I feel very sad about this stuff Berni, regardless the result I feel the damage is done.

That aside I thought in life people are usually encouraged to take chances and venture into the unknown. rather than play it safe.
Also I think the votes should not be counted during the night :hehe: I've done some night shifts in my time and it's not a place for complicated tasks like counting.

Sadly, a lot of people are cringing, unprincipled cowards, f. They do what they're told by the big man from the government/bank/whatever because he tells them terrible things will happen otherwise. :shrug:

I know what you mean about nightshifts. I used to do nights in a refrigerated warehouse. It was the most desperate place you've ever seen. The poor *******s were so cold, knackered and miserable, they used to cheer themselves up by howling 'CUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUNNNNNNNNNNTTTTTTT!' at the tops of their voices so it echoed round the place. :-(

I was once given a lift home by a black bloke called Socrates. Being a fresh-faced 19 year-old I said: 'Like the philosopher, you mean?' He'd named himself after the footballer when he was young (?!), had never heard of the philosopher and thought I was taking the piss :-(

[Pat Vegas]

:hehe: I always felt the hours between 3 and 5 were the worst. Worked nights in the hotel a few times and had a stint as the spare night manager :-( Then did security.

One day I was sent to another site to cover. did the patrols and that then this over enthusiastic fella who worked there showed me his photo collection of castles. I said that's a nice castle. 'THAT'S NOT A CASTLE IT'S A FORT!' :That told me

After ages of these photos he then said to me it's time get the party started. He then started playing episodes of Sharpe on his laptop.

In the film, it's actually a local syndicate boss talking to one of his minions, but the point is, I suppose, that it could be *any* boss talking to any employee.

You joke, of course, but it's actually how we end up with every single government we get. Every election, people choose that which they think will suit their pockets and that which they find least scary. And then these self-same voters spend the next five years moaning about how ineffectual and unprincipled they are and how they're all the same no matter who you vote for, etc, etc.

I think IUFG would take issue with some of the language and threats, tbh. Threatening to put your employee's wife on the streets to be ****ed in the ass by niggers and Puerto Ricans is pretty certain to end in an expensive tribunal imo.

Well no, despite the obvious economic argument (one so obvious a Communist can see it) there's the whole idea of solidarity with Europe, the idea that island mentalities are outmoded and silly and a quite heartening revolsion with the nasty racial tactics.

And then you dare to tell us what we ought to do and how awful we are.
Seriously, you're a caricature of a pathetic, paper tiger leftist who sucks on the tit of capitalism while still posing in his teenage leftist garb.

It's sad.

Put your money where your mouth is, then: **** off somewhere where the political climate suits you. After all, you're an 'internationalist', aren't you? Go somewhere where the system you affect to despise doesn't pay you enough money to keep you in Jags. Then tell us how much fun you're having being ideologically pure.

I won't hold my breath. You're a poseur and nothing more.

Even more amusing: go to Ireland and wander around telling everyone that you're Irish. That'll be funny. You'll be another pathetic cliché - the Englishman who pretends to be Irish while real Irish people take his money and laugh at him behind his back. And the worst of it is that you're intelligent and self aware enough to know that's what they're doing, but will do it anyway. :hehe:

You're just a sad bunch of clichés. You desperately want to belong to something, but are too arrogant and elitist ever to admit to belonging to the culture and society you grew up in. So what do you do? Attach yourself to something - anything - else. Irishness, 'Europeaness', 'Communism'(ha!), even ****ing Yorkshire, ffs! :hehe:

Anything but admit what you are: white, English and middle class.
