Conservative vote winner?

It's not going to happen.

Rishi knows it's not going to happen.

The Tories know it's not going to happen.

We all know it's not going to happen.

We got exactly what was voted for.

The fact it wasn't what you expected is because you had no idea what it would actually be.

Lots voted for it. Not just you. But nobody seems happy with it

There was a large degree of racism between, blacks, coloured and Asians when I was in South Africa many years ago.

it came as something of a surprise to me that we have some degree of it here.

I have seen signs of friction between a Sikh and a Hindu I worked along side with. Rather different as no signs at all before certain things went on in India for a short period. I assume it was short as no news here. They of course hear about it.

Another case. A born here African. Highly qualified and also intelligent. His parents gave him an english forename and no problems with the surname. He did get interviews. A friend of his, similar never did just due to his name. My boss at the time who employed him grew up in the normal areas of Handsworth. Hard not to be multicultural coming from there.

Me - a change of director. I mentioned interviewing some one with an odd name wondering mainly about their current work area, The director said I don't want any of those here. The previous one wouldn't have said anything like that. More concerned about getting work done and him being a useful person.
 
I think its a great idea...take all the disaffected youth riding around on mopeds armed with knives and give them combat training, and for good measure we could get them to be unpaid coppers and medics too...quality written all over it.

Actually the same method used with the Police went in yonks ago. It takes time. It helps. There is always inertia.

Your also being racist in a certain way inferring a drop in quality due to race. Do you apply that to GPs, nurses, MP and many other areas? The main problem with conscription is lack of choice and introducing it. Colour etc irrelevant in that respect.

No you illiterate twonk. The instructors would have to be scaled up from the existing army. It's common for more promising junior NCOs to do a stint in a training role but the pool isn't infinite and not many would be looking forward to a year of babysitting people who don't want to be there.

I don't mean to be rude but what ? A born here African... so a British person then not an African.. is the population of Kent born here French then ? So he was well qualified and also intelligent...so how would he become well qualified without being intelligent ? He had to disguise his origins to get a job and that's multicultural ?

Really ?

It’s a far better idea than giving 16 & 17 year olds the vote

Why is that?

Oh that's right, old gits who voted to limit their life choices don't realise that the younger generations are a lot smarter than the xenophobic/racist old wrinklies ;)

If you exist long enough you have a hell of lot to explain to your grand kids...

And they ain't gonna like it...

Btw, did you do national service?
 
We had our 18 year old banging on a while back about this conscription caper :giggle: Banging on about getting sent to fight the Russians:giggle:

Fell upon me to advise and give him some sound advice :cool:

Told him getting shot at us not so bad it’s just the getting shot bit that is a problem

Mind you I did tell him that getting captured by some fat hairy arrissed Russian who is gay with a 9 inch watsit could be a problem
