Trivial things you don't understand/mildly annoy you

I can't sign that, I'm somewhat pro Reg's Merciless racism against the cheese eating surrender monkeys.

Well no-one's going to take your little Thailander views seriously if you don't create a counter-petition.

It's how we express our outrage these days.

[Ells]

So you don't like pork but you do like a bacon sandwich?!

Yes.
 

Right. Time for the TEF Action Group to mobilise again:

I would sign that but I've been caught like that before. Sign one thing on change.org and all of a sudden everyone and their brother is dying and needs your help. I only wanted them to make smartie tubes round again.

[Red Frog]

Yes.

I know, me too, but you can unsubscribe at a click, and this petition is *really* important.

PS. More chance of co-ordinated pan-European Smarties tube action with Britain as a strong voice at the EU sweeties table...

Exactly why I don't like signing these things

Good luck with that...it took the UK 27 years of EU argument to get the French to accept that the likes of Cadburys, Terrys and Frys made something they understood as chocolat, and so deemed it appropriate for sale within their borders.

Cadbury's is but a slither away from vanishing as the company we know and love.  Give it a couple of years and a sly recipe change will be put in place for Dairy Milk under the guidance of Mondelez.  The Crème Eggs have already been transitioned.

Its already gone. Everythings already shrunk to feed the green dollar monster.

So who's the bigger threat? The EU or the US?

Sorry its a link from the Mail, however before the thought police jump on me again the same story on the BBC didn't include below waist pictures.

My first thought was if you have lost all feeling in your left leg, that would be the one I would choose to have all the tattoo's on?

[RobertT]

You have to hand it to the Mail, they've got online sorted right now - it's all you ever find in searches.

Reminds me of this story, along similar lines. Remember this?

Exactly, isn't it something like the most commonly read English news website on the internet - or something like that!

[RobertT]

Yes, pops up for people in the USA as well.

[Reg Smeeton]

So who's the bigger threat? The EU or the US?

Definitely the US....take the case of Cadbury's, flogged off to Kraft with a loan from Goldman Sachs, who then close plants in GB making the traditional Fry's and Terry's brands they acquired, and ship production to Poland and Slovakia.

Goldman Sachs are then complicit in the 2008 crash, whereby banks have to be bailed out by the GB tax payer, including those who lost their jobs in Keynsham and York etc.

Which would be why Goldman Sachs are one of the largest funders of the Remain in the EU campaign...and very keen to see TTIP, make it even easier to profit from the labours of ordinary Europeans.

The original socialist premise in the 75 refendum was for an out vote, as the Common Market as was then, was seen as a bankers construct inimical with worker's rights.

When you end up with unelected bankers, like Jean-Claude Juncker at the head of EU, who made his name in creating tax evasion havens in Luxemborg, such that even David Cameron, a man not averse to benefiting from some off shore activity, found it distasteful, you know there are problems. 

The question should be how can the EU be reformed?  The US I regard as beyond salvation.

Well Reg, it certainly won't be Cameron and Gideon Osborne doing any reformation - they will just go along with whatever France and Germany want to do!!
