  1. Yes - she missed an open goal by not rebutting the Trump smear. She says on Twitter she couldn't get the words over in the rabble but I'm more inclined to believe that she just didn't know. Also, she has said that McConnell was on same flight back last night - how ironic!
  2. I've got a Vu Ultimo. An excellent machine. Should work just by connecting it to Sky box and scanning for stations. However, depending on what you want to do you might need to be a bit of a geek to get the best out of these types of boxes. I've got all freeview channels without area restrictions, all non-HD Sky channels and also BT Sports HD and several other non SKY HD channels. Sky are combating card-sharing by pairing their HD boxes with cards but at the moment there are still lots of non-hd Sky boxes out there and that is why you can still get Sky SD channels
  3. Your back and shooting from the hip. ........ good on you for however long you stay
  4. By definition zonal means marking an area - this makes it easy for opponents to get a run from another "zone" and out jump defender.
  5. Jeremy Corbyn - it is simply not good enough and disrespectful to "her majesty" not to sing God Save The Queen. The drones don't like it. They have been programmed and conditioned all their lives to worship the Queen. The BBC and the drones will constantly remind you did a very bad thing so best comply. Never forget that before you could sit as an MP you had to swear allegiance to her majesty. Our so-called democracy is designed to exclude those such as you with your republican views.
  6. I once said "call a spade a spade" at a meeting where black people were present. No insult was intended but unfortunately some was taken.
  7. If he's building the fence then the posts and ugly side should be on his side (assuming he is not panelling both sides of posts).
  8. Hope Greeks have voted No because that is where there is some hope of things turning around. Expect it will be similar to our referendum with older voters, the ones who have gained the most, cowed by fear and voting for more austerity. The bail-out was always about protecting the lender banks with German and French having huge exposure to a Greek default. Greece is the weakest link in a collateral chain already stretched and if broken who knows the financial damage to countries and institutions.
  9. I think he said cybernat ... not that it makes a great deal of difference ...still a despicable insinuation from Marr and par for the course from BBC.
  10. I though Nicholson did well enough - though he was kinda gulping in air at times. I appreciate it must be difficult to think on your feet and always give sharp answers but there are always obvious and repeat type questions that can be prepared for. When it was suggest that it was not right that Scotland should have some kind of veto should the UK vote to leave E.U. then it could easily have been pointed out that it was possible that only England might vote to leave E.U. and the other 3 countries might be taken out as a consequence.
  11. If Carmichael remains then we will pay a bill, probably in excess of a £million, to cover his salary, expenses and office. I contributed to the fund to get him out - happy in the knowledge that if he is removed by other means then the fund will go to food banks.
  12. Just posted this to BBC's facebook page for Kay Adams radio programme - Kaye Adams radio programme apparently and according to it's own strap line "Gets to the heart of the stories making the news". So what about the Alistair Carmichael scandal. Not a mention of it on Kaye Adams radio programme. The phone in topic is "are meat eaters hypocrites"! After a weekend of protests in Orkney and Shetland and the day after Carmichael states that he wont be resigning you would think the moral and legal aspects of this would be a topic for the phone in. I do remember Kay Adams spending a whole programme questioning whether Alex Salmond was a liar so it would seem that Unionist MPs are not subject to the same inquisition.
  13. You can experiment with different % votes on this predictor http://www.scotlandvotes.com/holyrood SNP are getting my vote on both constituency and list. It seems too chancy to give the Greens second vote in hope that it will increase overall Independence supporting parties.
