She's bleeding raving ! what is it with these luvvies - so what if her dad was a posh Ghurka - my dad used to drive an ice cream van selling UK ices in Turkey, but they ain't letting him stay here......it's a bleeding liberty.


I thought it was a simple point the minister made " it opens up a possible legal loophole , precedant, of retrospecive access to the uk for certain groups, this could put a huge burden on UK public services and I need to make sure I get this bit right"


Get back into the TV studio love and make some more ABFAB, we loved it. And don't come down Barry Road brandishing that big ole knife.....loony tunes or what !


http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/politics/defence/5292166/Joanna-Lumley-turns-screw-on-Gordon-Brown-over-Gurkhas.html

hey what a surprise the good ol BBC put's Lumley - Old Maid of the BeeB - on the headline leader above the trivia that is the unprecedented 50 BILLION POUND boost to the uk economy.....not even a thing about Graham norton's new contract, what is going on with this mob they must be slipping !!!!!!!!

Joanna Lumley is an intelligent and principled woman. Her articles in The Times some years back and other writings since prove she is far more than an easily led "luvvie".


Her father was a Major in a WWII Gurkha Regiment - his life was saved by a Gurkha soldier - posh or not that's a pretty good reason for supporting that particular regiment.


The campaign on behalf of the Gurkha's has been well managed and led intelligently.


To see J Lumley, yesterday, dictating policy on live TV to a glumly nodding Phil Woolas was to see a quick witted, knowledgeable and well briefed campaign leader run rings around an inept political placeman.

Listening to the radio this morning, apparently should ought to be the next Prime Minister.


It's easier to be quick-witted, knowledgable and well briefed when you only have one issue to consider. Lum had a spot of luck yesterday and played it well, but let's not start wetting our pants over it.

a lot of people have had their lives saved by a lot of people.


i sure if lum nuts came over peckham way and pulled out that big ole knife she likes to wave around someone would have to save her life pretty dam quick,


A it's no wonder someone had to save his life, he was probably riding around the jungle on a pennyfarthing in +fours and blowing a bugle !

My father was a Gurkha officer and three of them carried him out of the Borneo jungle after he had been wounded, it took almost a week.


Subsequently, over a period of 3 years he had his right arm amputated almost to the shoulder, but otherwise he would have surely died.


I served 23 years in the army and had reason to be thankful for their presence a couple of times, although I served in a different infantry regiment.


British soldiers fight for money too, it is called a salary.


"As I write these words my thoughts return to you who were my comrades, the stubborn and indomitable peasants of Nepal. Once more I hear the laughter with which you greeted every hardship. Once more I see you in your bivouacs or about your camp fires, on forced march or in the trenches, now shivering with wet and cold, now scorched by a pitiless and burning sun. Uncomplaining and endure hunger and thirst and wounds, and at the last your unwavering lines dissappear into smoke and wrath of battle. Bravest of the brave, most generous of generous, never had a country more faithful friends than you".

- Sir Ralph Turner



I am an ardent patriot (as opposed to Jingoist) and I feel ashamed to be British at this moment in time.


Could our ZaNu Labour Party misread the public mood anymore incorrectly.


I have never seen a Party try so hard to become unelectable in the 32 years I have been able to vote.


These people as a race have pledged their loyalty to Great Britain and they hold our traditions in higher regard than many of those that do already reside under the shelter of our free democratic system.

    • The private sector is not going to build a significant amount of social housing. Everyone is very keen for *everyone else* to subsidise construction of social housing. I take it none of the objectors to this scheme was suggesting putting up council tax so Southwark could build more social housing...? Social housing isn't going to appear in serious numbers if the state doesn't borrow money and build it.
    • They must be really desperate to collab with Tesla. Honestly, it's not even the worst thing they've done. I've noticed these sex events happening in the last few months at a place that's supposed to be a restaurant and venue. I was planning my wedding there and was appalled by the setup for those events. When I discovered what was going on, I was disgusted by how they were using the same rooms as 'playrooms' where families are supposed to eat. The hygiene and safety concerns are just unacceptable. We really need to come together as a community to put a stop to this! They're destroying a sacred, Grade II listed building, and it's just not right. The owners need to be held accountable for their actions. It's time for us to stand up and protect our heritage and ensure that these spaces are used appropriately, especially when they should be serving families and the community.   sex events vid.mp4 sex events videe.mp4 Literally promoting it on their Instagram! Only just taken down after scrutiny.     
    • yes, which properly explains why they responded to me on this occassion, as i included the CQC in my response. I have spoken to the Health Ombudsman, and they feel the regulator is more suited to the issues I have raise for more than a year now. welcome aboard. its great to have you on the thread. so sorry you are also experiencing issues. has this been addressed as yet?
    • Tbh most Tesla owners are people who are concerned about the environment and have purchased accordingly- but mr nut job has soured their purchasing- so I actually sympathise with them being associated with such an awful man. But to actively promote the company given the knowledge we now know about him makes utterly unacceptable.
