I’ve had a bash after the tgc v biam and done ok. Book of oz mainly respinning the feature in a few times. Had plenty of free spins as well from the wheel promotion thing.Bit risky i know but it’s been worth it. I get fed up on the cash games it’s like getting blood out of a stone and just don’t have time for long tournaments. Plus I’m on a horrible run on poker live and online. Fortunately the stakes have been low though.

Yeah Bud.. Don’t play cash games on Pokerstars unless it’s PLO, as its all pro’s with Huds etc who play. On all stakes.

@Malkychamp PartyPoker is the upcoming best platform out there, just below stars atm and is improving as more traffic has been going there for the Poker, there very safe & I would trust them. Alough I also suggest not playing Cash Game Poker their too.

Is it because of immigration and more people entering the uk than leaving? As a self employed worker my income doesn’t even increase been at work for longer.

It’s cus of immigration and socialism. You may not believe it, but they’re pushing socialism. All western countries are, except America (currently).

They increase the population through immigration. Then they subtly force socialism, but they hide it from the people. Most people don’t see it until it’s there. Here’s a story from a friend:
He went to report on what’s going on in a country. This was a couple of years ago. He decided he was gonna get a local phone and phone number, cus he was gonna spend some time there. So he went to the shop.
What happened there was he had to talk to 8 people, fill out and sign 3 forms, and it all amounted to 2 hours. To buy a phone. Which takes 5-10 minutes with 1 guy helping you.
The country he visited was venezuela. They had 8 people do the job of 1 person, with tons of extra useless bullshit pushed into it to make people have to do something for their money.

See, socialism fails for a number of reasons. But the key part of noticing socialism is when you notice how long it takes to do simple shit. That’s a clear sign you’re heading towards socialism.

Your politicians don’t work for you. They think they’re better than you. They abuse their power to get themselves into more power. And as they make more and more laws, you’re left with less and less to work with when you finally understand it’s time for an uprising, meaning you’re helpless.
Look at history. It never lies. And I AM NEVER WRONG! LISTEN TO ME FFS!

“We must rapidly begin the shift from a “thing-oriented” society to a “person-oriented” society. When machines and computers, profit motives and property rights are considered more important than people, the giant triplets of racism, materialism, and militarism are incapable of being conquered.”

 

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., 1967

It’s a very well established theory. The “three triplets”, and other such monsters, are the symptoms. The disease is hierarchy… a hierarchy which enforces valuing “profit motives and property rights” over all.

 

An activist who is, say, “race reductive”, might say “I’m just going to struggle against racism, working folk (in general), woman folk (in general) ain’t my fight”. An activist who is, say, “class reductive”, might say “I’m just going to struggle against the employing class, black folk (in general), woman folk (in general) ain’t my fight”. An activist who is, say, “patriarchy reductive”, might say “I’m just going to struggle against the patriarchy structures, black folk (in general), and working folk (in general) ain’t my fight”.

 

All three of these activists are confusing “their” pet symptom for the disease. None of these strategies can ever succeed in isolation, as the disease remains, and will always re-emerge. The above situation is an obvious recipe for being the victim of a “divide and rule” counter-strategy.

 

Also, consider this: I fully realize the above “reductive” strategies are not what the “rightist” elements of the MSM mean when they desirably use the term “identity politics”. But… isn’t this really something that kinda smells the same to you?

To remain at the top of a violent hierarchy, a small minority must work at fostering divisions in the majority below them. Divide and conquer continue extracting profit. If white working folk are being paid more $$$ for the same work as black folk… this sets up a dynamic where white working folk can (mistakenly) fear their wages will go down if black working folk gain equality, and black working folk can (not always mistakenly) blame white working folk for supporting the status quo.

 

Likewise, if male working folk are being paid more $$$ for the same work as woman folk… this sets up a dynamic where male working folk can (mistakenly) fear their wages will go down if woman working folk gain equality, and woman working folk can (not always mistakenly) blame male working folk for supporting the status quo. Rinse and repeat for religions, language, regionalism, etc/etc/etc.

 

What should be noted here, and again highlighting the dysfunction and toxic nature inherent in ‘class reductivism’/etc, is this: it’s the exact same small minority at the top of the same hierarchy. Key takeaway: In a society where different kinds of “privilege” are entrenched, none can be confronted in isolation of the others.

 

So, maybe in parts of China, both “Han privilege” and “male privilege” are entrenched. If that was the case, to deal with either kinda “privilege”, the entire nexus of “Han Patriarchy” would need to be confronted. In the context of this hypothetical society, confronting “male privilege”, while refusing to even acknowledge the nexus with, or likewise confront, “Han privilege”… would be a recipe for failure.

 

Notice: once again, the hypothetical term “Han Patriarchy”: (a) does not imply that every -or- even most, peeps of Han ancestry are better off under this hierarchy, (b) does not imply that every -or- even most, males are better off under this hierarchy, (c) does not imply that all -or- any particular, peep of Han ancestry are to “blame” for this hierarchy, (d) does not imply that all -or- any particular, males are to “blame” for this hierarchy. It also doesn’t claim that (e) that members of the minority at the top of the hierarchy are all peeps of Han ancestry, or (f) deny that members of the minority at the top of the hierarchy are often going to be a near 50-50 split between males and females.

So, to wrap up & back to the context of the US… both “white privilege” and “male privilege” are entrenched. Neither can be successfully confronted in isolation of the other (or in isolation of several other issues).

So… back to the same kinda question I posed earlier…

 

Do you understand why this entire nexus needs to be identified to be successfully confronted?

 

-or-

 

Is it simply a matter that you think that certain ways this nexus is being identified are sub-optimal messaging. If so, can you suggest a better messaging strategy?

I’m sure it’s between 4%/8% Which is minimal….

Gotta say I mostly agree here, although I don’t care what the work shy get, we could all do with less working our ass off hours There again I do see life or dream that we could be a utopia

But I think a 30 hour work week would be cool and better for society as a whole, and would encourage a lot back into full time employment.

I just believe families are important

Families are probably the most important issue. I’m in my 40’s and grew up with both of my parents who had their ups and downs but provided a decent upbringing where I learned a work ethic from my early teenage years. My Mother was a nurse and my Dad was a Baker. They worked long hours at times to save for holidays and other things and when they were in an affordable position to do so they had another child. Not wanting to rely on Benefits which had a stigma in those days was the reason they waited. Nowadays the parents a getting younger…too young in most cases and they are having kid after kid because they don’t have to provide for them. Most families today seem to consist of multiple children by different fathers which is a huge part of the problem. Too many teenagers having children when they are not mature enough to cope with their own lives…when did the law change where kids under 16 were able to just have kids without any consequences. Not to mention the fact that some of the Fathers are in their 20’s….surely an offence in itself. Kids are being born into families that are career benefit claimants and they learn the system as they grow up. Me and my wife have been together 25 years and I doubt that any of the other parents collecting their children could say they had been with their current partner for 5 years. Kids decide now that if they don’t feel like going to school then they don’t have to…and nothing gets done. If I had tried to pull that stunt I would have been in serious shit. I probably sound like an old git but family life is nothing like it was when I was a kid…learning to respect people and that if you want the good things in life you have to earn them. Sadly this has been replaced by the I want that so I will take it attitude! Very troubling.

2.Why is the population growing?
The growth in population size is partly because the population is ageing. The percentage of the population that is 65 years or older is growing. It increased between 1975 and 2015, from 14.1% of the population to 17.8%. It is projected to continue to grow to nearly a quarter of the population by 2045 (Table 1). This is an important consideration for the provision of health and social care services and pensions.

Population growth coupled with less infrastructure..

http://www.worldometers.info/world-population/uk-population/

And just more people driving in general like more women being able to afford their own vehicles ??✌️ And it didn’t help that our railways & Roads have not been maintained.

Maybe when we bring all our immigrants home it will stop the noise from the NF’s off the world or is it the case that we don’t send immigration to the US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand to name a few and they just emigrated.

Maybe the Torys can win over hearts with the new bus slogan of “Don’t be an Immigrant, when you can emigrate”

I dunno, maybe if we stopped going on holiday to these exotic places and shithole country’s they would stop getting Ideas, just a thought though.

It still gives me a chuckle thou, that the ex-pats voted for Brexit.. ?Talk about shooting yourself in the foot ?

And the Costa Del Crime crew will be back before they can say Bo. ?

Strange times indeed.

They’re really disingenuous. For Wednesday’s indicative votes they whipped for a confirmatory referendum on any deal, and then clarified this was only on a ‘damaging Tory Brexit’ and wouldn’t apply if they somehow won an election. But they basically support May’s deal and if you add a customs union it’s Labour’s Brexit!! So their plan is to force May to pass Labour’s Brexit which Labour will oppose if that causes a general election and Labour win they’ll … pass the same deal? (It’s extremely unlikely Labour will win a majority any time soon – they’d need SNP + others votes who would all make a referendum a sine qua non).

 

As for what their plan is – imo it’s usually a mistake to ascribe too much thinking to Magic Grandpa/his Stalinist advisors. But since May is trying to fit ten pegs in nine holes it might be politically savvy to take a step back and let her fail. I think they should try to find a compromise but it’s not like she reached out to them in 2017. And hoping to force a general election which they could win – as I said I think they’ve acted disingenuously – that’s standard politics tbh.

But sure its all Labour’s fault..I won’t be replying to your posts anymore because your an Idiot youtube conspiracy fanatic.

You know all this brexit stuff, I’ve changed my mind about what I want. It all seems so obvious now.

Im now hoping for a General Election, and that Jeremy Corbyn gets in, and sorts out a solid and bonding customs union and single market with the EU, and bring peace and harmony back to the UK.

Or better still, revokes A50 and takes us in to Schengen and the Euro, and we can finally be part of the great EU project properly.
