... or perhaps proudly liberating Europe, North Africa and Asia from the tyranny of fascism, proudly fighting IRA terrorists to protect our own people when the police can't, proudly intervening in a civil war in the Balkans and in doing so saving tens if not hundreds of thousands of lives (the list goes on a long way). You seem to have forgotten: perhaps you would be happy if our nation was speaking German and gassing Jews?

Still waiting for the revolution Che?

Oh hang on Che was chief cheerleader for the Soviet army and it's tanks squashing poor people in Hungary 60 years ago but that's ok no doubt because those poor people were "fascists and CIA informers" (_ :wink:

Try to bear in mind you're trapping off your student tripe on a device manufactured by a corporation on the internet built up and maintained by corporations hmmmm you're probably even munching on coco pops brought to your revolutionary breakfast table by various corporations right now.

Now please just get off a website that specifically deals in prices for products and services by big corporatians and raise that fist high some place else citizen!

What on earth are you talking about?
I served as an Army officer for a long time and I'm proud of almost everything we did (the possible exception being the Iraq piece that the Labour government of the time led us into). Generally I think it was worth the effort, even for those who lost their lives, except that is when I read comments like yours and conclude it was not worth the sacrifice for people like you.

Excellent. In my opinion we should support and be very proud of our armed forces. It is bizarre that so many people are convinced by the loony left arguments that terrorists are nice people really.

Any student discount

This makes me so very cross.

what does?

already voiced his opinion in another thread .. i don't think he likes the fact that Forces personnel and emergency services staff deserve any form of thanks or recognition for the sacrifice they give ....

Entitled to his opinion I guess, even though I don't agree with it.

Much respect to these guys can't say it's something I would/could do, even moreso with the current state of the world!

unfortunately they are seen as enforcers of the UK's misguided foreign policy.

Excellent. In my opinion we should support and be very proud of our armed forces. It is bizarre that so many people are convinced by the loony left arguments that terrorists are nice people really.

Don't be cross It's only a £6.99 meal I'm offered for free. I still have to purchase my drink tho, that should make you happy.

Proudly assisting UK corporations to steal poor peoples' natural resources for over 200 years and causing radicalisation, and I couldn't give a damn if you don't like facts and get triggered by reality.

Got to keep the government stooges fed haven't we, can't be dropping bombs on innocent kids on an empty stomach.

In a country where almost everything runs on how much profit everyone can make off each other, it's nice to see someone giving something away for free to people who stand strong for the rest of us.

Just a shame we don't see it more often would definitely make us think more of others and not the greed that drives practically everything nowadays.

Hilarious response, I'm probably older than you. Scientific studies have shown that if you present 'right-winged brain' people with facts they simply double-down on their own internal bias so I gave up arguing with idiots twenty years ago.

What a great thing to do for people who serve our wonderful country, its a shame this isn't extended to all emergency services too especially given what is happening on home soil at the moment and the great lengths they go to saving lives.

Are you saying these children are guilty?

Why be so cynical? Of course it is free; I may even dig out my veteran's badge and take advantage it it.

Absolutely outstanding reply. Well said sir.

And this is why I don't travel home in kit anymore because of uneducated half wits. Great news, I'll be enjoying my sunday dinner. Thanks

Well thank you most kindly, pretty basic reality if you ask me but not according to her hohum



If you are older than me then unfortunately time ain't made you any wiser has it? You seem to think stating people with views anything right of your distrurbing leftist outlook on life is a smear :smirk: what sort of weirdo must you be?

I am proud to say I am the son of a refugee who managed to escape one of your socialist utopias during the Cold War, I am proud to say I've not been brought up to sneer at success and be jealous of those who have more than me and I am very very proud to be of mixed British and Hungarian heritage.

You ya clown are yesterday's man advocating ideology that left half of Europe in tatters for half of the last century, socialism/communism lost there like it's losing in your Venezuela's and Cuba's now.......the world has moved on and though your occasional 5 minute populist blips like cretin Corbyn will happen all those young n stupid students grow up and start earning their own dough in a parliament or two, then question why they ever even thought that way.



Vermin, no other word

I have a similar view of people who drop bombs on innocent civilians.

Does UOTC count ?? :smile:

The last Sea Harrier left service in 2006 - when we had a Labour administration, the drawdown in Germany happened at much the same time, again under a Labour administration, which at the same time issued the infamous comfort letters to many known IRA terrorists (but none to the pensioners in their 80s who happened to be serving with 1Para and are still being hounded for things that may or may not have happened).
You are entitled to your view (as are all members of the loony left in the liberal democracy we strive to protect), but very clearly your facts are demonstrably wrong, so I think yours is an ill considered opinion.

Like every airforce from every country that has ever been involved in any war you mean?

I might be wrong but I get the impression your beef is only with your own country like all good little leftist traitors (who only seem to exist in the west) and the countries you hate hmmmm most likely the septics and the Cohens, am I right?




Did you just set up a Jekyll account to spout off some old pony you copied n pasted off momentum's website? :smirk: #obsessed

point 1- I said SOLD harriers & point 2 -one of my old bases & one of the last to go Fallingbostel closed in 2015 well into a tory government that could easily have reversed the situation as for the para issue I wasn't there but I have every sympathy for those involved & believe its wrong I have far greater concerns with the torys getting bed with the DUP & threatening a very fragile peace

I don't for a moment believe you are either an ex-soldier or an ex-policeman. You are just spreading loony left fake news from the Momentum web-site. You should be ashamed of yourself.
By the way, we still have a presence in Germany (at Rhinedahlen and Paderborn for example).

But pro SF IRA Corbyn and McDonnell being in charge of a Labour government wouldn't threaten the peace process in a DUP majority Protestant Unionist Northern Ireland?

Ah hahaha well n truly rumbled, I am more a follower of Trotsky than you are what you and your new snide username claim to be pal :smile:

He's some muggy momentum teenager who ain't even started shaving yet, obvious from the fact he set up a new log in to spout leftist tripe in a deals website?

And to think I've read some of the reds on here gob off claiming this site has been targeted by 'right wing infiltrators' to score political points, priceless!

He's not pro IRA, I always wonder what type of people let themselves be manipulated so easily by the right wing media, personally I like to think for myself.

Your arguments and personal attacks are so cliched you're only making yourself look stupid. I'll break habit and provide one comment before I leave you to your own angry musings. Socialism is simply what a society collectively agrees to fund through taxation, for example 'the military' which you are so proud of. Other examples are infrastructure and policing, in most civilised societies this also extends to health and education. There are many successful social democracies which you have typically failed to mention such as Scandinavia and most of western Europe. With regard to your comments about right wing brains these aren't my ideas, they are based on scientific studies. Social anthropologists have determined that co-operation and competitiveness are both valid drivers because they have survived the evolutionary process, most people have a healthy balance between the two but it is mapped on a bell-curve so people with extreme views tend to shout the loudest. Communists, fascists, radical Islamists, the conservative right, the people driving British and American foreign policy are all the same to me, they are radical fundamentalists whose policies are driven by their fight or flight response, in short, they are psychologically sick. These type of people always gravitate to authoritarian regimes because they want someone to make them feel safe. Do us all a favour and let normal people engage in civil society. If you knew anything about history you would know that FDR was the most popular president in US history and he was much further to the left than either Bernie Sanders or Jeremy Corbyn. The political spectrum has been shifting further and further to the right over the last 50 years, due to corruption, whereby the 'radical left' of today would have been considered centrists in the 1950s. You continue to make ridiculous assumptions about me in your comments because you believe aggression silences other people's voices but I'm too long in the tooth to be bothered by the 'respect our military' brigade but if it makes you feel better to vent some of that fear, have at it horse.

I think you are right: he certainly has not been a soldier, served in Fallingbostel or been a policeman, I doubt that he (or she) is 63 either. He/she has chosen what seems to be a plausible on-line name (I don't think any ex-policeman would have selected that one) in an attempt to appear plausible, but is just spreading loony left fake news.
On this occasion the impostor has been seen through, but it is a sad indictment of the loony left's tactics that it seeks to make progress through a cheap deals website.

He's never shared a platform with any Blacknecks or Wombles but shared plenty with provos, so what way do you interpret that?

Corbyn was already on my radar as anti Loyalist when I was a teenager growing up in the 80's so pipe down with your childish momentum one line responses........I don't need the Telegraph or Express to tell me something I've known for 30 years!

Nice speech from some Oxbridge sociology project but where is your proof I am pro septic and where is your proof I am so proud of the military?

I just believe it is right to respect them because the strength of me going on to a battlefield is arguing with jumped up hypocrites like you on the interwebs and a few tear ups I had here n there in my colourful past.

Remember you are the dinlow preaching your contempt for corporations whilst using a corporation device on a corporation medium, genius :smirk:

Nothing?

If a pupil wraps a chair round a techer's head they get 6 months off along with their 4 months annual holidays, get some mental compensation pay out too and then still go out on strike demanding more!

Hate to rain on your parade but the vast majority of teachers are almost as toxic as politicians and corrupt old bill as far as I'm concerned

... I just had an amusing vision of the parade down the Mall if it included all civil servants: HMRC tax collectors at the front perhaps, followed by the massed bands of of the social workers and probation officers, teachers next (men in corduroy jackets with leather elbow patches and chalk marks on the cuffs, women wearing very sensible shoes indeed) followed up by the 1st Bn the Traffic Wardens (Militia)...

Haha don't forget C Company of the Local Government Environmental Health Regiment

im in the military And a student :smile:

... but not studying English!
;-)

Ah so now you've gone from him supporting them to sharing a platform with them.
They are miles apart from the same thing, please try and think for yourself.

Well go share a platform with Paul Gadd or Rolf Harris then, nobody would assume you support them when you do because that's thinking for ourselves :smirk:

I didn't understand a word of that response I'm afraid, were you asking for sources whilst simultaneously falling back on an anti-intellectualism argument? Give up whilst your behind dude before I really embarrass you.

So you're clearly a septic hater yet you use terminology like 'dude' and then have more front than Southend in telling me to pipe down :smile: keep it coming you repugnant little mam

You just lost the argument.

Oh really, so sharing platforms with anti British catholic sectarian serial killers does not mean you support them whilst sharing platforms with child abusing British and Australian beasts means you do?

Brilliant, have another go you disgusting treacherous worm.

Ulster is Britain, Kosovo is Serbia and Vojvodina is Hungary.......learn something!

Whatever your views are on the army and that, can we not all unite behind the undeniable fact that carvery place are absolutely ****?

Here's me thinking this was about free mediocre food?

There's some **** idiots on here spouting a lot of **** that has nothing at all to do with either this website or this deal.

Pubs with no beer. If you like your "real" cask conditioned ales, you will be disappointed.

I rest my case.

I'm ex military, may or may not take advantage of the deal and appreciate the fact that military have fought long an hard on many occasions to allow all to have the freedom of speech to express opinions as shared on this thread.

I don't agree with much of it and will not waste bandwidth in responding to some of the ridiculous stuff that has been posted. Also hope that Toby will have an Emergency Services offer of a similar nature in the near future.

Hilarious some of the narrow minded immature people preaching absolute crap over a deals forum. So full of hate about the very country they live in, about the people that protect them from foreign threats. Your lives must be so sad and boring if this is what its come to!

Sharing a platform with ANYONE does not necessarily mean you support them.
How stupid do you have to be to think it does?

Why did he refuse to meet representatives of the Loyal Orders in the late 90's when the Garvaghy Road dregs were playing the downtrodden victims as usual?

And I'm glad you've confirmed you'd be prepared to share a platform with kiddie fiddlers, Harriet Harman is all for that caper so give her a bell and exercise your right to indulge in that famous left wing tolerance of intolerable people :smirk:

... aren't you the chap who wanted our nation to be speaking German and gassing Jews earlier on?

I was in the Army ...

I didn't confirm anything of the sort, your stupidity is there for the whole board to see.

But maybe that techer (sic) went into the profession to teach things such as correct English and never anticipated that the majority of their time would be spent on crowd control. As for all these so-called benefits and perks, I would love to learn from whence you are getting your "facts".

Voted cold for obvious reasons.

I'm pleased to see that 'oldsoldier' has disappeared from this forum since his/her cover as a Momentum stooge was blown. It is a pity that not even this cheap deals site is safe from political subversion by the loony left.

Weirdo

The majority of the comments here have no relevance to the deal. Cannot the moderators exclude the use of Hotdeals as a political platform? There are plenty of other forums where political views can be expressed.

...if the cap fits - wear it!
;-)

Alas many teachers go in to the profession not just with the intention of speaking English and Maths but teaching their form of political and moral values too. Quite frankly if they don't like the 'crowd control' aspect of their brief then they've clearly chosen the wrong gig or perhaps they're still willing to swallow it for those 4 months a year paid holidays eh :smirk:



My stupidity from you, whilst preaching good IRA/bad British Army and conveniently ignoring facts about your hero Jesus Christ the second his communist highness Corbyn selecting one side of the sectarian divide from across the water to 'share platforms with' whilst point blank refusing to meet with the other :smile:



We know the drill, future 'Zionists' rather plain old Jews.......just you wish it could have been Hamas,Fatah and Hezbollah that carried it out rather than the Wehrmacht eh :man:

Can student discount be applied?

Maybe you would benefit from a spell in the classroom which may change your hackneyed and stereotypical views regarding the teaching profession. Surprisingly, many teachers go into teaching to, er, um, erm, TEACH.

Please show me the part of their brief/contract which states that crowd control is part of their remit - daily verbal abuse, violence, sexual innuendo, general disrespect etc etc.

As for politics, teachers are explicitly forbidden from promoting political views in the classroom by law. Indeed, under the Education Act they are required, legally, to ensure that where politics is being discussed, pupils 'are offered a balanced presentation of opposing views'.

Finally, sigh, the age old and weary subject of holidays and hours. Most (not all) teachers are (contractually) not paid for holidays. On the contrary. They are paid during holidays. There is a big difference. Also, the school day (perhaps 9am to 3.30pm for example) is the hours a pupil is required to attend and not the hours a teacher is expected to work. Another big difference.

A few years ago I travelled to a family event which was also attended by a cousin who was a secondary teacher in an inner city school.

I asked what he taught.

He regarded me studiously, contemplated momentarily, removed his spectacles and said in a resigned voice: "Little b*st*rds."
