Paid Members Carbomb Posted January 18, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted January 18, 2011 On the topic of the world's economy check out the Keiser Report on Russia Today. Watch the Keiser Report on Russia Today, Freeview Channel 85 or Sky 512 08.00am Tuesday and Thursday and repeated at 12.00pm.  Every week, Max Keiser looks at all the scandal behind the financial news headlines. I am impressed by his truthful, emphatic and straightforward manner of speaking... I'm also impressed by the fact that RT allows so much economic truth to be spoken of on their programs/shows/reports, especially "Keiser Report"... Quite contrary to most if not all of the world's mainstream media.  Wow, you've actually posted somebody somewhat worth listening to. Max Keiser's pretty good, although you're not going to get much out of it if you're anywhere right of centre-left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dynamite Duane Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 (edited) @JNLister Was that in 6th form? Making it further education as opposed to something everyone learns about. I never learnt about the British Constitution in secondary school for my GCSE's, I don't recall it as an option to for the final 2 years at school. I did history as a GCSE and that was all post war history. Â Anyway I don't have all the answers as I say, I'm just sharing information about a movement, it's something to have a look at.

Loki Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 Why should I though, Duane? I mean, it's not like this is a two way street is it? Â Every time you post one of your videos, I spend valuable time looking at it, and 95% of the time conclude that it's rubbish, but you never acknowledge that people have actually done that, you just shrug off everyone's opinions and move on to the next conspiracy or assume nobody watched it. Â You seem completely willing to accept the opinion of fringe commentators and random bloggers, but never willing to either read conventional news media in any depth or listen to the arguments of people on here, even if they take the time to search out info or facts for you. Â I want to like you, I really do, but you act like such a giant cock when you post these videos that... honestly, it's hard to. Â Like others here, I did GCSE Politics, but regardless of that all you need to do is read a decent newspaper once a week (Times, Telegraph, Guardian, Independent, Observer, FT) and you'll learn about this shit for yourself.

Well it's the old adage, isn't it? A Conspiracy Theorist is someone who believes nothing they read in the media and everything they read on the internet. Â Then again, I can't be believed as my age this year added to the year I was born ends in 111. So I'm part of the binary matrix or something.

patiirc Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 So Alan Johnson leaves the Shadow Cabinet because of 'issues at home' Â Resigned before pushed?

Â I don't dislike him as much as I do Tony Blair and especially Keith Vaz. Vaz is a first rate twat.

David Posted January 20, 2011 Author Share Posted January 20, 2011 Question Time looks to be a decent watch tonight, with Simon Hughes, Caroline Spelman, Alastair Campbell, George Galloway and Clarke Carlisle on the panel.

Paid Members gmoney Posted January 20, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted January 20, 2011 Clarke Carlisle? Campbell must have got him on. True fact: Alistair Campbell told my mate in the away end during the Reading v Burnley game, that Eddie Howe was certain to be the next Burnley manager, when the odds were about 11-1. He didn't stick the bet on after much consideration, and it came to pass. He was gutted. Things to take from this? Campbell has connections in the Burnley board and if he offers you a good tip, fucking take it, even if you think he's a cunt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Intriguing Why do you think he is self-righteous and odious?  Because he always comes across as always being holier than thou, and a cretinous ratbag despite being a 'a calamity' and generally not having a scooby doo. Examples. going after Debbie Hirst over her fighting to get Avastin while Health Secretary, his 'slimey and very cuntish' appearences on Question Time, that he has been proven time and again to not have a fucking clue what he is going on about. How much are Employers National Insurance contribuionss? He was meant to be Shadow Chancellor and was miles out! Yet he went on as if he spoketh the truth His part in the Gitmo torture cover up and so on  Utter Cunt of the highest order professionally. Hope what ever has caused his resignation is solvable and not utter crap privatly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
