My first thought was that someone's parents needed to do something about controlling access to the internet, I then remembered the poster mentioning that he had been a builder for 28 years, which would make him mid 40's.

I was then, well, just lost!

And not just any builder, he's a northern builder - apparently it's a hard life.

From earlier - not much earlier either

No im a self employed builder who due to my job I currently suffers from a number of life changing ailments. I had my plan to retire in 8 years and as my family tend to not live over 62 I was hoping for 5 years retirement.

So 62 - 5 = 57

57 - 8 = 49

So I'm going with late 40's

Our 'ard nut northern builder after a full day on site; now ready to sort out the Nancy boys on PH.

I own a couple of foreign properties valued in Euros. I'm gonna try to flog one whilst the exchange rate is good. Overall though, it will be a inflationary trigger and we'll all pay in the long run.

You were only complaining the other day about struggling with school fees,affording the mortgage and having to make jam!

SilverSixer! Billy Bullstter more like

As soon as I read that paragraph everything became clear, the continuous bleating about how the poor will be effected is actually concerns over ones own fairly healthy personal wealth.

Oh I still have sympathy for him - it's a terrible situation to be in, school fees, mortgage all need paying and then to be at risk of losing your jobs is no fun

My foreign employer is cutting nearly 2000 jobs, my wife’s foreign employer is about to announce the same.

Thanks for putting our family finances at such risk for your purported long-term utopia – I’m sure we’ll be able to pay the mortgage and school fees with our home-made jam while we look for other “opportunities”.

Looks like selling an asset will resolve the issue of not having to sell home-made jam while "opportunities" are looked for...

His rant has been removed. Probably the end of the thread since it now seems perfectly acceptable to try and instigate physical violence by inviting people up to Yorkshire to insult builders.

I'm no hard case but I've spent 28 years on building sites in the North of England.

16 + 28 = 44

Of course he could have gone on to sixth form and then Uni, but based on the thread, it's a stretch and one I won't make, as I'm a nutter anyway according to some on here,the suggestion is enough to confirm it

I'm surprised he lasted as long as he did, given last night's rants - his sensitive contributions will be missed, but not a lot..

PH needs more characters like that.

Have you seen his thread about fag ends on beaches?

I know I shouldn't, but will have a peek now.

That cartoon actually sickens and disgusts me. Revolting.

They say that the truth hurts.

Wow - you never struck me as such a sensitive type.

Not least as it's neither racist nor xenophobic and any offence is in the mind of the taker.

Presumably the knee-jerk critics assume that the cartoonist is uneducated and elderly.

'It's racist, xenophobic and quite frankly offensive.' is a phrase blurted out by all do-gooders today.

It's even used by charities. No? Take TACT the fostering and adoption charity who tweeted today that the 'child' in the migrant pics was in fact a translator. It was a lie. They even tweeted good on Gary Lineker for outing 'racists in our society'.
THEY SHOULD BE CONCENTRATING ON THEIR WORK, but no, they concentrate on their AGENDA!

Strange. They are now back-peddling ...fast!

[hidetheelephants]

While you're all mithering about important issues like cartoons, ponder this;

Some nonentity MEP has been getting airtime in the last couple of days moaning about how Boris apparently had no idea what's going on when he appeared before the EU committee for paperclip standardisation, then today more wittering about how Merkel is saying 'Nein' to any negotiation prior to A50; this prompted me to consider that perhaps if d'Estaing or the mandarins drafting A50 had drafted a robust, cohesive and definitive process for exit rather than scribbling out the legislative equivalent of 'sub-editor to complete later' before sodding off for another 4 hour wine break, we wouldn't be having any of this nonsense.

I must thank you leavers for showing me your true colours yesterday.

Not a pretty sight regrettably, and even via an anonymous medium like a forum not people I would wish to associate.

Enjoy your brave new world.

What happened?

[All that jazz]

He does not wish to associate with us "leavers" and has wished us well in our "brave new world" so presumably (hopefully?) that means he's going to do one and no longer spam this thread with his "I don't care either way" bull st and do us all a favour.

Bye-bye.

He's flouncing out because he's been outed as a hypocrite. Lots of the evidence has been removed.

You sound bereft? I guess you'll have to try and ally yourself with SS or somebody - that's if he's finished his vomiting yet.

"Robert Courts won by 5,702 votes, with the party's vote share falling from 60% in 2015 to 45%, as the Lib Dems surged past Labour into second."


Right wing press will say "comfortably won with a good majority"

the left wing press will be "Tories in panic and disarray"

[anonymous-user]

Was this an anti brexit vote ? Quite a swing towards the only pro-remain party. in one of the Conservatives safest seats.

[cirian75]

There will be lots of counter spins by all sides involved.

The previously "in the desert" lib dems taking 30% from 7% is quite a shift.

Probably a combination of labour being unelectable and anti-brexit.

Labour being unlectable and the least worst alternative.
