Yes the sight of rapists, peados and murderers on death row appeals to me a lot, try not to get yourself on there Boris. Being a rampant socialist in some states warrants that punishment so look after yourself.

My posts are just reflective of my views on a given subject. They can vary quite a lot so it's pointless to pigeon hole them. Anyhow, America has some great places/people/scenery etc :D


Mate I think America is the best country in the world and will be going back there in January for a holiday but then again I'm a Capitalist ;)

you earn around 800 dollers a week working in a call centre in autralia.

in the UK u get payed 7.00 an hour, you live in poverty making just enough to pay your bills, and choose whether you want to drive a car or have 1 holiday once a yr and a few nights out.


It should be said that the reason they get paid 800 dollars a week working in a call centre is because the cost of living over there is obscene and much higher than it is here.

:old:


Thats right, but food and fuel tends to be reasonable, and if you are careful with where your money goes you can easily save 6 grand in half a yr

800 dollars a week is a little over £400. Not much more than the minimum wage in the UK for an adult

I agree,through tax, succesivè governments are killing the pub as a british institution and community hub. It's a disgrace in my view and nobody in power is pushing for tax breaks on pub bought beer. All a bit suss

We should do something similar (in my opinion).


What a crook of shite, more left wing control freak nonsense. It's peoples choice whether they smoke or not, no one forces them to smoke. I find it incredible that a so called government can be so stupid to think changing the presentation of the packets will stop people smoking. Whoever thought of this should be sacked on the spot, they're obviouslt mentally retarded and shouldn't be allowed off the ward without adult supervision....


I suggest you check your facts before accusing “left wing control freaks” !! Australia is governed by the centre right Liberal party !!!!!!!!!

But hey ho, let’s not let the facts get in the way of blaming the left wing for any decisions you don’t like !!!!

I’m guessing the current mess in this country is down to Gordon Brown in your opinion !!!!!!!

It might have been 40 years ago but now $800 is nearer to £800 than any other amount.

It's still their choice to smoke or not, if they really want to then they can just ask for them. The pictures only show the reality of smoking and there is no reason it shouldn't be on there. And nobody really cares about smokers because it is their choice, but they are trying to prevent people suffering from secondary smoke, like children.


No point replying, he's a blithering buffoon with an agenda against Labour. He's a typical, ignorant Tory and doesn't realise that this could save peoples live because he's been blinded by his own ignorance and is still mind set in the Thatcher era.


You’re the same guy, just waving a different flag.

Smokers should provide their own health insurance, specifically for that addiction.
On a side note, Labour under Blair, are responsible for starting this debt crisis. Thank God the World Bank has finally said no to Britain, albeit 30 years too late. Blair’s legacy is appalling, and jail is where he should be. The Conservative Party are only nearly as bad.

Apologies not needed. Makes a refreshing change for someone on this forum to admit they may have made a mistake! :thumbup:

Maybe some will shout "does your boyfriend know your here"

What they should do is hold hands for the anthem and give a peck on the cheek to anyone that scores.
There is no place in football for Qatary type rules.

Maybe some will shout "does your boyfriend know your here" whenever the Qatary Royal family turn up to a game
