TonyE Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 Does this mean I can refer to Nicola Sturgeon as 'it' from now on? Please please. The Sturgeon is slippery and hard to catch, its ways are unpredictable, i would say "It" is a suitable definition upon the undecided nature of this creature.

Stuart Galbraith Posted May 2, 2019 Share Posted May 2, 2019 (edited) Yeah, I reckon it was a stitch up too. And a pretty stupid one because if he demands a criminal investigation then all kinds of interesting fur is going to fly. This could easily rip the Government apart if it goes the wrong way.

Panzermann Posted May 2, 2019 Share Posted May 2, 2019 Better draw a line after the stichup: Scientists found cocaine in freshwater shrimps when testing rivers for chemicals, a study said.[…]Their report said cocaine was found in all samples tested. Other illicit drugs, such as ketamine, were also widespread in the shrimp.[…] ​ https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-suffolk-48117678 Or snorting shrimp cocktail today?

Stuart Galbraith Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 And just in case nobody noticed....https://www.telegraph.co.uk/royal-family/2019/05/07/royal-baby-boy-latest-live-news-updates-meghan-markle-birth/The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are settling into life as a family of three after welcoming their baby - and now expectation is growing about their son's name.Harry announced to the world on Monday his wife had given birth to a boy and could not hide his happiness at becoming a father for the first time, to a baby he said was "absolutely to-die-for".The infant is believed to be the first mixed-race child born to a senior member of the royal family in centuries, and is a reflection of modern Britain with its culturally diverse population.Asked about a name for his son Harry said on Monday: "Still thinking about names. The baby is a little bit overdue, so we've had a little bit of time to think about it."Royal baby latest news | Meghan and Harry welcome baby boyArthur is the favourite with many of the bookies - a traditional royal moniker that features among the middle names of the baby's grandfather, the Prince of Wales, and his uncle the Duke of Cambridge.The seventh in line to the throne baby boy - an eighth great-grandchild for the Queen and Duke of Edinburgh - arrived at 5.26am on Monday, weighing 7lb 3oz.The as-yet-unnamed infant was believed to have been born in the sanctuary of Frogmore Cottage - the Sussexes' home on the Windsor Estate. But the Daily Mail reported that Meghan had her son at a London hospital, possibly The Portland.A spokeswoman for the hospital said: "We are unable to confirm speculation about individuals who may or may not have been cared for at The Portland Hospital."

Stuart Galbraith Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 My mother said Oliver, I said there is NO way they are going to name him after someone who gives Royals a Short Haircut. They were asking people in LA what they thought, and their conclusion was it ought to be an LA Name. Something like River. Or I guess you could call him Prince, so one day he would be Prince Prince.

Stuart Galbraith Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 And people wonder why we have a budget problem? https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7003917/Expenses-watchdog-suspended-official-credit-cards-belonging-377-MPs.html Hundreds of MPs including Jeremy Corbyn, Boris Johnson and nine Cabinet ministers have had official credit cards suspended by the expenses watchdog. They are among the 377 MPs to be penalised since 2015 for breaking the rules by not providing receipts or failing to pay back ineligible expenses. The Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority tried to prevent the disclosure, saying it would have a ‘chilling effect’ on its relations with MPs. But a former High Court judge reversed the decision, saying that the risk of embarrassing MPs was no reason to keep the information secret. Freedom of information requests from the Daily Telegraph show that the rules established in the wake of the expenses scandal – which erupted ten years ago today – are being routinely broken by politicians who still show a ‘lax and casual’ attitude to the way they account for taxpayers’ money. The amount taxpayers have to pay for MPs’ allowances has increased by 22 per cent since 2009. Last year the expenses bill was £117.4million – equivalent to £180,000 per MP. This includes accommodation, travel, hotels, subsistence and staffing costs. Mr Corbyn has apparently had his card suspended twice – in August 2015 and September 2017. Mr Johnson, the former foreign secretary, has had his suspended once. Energy minister Claire Perry, who attends Cabinet, admitted wrongly using her parliamentary credit card to pay for her Amazon Prime subscription. DUP MP Ian Paisley ran up debts of £1,193 and had his credit card suspended while repaying it. Since the 2015 election, 377 MPs have had their credit cards suspended, documents released under the Freedom of Information Act show. Many are repeat offenders – including Work and Pensions Secretary Amber Rudd. Nine MPs have had their card suspended more than ten times over the past three years, including prominent Tory backbencher Damian Collins and constitution minister Chloe Smith. Other Cabinet ministers, or MPs who sit in Cabinet meetings, to have had their cards suspended include Stephen Barclay, Greg Clark, Chris Grayling, Robert Buckland, Claire Perry, Rory Stewart, Jeremy Wright and David Mundell.

Stuart Galbraith Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 (edited) Funnily enough when I was at the Gloster Aircraft museum at the edge of Gloucester Airport (well worth a visit if anyone is in the area),. there was a plate on the wall announcing it had been opened by Winkle Brown. He had some connection with it, im not quite sure what. Id have love to have got him and Yeager in a room together. That would have been a converstation worth listening to.
