| WELCOME TO ROYALS RENDEZVOUS - THE 1871 CLUB The Royals Rendezvous – the 1871 Club was formed over the Christmas-New Year period of 2010-2011. Many of its initial members were regular contributors to the BBC 606 service – alas, no longer in operation – who wished for a more specialized Reading FC orientated forum, whilst maintaining the good spirited type of conversation and banter that the BBC tried to promote. In its first two years of existence, the Royals Rendezvous is achieving outstanding success, with new members signing up continuously, and the member base itself extremely active. Over 500 members, over 70,000 posts is proof enough of the growing role of this specialist Reading FC fans forum web site. It is already recognized in other sporting circles as a major source of news and fan interaction (especially that related to Reading Football club of course), and has a strong and enthusiastic moderation team.

I wouldn't believe Osborne, or any of them, if they told me grass was green. To call them bare faced liars would be an insult to a bare faced liar! |

We need it, but we won't get it. I thought a referendum on Europe was part of the Tory manifesto before they got into power. It just shows what a bunch of mealy mouthed liars they all are. The most recent excuse is that "now isn't the right time". When will be the right time then? I'll tell you, never! Why would any of the current bunch of MP's, regardless of their party, want to run the risk of alienating themselves from Europe when thats where they go once they retire from their current jobs. Its not called the gravy train for nothing. Just ask Neil and Glynis Kinnock, they're not doing to bad off it for a pair of wasters. |

A thousand miles away, but just round the corner in spirit

I think of two things here - In part what I was trying to say before on previous threads - that any party that comes into office will find just how irrevocably we are economically tied up with European business now, that there's no way out. If a referundum says no - which it would of course - and Britain lost a chunk of its economy, what politician would give the answers to the extra millions of unemployed - which WOULD happen? Take EU shareholders and funding out of British major firms and ... oh dear ... At the same time, the south of Europe has lived far too corrupt for far too long. Never mind the Brits, I understand the Finns not wanting to bail out Greece - when their citizens have been paying tax at 40-50% for so many years to now have to help the scroungers is beyond belief for them. It came out last week that a number of Greek bus drivers accumulating wages, loyal service service rewards, union benefits, out of hours, extra days etc etc were netting 6,000 euros A MONTH! Yep, they need to get their house in order in a big way! Spain is not so bad, but British politicians are angels alongside. In my city Pamplona, three right-wing politicians who also sat on the board of governors of a local savings bank each netted over 200,000 pounds last few years in 'diets' to attend meetings - held in the very city in which they live!!! |
