Listening back to send this to someone, cause I’m still laughing at it 2 weeks later. They had an American influencer on Off the Ball who was doing ‘Scottish challenges’, so Tam Cowan asked her a very important question -
@_DIGB 4 public rejections now (dyche, Gerrard, rohl and now muscat). Nobody in the right mind would consider the job looking at that from the outside. As baffling as it is infuriating
The average farmer earns £21k - £50k. For that, he's up and out all weather's, at 4am and to bed at 9pm, 7 days a week, 364 days a year. If animals are ill, or being born, he will work around the clock. I know farmers, and its gruelling.
That they're sat on land, that happens to have increased in value, doesn't mean they're rich. They SHOULD be rich, with a market of over 70m people in the country that need food, but they're not.
The criticism of our farmers for owning property that they farm, is all coming from the same lazy cunts, that get paid by the tax payer, and want to reduce their hours to a 4 day week on the same pay, or upper middle class academics, whose jobs entail bleating about Brexit on Twitter all day for the Guardian, or sat in a warm TV studio.
They're so unbelievably out of touch with the working man, its unreal.
Farmers have some of the highest suicide rates in the UK.
We must protect them at all costs.
I'm pretty disgusted how silent the supermarkets have been on this subject.
75: Dick Campbell is booked by the referee following a serious of loud complaints. After the Clyde crowd sing to cheer him up, he turns around and gives them a gesture with his hand that I’m hoping was a wave. [2-0]
I’m far more concerned about the knife crime epidemic than second hand smoke in a beer garden.
Our PM has got the wrong priorities because he’s clueless.
I detest smoking. It's an awful habit, terrible for your health and I urge anyone to quit.
But. At some stage, we have to trust people to make their own decisions.
If we banned any harmful habit, we'd be living very boring lives.
Where do we draw the line? Alcohol? Unhealthy food? Driving? Contact sport? Why even bother leaving the house at all?
The line of 'protecting' the NHS just doesn't wash. You're in a pub garden. If someone is having a cigarette a few tables away, you are not in any danger. At all.
'Protect' the NHS is the most dangerous slogan in my lifetime. I certainly don't want to see that toxic principle applied to all other areas of society.
Educate people, tell them the facts, and let them make their own decisions. We're all big enough and ugly enough to do that.
Outsourcing responsibility to Government has to stop.
It didn't work during lockdown, and it won't work now.
Amazing commentary by Andrew Cotter and Hazel Irvine as everyone is forced to do karaoke.
Andrew: “You can read those lyrics on the screen can’t you Hazel.”
Hazel: “my eyes don’t seem to be working.”
Andrew: “the words are la la la la la. Or in French, the the the the.”
