Help for Heroes.
Not everyone injured in Iraq or Afghanistan did something heroic.
It's not just you. Not everyone injured in Iraq or Afghanistan did something heroic.
A Help For Heroes sticker in a car is for me as much of a tt alarm as a "little princess on board" sticker.
An unpopular opinion of mine on PH is that all speed limits are the same. You either believe in them or you don't. Obeying 30 limits but exceeding NSL is an obvious double standard.
That smart energy meter's are not going to be good for you.
That you don't need 'connected everything' in your average flat or house when walking 2 steps to the light switch is faster than logging into your phone or speaking to Alexa.
That a handsfree kitchen cooking timer isn't a good enough reason to have Alexa and its ilk listening to you 24/7.
That Sonos and other small convenience speakers suck for sound quality.
That people who buy huge suv's for city use are tts.
Most Black cars with black wheels look naff, even worse if tinted.

LBGT couples are the new media darlings. It seems it’s impossible to make an advert or TV programme without said couples being in it. Tired of trying to explain to 10 and 12 year old kids one with special needs why blokes and girls are snogging same sex on tv
For the same reason the straight couples are snogging, because they love each other. I've explained that to 4 year olds without difficulty. One sentence should cover it. sir humphrey appleby said:
no one aged 65 or over should have been given a brexit vote.
If they’d asked you which way to vote, and then complied with your advice, would that have been okay?I assume that you may be thinking along the lines of, by the time everything went tits up because they chose not to vote the right way according to you, they’d be dead, and everyone in the U.K. would be suffering due to their inability to see the right path.
I’m over 65, and I voted remain because in my opinion it would be better for my grandkids to live in a country that was part of a united Europe, than to live in a country that will be beyond the pale as it were.
While mulling it over, I asked my elder son for his opinion, he’s lived in Germany for 30 years.
He said, “Your call Dad, but I don’t care how many immigrants come to Germany, I’d rather be in Europe pissing out, than in the U.K. trying to piss in.”
The NHS is being raped by health tourists and non contributing immigrants - an uncomfortable truth no one will admit to.
Boris Johnson is clever, but his brother Jo smarter still.
There's no such thing as gender fluid or non gender specific, you are male or female and don't "identify" as either. Get a life or fk off. We don't want to hear your whining and attention seeking.
Cannabis should be legalised, along with prostitution.
Our prisons are too soft and our law tilted in the favour of the criminal. Paedophiles and sex offenders do not need treatment, they need to be put into general population and take their chances.

There should be an annual poll to vote which high profile conman should be excuted, e.g. Fred the Shred, Philip Green.
Motability is a scam to line the pockets of motor traders with government disability benefits, and provide them with cheap low mileage cars. The users also get scammed for large amounts to repair each small knock and scrape, when they would be better off with an older car in the first place.
Burying and cremating people is a waste of good resources. Once the usable organs have been removed, the rest should be used for pet food or fertilizer.
The fishing industry should be compelled to breed and put back as many young fish into the sea as they take mature fish out.
Politicians only like wind turbines and solar panels because you can't pose for a photo next to an underwater tidal turbine.
Polygamy should be legalized. Bisexuals are automatically discriminated against by not being able to have a spouse of each sex, and if they can have more than one partner then everyone should.

I should imagine that is a very unpopular opinion.Edited by LimaDelta on Saturday 20th January 18:53
Will corporate greed, corruption and blatant profiteering as well as obscenely excessive executive pay levels ever get as much mass media coverage as the current irrelevancies that are wimmins rights, LGBT ''issues'' or the plight of ''refugees''?
