    watching sky news just now and the guy is interviewing the labour shadow foreign secretary David Lammy and is asking him in the event of a hung parliament would labour do a deal with the SNP to get into power.
    and Lammy is trying to avoid the question and the commentator keeps pushing him for an answer, but with the questions you get the feeling sky is making out as if the Labour Party is making deals with some sort of terrorist outfit
    it just shows you the distain the Westminster based media and Westminster MPs look upon Scotland and the Scottish electorate.
    strange that there was no problem with the tories doing deals with the DUP with a wee billion pound sweetener or bribing the Lib Dems with seats in the cabinet and a deputy prime minister post.
    but that's alright.
    so do a deal with the SNP ? NO, that's like doing a deal with the Taliban.

    In fairness to the Taliban they have more political prowess and gravitas

    filling in a self assessment form in the work.
    question.... can you improve your work commitment and help the company improve going forward ?
    me.... naw, I drive a truck, and according to the law I can only go as fast as the speed limit and can only carry the weight allowed which is laid down by the DVSA

    That was my actual answer. :84:

    just waiting for HR to get back to me.

    You know yourself that hot weather is there and when we have a week of it, I’d say it will be above 25c. Just wait for some * after a few days start saying it’s too hot lol. I may have to hit someone if they say that :67:.

    When you’re sitting in the car waiting for someone and not one single car goes past the whole time you are waiting. The second you go to pull out the space a * parade of cars seems to appear. Every * time… and to add to that red light jumpers and tailgaters the absolute *

    Commentators:

    False Nine. (We managed for years without one of those.)
    Give and Go. (We just played a One-Two.)
    He opened up his body. (We just leathered the ball.)
    His low centre of gravity. (He's a shortarse.)
    Clinical. (Most overused, pointless word in the commentators' handbook.)

    Post-match analysis that's longer than the highlights.

    Highlights that include all or most of the VAR deliberations. Just show the frigging goal and say VAR had a look, it was fine...

    When you’re rushing to be somewhere but need a shower, turn the hot water on and while waiting for it to heat up someone jumps in it before you.

    The way every system thinks they can just charge ridiculous amounts of money if you can’t stick to appointments or have to reschedule for whatever reason even if it wasn’t your fault. Even worse when it’s meant to be the health system in this country. Absolutely * abhorrent behaviour and we need to get out of this way of thinking that you get monetary penalties for * like this.

    Maybe if the * government’s didn’t run the health service into the ground and allow everyone to screw the system maybe we would have a working nhs.

    Hackney drivers who over charge you getting home on a friday/Saturday night. Does their services really merit at least £60-£70 per hour. Brand themselves as providing a valuable service to get you home safely but charge a fortune to do so and indirectly prevents younger more vulnerable people getting home safely. * BOUNDARY CHARGES

    Way of the world now sadly. Everyone is out to make a bag and not give two * about customers. You get the fair few that go out their way but everyone else is trying to milk every last penny out of people that can’t afford it.
