Right . . . obfuscating again.
You could just ave engaged in the discussion, but you were too busy throwing the usual crap around - lies and nothing else. Why would you do that? Who are you trying to convince?
Here you go for the umpteenth time:
Can you provide some prof or facts? Simple.
Discussion topic. You said the above and I asked you to back it up. If you can't then just say so. Simple.
Clearly not . . . nor back up any assertion you make, as ridiculous as they are.
You seem very angry, despite the laughing smiley . . . how many bottles down so far today?
Oh dear . . . clearly too many already . . . and it's not even 07:30 and you've been at it quite a while already today . . . still drunk or drunk again, NPT?
To be fair, it's like Brexit - nothing works, but at least you have chico
^ you truly are a dull witted idiot, life in NZ must be a real drag, try asking your neighbour if you can use his pool to find something in your life to interest you.
If it has, I haven't yet seen any evidence of it during my long week-end in England. The fuel crisis seems to have abated though and there are no empty shelves in the shops I've been to. The number of shops closed in the high street is also on a par with what I have seen in Germany; more to do with Covid and on-line shipping than Brexit.
I did find a distinct lack of quality in the shops though; everything I was looking for was distinctly average and not worth buying.
I realise it's a bit of thread mixing, but I can understand why the Covid numbers are so high in England. There is very little adherence to mask wearing and much worse than I have witnessed in Germany, France or even Croatia. I would estimate only 1/3 of people wearing masks when in shops and very few shop assistants are wearing them. They have alcohol at the entrance to the shops but I didn't see many actually using it. That is with the exception of Asians (China and Far Eastern rather than Indian and ME) and, of course, me. There was also definitely a higher number of people over 60 taking precautions.

UK boat detained by France amid fishing rights row
A British trawler has been seized by France and another has been fined, amid an escalating row over post-Brexit fishing rights.
French maritime minister Annick Girardin said the ships were cautioned during checks off Le Havre overnight.
She said the first did not comply right away and the second was not allowed to fish in French waters so was detained.
On Wednesday, Brexit Minister Lord Frost said French threats to block UK boats from ports were "disappointing".
Ms Girardin said on Twitter one of the British trawlers was caught fishing in the Bay of Seine without the proper licences.
She said the boat was diverted to the port of Le Havre and detained by the judicial authority, where their catch could be confiscated and the boat held until a deposit is paid.
The boat's captain also risks penal sanctions.
Meanwhile, the other boat was fined for initially resisting the check, Ms Girardin added.
The minister said checks on the British vessels were standard during the scallop fishing season.
But she added they had also been undertaken against "the backdrop of the tightening of controls in the Channel, in the context of discussions on licenses with the United Kingdom and the European Commission".
Barrie Deas, of the National Federation of Fishermen's Organisations, the body representing fishermen in England, said a "tit for tat" relationship between the UK and France was "unhelpful".
Mr Deas told BBC Radio 4's Today programme the enforcement actions might be "normal" but were "very concerning" in the context of the French government's threats.
He suggested more French boats fish in British waters than UK vessels fish in French waters and that a "tit for tat relationship" was not "helpful" and would leave the French fleet "much more exposed".

Haven't they heard about the AUSUS and UK pact ?
^ Here he is, thank goodness Helge. Now what's your take on Micron's threats, his minister is calling the UK the enemy - got to love the little surrender monkeys - everyone loves a trier.
PS
The UK is nothing to do with the AUSUS pact.
PPS
I am rather hoping for an Art 16 trigger.
I think it's time to sink a few fishing boats...
...and keep sinking them until I get the wife's passport back...
^ on TD frequently
and a lot of toilet trading in TDH
Herman the buthurt German with selective reading skills How the shelves and Economy in Germany?
Of the 162 licences, 113 were permanent, an increase of two, and 49 were temporary, an increase of 18.
Vessels with a temporary licence would be able to fish in Jersey waters until 31 January 2022, "to give them time to provide further data which is necessary to secure a permanent licence".
There were 55 vessels in a third category that would not have a licence to fish in Jersey waters after 31 October, said the statement.
It’s understandable that’s your conclusion, Chico Spamilton.
The real one is waay beyond you.
Yet according to Troy, the fuel crisis is over, and there are no empty shelves in the shops!
Quality is very subjective anyway. Witness his recent thoughts on cars and footwear.
Sorry, but you can’t have it both ways, and there are always more choices than, the guardian or nothing!
Quite funny really, the froggies could singlehandedly provide and excuse to trigger Art 16 - i'd love to be in Brussels to hear what they are saying about Micron - too funny.
some text and context
The minister warned the EU that the UK would not hesitate to take retaliate if Paris broke international law in a strop over fishing licences.
France has threatened to block British boats from some ports and tighten checks on those travelling between France and the UK if the Government does not issue more licences for European vessels to access UK waters.
It has given the UK until next Tuesday to meet their demands.
However, officials in London insist licences have been issued to all French boats who have provided the necessary paperwork to support an application.
They say the UK is granting access as laid out in the EU trade deal signed last December.
Both Britain and the EU first heard of Paris's ultimatum through the media on Wednesday evening after the French government failed to formally notify their counterparts in London and Brussels of their threat in advance.
At a meeting with European Commission Vice President Marcos Sefcovic in London today, Lord Frost vowed a robust response to French aggression.
A UK Government spokesperson said: "Lord Frost set out to the Vice President our concerns about the unjustified measures announced by France earlier this week to disrupt UK fisheries and wider trade, to threaten energy supplies, and to block further cooperation between the UK and the EU, for example on the Horizon research programme.
"Lord Frost made clear that, if these actions were implemented as planned on 2 November, they would put the European Union in breach of the Trade and Cooperation Agreement (TCA).
"The Government is accordingly considering the possibility, in those circumstances, of launching dispute settlement proceedings under the TCA, and of other practical responses, including implementing rigorous enforcement processes and checks on EU fishing activity in UK territorial waters, within the terms of the TCA."

I miss Seeking Arse, he'd be great defending this shower. I worry that perhaps he believed his own forecasts and shorted the pound and is now touting himself as exotic meat to pay his debtors.
^ keep fishing Syb, you are on a roll tonight - shame snubs has passed out he was worried about TD traffic earlier. Give S Arse a ring and see if he's still with us or has he made it to Ireland with his bloke.
