And if you do would you expect to get sacked or maybe helped & extra training instead?

If I nearly killed someone? Possibly due to lack of care or even a malicious act?

I’d be out of the door before I’d said “But…”

We need knives at work to do the job. Some guy brought his own in from home, not approved by H&S. He was gone within the hour. No injury, no damage, just not taking care of his and others safety.

So at the wheel of a bus and knocking cyclists about? You are done.

Unfortunately, he’ll probably walk into another bus operator and get another job without much fuss

Tories profligate spending commitments

Pennies compared to the barmy Green policies!

a complete no brainer

Except it would be against a lot of the key labour areas who had the clearest leave vote in the Ref

See previous pages ad nauseum for details

every party should be doing their best to keep the tories out

In fairness, that’s what the tories are doing and it’s working out very well for them

Are you suggesting he’s being stabbed in the back by Watson because the Tories aren’t organised enough to stab him in the front? :)

A new deal, if possible?

You are already back pedalling

You seem confused about what an opposition party means

Bet I’m not.

a clear leave option

Do you really believe that’s what that looks like to folk who didn’t grow up in the shadow of Kier Hardie’s cap?

New Deal in 3 months? Three years of pissing about got us exactly here.

Don’t make me laugh.

Disonnance- seriously?

LD are Remain, so appealing to Remainers

Tory are Brexit

Labour are “vote for us, and then we’ll decide what we are”

Labour’s wishy washy stance is not definite enough for a roving vote. They could hoover them all up and be an actual opposition party for the first time in years

Why would a second referendum have a different result?

Because the prospect of being governed by Europe is much more attractive than leaving these clowns in charge?

I admire the certainty of tj’s belief in Labour, but question the reality of it

If voting LD would hand victory to the Tories, why don’t Labour stand for Remain?

Is it because a large swathe of the blue collar ground in support they rely on are strongly pro-Brexit?

Is that the skeleton in the cupboard that Corb’s vacillating is hiding?

I’d have asked why were they in such a hurry as to require that sort of driving yet still had the time to pull you over?

I did say that if they wanted to hoon around at 90mph and intimidate people out of their way, they could always put their blue lights on.

Otherwise you are an onanist, hence the gesture.

when a BMW got right up behind me flashing his headlights

I had this in the summer. So close behind I couldn’t see his headlights at 70mph. When I let him past and gave him a rude signal I was pulled over as they were unmarkerd rozzers.

They told me they were writing me up for ‘disorderly conduct’ for the rude signal.

I took a picture of both the driver and his mate and said I would have to make a formal complaint for dangerous driving.

They backtracked somewhat.

Police won’t do anything, dashcam or not. They don’t care.

Never given a penny to Murdoch and never will

Sky isn’t owned by Murdoch, it was sold to Comcast #justsaying

People still have sky tv? People still “record” stuff?

Where I live we can’t get any other type of tv. Which limits choice a bit

Ferrari look all at sea now.

Vettel now 5th in the championship! Would anyone have bet on that at the start of the season?

Nobody who has any sense and a fiver would do that.

Leclerc, maybe. Bottas won’t beat Lewis over a season

The only party offering and able to provide a second referendum. If you’re a remainer, the simple fact is that a labour govt is the only route to stopping brexit.

Horseshit

If Labour has said something as clear and definite as that it’s been kept very low key. Even their own front bench aren’t aware of it.

I suspect it’s a case of optimistically reading between the lines by fans of the Corb, rather than policy

I do recall someone meeting Lydon backstage and he was pleasant and matey.

In front of the cameras he was transformed into a full blown monster just by having an audience.

I doubt he cares about anything much other than what’s in the fridge these days; it’s all a pantomime to keep himeself ‘relevant’

Audi drivers are consistently mentalists

Hi! *waves*

Long-Bailey has outlined the Labour Brexit stance with credibility at last.

“That will be a decision that will be taken at the time by our party”

Awesome. That’s a party of opposition, right there.

I would rather walk. As should you, by your argument, as it would save you even more money.

I don’t miss mine one bit. One fine day I had to fill it up 4 times because the range is so bad.

They were responsible for hybrids being banned from the company as they promised so much, and cost twice as much to run as a good diesel.

an immediately available cheap lease Outlander hybrid

I know why it would be available…They are horrid

At my place of work there are two methods of opting out. The reimburse private miles (as above) and the buy your own fuel version

This is reimbursed on a percentage basis; if 90% of your miles are business you will get 90% of the cost of fuel back; whether electrons or hydrocarbons.. It’s fair, but needs someone at the other end to administer the faffage

The end of a venetian blind

Poor bastard

So much this.

At first it sounded a bit comic, then like a youthful drunken prank gone wrong and finally a desperate act that was dragged out beyond suffering. Awful

Dead pilot not being prosecuted is fairly easy to explain.

Driver of the Croydon crash train not being prosecuted I don’t understand at all.

“Can’t be my fault, i was asleep”

That’ll be an extra 26 votes per constituency. :)

Labour need to be more central to get into power. They can’t chase even more marginal policy

You do know who she is don’t you? I don’t find it at all incredible that her battles in the past have lead her to see racism in places where it isn’t

She is being racist herself here. She assumes that the LFB are all white and made their judgements from that standpoint.

Just because she has met some who do, not everyone with a white face thinks that people of colour are worth less than themselves.

She’s using her prejudice to distract from the real culprits. @Northwind has it bang on

if you really oppose this Conservative government the most effective way of removing them

…is to vote Labour

Wow, that must have taken some big-time number crunching. What a waste of the internet.

The only realistic, unequivocal option for Remainers is the LibDems. If they vote as the Brexit Ref the LD should walk it.

But of course, they won’t. But why not?

I don’t understand the ‘Tactical Vote’ page. Is that Labour’s masterplan? “Vote for us, go on, please?”

Lolz at ‘decorate his flat’!

Sorry its just how things are in what Theresa made for you.

They were lazy and disinterested when St Tony was at the helm

Not really, he was driving all het up and red misty, it was always going to go badly.And now he’s last.

Albon? Calm, quick and third. Good lad.

In the old days a little prick like de Klerk

He’s a shortarse with girl hair, but he’s as tough as teak.

He’s a good watch at Sale, always grits his teeth and gets stuck in; doesn’t matter how big, he’s sure he can take them down.

It’s his own stupid fault. As usual.

He was in a right mood last year after just been beaten by his teammate. He’ll be fit to burst today.

In fairness, Laura has been in the wind for a bit

He’ll never beat Dwayne Johnson in the election

I think Corbyn is very much the person we need in charge

But he isn’t really in charge; he’s a puppet for Momentum.

Labour need a leader who can lead, then they could walk it. Corbyn is unelectable to the uncertain centre.

with a decent leader they would already be in number 10

actually observed her using her phone as she crossed the road

Then I shall withdraw the remark and put in it’s place “crossing the road without looking”. Which will always be a bad idea.

it seems he was, in fact, a bit of a cock

He really was. An odious oik.

But he found himself in the middle of a fatal accident due to a woman crossing the road while looking on her phone. If he was in an EV travelling as fast, as quietly, the woman would still be dead, and he would likely have walked away as ‘being involved in an accident’ rather than the Grim Reaper mowing down folk on his track bike.

Surely whether someone is pleasant wouldn’t affect their access to justice?

Would it?

I am very aware of saying the pedestrian was culpable in the incident is easily twisted into ‘victim shaming’, but if you walk into a road without looking there must be a little blame? When I was a kid the squirrel on tv was very clear about it.

The whole episode could be about painting Gal Gadot in chocolate and I still wouldn’t watch it

What if you bought the bike second hand already hacked? Plead ignorance?
