  1. And a rag to a bull ? took the bait like a rabid dog in your come ?. now is your brexit going well no it isnt and just for good measure did madam Teresa get any trade deals of course she didnt infact the whole brexit process is nothing short of a total shambles and gets worse by th day and now it looks and now it looks like labour are about to trump the Torys with brexit how humiliating but lets face this government with a party split from top to bottom have zero chance of ever securing the best deal for Britain they are a shambles .

    Red rag, arse, you got caught posting crap again don't try and make out you did it deliberately.

    Corbyns going to trump May over brexit ?? How do you work that one out

  2. And as she was visiting an Africa commonwealth countrie Leeds is £64 billion gdp what is the Gdp of Kenya is there plenty of dancing needed.

    You said the combined gdp of the African countries she visited was less than leeds, which as she visited Kenya, Nigeria & South Africa whos combined gdp is in the region of $770 billion means leeds must have a gdp in excess of that, which it doesn't so you were spouting Shiite as you usually do.

  3. And a warning from business scaremongering ? that's what they will say less than 6 months to go and Tory govement have made one of biggist balls ups in the history of this country David Davis for a year went to meetings on brexit with an empty suitcase Teresa Dismay dancing in Africa trying to get trade deals When their economys combined are no bigger than Leeds its laughable business know it the public its just dim wits in Tory govement that dont the brexit circus continues as goes on and on and on the Tory govement have failed the British people Teresa may should chuck the towel in now and call an election if she dare you know what happened in the last one when she was 30 points in lead .?

    Leeds economy must be doing really well if it's GDP is in excess of $700 billion which is what the combined gdp of Nigeria, Kenya and South Africa are.
  4. If you got it in the 70s it isn't worth a whole hell of a lot now and even current immunisation is only fully effective for 3 -5 years, besides if smallpox emerges again it's possible it will have come from stockpiles produced at the facility in Zagorsk and depending on who you believe may have been genetically modified rendering your immunisation about as much use as a chocolate fireguard.

  5. If Brexit is the true will of the British people, why would anyone in favour of Brexit fear another referendum?

     

    Why would Leavers, in 2018, fear an emphatic endorsement of the 'will of the people' from 2016?

     

    Why do Leavers call more democracy anti-democratic, and an advisory referendum the last word on the matter?

    So why not just have a referendum every 12 months in case people change their minds, never mind the cost let's just keep on holding referendums "just in case" or is just a case of just one more until you get a vote that suits your opinion.

    It seems that there are doubts about whether we can be trusted with such sensitive information. That's disregarding the amount of input we've had into developing the system!

     

     

    John.

    Its a bit of a p1ss take that apparently now we can't be trusted with the system yet the EU still want to share the information obtained by our security services, well f**k off would be my response to that you can't have one without the other.

  7. Setting any jollity aside for a moment, only two more days have passed and the death toll has risen to 61!

    With 103 suspected cases in total, that's a scary high mortality rate - although it will likely drop when help arrives and supportive care becomes possible.

    Ebola Zaire has a mortality rate of 60 - 90% and with the exception of the Reston I believe all the other strains are 25% or greater.
  8. Ebola also has potential as a bioweapon.

    Such a scenario was covered in the 1996 Tom Clancy novel "Executive Orders".

    I can think of several ways that it could be sourced and employed with minimal technical skill but I'm certainly not going to post details here.

    Already been tried by the Aum Shinrikyo, they sent a team to Africa but failed to obtain any cultures of the virus
  9. Adaptation in humans would be likely to make it less lethal and more easily transmissible. So there is a little balance there. I think the big fear would be something highly transmissible out of the gate. Mind you, it doesn't take a high case fatality rate to be terrifying - the 1918 flu only had a low single digit CFR but is estimated to have infected a third of the population. Something that "only" killed ten or twenty percent of victims would be apocalyptic with influenza-like transmissibility and haemorrhagic fever horror.

    Variola major could be pretty much what you describe, Good job we got rid of it, pity the Russians weaponised it.

  10.  

    What - and not rub this little gem in his face?

    I can't be bothered Ken it won't get past his blinkers anyway, he'll dismiss it as garbage written in a rag of a paper but then in no time will link to things written in the same rag if it backs his view.

    But it did make me chuckle when I read the article.

  11. Is darky still ok? After all we have stopped using mulatto for some reason ,half caste? ,after all Jamaicans dont like being called africans ,some elitist slavery pride i think?

     

    Now it appears you can be a person of colour!!! Well perhaps not albinos they're 'goods' for harvesting methinks

     

    Is a person 'of colour' any particular one? Or do you only need your great grt grt grandmother to be one who gets laid by another colour ?

    As seen in this documentory

    Person of colour or coloured person offends me as I'm coloured (I have 354 hours worth of tattooing that makes me so) please use monochromatic instead.
  12. I can't say I have ever based how much I trust someone on their race or religion.

     

     

    Or, perhaps, at passport control? Perhaps we could use the existing powers to ensure people are checked? Would that solve the problem of people sneaking out of the country in Burkas without infringing on the civil liberties of British citizens to wear what they damn well please?

    Trouble is you can't wear what you damn well please anyway

  13. Snakey1,

     

    I would ask you the same question I posed to Hugh. WHY? - This topic is no longer a debate. Citations of authorities without rigor are common place. But more importantly it's a done deal. You guys are simply giving Cod the opportunity to move on to 7,000 posts.

     

    If this thread has produced a single thread of fact, that fact is that there are unknowns. Seems OK to most - bring it on!

     

    Phone

    True phone I shouldn't bother really. But sometimes I just can't resist, it's like scratching an itch.
  14. People have right to change there minds but what have you got to fear it should be a brexit majority.again now people now know the facts of brexit .

    So suppose the vote goes your way, can we have another in 6 months and another 6 months after that and so on and so forth because people may have changed their minds or is it they can change their minds but only if it suits you.

  15. Yes but there is well over 1000000 more of the young generation now eligible to vote since the 2016 referendum and they aint happy with whats being done to them they are the ones brexit fear the most if there was another referendum Tommorow brexit would almost certainly be history and very well might be yet .

    So let's have a new referendum every couple of years as circumstances and population demographics change, what a crock of sh1t. It's one thing I agree with David Cameron on, it was a referendum not a neverendum.

  17. Not just farm workers snakey, our ferry firm employs an awful lot of crew who, for logistical reasons have to sleep in accommodation provided.

    Farms are probably the most well known example though which I would have thought even cod would have known. The agency get out is popular in the construction industry amongst others.
