
thank you very much.

It is so easy to light some candles, give some blood and mutter about evil 
deranged muslims.doesn't anybody ever ask themselves what islamic 
terrorism is REALLY about?

It all stems from something that was written in a letter on 2 November 1917 
(no, I'm not that fanaticalI just looked it up!) The Balfour 
Declarationthat, compounded by the unspeakable evil of the 
nazis, has led us to where we are today.

And btw..what an outrageous piece of cynicism for May to now 
declare a nationwide state of emergency. Blatantly using those dead kids to 
further her message about the need for "Strong & Stable" leadership.

My colleague is a boro fan. He said it was awful to watch despite eventual

Karanka is like mourinho. Thrives on division and is stubborn. How can you fall 
out with one of the best chairmen in football who has backed him to best of his 
ability 100%? 

Got a lot of time for boro. The night before their play off final in Trafalgar

Re: [LU] Plan b? Please no!

2017-05-24 Thread Jeremy Adams
Because I think Karanka plays unattractive football and also because I believe 
Monk has started something here and if we give him another season he could 
create something. Getting Karanka means we start all over again and have 
another "transitional" season.

Why? He actually did get promotion with Boro right?

I too would like Monk to sign up but his demands need to be in reason too. 
Having a Plan B is sensible and I do not think Karanka is a bad option.

I realize there are more important things in the world right now than the next 
Leeds manager but according to teamtalk Karanka is the plan B option if we cant 
agree terms with Garry Monk.


Please let this not be the case!

I'm of the opinion if you live in a democratic society and benefit from that, 
you've also got to accept responsibility for decisions made by democratically 
elected politicians.

Blair went to parliament, who voted by a large majority to back him.   That's 
how things work in a democracy, flawed tho it may be (esp with our ridiculous 
voting system)

Not really known yet if he had been identified by "Prevent" reported by his 
community, The guy only came back from Libya a few days, so was seemingly a 
mule for the real perpetrators.

We as a democratic society decided to go to war and I think part of the problem 
from our comfortable, long distance war, we've forgotten that War is hell, 
don't get involved in one if you aren't ready to face the consequences.

We do not want to be lectured about "terrorism" and "security" from an
Israeli, thank you very much.

It is so easy to light some candles, give some blood and mutter about evil
deranged muslims.doesn't anybody ever ask themselves what
islamic terrorism is REALLY about?

It all stems from something that was written in a letter on 2 November 1917
(no, I'm not that fanaticalI just looked it up!) The Balfour
Declarationthat, compounded by the unspeakable evil of the
nazis, has led us to where we are today.

And btw..what an outrageous piece of cynicism for May to now
declare a nationwide state of emergency. Blatantly using those dead kids to
further her message about the need for "Strong & Stable" leadership.

Agreed. I'm fed up of people standing shoulder to shoulder with Manchester, or 
candlelit vigils or lighting up the Eiffel tower. Means nothing. Isis don't 
care. Job done crusaders are dead. All the Facebook flags in the world won't 
help

I'm pretty sure this was the one that got though and dozens have been foiled 
though. 

Blaming Islam is a little bit like blaming all men  for rape but at the same 
time groups of people to self police and that needs to go on more. Didsbury 
mosque goers must have had a clue about him. 

We do need to knock the political correctness on the head, whether it be knife 
wielding gangs in London or religious extremism and get tougher

I doubt anyone could see the picture of the 8 year old girl and not get upset - 
anyone normal that is !Odd feeling around the place at present - I went to the 
Lowry Theatre last night and it was business as usual- almost - they never 
usually do any sort bag checking but last night they did have 2 old dears (it 
is mainly staffed by volunteers) looking in handbags. It was a sell out crowd 
and every seat was full so no-one appeared to be 'scared off' - it was odd on 
the way out afterwards to see 2 police cars - one from Wales with Heddu written 
on it - with 3 coppers stood with them, 2 with machine guns and one with a hand 
gun - they were getting pizza from a local pizzeria. I hate to see armed police 
and hope this does not become the normI know friends who are going, as normal, 
to the town centre tonight to watch their game and I am off into Piccadilly on 
Saturday for a few beers.
I do know a lad with 2 young daughters who had tickets for the MEN but could 
not go and gave the tickets away, thankfully to people who stayed safe (that 
would not be a good thing to have on your conscience if they had died) and he 
is worried about taking them into town over the weekend for the marathon or 
whatever it is. He does not want the terrorists to 'win' but fears for their 
safety and thinks that they will be too worried to enjoy themselves - difficult 
decisions
The saving grace of it all is the fact that it is one (or maybe a few) nutters 
who did this atrocious act but the number of people who did great things during 
and afterwards is in the hundreds if not more - rescuing people, giving free 
taxis, giving so much blood they have stopped taking it , people taking food to 
the hospitals, and the various collections for the victims families and for the 
two homeless lads who helped are going through the roof.
We will have the flag at half mast tonight at cubs to show our respect
I am not however having a bee tattooed on myself at weekend despite the 
Manchester tattoo association saying they will do them for a £50 donation to 
the victims fund

May I second Rich’s, post…Iv’e crie…...but not ashamed, I’m a father and 
grand-father and uncle. It’s heartbreaking, 
thinking, any of these unfortunate, lovely kids could have been one of my 
lovely kids…To Manchester people... I take 
my hat off to you all, you have been amazing, the way you “ALL" have come out 
and done your utmost, to help these 
magic people who were caught up in terror in you city……..with your courage, 
kindness, support and help…….
Thanks from a Yorkshireman.

Cheers and Beers
