PMSL!

[wolf63]

Maybe you should buy Tena for men!

[ToraToraTora]

the 5C hate it when you spot their hypocrisy.

[Khandro]

The Labour Party & many trade unionists have always had links to Russia

[ToraToraTora]

indeed Khandro, they've always loved communism, they think it can work.

[Atheist]

As have the conservatives. Money's money!

[douglas9401]

Just checked and two wrongs still don't make a right.

Mind you don't chafe in the cold wind.

What does 5C Stand for ?

[Khandro]

Btw, Douglas, it's not 'windae' for window (from another thread), it's 'windy', as an erstwhile Scots girlfriend of mine used to say; "Look oot the windy" :0)

[steg]

I’d say windae and spell it that way as well.
Things get windy after to many beans

[Khandro]

[maggiebee]

Right on Steg - look oot the windae on a windy day and see the leaves blawin' aboot.

[gulliver1]

No one knows what 5c stands for then.

[maggiebee]

No idea what 5C stands for Gully - TTT needs to answer that one.

// windae //

as in "pick yer windae, yer leavin'...."?

[Togo]

All his lawyer mates are up to their reptilian necks in Russian money. Using the law to silence any "reporting" and to intimidate anyone prepared to critisize them, with the threat of a blizzard of law suits. They have corrupted the very purpose of democratic law to satisfy their own greed. Sounds familiar doesn't it? Non of them are rattling the begging boxes and rushing to defend the Human Rights of the Ukrainians are they. They wouldn't dare.

[ToraToraTora]

everyone knows what 5C stands for, the ones claiming not to are probably in it.

[Togo]

Rest assured the colleagues of Bliar's wife, and probably her as well, will be in on the grovel for money from despots scramble.

[Mozz71]

Gulliver- Fifth Columnists.

Basically a double agent who helps an invading force from within their native country.

Quite who Tora thinks the invading forces are is anyone's guess. Depends who his enemy of the day is I assume.

[maggiebee]

Thanks Mozz. According to TTT "everyone knows what 5C stands for." Apparently not - I've been called a lot of things in my time, but this is not one of them lol

[Togo]

Not quite. A fifth columnist works from within to bring down a legitimate Government or acts in a way to make Governing impossible. No invading force required. Quinta Columna was originally coined in the Spanish Civil War.
