Air travel should be much more expensive. There's far too many people jetting around the world for various trivial reasons, using up fossil fuel that isn't being replaced.
Agreed. I regularly make business trips to suppliers based in central London and in Barcelona.

You know that something's seriously fked up when I buy return flights to Barcelona for literally half the price of a return train ticket to Euston from my home in Warwickshire.

Richard Branson is a fine upstanding citizen, a highly moralistic business leader and anyone who describes him as a grasping tax dodging sun dried Bee Gee is just another mouthy count(sp?).

The steam-powered piston engine needs a comeback in motorcars (with an electrically-heated fuel tank with inbuilt superheater and fuel pipes) - more environmentally friendly than electric cars

Capitalism will eat itself, swallow what´s left of democracy with it and st out something on the Putin scale.

Our 50+ generation will be hated by future generations, your kids & grandchildren included, and rightly so,

for we made or tolerated so many wrong descisions and passed the point of no return at full throttle.

Most problems in the public sector including the NHS are far more complex than giving them more money will resolve. Not burning the stuff and employing managers who out source their job to private consultants at exhorbitant costs might be a good start though.

Have we done race. I'll do one, mixed race people are genetically superior to less diverse humans. Subjectively they are more attractive but objectively they have stronger immune systems, linked to better cognitive skills, taller and potentially culturally more aware and educated. Again social and economic situation of individual cases will vary widely. I'm not mixed race but the more the merrier for me.
It's called hybrid vigor.

That's just a fking opinion not an unpopular opinion, I've got to bail on this thread now but someone please police it in my absence. Gods speed one and all and if someone starts a thread entitled something like "Opinions, care to share" it should be well subscribed.

You seem to be rather up tight, maybe the internet isn’t a good place for you if other peoples opinions make you froth like that.

Dry your eyes buttercup it was only a small swear. Read the fking thread title and try again, I want to read UNPOPULAR opinions not other peoples general fking opinions, frothing a bit but I like frothing.

How does a world war thin them out? War is not survival of the fittest it’s the destruction of the fittest. How many gluten free vegans are in the British army do you reckon?

They’ll just develop bone spurs and dodge the draft....

A 5.5-litre V8 petrol engine in an estate car is perfectly acceptable and being understressed will probably keep going and outlast many hybrids and cars designed to be 'environmentally friendly' (not mine):
Agree with tbe first point, but I can't see most V8 Mercs outliving the average Prius anytime soon.

Nobody drank Prosecco before 2008. It’s known as recession-Champagne for a reason...
I'am not 100% sure but I would imagine that Prosecco was costumed in Italy pre 2008! wink
I live in Italy 6 months of the year. Only Brit tourists drink Prosecco. wink
And I'am from Italy and I can assure you Italians do but not by the pint! wink

Madonna is a multi-millionaire and doesn't need my money...she and the rest of the multi-millionaires in the entertainment industry can GTF!
What about all the non multi-millionaire musicians?
And the thousands of people employed in the industry most of whom do not earn and will never earn big-buck money but whose salaries are dependant upon those enjoying the fruits of their labour paying for it.

Ok - how about you seem a nice and balanced guy most people would like to be more like. That would seem to be a reasonably unpopular opinion i reckon? I thought you were fking off by the way?

OK, try this for size: Tony Blair was a fine Prime Minister, who did what he thought was best, even when presented with poor quality information by British intelligence. He was largely responsible for improving public services in the UK, whilst being fiscally responsible. Things only went wrong after Gordon Brown succeeded him.
