They were enslaved by their own people, the Europeans paid for them and transported them, but they were already slaves. Africans started taking British and European slaves for about 300 years before the Europeans got involved in the African slave trade. We have already paid reparations by ending the slave trade that incurred the loss of a lot of British lives and a shit ton of British money that we have only just finishing paying back.

So these uneducated race-bating fuck wit MPs can go fuck themselves

My incredibly reliable source of interesting info. Tells me that Sadiq Khan purchased the cameras to expand the ULEZ zone in April 2022.
No wonder he's ignored all attempts to block the expansion!

I expect he's already had his brown envelope from the camera supplier

Parcelforce! What a bunch of useless arseholes!! I'm waiting on an order from a company in Cheshire. They shipped my stuff yesterday using Parcelforce. It seemed to be making good progress until I checked this morning where the tracking says they have now shipped it on to the wrong depot and they will 'try to get it to me as soon as possible'. They are absolutely bloody useless, them and the Post Office.

I have had orders from abroad that travel fast from overseas until they reach Parcelforce/Royal Mail, when it can take nearly twice the time to progress through the UK than it did to travel from Italy or US to UK... it's ridiculous, no wonder both businesses are struggling

 

[MartytheMartian]

'Normal Service' from Parcelforce for me is at least three or four days for a Parcelforce24 order and at least a week for a Parcelforce48 shipment. They consider it to have been delivered when they hand it over to Royal Mail in Glasgow for delivery as they don't actually deliver themselves to my area (they call Royal Mail their 'Delivery Partner') and, because of the way their system works it usually takes at least at day or two days for it to travel with Royal Mail from Glasgow to me. They imply that 24 and 48 are the times it will take for that service to arrive but, if you read their small print, it only says that they will 'try' to deliver within that timeframe and, in reality, they think they are doing fine as long as it reaches you within a month.

In the defence of Parcelforce, I ordered 2 pairs of brake shoes for our CG125 project on Wednesday morning and they arrived Thursday morning. Just saying.........

Khan is a dangerous influence on other cities and towns. Please will somebody take him out on the same day as Fishy Sunak?

I think our record for parcel farce 48 is three weeks. Yes, that's 3 weeks. 5 weeks for a my herpes delivery, I had got a refund, and had the replacement order delivered 2 weeks before herpes managed to deliver it.

It annoys the fuck out of me when you have a delivery due, and the courier says it's delivered, when all they did was hand it to another courier. Then it vanishes. Happened to me last week, an exhaust part (£140 worth) delivery by Tuffnells. Now, that thursday I had to go out, and about 40 miles away on the A9 I see the Tuffnells van, so think "oh, that'll be my exhaust parts...." Sat in Brora, and 'DING' goes my phone. Your parcel has been delivered. Yeah, to another courier. No further tracking available. It arrived Monday. At least it arrived.... The rest of the order ( the other £200 worth) placed on the same day, arrived yesterday. Now, that was DPD, it was due Tuesday, but the snow put paid to that, but they messaged to say it would be Thursday due to the weather, and they were good to their word.

The other thing that bugs me, both orders ( as neither supplier had all the parts) were "free UK delivery". Ha fucking ha ha. Not to me...ended up with £50 in courier charges on top. Bastards.

But when the Chinese, Russians or whoever else decide to nuke the UK. You'll miss out on all the radiation sickness etc.
It might add a further delay to your parcels though?

It's Scotland they need to knock out first, Lossie and Faslane the two that can hurt them the most, and Coningsby Lincoln, at least @MartytheMartian won't have to worry about snow

 

[MartytheMartian]

I won't have to worry about radiation sickness or mutants either. I'll be gone with the first flash in the sky and I will happily kiss this world goodbye if it ever happens.

MyHerpes are bad around here too @Big Sandy they deliver any parcels sent using them to a depot at Johnston owned by A&M couriers of Campbelltown who then collect them once a week and take them around to Campbelltown about a eighty miles or so away from me (Passing within ten miles of my village on their way there) and then sort them and bring them back. The minimum for a parcel with them to me is a week and often the parcels would be wrecked beyond all recognition. DPD are next day delivery every time, Amazon Prime get here next day all the time too. With ParcelForce and Royal Mail they sort them in Glasgow for onward shipping to Cowal but time it so that the shipment has to wait for the ferry next morning before it can reach Dunoon (after the Postmen have left for their rounds of course) which obviously adds at least a day on every time. The really annoying thing is that we aren't that remote it's just that Parcelforce won't use the diesel to deliver themselves and MyHerpes/Evri pay so little to their couriers that they have to save up the work to make it worth the diesel.

 

[Big Sandy]

Spot on @MartytheMartian . One of the herpes couriers used to put stamps on the smaller stuff and get rid of them that way!

 

[chas]

Hermes (Evri) have on two occasions gifted me free cases of beer due to their piss poor service. Bolloxed the delivery, I've complained and got refund from supplier then a week later the beer turns up. But yep, they're fuckawful.

Looking at an internet football results page and saw a headline about Linekar standing down from Match of the Day. The bloke must be totally detached from reality.

Feckin thieving council!
My council tax bill has just arrived & it's £2104.
For what exactly?

The Police are less use than an ashtray on a motorcycle. Unless they are persecuting motorists, then they are hyper efficient! They definitely don't have my best interests at heart anymore. As I'm not a disabled, black, transgender, illegal immigrant.
The bin men won't empty my recycling bin if there's a rogue crisp packet in there "contaminating" the bin
Garden rubbish collection now incurs an additional charge. It used to be included in the rip off tax.
I don't have kids using the local schools.
My local library was shut yonks ago & campaigns to reopen it have failed. Allegedly due to a lack of funding?
The town centre looks like a n.other town somewhere in Eastern Europe, Somalia or Afghanistan etc. Only far more dirty & derelict.
The roads resemble the surface of the moon only with more craters (maybe not a local council issue but I thought I'd drop it in during my rant )

The council f#cked up a loan of millions of £'s to the local football club a few years back. Basically the money was stolen.
Ever since then the local people have been carrying the can for their incompetence. Loads of local services have either been the subject of huge cutbacks or permanent closure. And every year since they've applied the maximum possible increases to our council tax!

I normally pay the bill in one hit. Only because that way it only boils my pi$$ once. Not every month for 10 months.
However, this year I think I'll make the c#nts work for their pound of flesh.
I'll only be paying enough to stop any court proceedings & only after multiple requests to pay up.

 

[MartytheMartian]

Yeah I can't figure out where the local council here put the Council Tax money either. They take plenty in but, in the last twenty odd years they have cut the libraries, stopped having street sweepers in my area, no garden rubbish collection, charges for lifting anything other than a wheelie bin and they only take the domestic rubbish bin once every three weeks and the recycling once a fortnight where they used to do that weekly and did garden refuse too during the summer. There are precious few public services compared to the nineties yet they are charging way more in tax so where exactly does it all go. The bastards even have the cheek to say they are skint all the time.

Oddly too, despite limiting each household to only one domestic refuse bin they have to come to my village several times a week with a crew of four on the wagon where, when I worked for the council for a while in Ayrshire we would cover an area the size of my village easily in one day with two men and a driver and that was pulling out individual bags from each house, as much as the householder wanted to put out and leaving a black bag for the householder too. The only condition was that we had to finish the designated run on that day and we were finished whenever we pulled the last bags on the run even if that was early as an incentive to get the job done quickly and well. Methinks they are lazy bastards getting paid too much for too little now.

Check this out & pay attention to the names of those convicted...

It's from my local papers website & it lists the names of those that have recently been convicted & for what. Please bear in mind that the vast majority of the population of my home county is still made up of indigenous Brits.
Consequently, as the vast majority of names on this list appear to be folk from various parts of Eastern Europe. You gotta ask yourself how prolific such a small group must be, to be so overrepresented in this way?

Every time I see a 15yr-20yr old (at one-time) luxury German car (that seems to be their vehicle of choice. I guess it looks good in the photos they send home?) I always give it an extremely wide berth.
Does that make me a racist? Or do the figures in that link outlining the number of such vehicles being driven without insurance/MOT's & by unlicensed drunk drivers. Justify my suspicions about who may be behind the wheel?

 

[Sarky B’stard]

And bear in mind a good wedge of your own premium goes straight to the Motor Insurers Bureau to pay for all those uninsured drivers. The insured insure the uninsured. That should keep the contents of your bladder on a fast rolling boil.
