I love it mate, keeps people talking and most people post good stuff even if I don't agree with it

You clearly did, let's be honest here.

Plagiarism isn't very nice.

I'll remember to post source for every picture and call out everyone who posts a picture without giving credit.

But for everyone else's knowledge, that is not my table nor is that any of my food. I did not take the picture and only found it amusing. If anyone was thinking of sending me funds for my picture remember it is not my possession and please keep your hard earned but continually decreasing pounds.

For your ease of mind it was posted on fb by my friend Thilan Koththigoda who i'm sure got it from someone else on the net who got it from someone else.

I think you should avoid associating yourself with plagiarising individuals then; judge a man by the company he keeps, that sort of thing

Appreciate the lesson in plagiarism. I would appreciate knowing where your Profile picture came from because I am doubting you took it yourself. A look through your profile page shows no source.

The politicians are have caused this - if you want to blame anyone for this, blame the politicians (on all sides). This demonstrates the total distrust and disconnect between the politicians and the electorate. They offered a referendum thinking it had no chance of achieving the "Leave" vote. The Remain camp ran a terrible campaign (not helped by a half-hearted effort by Corbyn). We had the Leave campaign telling people what they wanted to hear, and the Remain campaign negatively campaigning on what "would happen" if we voted out. In a nutshell, they made a dog's dinner of it.

This mess falls at the feet of those in Parliament - they need to sort their crap out and get their game faces on.

Labour are unelectable under Corbyn.

The Tories would be unelectable if they ignored the result of the referendum.

Doesn't leave much does it? Lib Dems or UKIP? *shudders*

I went to an Indian supermarket in Balmoral (suburb of Auckland) today. The quality of the spices (tumeric, cumin, garam masala etc) is SO superior to those one gets in your 'garden variety' supermarket really blew me away.
I will certainly be making a return trip

I know mate but I wasn't claiming it as my own like your good self as I stand to gain nothing from it. Are you accusing everyone on the site of your devious underhand behaviour?

You were seeking to pass off a genuinely amusing photo off as your own. Heinous plagiarism.

Those 2000 are all executives and hotshot traders on 7 figure bonuses, clearly. No regular average people going to lose their jobs because of this.

Clearly.

What argument?

Your point was that the Scottish voted against independence.

Mine was that many Scots (who would be eligible for a Scottish passport should one ever exist) were not given the choice to vote. And that many people who would not have been eligible for a Scottish passport were allowed to vote (and vote heavily to stay in the UK). In other words, it was not the Scottish necessarily who voted against independence but those who were deemed eligible to vote who voted against it.

To paraphrase a good old Austrian/German saying, it is to me a sausage who it was who decided that.

In this referendum, people holding a British passport (and the last time I checked it had unrestricted right of entry and residence to and in the UK) were not allowed to vote, even if they were living in other EU countries under laws to which the UK had agreed and despite the fact that this eligibility had been promised previous to the referendum (see recent court case to fight for right to vote).
