Would the poster still keep enough tension for the prison boss mon to throw rocks through it though?

Would it not have flapped?

 

He could've used up all of his excess blue-tack on the bottom of the poster to create the tension required.

A while ago much was made of the poor quality of Chinese produced steel compared with British.

 

So are we to assume Chinese and other overseas made steel have improved?

The steel we use (2304) has to be made to a specific standard soIt doesn’t matter where it comes from.

But it does all come from abroad.

Our homegrown steel industry is on its arse so anything this Tory mob say to the contrary is a tissue of cowshit

Anyway, a German has summed it all up better than I ever could:

We’d hope so given as we won’t be able to make our own

I can see no downsides whatsoever to being wholly reliant on a non-ally state for our steel imports

I have mentioned this several times. The EU have been leaders in environmental protections and I have no confidence that we will maintain those standards.

Socialist? Give over. Just because I think this iteration of the Conservative Party is utter dogshit does not make me a left wing Corbynite.

You wank over Thatchers ghost yet fail to see she wouldn't tolerate the ineptitude of this government and would never have made such drastic mistakes from Cameron onwards.  And she made some fucking howlers.

Everyone makes mistakes. Maggie, however, was imperious. You accept the few mistakes for the plethora of advantages. A bit like DT I suppose.

with the mess all public services are in it will take two terms to have any real impact and the environment will take longer than that. Rivers that have algae growth which deprives fish of oxygen is not reversed overnight.

These extra measures you mentioned and that the EU has employed is adding to the red tape and bureaucracy and is not going down well in Europe with the farmers.
