Inochi 0 Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 (edited) Fucking hell, that's chilling. Butchered a bit, mind: "Heavy physical work, the care of home and children, petty quarrels with neighbors, films, football, beer and above all, gambling filled up the horizon of their minds. To keep them in control was not difficult.” Edited March 20, 2014 by Inochi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Dynamite 7169 Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 Nuclear Weapons. What if the Ruskies decided to shake things up and launch a nuclear attack. What would be the actual consequences? Would their missiles launch? Would they really reach here? How many do we think they would send our way? How long would they take to get here? What would the aftermath be like? Would society collapse instantly? I just wonder what the reality would be like compared to the Cold War propaganda / Hollywood movies we have grown up with. Obviously an attack would upset the apple cart, but the dark forces may see a massive land grab and return to a USSR worth the initial shit fest. Have we become to laid back to war? Just spotted this. A nuclear attack would 'upset the apple cart' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howmanheyman 33828 Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 Royal Mail cutting 1,600 jobs. They didn't hang around, like. This is why the workers weren't happy at privatisation even with a bribe of some free shares. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin Carr's Gloves 3964 Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 So they should have been kept on regardless of whether they were needed or not? No Royal Mail shouldn't have been sold. Was making a profit and employing people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howmanheyman 33828 Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 So they should have been kept on regardless of whether they were needed or not?The Tories mantra was Royal Mail needed outside private investment. Private investment has just cut costs instead. Quelle surprise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
