Things around here are going downhill rapidly, and I don’t mean I have stopped blocking a certain contributor.

I would never suggest you to be a member, accredited or otherwise of the Grammar Police, One would suggest that if that is an irrebuttable presumption you would not have made an error in your post you referenced.

The mistake in your reply quoted would also bar you, in my opinion, from entry into said enforcement body.

And yes I did see the amusingly apt reply and was myself entering the realms of amusement and entertainment for others by suggesting that only things posted on YouTube appear to be acceptable ‘evidence’ and was suggesting that your statement should have a link attached for it to be acceptable.

Huge,

ha !

PUNCTUATION is a measly and insignificant detail that we can safely ignore. Should a word not comply with the antiquated British version I'm sorry you are behind. You will find I use the updated and modern version. It is the set of varieties of the ENGLISH language native to the UNITED STATES and accepted by the UN, EU, and the world.

I do  NOT like the previous term. Henceforth  I  PREFER my official title (drum roll please)   SUPREME GROUCH GRAMMANDO  (SGG)

Yep, absolutely, you are correct, as are your fellow Countrymen (persons) in all things.

Things like July 4th is ‘Independence Day’ or perhaps even Paul Revere’s famous ride all the way to Concord.

I am prepared to accept your pronunciation of ALLLLUUUUMINNUUUM, but it stops there.

So is he a potato Brexiteer, or some other carbohydrate?

Starch  silly me  that predictive tx on those silly iPhones,  they have  a mind of there own should always check the vocabulary before pressing the button .

But maybe instead of starch it should have read  dumb   instead  now that sounds  much  better .

On a more serious Issue looking at the facts .£840,000 of tax payers money fraudulently spent on brexit research by this government , which is just the  tip of iceberg  on how they are dissing out tax payers cash to there friends .PPE that never was an APP that doesn’t work we are talking millions and millions of tax payers money given to pals of the government and for what nothing !!!

When you can award millions of pounds of tax payers money to a company that had no ships  regarding the great brexit project anything is possible by this Buffon of a government.

When you look at what this government is doing with our cash and how it’s being dished out it’s frightening  , the more you look at it the more it smells .

U.K. company’s on panic mode with brexit petrified of what a no deal brexit will bring , but they are told don’t worry a brexit trade deal is the easiest thing in the world .What a  complete  load of rubbish that has turned Out to be .

But this is brexit all over full of lies and deceit.
 

Most companies now lack the time and resources to prepare for a no-deal EU exit, according to the CBI, with one in five saying they were less prepared for Brexit than in January due to coronavirus disruption.

In a survey by the employers’ group, three-quarters of companies said they were concerned about a further economic shock from a failure to agree a trade deal with the EU — the UK’s biggest trading partner.

More than half of companies reported no change in their level of preparedness for Brexit, less than six months before the UK’s transition period with the EU comes to an end following Britain’s exit from the bloc. But 21 per cent said preparations had gone backwards since the start of the year and are preparing for the worst .

As only between 5 and 8 percent of UK companies trade with the EU, "Most companies" couldn't give a fig...

Who do you think you are kidding?
