    Loss of short term memory??

    ‘Mary

    You are over 60 and comfortably off.

    Do you think it’s reasonable that you should be exempted from paying prescription charges? If so, for what reason(s)? ‘

    @Falloch

    I think there will be strong feelings on both sides of the argument and I don’t see Robertson’s claims as being any more fanciful than much of what Salmond says.

    Nor indeed your claims that the CIA overthrew the government of New Zealand.

    Sorry, Mary. You are over 60. Therefore you are exempted from paying prescription charges (you gave the list of exemptions yourself – memory loss?). Hence my question was entirely reasonable.

    In Birmingham today there are plenty of NHS dentists straight off the production line of Birmingham University Dentistry Department. Perhaps I should be faithful to my alma mater particularly when I know someone training to be a dentist there but I think we should go back to the days when barbers pulled out your bad teeth. That is not to say we should ignore oral hygiene or cleaning our teeth. What is wrong with dentists is they start on children, practising to see what evil they can perform once their milk teeth have gone. I have very good evidence that leaving teeth alone is good for them.

    ‘The decision by the President Michael D Higgins’s wife to visit her old friend in a “private and personal” capacity has been hugely controversial because it could be interpreted as a PR coup for the Shannonwatch group, which has been campaigning to end foreign military use of Shannon Airport.’

    Margaretta D’Arcy. What a woman!

    Here she is the day after her release from prison. (1min 20 secs)

    Sofia, as you say, Margaretta D’Arcy, is a brilliant peace campaigner. Women are so much stronger than men. It was the women of Greenham Common that embarrassed our government warmongers. It was Lindis Percy who brought attention to Menwith Hill with her individual arrests and imprisonments. And you know, they are not bitter. They realise that what they are doing is for the public good. Anybody who can help get rid of unnecessary Yankie military bases anywhere in the world is doing the planet enormous good. Mahatma Gandhi lost a lot of protests before changing the way the collective mind of India thought. God bless people like Margaretta D’Arcy and Lindis Percy.

    Dentistry. Glad you asked about the evidence.

    I used to do work with four former asylum seekers who had their own cleaning business. They were from Somalia. All of them had perfect teeth. Somalia is an impoverished country where I suspect only the very rich have access to a dentist. Anyway, not one of them had a filling. All of their African friends likewise had perfect teeth. Dentists are responsible for nearly all dental problems and I think we would be better going back to the days when barbers pulled teeth – cheaper and quicker and you can get your hair-cut at the same time. Dentists are responsible for nearly all the problems with teeth in the world. And did I mention there is a production line at my university? Get rid of dentists and you get rid of dental problems – by and large.

    But Somalians and others are not my only evidence regarding leaving teeth alone. When I write leaving teeth alone that does not mean people should not pay attention to oral hygiene, that is regular brushing is necessary to combat all the overkill of sugar in our diets. Be sensible. But I’m thinking dogs. I have two and over the years have had quite a few. None of them has ever been to the dentist. When I have talked to other dog-owners about this they tell me the same. They keep their teeth all their lives.

    All that evidence and they still have the production line.

    H 9.14 today and 9.39pm last night

    There was a clear implication by you that I receive free prescriptions in yet more of your stupid remarks. You would probably like a list if there was one but there isn’t.

    I and my late husband paid NI contributions to the Exchequer over many years in the expectation that the NHS would provide care and treatment, free at the point of need.

    FYI matey.

    I am now out for the day and therefore do not propose to discuss the matter further however many rejoinders you care to post.

  • John Goss

    As regards Clare Daly I recall the first speech during Obabma’s visit and thought at the time how much the UK parliament needs parliamentarians like her, people who are not there because corporations have bought their souls, but people with guts, who call a spade a spade, who are not fearful of what their sponsors might say, because they are not bought. How much does the world need people like Clare Daly?

    BREAKING NEWS and far more important than Ukraine Syria ( whats that) and or our relatiobns with Europe.

    OSCAR PISTORIUS forgot that he had no soap to steal in his bathroom!

    you are a pisstaker Habbakuk and a coward for carrying on as you are.

    Mary 9 Apr, 2014 – 10:12 am

    Thank you for that, Mary.

    Another bit of Habbabkukian ridicule demolished!

    Fred take note.

  • nevermind

    Thanks for that excellent and real news on Margharetta’s release Sofia, maybe you could lenf it to your dad to read, he seems well hooked on tabloidal excretions these days.

  • fred

    “Fred take note.”

    What the fuck are you rambling on about now?

    FYI I rarely read anything he writes, I’ve far more sense.

    So please leave me out of your paranoid delusions.

    Play your silly games with the other silly people if you like but leave me out of it or I start flaming.

  • Sofia Kibo Noh

    Nevermind.

    Hapilly, Dad and I are no longer on speaking terms.

    This is due to my having become a Habbabreak* user.

    Oh, and I sacked him too!

    A year of being his daughter would wear anyone down, even Margaretta D’Arcy.

    It seems not everybody in Germany is convinced.

    “President Putin in his speech at the re-integration of the Crimea from the 18th March 2014 once spoke directly to the German people. This appeal earned positive response that corresponds to the real feelings of the Germans, as expressed these days in opinion polls. The one-sided anti-Russian statements of many of our mass media and politicians together with the escalating diplomatic manoeuvres in Berlin do not represent the German population and their increasing distance from the bellicose policies of the EU and NATO. Therefore, here is an open letter to President Putin, which is to be delivered on Thursday to the Russian Embassy in Berlin…”

    Is there anyone left in Germany who didn’t sign this?

  • John Goss

    Habbabkuk has gone. I thought it was a spoof program being introduced so close to April 1st. But Habbabreak really does work. I’m using it now. It’s got rid of that irritating itch in an unmentionable place, sometimes referred to as a pain in the Wenger, and life is so much better.

    “Life is getting better, life is getting merrier!” (J. Stalin, ca. 1932)

    Thanks so much afrend. Sofia thanks so much. Thanks too for letting us know that the German people were just as hoodwinked by their media as we were with ours. I have noticed and even mentioned that the BBC and MSM had started to be more responsible in its broadcasting, as with the Kiev thugs battering other parliamentarians yesterday. Perhaps real stories from the internet have worked. MSM cannot tell lies forever.

    When are we in the UK sending a letter to Putin. I can think of a lot of people who would just love to sign it.

  • Ba'al Zevul (Thin Red Line)

    I am wondering if Putin isn’t giving a message which the West cannot bring itself to acknowledge. Namely, that if we stir the shit in marginally-Russian spheres of influence (Syria), he will stir the shit in marginally-Euro (-American) spheres of influence (Ukraine). If so, what are needed are some clear and agreed lines of demarcation, since neither side, it is to be hoped, is prepared to escalate to a major, possibly nuclear, war.

    And though this might happen with Kerry, he’ll have trouble getting any agreement past the knuckle-draggers in Congress; our own Hague and still-vocal Blair show us what their chums the neocons are saying. Kerry’s served in the forces – he knows better.

    Nevermind – please allow me to juxtapose to your Einstein quote another, by Rudyard Kipling; there are two sides to this, as any other discussion –

    We aren’t no thin red ‘eroes, nor we aren’t no blackguards too,
    But single men in barricks, most remarkable like you;
    An’ if sometimes our conduck isn’t all your fancy paints,
    Why, single men in barricks don’t grow into plaster saints;
    While it’s Tommy this, an’ Tommy that, an’ “Tommy, fall be’ind”,
    But it’s “Please to walk in front, sir”, when there’s trouble in the wind,
    There’s trouble in the wind, my boys, there’s trouble in the wind,
    O it’s “Please to walk in front, sir”, when there’s trouble in the wind.

    Blair sounding off again on behalf of the Africa Governance Initiative (prop: A.Blair) –

    Tony Blair: Supporting Good Leaders Can Help Make this Africa’s Century
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X-urFwHF-fg

    The AGI has contracts not only with Rwanda’s distinctly dodgy Kagame (see above) but also with Guinea’s Teodora Obiang Nguema Mbusogu, or Obiang for short.

    Last elected for his fourth 7-year presidential term in 2009, with 97% of the vote, in a country with no newspapers, government owned or controlled media, etc, etc (see Wikipedia), Obiang is probably the nearest thing to Kim Jong-Un that Africa has to offer.

    Supporting good leaders, eh, Tone? Well, by your standards, it maybe makes sense…

    Wrong as usual, Mr Goss. You musn’t equate your not being able to deal with me in discussion with me “going”.

    Still very much here and read by all those visitors with a mind somewhat more open than yours.

    In fact, probably those same visitors who don’t bother to read your own two blogs 🙂

  • Ben-Scot NON-collaborator

    Ba’al; The misdirection is nearly complete. From a comment in the Telegraph;

    “The British Air Investigations Board lied about the Inmarsat signal analysis. The satellite handshake signals would show merely the satellite footprint in which the aircraft was flying which would be a very large area. They spoke of only one satellite being involved. The AIB said that a sophisticated Doppler shift analysis had been carried out to calculate the position of the aircraft. That would not have been possible as the RF signal is not recorded, only the demodulated data from the signal, ie the aircraft identity. The eight RF “pings” had come and gone. Even if the RF pings had been available, it would still not have been possible to calculate the aircraft position.

    Inmarsat refused to appear at a briefing. The AIB were not at the briefings either. So we have been fed lies. What are they covering up?”

  • Habbabkuk (La vita è bella) !

    “Some hope still of finding MH370, apparently. Pings detected again…”
    ______________

    Tisk, tisk, Ba’al Zevul. Surely you must know that the airplane was hijacked to Diego Garcia by the CIA and is still there while the passengers are being tortured into revealing their secrets?

    Conspiracy theorists 1, Ba’al Zevul 0.
