Not by labour of course, but if they alienate the idiots they risk stoking the fire. The idiots are a tiny minority, hopefully this is a watershed for them being stamped on. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renton 21589 Posted August 4 Share Posted August 4 Boro scum, smashing up normal people's cars and houses. I thought this place had benefitted from Houchen's pork barreling too? I think covering your face in public needs to be made an arrestible offence too. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just don't know how they can identify these scum bags to door knock them. Perhaps ask Amazon and eBay for their data on who's been buying masks and balaclavas the past few days.

That’s just off parliament road, used to be class butty shop there. Ran by Italian immigrants but none of them jobless smooth brains would know anything about the real boro. We had a massive docks, steel working and shipping industry which brought in goods and people from across the world, like my ancestors. It’s a real fucking shame to see a town that I know has decent people in it being dragged down by knuckle draggers. Honestly hit me harder than I thought this. 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, it’s rotten when your hometown is depicted in a bad light in the national media, especially when you’re away from it. I drove past Boro this morning at 5:00am and there was a pall of smoke in the air, and the acrid smell of burning petrol, strong enough to taste a day or so later, so at least it hasn’t taken long to get back to normal. Giddup! 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were talking about this the other day. He joined the Navy when he first left school to see some of the world and get a trade and planned to get a job in one of the plants when he finished. When he finished they were all shutting down and no fucking jobs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are other opportunities available, whether that be moving location to use his trade (presumably not a problem if he has been footloose in the navy) or using some saved brass to get some extra qualifications. Unfortunately no industry is permanent and nowadays you have to be somewhat flexible. I know a couple of lads from the navy who have trained their way to great jobs, better than me, the twats.

Oh he moved. He realised if he wanted to progress and use some of the skills her learned in the Navy he had to move. Thankfully for him the Navy gave him a skillset and taught him to look after himself. It was the fact he had to move away from his family again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nearly all my industry is based in London and the home counties. If I had been wiling to move at a young age I would have a different career now I'm sure. But I wasn't. Fortunately home working is removing a lot of these barriers now anyway (if you have a desk based job obviously). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
