I agree though, a pretty pathetic panel.....what a whinging bunch of gits (especial Nigel "everything is Europe's fault" Ferage).Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God? - EpicurusComment

I prefer to take time off of my own accord as opposed to something thats dictated to me when public transport grinds to a halt in the capital over a few inches of snow. A bit pathetic really. Even some of the underground was cancelled FFS. Just glad it didn't snow too much in WW2 otherwise we really would have been in trouble.....
Several buses today were felled in the tracks by a nasty bit of slush...
Rant over. Where's my beer?

Ahhhhhhhh! **** it. It's the weekend!I'm better than dirt. Well, most kinds of dirt, not that fancy store-bought dirt... I can't compete with that stuff.Comment

well we can't do things without checking it's OK with EU. 80% of our laws come from EU too. Go figure- we're not in control of our own destiny when we're being told what to do by EU.Comment

We have a reputation of being a nation of moaners. Clearly it's justified.

Just thought I'd give you an update on whats happening in civilisation. Didn't really want or care for your xenophobic attitude to people who live in London. Get over yourself.
Nation of moaners? Interesting. Maybe I just dont accept things as they are and realise things need to change.I'm better than dirt. Well, most kinds of dirt, not that fancy store-bought dirt... I can't compete with that stuff.Comment

"xenophobia - having abnormal fear or hatred of the strange or foreign".
Unless you are calling yourself strange? Ah, I see your point.Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God? - EpicurusComment
