I see it was to help stop another destructive war in Europe ?
Hmmm.
So what happened when the EU funded the Ukrainian war then ?
5 Billion Euros given to party not elected in Ukraine .. which then caused a civil war .. with the only Russian naval base in the Mediterranian .. Russia being the second most powerful Nuclear Super Power.
I applaud your moronic attitude .. how about getting a reality check. I don't an EU funded war with Russua.
Never mind the hypocrasy of Germany giving Russia money whilst getting military support and financial support from the USA and the rest of Europe .. against Russia.
What would you call a mutliple layer of Morons ? Schizo morons ?
50+ people up voted how disasterous a Remainer Prime Minister and Remainer Civil Servant have made a complete and utter farce of UK Democracy.
You must be a complete bunch of morons .. I'm surprised you've got the brain power and the gall to type this rubbish.
I don't know why THIS rag has a bunch of Left wing morons on it .. perhaps you're just young, who knows.
God knows how you can justify lying supporting Teresa May the traitor.
The EU is ALL about Germany and France .. that's why over the past 40 years you've seen manufacturing leave the UK in the MILLIONS of jobs. For 40 years we've seen our coastal towns destroyed by the EU with the help of HMG.
There will be repercussions .. the time for giving Remainers their fair share has GONE.
David Davis was undermined COMPLETELY by Traitor Mrs May .. she even took most of his neogitiators off him and gave them to Olley Robinson. David Davis had a free trade plan.
Just look a the cr@ppy mess created by Mrs May .. a REMAINER.
A dirty little filthy disgusting traitor REMAINER.
If you love the EU so much bugger off and live there .. I have for over 10 years. At least I know what Europeans think of the UK.
Currently my W7 is not limited to any hardware as I have a retail copy.
However when I do upgrade my W10 copy will be limited to CPU/Motherboard combo.
Therefore before I can even consider upgrading to W10 I have to find the money to upgrade my hardware otherwise I have to fork out for another copy of W10 - or just "waste" this "free" W10 install on old hardware.
For anyone who has a machine coming towards the end of it's life cycle there is no real material benefit in getting a "free" W10 as you'll have to pay whenever you upgrade your machine.
"Well, until somebody comes up with an explanation as to why the earth is 18 degrees C warmer than the moon ... if it's not for the global warming caused by CO2 in the atmosphere."
The moon doesn't receive the same irradiation which can be quite clearly seen every day by the lunar cycle - obviously your ancestors must have never been farmers, sailors or priests.
Never mind the fact there is no ocean, atmosphere, water cycle, life and different tectonic activity....

I think this covers the description of the deniers"
Really ? Well given the FACT that EVERY SINGLE climate model has been proven WRONG - not by a small margin either - the energies required to sustain these models is many factors over the total power output of the world power stations combined.
When quoting "Denier" look the in the mirror and recognise your own failings.
"What are deniers waiting for? Bangladesh under water...? Because we're headed there."
Just what are you going on about ?
The Earth has lost and reformed Ice caps many, many times since it was formed - there will someday be ice sheets over most of Europe and North America will get a massive volcanic eruption in Yellow Stone park.
The seas will rise a bit - so what ? welcome to life on Earth.
You will NEVER get the state broadcaster away from HMG - you would have to be a complete idiot to even begin to think any government would stop the massive propaganda opportunity paid for at YOUR expense.
It comes across that may of you posting on here neither understand the TV licensing law nor understand WHY people like me don't watch TV - I don't watch ANY TV other than when I have the misfortune to watch it at my old folks - I'm 47.
It also comes across that you neither want to understand and seek to punish people who don't want to watch the TV garbage.
You need a TV license to watch any live broadcast - which means you DO NOT need a TV license to watch recorded or catch up TV. God knows why anyone would want to watch this rubbish I don't know but hey if you want to fair enough - I don't even know where these players are and I'm not interested either.
Note the difference between a mass audience of a broadcast and a single audience with a recording.
I don't have a TV license.
I realised one day that although I had a TV license & Virgin Cable TV I never watched TV at all or if I did I just flicked over the channels and found nothing was on.
Must be almost 10 years ago now.
Since that time I watch a lot of content from YouTube - educational, games, montages, music
Niche tailored sites - Anime, Films, Engineering, Welding, Lathing etc
Play video games, watch tournaments, MMOs etc.
Browse the net.
Recently been watching a lot of Astronomy & Maths - specific video content from lecture halls in Nottingham, MIT, NASA etc.
On any given day I can watch what I'm interested in not be fed whatever junk some over paid liberal elite down London thinks I should be see or listen to.
It's surprising how biased and staged TV seems when I do see it at the old folks - especially the news.
However I get threatened with court action from the BBC regularly and have even had a man come to the door expecting to see my "equipment" - ultimately with powers to search the premises when they get a court order.
The world has moved on from the 70s - the fact the same oldies are being highlighted on TV for awards, film awards, music awards and the repeats should already have told you something - the new producers, director, script writers are working elsewhere doing new content and there is a very large amount of it.
I don't think I've scratched the surface TBH and I'm sure there are many things I don't even realise exists.
Just been looking at getting a new machine for my parents and concluded you cant beat AMD on price performance IMHO.
AMD APU 7800K with HSA looks potentially ground breaking.
48 Watts TDP with built in graphics enough to reasonably power most games/media with the potential to use Graphics CPU cycles to compute standard OS tasks.
That means I can use a mini or micro ATX case, near silent cooling, VERY low power usage and still get good performance. Small form factor lending itself to a media centre, small server or light desktop.
Giving me an upgradable PC I can keep up to date for circa £400 - not hardwired into a fixed OS unlike some laptops & tablets but far far far superior in every way.
So what if I5 & I7 are faster ? For most tasks including most games you just don't need nor can use the CPU cycles - far better to spend the money on Graphics Cards, Memory, SSDs, Displays and networking.
Regardless I5 & I7 require more expensive memory, motherboards, cooling, power supplies and hence a larger case - I would have thought with the domination of ARM the writing is on the wall for high power processors.
I have never had the misfortune to read a bunch of utter tripe in all my life.
As well as being a farmer's son I work in IT as a contractor.
A few key points about how idiotic most of the posts on here are.
1) Food production is ALL about chemicals.
2) All plants require 3 key chemicals usually in large quantities - Nitrogen, Phosphate & Potash.
3) Plants require other key chemicals for example Sulphur - which because we no longer burn Sulphur baring coal we have to apply to fields.
4) When a crop is grown ALL those chemicals in the food leaving the farm gate have to be replaced otherwise each successive crop yields not only less but of lower quality - ie not fit for human consumption.
5) Wheat fit to make bread requires HIGHER levels of nitrogen.
6) There IS NO MAGIC FALLOWING of fields to MAGICALLY create Phosphate or Potash. Fallowing MIGHT create some Nitrogen but it also MIGHT not.
7) Trees were burnt to create Potash in times past.
8) Phosphate comes from poo - this is why farms apply poo to fields.
9) Minerals in fields CAN provide Phosphate IF the mineral is within the soil/rock and sufficient years have passed for the weather to break down the mineral.
10) Fungicides are applied to crops - one of the main reasons is to ensure fungi residues don't send people and animals mad.
11) Herbicides are applied to kill weeds because otherwise this promotes fungi and produces a lower quality crop not fit for humans to eat.
12) Insecticides are applied to kill insects because they carry fungi diseases and produces a lower quality crop not fit for humans to eat.
By far the most STUPID point none of you realise is the MAIN polluter of rivers and seas is all of you personally.
Most of the Nitrogen, Phosphate and Potash gets eaten and excreted by all of you, flushed down the pan and into the sewer - in fact there is so much still in poo if it was treated it could be eaten again, probably several times - and yes it does actually happen in farming for example in Asia duck houses are put over ponds to allow the fish to directly consume the chemicals.
So you all are the main polluters - but worse still those of you who are vegans need crops grown with higher fertiliser content otherwise the crops would not be fit for humans - this unfit for human food goes to animals who are able to convert poor food into meat/milk/eggs fit for humans to eat.
Worse still is the fact that nitrogen fixing crops such as beans and peas are not grown because all of you refuse to eat them in large quantities - so it is you all again which are causing pollution and all of you do it by choice but blame everyone but yourselves.
Personally on our farm we buy in processed human poo in the form of "biosolids" - so we recycle your pollution.
Not only that we also buy brown bin green waste in the form of "compost" which is again farmers recycling your pollution.
Note the words BUY - I BUY your pollution and deal with it - all you do is cause it.
Now all of you are so good at recycling that my compost comes full of metal, plastic, dog toys and any old crap - still ultimately you are eating your own rubbish so tough luck.
Now lets turn to the crap about farmers, chemical companies & DEFRA creating ever increasing pollution - well obviously that is not the case because we recycle your sh@t literally. Further we are limited in what fertiliser we can apply based on the crop we are growing. So that is twice you've been knocked down.
But of course fertiliser that MIGHT find it's was into streams is not caught because the "Environmentalists" can't literally be bothered - it's easy to do by creating reed ponds and processing the reeds every so many years - not one single penny is spent on capturing anything. Mind you there isn't much to catch because in summer MOST drainage ditches are dry which means MOST farms cant cause ANY pollution.
Runoff from farm can only occur during winter in most farms.
As regards the looney position you have on subsidies I would dearly love to have no subsidy - then I wouldn't have to put up with idiots like you moaning like a pathetic little child with wet knickers. But because you the public refuse to pay a decent price for food - for example milk is being sold at below the cost of production - then farmers need extra money or they will go out of business - which means you go hungry which so far hasn't happened since world war 2.
Shame the same can't be said of any other industry.
The subsidies are not enough and dairy farmers are still going out of business - over half have in the last decade or two.
We have to subsidise the farm by having local businesses on the farm using our facilities or we would go bust.
That means a family, their home, way of life, business and job has gone - this has happened in the 10,000s
It's obvious that most of you care about how or where your food is grown - the UK has some of the highest quality food in the world - go drive to Germany through France and you will rarely see ANY hedgerows or wildlife.
Still don't let me interrupt your destruction of something you are completely and utterly clueless about.
Personally I hate having to provide food to idiots like you at the insignificant wages I get - I can make far more in IT but I do it for my father and because I like farming and the countryside - not to provide food to retarded ignorant idiotic backward idiots like you.
