rollover Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 Quote Chinese 'cash for Brexit' furore A political storm erupted last night over claims that three former Cabinet Ministers secretly tried to earn thousands of pounds in a 'cash for Brexit' scandal. The senior politicians were lured to a luxury Mayfair office where they were secretly filmed discussing being paid for telling Chinese tycoons how to make money out of Britain leaving the EU. Andrew Lansley, Andrew Mitchell and Peter Lilley have all denied wrongdoing. Daily Mail There is a lot of money to be made from Brexit.

The times survey of writers in 2000 ish voted him top in the last (then) 50 years. I was giving imhal a chance as a google search might hit that article. And no I don’t agree with his rather strange political views. Just like the poetry. “Aubade” is pretty much as good as explanation of 20th century existentialism as anything Sartre ever wrote.

thehowler Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 Larkin's a dry old bird compared to Camus. And childless, I think. At least with kids you get the consolation of the genetic baton pass, the journey continues. But yes, confronting the void is a bit like wising up, accepting what must come - le Brexit, par example!

You say you want less people coming in - this is a fair argument. One that I have always said should be listened to and acted upon. But the same people that let too many to arrive are the same people who are steering this country onto the rocks. They cannot change, they don't know how. They only know how to ignore the interests of the people while filling their pockets. Maybe Brexit will be the shock that changes these things.

Serious Incredible. Throughout history populations leave, the Irish left, the Jamaicans left, the Polish and other poorer countries left. Why do you think the young would want to stay here? After 40 years of crap - and now with Brexit - an inward looking, isolated country with much-diminished prospects? A place run by the likes of Boris, Farage, Gove, Rees-Mogg - backed by their psychopathic corporate and banking friends. All keen on the Americanisation of Britain. Privatisation and a cheaper workforce. Education fecked, houses unreachable and paid-for healthcare on the way. Nope, not a very good place for the young's prospects and they know it.

Considered as not quite on par with his peers, a bit dim perhaps, but they can't get rid of him, so allow him to sit in his cubical all day long, hoping he'll find another job, preferrably far away. Obviously he tried that in Italy? But no cigar, not up to scratch. Now very resentfull. Likes to think he can 'detective', woefully bad at that too.
