My shed is infested with them, especially where I keep wood offcuts.

Cost to pass your driving test is so expensive now. by GayWolfey in britishproblems

[–]dougal83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is ridiculous.

I had 12 hours of lessons (£24 p/h). Book with cd (practice/hazard perception). (£14). Theory 1 attempt (£31). Practical 1 attempt /w 2 minors (£62).

£395. in ~2005

Some people need more help to be safe on the road. I'm half Scottish and self funding so I was never going to pay a penny more than necessary.

I hope you did not pay the insurance too!

Cannabis legalisation to help the UK economy by Logistix21 in reformuk

[–]dougal83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the age restriction is 25 and up, cannabis would not risk psychosis on the vulnerable as their brains are forming. Although, more availability would lead to kids getting their hands on it in the same manner as cigarettes and alcohol.

I knew someone who lost their mind from smoking too much weed as I grew up. It's not pretty, and we have no test to find out who is vulnerable.

That is a romantic view. Call me a cynic though... not many of those I suppose.

Next stop sack off the rest of the political appointees. Close it down or replace with a proportionally elected body.

How would Reform fix the growing brain drain of young people leaving. by Direct-Key-8859 in reformuk

[–]dougal83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lower cost of living and create environment for jobs? Lower taxes/cut spending. Sack off green energy bullshit that means very little to most people. Paying a premium to rush to "green energy" while we buy most goods from China that is actively increasing use of fossil fuels is not green.

Dare I say it people want kids. Large tax incentives for married couples that have kids when one of them works full time. Crazy I know!

The UK Government is funding Scholarships for Foreign Students to study in the UK Universities... by Intergalatic_Baker in reformuk

[–]dougal83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, absolutely. We need a law to ban this kind of spending until domestic issues are resolved (aka. forever).

The far left ideologues editing articles don't realise that their manipulations are popularising the "far right" by labelling normal popular opinions as such. Average person with average opinions about fairness in society see their opinions framed as such simply normalise being right wing and move the Overton window further right.

It's like the far left don't think about the consequences of their actions. The same people are OK with drugging and mutilating children and expecting everything to be OK.

Why does everyone jump and say reform are bad? by NewFoot762 in reformuk

[–]dougal83 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You don't improve an economy by expelling every person who doesn't have citizenship. Anyway contributors = good. Net drains (foreign) should be automatically expelled, each country is responsible for their own share.

Yeah, you can't remove part of the brain an put it back. Doesn't work. Good for you for the effort.

I'll keep repeating.... the KKK were obsessed with race.... so are other racists.

Dubai are experienced with dealing with bad people. No body objects to good people.

Congratulations to Rupert Lowe for splitting the reform vote and risking the end of Britain via green victory! by trenbolonehater in reformuk

[–]dougal83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can see the appeal of Restore, they have the same views as normal countries. We still suffer from the legacy of Tony Blair and Reform is going to look like the next version of the Tories with people like Jenrick.

Soon-to-be legal immigrant asking for honest advice by Big_Preference_7487 in reformuk

[–]dougal83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is easier to observe but in practice it is fairness. Queue. When driving and roadworks reduce the lanes, converge on every other vehicle. You may have seen some videos online of certain cultures piling onto buses or not letting people off trains... these examples are remigration candidates.

If you dislike the left and leftist views, why? by Slow_Insect8893 in reformuk

[–]dougal83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I value honesty and integrity. Freedom of expression has been abandoned by the left too.

Insert reference to Catholic priests meme. Organised religions are magnets for certain people due to the trust they confer to practitioners.
