I'm all for leaving the ECHR, but there's not a chance of getting that through parliament, with these goons in charge of the country.

Foreign courts do not act in the interests of our country.

Have the pro Brexit government on the issue of needing food from the EU https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/united-kingdom-food-security-report-2021/united-kingdom-food-security-report-2021-theme-2-uk-food-supply-sources

'In 2020, the UK imported 46% of the food it consumed. Having a diverse range of international sources makes food supply more resilient, as if the production or output of one source is disrupted, other sources can meet demand. No one country provided more than 11% of those imports, a picture which has been stable for some time. By value, £48 billion of food, feed, and drink (FFD) was imported and £21.4 billion was exported.

Overall, the UK's food supply is concentrated on the UK and Europe, with over 80% of supply coming from these main sources. The remainder is mostly spread between Africa, Asia, North America, and South America. This picture has changed little in the last 10 years. EU countries continue to be the main source for FFD imports and are therefore essential to the UK's food security. 39% of FFD imports by value were despatched from 4 EU countries (the Netherlands, Republic of Ireland, Germany, and France) in 2020.'


We can import fresh food from other (further away) sources but air freight of such makes it more expensive and we only have a finite capacity for importing food by plane.  Much lower than all those trucks that roll through Dover and the Channel Tunnel.

Quote from: papasmurf on October 05, 2024, 09:14:42 AMWhat a ridiculous statement. Far more died from Covid who were unvaccinated.

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FDGSWswXMAAhUvk?format=png&name=small
That graphic cover less than 1000 deaths, but there were 66.000 deaths attributed to Covid during that period in the UK according to this:

So the data could have been cherry picked.

Quote from: Scott777 on October 05, 2024, 11:56:36 AMThat's false, I never said it was given as an experiment, I said it was an experimental substance, and you still have not provided a single bit of evidence to show otherwise.

It's also false that I'm an anti-vaxer, as I have never criticised any vaccines beyond the Covid jabs.

Are there any more false claims you'd like to make, such as aliens have landed and want us all to chop off our legs to protect us from too much freedom?
When we're discussing Covid vaccines then your posts on the matter do make you an anti vaxxer

And maybe you forget you posted this

Quote from: Scott777 on September 27, 2024, 04:22:28 PMI'm not sure what the required IQ is to understand that there are different vaccines, but I thought it would be fairly low.  Some are junk, some not so much.  However, the NHS did lie, as did vaccinators which the NHS provided, and there are recordings of them lying, saying the Covid junk was not experimental, when it was.  . . .

Quote from: Nick on October 05, 2024, 11:10:54 AMI need to go to Tesco today, I will take some snaps of the non-EU priced food on the shelves... All reasonably priced and fresh. Most of the seafood on the shelves is from Costa Rica and Vietnam, on the shelves just as fresh as U.K. caught fish.

Nick, there is no cheap food and has not been for years. As for imported fish from Costa Rica and Viet Nam it will be days old, if not more. The fresh fish I but from the village fishmonger caught by a local day boat will caught no more than 24 hours ago or even been caught in the morning.

Quote from: Scott777 on October 05, 2024, 11:46:22 AMBeing unvaccinated did not kill them, so you are comparing apples and pears by comparing deaths from the jab with deaths in absence of the jab. It's just not a meaningful comparison.

Being unvaccinated do kill them which is why posted that link.

Quote from: T00ts on October 04, 2024, 08:50:11 PMI read today that there is now supposed to be more non believers than believers in God in the UK. Belief in a deity is apparently considered now outdated and not relevant to modern life. I'm not sure how they came to that conclusion, certainly no-one has asked me.

How sad that makes me. The problem is that everything is Spiritual and if we don't recognise that then we have a tough time coming to us. Throughout history and back through the scriptures every time God and our Saviour are denied by the majority, every time mankind assumes all responsibility for life and forgets God's hand in our creation they get knocked on the head. It's frightening to think what may lay ahead the only thing that can bring peace in our hearts- if not in the world - is the knowledge of why we are here and where we are going. My prayer is that more and more people begin to truly question with their hearts.
As believers, we should just point people to the Word of God and let them know the truth.
Then, the choice is theirs. The Bible is a fount of truth.
Of course, the lunatics deny there is a God. The Bible says they would.

The fact is that in over 2000 years not one single piece of evidence to support a God has come to light.
