Nation of shirkers?

Look at this.
The latest occupational activity, in the main an activity staffed by students financing their next Maserati, several times a week, for 1-4 years.
And what do we get?
Umpteen carriers of the box ticking clip board jobsworth army (pointless bastard division), pointing their useless noses into something which just isn't a problem but nevertheless, can be controlled, regulated and ultimately banned by the scarcely believable scum in Brussels...
How did we ever get to the position where every man and his dog is simply so wet that instruments
of the state are deemed essential for our very survival?
We really are knackered.
(Perhaps if the bar staff stayed at home these cretins might be satified?)

I liked the chart about how loud things are...apparently a converstion is nearly half as loud as a plane taking off?
FYI it's a logarithmic scale, so if the plane taking of is twice as loud as the clubb then it's 32 times as loud as conversation
They obviously didn't base their calculations on a conversation with my girlfriend.

But planes taking off are quiet. I can't hear them at all. But the fact that I'm 20 miles from the nearest airport may have something do with it - however, they make no mention of that.
The concept of "as loud as a plane taking off" is typical nonsensical propaganda. How far from the plane? What kind of plane? Just give us decibels and we might understand better and give their suggestions some more respect.

TUC Deputy general secretary Frances O'Grady said simple steps, such as ear plugs, would go a long way to help.
"I'd like a lager please"
"what?"
"I'd like a lager please"
"WHAT?"
"I SAID I'D LIKE A LAGER PLEASE"
"WHAT?"
"I SAID I'D LIKE A LAGER....oh forget it"
Do they ever think these daft ideas out? Or do they plan on implementing sign language in clubs as well.

I think it was Clarkson who that for every one person actually working, there was somebody making sure he did it 'properly' - ie a civil servant or administrator.
Seems about right.
Only yesterday, we discovered that due to the whining detesticolisation of a local planning officer (aka local business sabotage agent), the road immediately in front of our main warehouse is to be double yellowed - on a f@cking business park - and why? Because several times a week, there are articulated viggens queued up to onload & collect.
Well I'm so dreadfully sorry...
And it's like, Hello? HELLO? Anyone home? This is an industrial estate, presumably for businesses to operate from (but evidently not be allowed to thrive on), employing close on 100 people, paying all that damn tax and business rates and you motherf@ckers STILL want to restrict this and prevent that and in the f@cking first place it's already cost us two and a half Macca F1s just to get the bastard security to even operate because your f@cking liberal horseshit policing and sentencing committment is so bolloxed up in the first place and...and...YYeeeeaaaaAAaaargh!!!
Someone shoot the lot of 'em, Goddam communist maggots!
This bloody country! What is it with everybody?

What do you expect? the guvmint plc is a business and a pretty ruthless one at that. It leads by example and, like the fishing industry, is getting so greedy it's going to, Horacelike, eat itself one day. All it will leave as testimony to its existence is a nation of greed inspired chavs that, ordinarily would have been destroyed according to the laws of Darwin.
Because of the amount of stupid legislation protecting these morons from damaging themselves (by switching off Trisha and getting a f**king job) we have become a nation of idle dimwitted spongers looking for an excuse to sue someone because we have yet to be told that it could be dangerous to have a picnic on the M5, the 2 remaining people working 84 hours a week will, of course, pay the court fees

Then again, my hearing's becoming progressively worse, to the point now where I get the occasional imbalance. Right now, my right ear makes everything sound roaring and rumbly, my left is ringing.
But I didn't go out last night!
I'd actually be willing to stand up and say there are certain speakers in certain clubs that are too loud, and shouldn't actually be on a packed dancefloor where people are pushed up against them.
I'm going to get my ears tested later this week, but I've got this horrible feeling I am, actually, going deaf.

So what do you propose? Genocide generally directed toward the Chavscum? Sounds like a good start to me, then maybe we can get this country back to being BRITISH again.
No chance! Sorry to pish on your chips but I don't think we will ever see a 'British Britain' again.
Considering nearly half the bloody population is now 'of foreign origin' all that made Great Britain both Great and British has long since departed
We are now the UK - The United Kingdom - a Drop-zone for all countries and a free meal ticket for the rest of the world. Its too late the damage is done. Call me negative or whatever but to me 'Great Britain' is a total farce whereby a hoard of johnny foreigners are being (allegedly) kept in check by terrible politics, bad financial management and the start of drakonian control through electronic surveilance. The idiots that profess to be the governments democracy and control have nor use neither and all we get is tax tax tax while violent crimes soar, burglary is on the up, and its war on the motorist.
I will put money on New Labour New Danger getting another term in power. What ever happened to hit men?? Can't someone just shoot the bastard and be done?
Will the last Englishman out please close the door
Woa - and breath ! Thats better

err, actually the combined number of ethnic minorities in the British Isles comes to something like 3%.
We don't have an immigration 'problem'. Germany has an immigration 'problem', so does France which is why some of them end up over here.
Problem with this country is that its heartbeat is the Daily Mail, and everything about this country seems so easily surprised and restricted in outlook. A few immigrants will make the front cover, never mind another 50,000 people who've just been made homeless by a war somewhere tucked away on page 6. The Daily Mail types want everything at a safe constant, so if they get some nice weather during the summer they'll blame global warming and cars, if they get too much rain in winter they'll blame it again, never mind the perfectly naturally-occurring natural disaster that just flattened the Caribbean, again tucked away on page 6.
We've got to stop seeing this country as the fallen angel on the 'best place in the world' charts, get a sense of proportion and realise that, with the exception of a maniac intent on complete control at Number 10, we're not doing too bad.
