DIDO.1 22,829 Posted February 10 Report Share Posted February 10 I'm not pro Putin at all. Just like hating labour and the political left doesn't make me pro conservative. But I guess some of us are finding ourselves drawn to the likes of Putin because at least we expect him to be a power mad monster. Where our own politicians we are supposed to be acting in our interests and clearly aren't. Indeed our own politicians are bending us over and shafting us without lube and laughing whilst they do it. Who would hurt you most if they betrayed you....you parents or Dodgy Dave down the pub? Stiff claimed Putin was perhaps doing it to effect food supply..... perhaps....but our own politicians are actively reducing our food security. Fck I couldn't blame Putin for doing it .....but our our politicians???!!!!! I guess that's why, at the minute I'd rather have a pint with Putin and dodgy Dave. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

All went well until one day after they had started to crack down, a lad who was travelling over with in another van was stopped at customs, he had hired the van and it was crammed full. he lost the lot and the van, Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They are the reason we ended up with Hong Kong. The exploits of the East India Company didn’t end in India. In one of its darkest chapters, the Company smuggled opium into China in exchange for the country’s most prized trade good: tea. China only traded tea for silver, but that was hard to come by in England, so the Company flouted China’s opium ban through a black market of Indian opium growers and smugglers. As tea flowed into London, the Company’s investors grew rich and millions of Chinese men wasted away in opium dens. When China cracked down on the opium trade, the British government sent warships, triggering the Opium War of 1840. The humiliating Chinese defeat handed the British control of Hong Kong, but the conflict shed further light on the East India Company’s dark dealings in the name of profit.
