    BTW the UK was predicted to be 70 million by now anyway.
    I liked the one above but it seems pretty obvious to me. Here's Cambridge ; naturally existing in a place or country rather than arriving from another place. Then I rephrase my question, 80m waddya fink?

        What do I think? I feel sorry for you, you sad, inadequate, little man.

          Twig the wonder kid

          Discuss.

          Let me put my arms around your head
          Gee, it's hot, let's go to bed
          Don't forget to turn on the light
          Don't laugh babe, it'll be alright
          Pour me out another phone
          I'll ring and see if your friends are home
          Perhaps the strange ones in the dome
          Can lend us a book we can read up alone

          And try to get it on like once before
          When people stared in Jagger's eyes and scored
          Like the video films we saw

          His name was always Buddy
          And he'd shrug and ask to stay
          She'd sigh like Twig the Wonder Kid
          And turn her face away

          She's uncertain if she likes him
          But she knows she really loves him
          It's a crash course for the ravers
          It's a Drive-in Saturday

          Jung the foreman prayed at work
          That neither hands nor limbs would burst
          It's hard enough to keep formation with this fall out saturation
          Cursing at the Astronette
          Who stands in steel by his cabinet
          He's crashing out with Sylvian
          The Bureau Supply for ageing men
          With snorting head he gazes to the shore
          Which once had raised a sea that raged no more
          Like the video films we saw

          His name was always Buddy
          And he'd shrug and ask to stay
          She'd sigh like Twig the Wonder Kid
          And turn her face away

          She's uncertain if she likes him
          But she knows she really loves him
          It's a crash course for the ravers
          It's a Drive-in Saturday

            I have a suggestion. Instead of bleating on ineffectively on this forum where no one is interested in the random firings of your limited neurons, why don't you ACT. Have the courage of your convictions. Initiate revolution.
            Otherwise you'll go to your grave the bitter sad old man you are.

            HTH.
            Hard Brexit now!

              No good ever comes of posting on CUK.

                Wrong! My video is at over 10k hits. Which is quite amazing really as it is utter herring.
                Insanity: repeating the same actions, but expecting different results.

                  When have I given anything but things to discuss. Your wild extrapolation from a few words on a forum to someone who wishes 'revolution' is quite amusing.

                  I think we were having a debate which at least one person was enjoying and said so, I'm not here to entertain all and sundry. They also said you were doing your usual banal spoiling or someink.

                  Now run along twit twoo.

                    You were too stupid to see the wink? Or probably too up your own fundament.
                    Most probably both.

                      I wonder how many people who comment on Enoch have actually read the speech that got him fired?

                      He seems to be suggesting that basic public services such as NHS maternity provision would be denied to indigenous (and by that he seems to mean white) people because immigrants (and or the children of immigrants) would have the "whip hand" and get all the provision in preference to others.

                      To that extent I think he was mistaken and the speech doesn't really stand up to examination in a modern-day context.

                      Apparently, people have tried to find out who the woman who wrote to him about being a prisoner in her empty boarding house was without success. Since he's dead and she almost certainly is, we'll probably never know, but it would be interesting to hear the story from both sides.
