Fuck sake Outted

Stop right there Jute, I'm not having you or anyone else on here slating the metropolis of Wigan Back in the day at the start of the 80's we had four trips (I think,but the memory is a tad hazy) down to Wigan for nights out at the Wigan Casino. Folk literally came from all over the UK to be there. By far and away the best club I ever attended, and have some fantastic memories of nights out and women I met in the Wigan Casino Here's a classic Northern Soul track for you youngsters

Don’t know about cursed but if we didn’t have bad luck we would have no luck at all at the moment.

Said this after the first game at Motherwell. No even close to the level required. When McKenzie's fit, he's got to push him out.

I'm advocating doing something more than standing up in your respective parliaments and saying ' i condemn this' or worse 'we are leading the way in condeming this' Hindsight is the word politicians like to throw about but foresight is a skill that needs to be brought in. Seems the priks who hold all the money and power in the UK have plenty of foresight when it comes to disaster capitalism and hedge funds but not one of them sat down one day and thought ' hang on a minute, we as a nation are awfully reliant on two or three nations on the world for our way of life (gas form russia, Oil from the middle east, manufacturing from china etc), doesnt this leave is in a pretty precarious position , particularly given how these countries operate? Perhaps ending reliance on fossil fuels isnt just a great move for the environment but also a smart move in terms of protecting our nations, Perhaps shutting down all our industries and/or allowing our smallish companies to be aggressively bought out by large foreign conglomorets isnt a thing to be celebrated. Lets change our ways right now. If everyone stopped using gas, Russia is in big trouble If everyone stopped using oil, Saudi, UAE, Qatar, Iran etc are in big trouble If everyone western company started making their products in their own countries, China is in big trouble I suspect the western governments will sit back and continue to talk about sanctions but essentially let Putin take the entire Ukraine. Putin knows fine well the Brits wont do anything with the tories in power, He appears to have the germans over a barrel with their reliance on russian gas The french wont to anything without the germans and brits backing them up The Americans don't want anything to do with the situation for fear of pissing off China who appear to be backing Putin. And selfisly while the Ukranian people suffer, the tories will be loving the distraction. As with the pandemic, they will see it as 'an opportunity.
