On other crimes he has, but has avoided trial or imprisonment and then pardoned himself 

Ok.
Got it now
As long as I receive my order by the 25th, I'll give you a 5 star trust pilot review.

It’s the same with all these people harping on about Iran, that regime is/was only there because they overthrew a brutal and sadistic dictatorship installed by the British under proxy for the Americans, because the leader at the time who everyone in Iran loved, wanted to nationalise oil and cancel the contracts with BP. 
A history well documented and factual, but that they bury whenever they can. History repeating itself again. What do they say, if you keep on doing the same thing over and over again and expect a different result, they call you crazy. Afghanistan, Libya, Iraq, Syria, Iran… 

So this country can continue to afford incoming immigration?
You do know that Britain has had over 10million come into this country since 2010?
The cost per day to the UK taxpayer is around £6million.
The majority are not refugees, not asylum seekers, but are economic migrants.
 
The total last year who were genuine refugees is 33,000, out of 898,000.
Some figures to make you think, and why we cannot continue to allow the system as it is. 
 

There is a problem in that. 
Green energy is brilliant, but relying on North Sea wind farms is damaging the seafloor environment. It is 'out of sight, out of mind'. Solar farms, using arable or livestock land to put up solar panels is not Green. The cleaning of those panels put earth damaging chemicals in the soil. Your Fairy liquid is one of the most damaging products, despite being biodegradable, imagine industrial strength Fairy cleaning products.
Wind power technology relies on wind; too little no electricity, too strong wind, and the turbines have to be switched off.
Solar panels are only about 15% effective. 85% of the sunlight is wasted, and the waste increases the ambient temperature around the panels, potentially reducing important natural wildlife. Crops and livestock can't be grown effectively around solar panels.
Importing goods from abroad, brilliant, let's keep our emissions at 0.4% while China goes to 25% of global emissions and we can ignore the emissions created by transporting goods halfway the world.
Yet manufacturing, as yet, electricity is not suitable to power smelting, metalwork, glass making. You need gas, coal or coke.
You can't have an economy without manufacturing, and you can't have 'legalise drugs' as the manifesto.

The national government 'confiscated' it. Instead of buying and building new local authority housing it went to national government to 'repay' the annual budgets and loans. Britain lost over 50% of the local authority housing.
Building companies were given land at cheap rates for housing, which instead of building on, they 'landbanked' after gaining planning permission. The top ten building companies own enough land to build over 1.5million properties (which is Labours housing target), and have the cash reserves already to do so, but can't get the skilled workers as they failed to train apprentices, and refuse to build unless they make a profit on sales.
There are some local authorities who have built or are building new properties, but used building companies who weren't part of the landbanking schemes, basically new building firms.
 
In Norfolk when Right to Buy came to force, an estate of new council properties had just been built in Bowthorpe and Costessey. Tenants were moved into those properties, often from older council houses and the Right to Buy discount meant they got new properties at extremely low prices. The older houses and flats those tenants were in were supposed to be renovated. Some of the areas ended up derelict (Anglia Square) 
That is a story in itself.
The Right to Buy scheme meant many tenants bought properties on mortgages that they could never afford, so were repossessed by the banks and building societies and later sold off to just cover the debt. Many private landlords bought numerous properties and made the cost of purchase through renting the houses out. I know of at least one Ipswich landlord, ex bank employee, who owned at least ten properties in Ipswich.

That worked wonders for council housing stock and affordable housing.
What happened to the cash they raised??
I struggle to see much in the way of reinvestment. 
As I heard the other day, it's not a cost of living crisis, it's a cost of profits crisis

I don't know enough to get into, nor support, any particular party.
The tories have just raped and pillaged our economy, (despite imposing austerity???) Whilst allowing their billionaire buddies to continual increase their profits at our expense. 
We need a complete clear out and start again with laws and legislation that try to keep up with the technological revolution we are all living in.
Renationalise all of our services to non profit organisations and see where we are in a decade or two?
Although I'll probably have departed by then.
Sorry guys, not trying to get all political & that,  but I don't use other media outlets.

@elmoputney please don't make assumptions I don't think you are reading everything properly.
What did I say about reform and political parties?
Very few constituencies will have an independent candidate choice in any election. You have the choice then to withhold your vote in protest, or vote elsewhere.
If you withhold your vote, it will make no difference, either Labour or Conservative will get in.
We have a first past the post voting system, the most constituencies they win denotes the winning party for government. They could in theory win with a minority vote!
Oh believe me I dislike the rich elite, I hate the tax evasion, from massive corporations like Amazon (who have never paid tax in UK) to tax avoidance by various ministers in the Conservative Party, many of whom who have never done an honest day's work in their lives.
In terms of political leanings I am more socialist than Conservative, with a belief that utilities, public transport etc should be nationalised. 
 
Treat the incoming humanely?
OK, so as homeless I got put in a hostel, or a hotel.
We created hostels on former airforce or army bases. We have put them up in hotels.
I was glad for the roof over my head not sleeping in the rough on the streets.
I didn't set fire to them, I didn't tear my barrack block down.
I made the effort to keep clean, I didn't riot because I didn't immediately get a property.
 
 

 
If I told you that for doing nothing that you would get £150 a week for doing nothing in UK, where in Romania you earn £50 a week, as a Nigerian, with no welfare state and you'll get nothing, but in UK you'll get £150.
If in Iraq, with no remaining welfare state, you earn £2 a week to feed you and your family, but in UK you'll get £300 you'd go to UK.
If you as a Bulgarian earn £75 a week for 50-60 hours, but the minimum wage per hour is £10.56 in UK, you'll try to get to UK.
 
That's just a small pick of nations, but there are Chinese, Syrians, various Eastern Europeans, Afghans (since before the invasion going back to 2000), Indians, Somali, Sudanese, Algerian, Tunisian, Moroccan and more.

I'm not offended, but I'm offended by our leaders.
George Bush and Tony Blair wanted to be remembered as great leaders, instead they created ISIS, and a series of failed states. Iraq and Iran have gone to hell in a handbasket,  Syria, Afghanistan, all from going back into Iraq.
Thing is we can call fascism for being on the right, but equally we have our Karen's and woke brigade calling fascism just for disagreeing. At some point we do need to stop incoming boats, that is not fascism.
Not all of these refugees are refugees, some are economic migrants.
This may be worth a read, long winded I know:
I bought a bird feeder. I hung it
on my back porch and filled it
with seed. What a beauty of
a bird feeder it was, as I filled it lovingly with seed.
Within a week we had hundreds of birds
taking advantage of the
continuous flow of free and
easily accessible food.
 
But then the birds started
building nests in the boards
of the patio, above the table,
and next to the barbecue. 
 
Then came the stinky winky. It was
everywhere: on the patio tile,
the chairs, the table ...
everywhere!
 
Then some of the birds
turned mean. They would
dive bomb me and try to
peck me even though I had
fed them out of my own
pocket.
 
And others birds were
boisterous and loud. They
sat on the feeder and
squawked and screamed at
all hours of the day and night
and demanded that I fill it
when it got low on food.
 
After a while, I couldn't even
sit on my own back porch
anymore. So I took down the
bird feeder and in three days
the birds were gone. I cleaned
up their mess and took down
the many nests they had built
all over the patio.
 
Soon, the back yard was like
it used to be ..... quiet, serene.... and no one demanding their
rights to a free meal.
 
Now let's see......
Our government gives out
free food, subsidized housing,
free medical care and free
education, and allows anyone
born here to be an automatic
citizen.
 
Then the illegals came by the
tens of thousands. Suddenly
our taxes went up to pay for
free services; small apartments are housing 5 families; you have to wait 6 hours to be seen by an a&e doctor; Your child's class is behind other schools because over half the class doesn't speak English.
 
Corn Flakes now come in a
bilingual box; I have to
'press one ' to hear my bank
talk to me in English, and
people waving flags other
than ”ours” are squawking and screaming in the streets, demanding more rights and free liberties.
 
Just my opinion, but maybe
it's time for the government
to take down the bird feeder. 🤷🤷
 
I'm going back to them.
I do as little supermarket shopping as I can, I buy my meat and veg from local stores, loose.
 
 
 

And I thought that I was mad with some of my sessions😅
Proper result that Mate, lovely looking fish, and the weight is just a bonus.

Bringing this up again, as I have found a couple more decent brands of canister:
Taylor and Brown.
These were an eBay search after I got annoyed at Coleman going from £20 for a 6pack to over £30. They were priced at £21.99 including carriage. Admittedly I have not used them carp fishing, but I think cold, wet, windy days and nights under a Beach Buddy or umbrella while pike or sea fishing might be a serious test. The canisters ran until empty with only a little reduction in flame due to low pressure.
This one was a surprise to me, NGT canisters! My mate Will mentioned them last summer after we had sworn at the Coleman canisters together previously. He picked up a bargain through Ebay and again, pike fishing mornings were the test. While I have not seen the canister run low, Will praised them for not being a problem when low.
 

There you go Mate, I know it's an old thread, but a bit of thingy on gas brands
 

It doesn't empty properly, even when put upside down when nearly empty. Always have to heat a bit of water up in a pan, then put the gas canister in the warm water in pan to get a decent burn, otherwise the flame is too low.

Funny thing is that many freezer baits become bio-active by a simple process called efflorescence, where salts and sugars come to the surface of the boilie. It is why some baits are more effective after a couple of days out of the freezer.
 
There were a number of bio-active ingredients, from meat meals to milk products, to pineapple juice (bromelain).
 

The NGT canisters if you are talking about the 500's are actually some of the best gas canisters out there. The ones to avoid if possible are Coleman!

Good morning to you all, so as I defrost in front of the fire i shall regale you with a tale of carp, rain and mud! (I’m like a cut price Terry Hearn!)
This tale has its foundation in last week, when I found myself once again ensconced in a stuffy hotel room for a “preparation course” ahead of my final exams next week. Chatting to wifey on the phone, she asked why I didn’t take any fishing gear with me, I explained how there wasn’t any time to disappear to a lake for a few hours, so wifey suggested that I get an overnight trip in as she is working and daughter is at nursery and I probably won’t be missed!
Still, as the wifey and I have another baby on the way, due in the summer, opportunities to get the rods out are going to become few and far between, so I prepped the gear, my daughter and I rolled some bait and on yesterdays dawn I was gone, heading for zombie sheep lake.
In arriving, I found the lake looking grey, sullen and foreboding. The water level was up by a good 2ft, meaning one of the islands had disappeared completely, and the other, only a few sorry looking branches poked above the water!
As I was alone, and the wind was piling in, with this being a rather barren landscape, with little to stop the howling wind between the Russian Steppes and my bivvy, I chose to set up on the back of the wind, tucked in behind a sorry line of bushes that did at least act as a wind break. It wasn’t raining, so I took the time to have a lead about to find my usual spot albeit from a different angle.
Happy with my spots, HMS Jenny (my bait boat) was launched into the chop, where she gamely battled the waves to deposit two pva bags of boilie crumb, pellet and maggots onto the spots. With that, I was fishing. 
Both rods being Fox Horizon X3S’s to Fox EOS 12000 reels, to lead core leaders, 3 1/2 oz leads fished as helicopter rigs to fox cortex braid, ESP Clawhammer hooks barbless size 6 fished slip D style.
Bait was my usual Premier Superaminos with belachan, shellfish and salmon oil with added robin red, I tend to just keep feeding the same bait all year through here and still keep having bites, plus it helps keep it established for next year. A good quality bait gets better with application in my eyes. 
With the rods out, it was time to set up house and have a cup of tea. As I was crouching down by the rods, watching the water for any subtle show that there may be fish about, my right hand rod tightened up, so the tea was flung to one side and I snatched up the offending rod, on hitting it, the rod took on its battle curve as the battle was joined.
After a spirited 20min scrap, where it bored remorselessly around the flooded margins, it finally rolled over and hit the net. I checked all the fins were flat, popped the hook out and rolled it up in the mesh for the short walk up the bank.
As it is rather steep on this side, with all the rain, it was like an ice rink, and I managed to slip over, landing on my bum with a carp in my lap! Still, the fish was undamaged so I laid it on the unhooking mat and unfurled the net.
I was faced with another rig in its mouth! Hanging from the scissors was a pink boilie, attached to a rig, safezone leader and a 4oz lead that had no chance of discharging from the lead clip as the tail rubber was jammed on tight! So I unhooked it for the second time and held it up for the happy snaps 


at 28lb exactly, he was in rude health, I don’t think the other rig had been there long as the mouth was not torn, but I treated both hook holds and let him go, a 4oz lead lighter!
I felt that he could be the start of a few, to get a bite so quickly, but alas, it wasn’t to be. HMS Jenny continued to battle the waves to deposit my baits back out there, the rain closed in and started hammering it down, I discovered a few leaks in my bivvy that will now need attention, the bank became a quagmire and it soon became a challenge to stand upright without slipping, let alone walk anywhere! So diving into the stand of trees, I picked up a carrier bag full of pine needles, pine cones and twigs, which I made a path from my brolly to my rods, now I had a grippy surface again, I got my head down and had a peaceful nights rest!
This morning, I awoke and redid the rods, or at least tried to! HMS Jenny, my indefatigable little Amazon special bait boat, finally gave in. Her props still spin, she splashed bravely through the waves, but when it came to drop the baits, the hoppers refused to release, the motor working the release mechanism had given up the ghost. HMS Jenny was like a WW2 Escort Corvette who’s used its last depth charge, it can sail gamely on, but not a lot else!
I chose to stick on a stringer on each rod and cast them out for the last hour or two, whilst I slowly packed up.
Sat on my bedchair, looking at the bags that needed packing away, whilst trying to drum up the enthusiasm to make a start, my left hand rod registered a rapid drop back! I leapt off my backside and promptly landed back on it again as my feet shot out from under me in the slimy muddy bank, and I landed flat on my back, picking my self up I watched the embryonic take fizzle out, I’d missed it! 
 
This proved to be the motivation I needed to pack away and go home. With the barrow loaded, I slip and slide my way back to the car park, load the car and head for home.
This proved to be a more mentally challenging session due to the conditions, and it did cross my mind to pack up and go home, but I gave my head a wobble and stuck it out.
Besides, a 28lb common in February isn’t a bad reward!
Now time for a hot bath, get HMS Jenny in dry dock and see if I can get her back to her little bobbing best!

Many premium brands as @yonny has said are pop-up mix and flavour, that could be any brand, although there are some that have that something.
Garlic is one of those additions that can really put fish on the bank, but it is finding the garlic that works; in pop-ups I never found powdered versions work, possibly not enough smell, and I am not scientific enough to work it out, but in a food bait they may work well.
 
Oh those coatings can be fun to make, can be as simple as rolling dried baits in egg, then rolling in powder.
 
 
 
Funnily enough I have caught far more on a food bait equivalent than on a yellow pop-up on most waters. The yellow pop-up produced fish on 'small fish' waters, but not on big fish venues, although the past couple of years did produce stocked fish rather than original fish on the syndicate.
Thinking back to various 25lb+ commons I have caught, none came on yellow baits, all but one were on snowman baits, food bait with an identical coloured pop-up (not necessarily same flavour), the one that didn't was on a single 15mm food bait.
 
 
As an add, I did remove the 'disagreement', not going to have it get nasty. Express an opinion, give your point and don't have a go.

That's where I used 50% base mix and 50% sodium caseinate to have a matching pop-up to the base mix. 
The base mixes I used that ratio with were New Concepts Mariner mix and Nutrabaits The Biollix, which were both fairly heavy base mixes.
Usual procedure was make a 4egg mix of normal baits. While the base mix was out I would put around 1eggs worth of powder to one side for the bit for pop-ups and I would sieve the base mix to get rid of larger lumps and then add the same amount volume of sodium caseinate. So if I had 1 measuring cup of base mix, I would add 1 cup of caseinate. One egg in a bowl, add the required flavours/liquids if using any at 1/4 of what 4eggs took then mix as per normal.
I usually had enough pop-up mix left over for another 1 eggs worth of pop-ups.
 
A mate did the same when he used Enervite for his pop-ups, and that must be sieved!
 
 
 

Heard of 50kg pop ups that went on a trip to France with some mates once 😂😂 can’t remember which ingredient did it though. 

I can't say I pay too much attention to branding. The value of branding is down to one's individual perception based on the product and, I hate to say it, marketing. Most of what I would consider to be 'premium brands' offer their fair share of stuff I'd never use but I'd not want to devalue any brand based on that fact (apart from Nash, obviously 😂). 
A brand is just a name for a company imo.
Do I think SHB make decent/premium hookbaits? Yes, absolutely. I only use them for certain applications, but I've done so for probably 10 years + now. They have caught me some very special fish and that breeds confidence. Confidence is as important as anything in carp angling imo.
