You won’t be able to go out soon without a load of online people knowing where you are and what you are doing. And dealers will have to have a credit card machine. Red and Blue Army!

In a taxi in London, when people pay by card, which is over half, maybe two thirds, the taxi driver gets charged 5% by the bank, so a £10 fare on the clock is really £9.50, it"s madness, and theirs talk of that going up to 8%, all the money flows back to the bankers, even when they fcuk up and the gov bails them out! I only pay cash, if they don"t take it i don"t spend, simples!

Andros Townsend says players must "push for change". It's great coming out with these generalised statements (as they do with poverty, the environment), but there never seems to be any detail. Perhaps it's because then it can be easily debunked. What change does he want? How is it going to be done? If it's sensible reform, then I'm happy to go along with it, but I'm not sure what the goal is here. [Link] Edited by Penge Eagle (18 Jun 2020 4.22pm)

[Link] Edited by Penge Eagle (18 Jun 2020 4.22pm) He wants change where it benefits his in-group.....but he wants you to ignore where his preferred in-group benefit. For example, he's happy that black football players are over represented in sports like football or athletics. However, he isn't happy where his in-group are under represented. He's only interested in the meritocracy argument where it suits him and where it is doesn't......racism. It's the same old one eyed power play.

Football players should stay out of politics. I would sack the entire FA. Edited by Stirlingsays (18 Jun 2020 4.52pm) 'Who are you and how did you get in here? I'm a locksmith. And, I'm a locksmith.' (Leslie Nielsen)

This is from globalsportmatters.com With 80.7 percent of players being people of color, the NBA takes the lead among men’s sports for player diversity. Doesn’t sound very diverse.

Originally posted by croydon proud I don"t now think you are as bad as i thought, could even see you humming along to Bob Marley, without feeling you are letting the "side" down , so not bad at all! Rabb wanting to get rid of the £7.50 minimum wage, so they could pay less, could come back to haunt him in his professional life, i certainly hope so!Never thought all whites are unfair, that would include me, and half the people on these demonstrations are white after all, just maybe a bit gullable! Love a bit of reggae but old school, loads of house,dance,all old school mobo really. Not a lover of grime as lyrics are not fitting of our present situation tbh. Ub40 one of my faves as well as Alex and luther. If Music is the food of love play on. and not just romantically .getting rid of the min wage wouldn't always have meant abuse by employers. If you are good at your job and valuable with good attitude and aptitude the option would be there for negotiation. Now that has been taken away and useless and good are payed the same. Must be a little harsh mentally to know you get the same wage as a t***. Yes gullible is the word but I think many blacks are falling for the old spin trick as well. I maintain it isnt just about racism and is becoming clearer by the day. I feel others are thinking the same.

Their wages, their contracts & no more non people of colour telling them how to play football. Or, summat like that, so i was told. This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise.
