I must say, and this isn't directed at just one person - Since when did a politicians looks effect how they were as a politician? All the stick I seem to see her getting is about being ugly. When was the last time a politician was good looking? David Cameron looks like a testicle with eyes and hair, Clegg looks like a badly aged middle aged woman who's cut her hair short and been reborn a naturist. Tony Blair was considered a good looking politician for christs sake, surely thats saying something! No one is going to go into the polling booth and think "fwar I wouldn't mind a go of that, lets stick them in parliment and see where things go from where" firstly because they're all ugly c*nts anyway, but secondly what they look like has no relevance at all.

That or I'll off myself, my suicide weapon being over 60 feet away from me, with no fingerprints and having been fired twice

Can we all take a moment to form a pact that if by any massive stroke of misfortune the Green party manages to come into power, we'll incite a rebellion and train the local populace to wage war through our super airsoft trainings? I mean my local representive is called Abbey, and he's a man! If we can't trust these people to name themselves aptly, how can we trust them with a country? I honestly think I'd rather see UKIP get in than the Greens. I'll probably turn up in a holdall in a bathtub somewhere in Brighton for that little joke

Cheers Ed, Appreciate that!

Ed, Do I have to share it publicly for it to work/you see I've shared it? No one ony my Facebook knows I airsoft or have anything to do with it, or that it even exists for that matter. I try and keep it that way lol. If I were to share it with the only person able to view it being me, would that still be eligible ?

When I used to do the Land clearance and landscaping, I had to move an entire hill, complete with tree roots and buried 1930s era water feature no one knew was there by hand with a shovel when I was 13, didn't take a break the whole day, that was a good days work The education system is too focused on equipping our young people for office jobs. My secondary school was split into 3 smaller "colleges", one was for the gifted and talented, the other two were for "mainstream" students, which in itself is riduclous because that system has already been proven to cause mental health issues in children from studies conducted in America, the results also repeated themself in my school with numerous kids geting depression, attempting suicide, and even a year 8 trying to throw herself off the top of a building - I've no idea how the school managed to pressure a year 8 so much. I started prior to the new school being built and before all the mini school crap and we used to have not a care in the world. Anyway to my point, I wanted to take construction at GCSE, I was told I would not be able to, despite it fitting in with my time table, simply for the fact I was in the gifted and talented school, thus deemed "too inteligent" for it. Vocational subjects are completely brushed aside. I think they forget we need tradesmen, farmers, and so on. Anything remotely vocational was frowned upon at my school. The look on my teachers faces and that of the careers officer when I told them I wanted to join the Army, not as an Officer and just as an Infanteer, they were truly mortified ! I think an education reform, to make us more like Germany would be of great benefit. Trade schools and the like which they have over there. Maybe when we wouldn't have a load of unemployed degree holders with 40k debt and a chip on their shoulder about working in Maccy dees.

There are people who live in Glasgow that commute to London to work for the week,shopfitters, construction workers, my uncle who is a fabricator, even office types, I know plenty. And I know people in London who spend 3 days of their working week in Edinburgh for work. Not all jobs require you stay in one place There's work to be had everywhere. The problem with our generation is they're too picky, no one gives a toss if you have a degree, people need to get over that and understand they might need to take a job cleaning toilets till something better gets along. But people don't have that taught to them by their parents anymore for the most part. Schools tell everyone, no matter what qualification it is youre working towards at that point, "this is the moint important exam of your life and will determine if you have a good job or not in future" thats exactly what I was told at GCSE and exactly what i was told at A level. Problem then is, people do well in those exams and expect that ot automatically land them in an excellent job straight away. I've worked since I was 10, on market stalls selling furniture, then did gardening for people for a good few years, then labouring, then did a stint in Mcdonalds whilst I did my A levels. For the most of that work ( all Pre Mcdonalds) I didn't have GCSE's, and the 14 A*-B's and 1 C I got wouldn't of had me paid any more, nor did they get me paid anymore in Mcdonalds. We live in a generation that's been raised with a false sense of entitlement. Immigrants don't steal jobs, they take the one's we're too stuck up to do.

CES, I studied politics too. And I'm asussming we're roughly the same age, maybe I'm a smidgin older. Just because we did a 2 year course on politics doesn't make your opinion on politics anymore right that anyone elses lol. I'm sure UKIP would be putting all of their "taboo" views on official websites and documents for the world to see lol. Dismissing any racist or homophobic views just because theyre "closeted" is ridiculous, surely that makes them all the more dangerous, as it'll be them finding their ways to into positions of power without our knowledge and thus having influence over things any sane person would want them having no influence over. I'm sure if Hitler would have advertised his intentions for the final solution and all the other stuff he got upto in his closet, the people of Germany would have really rallied behind him eh! Wonder why it was all kept a secret. (And no to anyone moronic enough to think I'm making a direct comparison between Hitler and Nigel Farrage, I am not, and you must be an idiot.)

Don't stop the Funk!

Uft you're no wrong at all there mate. Had the misfortune of growing up in London so always got stick for being Irish and Scottish It's a shame people can't leave the sectarian crap in the past. Glasgow is getting better, it all seems to have turned into friendly banter. If Celtic and Rangers can manage that then theres some hope left in the world eh!

It's hard to tell without knowing the brands of the l119 parts or the internals of the gun. The front sight issue is something I encountered when building my l119. I used a G&P and the Warlord Tactical Barrel set was designed for a Tokyo Marui Rail, hence the holes were out of place due to the rails being difference lengths. You could fill the holes in the barrel will miliput and make new ones, it was my plan to do that.

Whilst that's true, we did remain a dominion, the Balfour Treaty of 1926 recognised us aswell as all the other dominons of the British empire as autonomoous, not to patronise you mate as I'm fully aware you'll know what it means because I can tell you're an intelligent bloke, but for the sake of those who dont know: 1. Government. self-governing; independent; subject to its own laws only. pertaining to an autonomy, or a self-governing community. 2. having autonomy; not subject to control from outside; independent: That'd still mean two years "independent" and using the pound Anyway we could throw arguements back and forth till the end of time, we're just using up server space eh lol! My family's from S. Armargh and Donegal.

How much is that going to set you back Geoff? I've thought about buying an old Saracen or ferret lol. My dream car is a Bentley GT continental.

Wrong Meme James. Learn the Meme's if you're going to use them

If the Free state was formed in '22 , and the punt wasn't introduced until '28 , thats 6 years using the pound, gave us enough time to negotiate a deal to peg ourselves to the pound. I'm not trying to cause any more friction here, just explain that it would have been possible. If the Irish and the British could negotiate that THEN, in context with what had been happening, I see no reason why an Independent Scotland and the remainder of the UK couldn't come to a similar agreement under the relatively less militarized and hate filled atmosphere of 2015.

Just to say, the RoI did okay with the pound following their succession from the UK, and then even better with the Punt which was pegged to the pound. It was the Euro that sent things tits up. According to the act of Union England and Scotland are equal partners, making the pound as much Scotland's as Englands. It would be the ultimate irony to see the Bank of England deny Scotland use of the pound considering a Scotsman was one of the founders of it. Scotland has always voted predominatly Labour, after their piss poor show post-referendum they've effectively given every seat they ever held over to the SNP. I'll leave this arguement now as I'm sick of the superiority complexes everyone is showing. We're all humans, and all equal - what the idiots at the top say means nothing. To para-phrase game of thrones " Power doesn't exist. It is but a shadow on the wall, and a very small man can cast a very large shadow". They only have power because we give it to them, we're governed by consent. People need to remember that, if we want revolution in the way things are done politically in this country we need to get up off our sofas, take a break from watching corrie or whatever mind numbing bollocks is on the telly and campaign or fight for what we want. Sitting on an airsoft forum ranting and raving, bickering with each other like a 13 year old girl on a facebook status serves no benefit to anyone. An no - to anyone mentally challenged enough to think that was directed at rousing a Scottish rebellion, it was directed at everyone. We'll have to work together and get over your feeling of difference towards people on the other side of an imaginary line formed hundreds of years ago. The borders shifted a lot, Edinburgh was the capital of an English kingdom, as was Glasgow the capital of a Welsh kingdom, and also part of an Irish one. We're all of the same land, start f*cking acting like it instead of succumbing to the imaginary boundaries implaced on you by the shadows on the wall who want to maintain their power over you. The lines wouldn't exist if it wasn't for King's to show everyone else how big their manhood is by showing how far they've raped and pillaged.

Agreed. Best to drop it, people either side of the border will never understand the other fully. I was on the bus pre-referendum and heard some 14 year old kids talking about the referendum, they all said, and agreed, now this is a quote "Well We've owned Scotland longer than we've owned Wales, we should just let Wales go and keep Scotland" lol. It's an arguement that will never be won, I argued with my whole college for 2 years straight about it and none of them understood any of the politics enough to say anything apart from "Yeah but (insert quote they dont fully understand and have repeated 10 times in the last hour)" I think my suggestion earlier on about how we all should we governed would make a lot more sense. Regardless, we're together and we should be working together to make sure we're all happy. Lets hope whichever twat gets in this year is better for us all than the last two.

SD They don't do A levels back in Scotland. My pal is 17 and in University, if you have the potential you can forgoe all that crap. I've never seen the point in A levels.

I was defending the Tower at TWA by myself one lunch time game (informal, few of us playing for fun) and I was sat down on the floor of it, moved foward to a kneel and instrinctively shot a guy in the chest from about 35m before I managed to line my sights up. Later in the same game I managed to get someone at a bit further of a distance with my 2.5 TM python, was pure luck that the gun curved the bb up at the critical moment and instead of going straight into the ground infront of him, it caught him in the belly. I was feeling pretty invincbile, giving everyone aggro trying to take the power but then the awesome/honourable bit occurred. One guy gave another taller gent a boost by letting him stand on his shoulders, and he aimed over the side and shot me just once in the back. Not only could he have easilly just lit me up or blind fired, he also had frags on him and could of easilly took me out with one of those, but let forgoe that experience

If England wanted to, there's no reason a pro-English indy part couldn't appear and vote for that, though it would be ironic because it was England that formed the UK by beating the rest of us into submission I don't think that being Pro-English is racist, infact I'd encourage everyone to be patriotic of where they were from. I think the problem lies in that the British public get put second by the government in aide of keeping up appearances. For example I live in London, and I think not being able to fly an English flag or Union jack at your house because it's "racially insensitive" is absoulute bollocks. If people dislike England and find the flag offensive, why seek asylum here out of all the other countries in Europe? It's ridiculous and I know that could border on the line of sounding Racist, but to hell with political correctness, the government is too soft, and its things like that which breed racial hatred. The natives begin to resent immigrants for being catered to too much in their eyes, and the immigrants begin to hate the natives for hating them. I'm not 100% pro indy. In my opinion, I think all of the 4 states in the UK should have "independence" to have their own national identity and govern their own affairs, I'd even go as far to say perhaps even regional government such as the midlands, south west etc. would be a better idea. We're not having to unite to conquer the whole world anymore, we need to focus on improving our lives here where we live. There's no reason we couldn't exist indepently like this but form a coalition, trading with each other, defending each other. Like a miniature EU or NATO but with more power delecated to the governments of each country. We'll never be able to escape from the fact we're joined as an Island , and I dont think we need to. Bigots are stuck in the past, the last time we went to war with each other, was hundreds of years ago. We forget we are all people, and we all just want to live nice lives. A representational government is never going to be truely representative of the majority the way things are, scattered votes up and down the country combine and get a party in, then that party governs all of us, including those of us that didn't vote for that party. If Scotland voted on who governed Scotland, England on who governened England and so on, then that would better represent the people of that country, as we all have different needs and problems. That said, England is a big country and even Regional government would be fairer, the people in the Midlands have different lives and needs to people living in London. Government is supposed to be of the people, by the people and for the people - In what sense that true today? Private school boys are elected with no sense of what real people's lives are like - and the reason government will never exist as I have suggested above is that the people at the top with power, want to keep the power, why on earth would they agree to sharing it, to benefit the people? I'll grow gills and repopulate Alantis with a Mermaid equivalent of Jennifer Lawrence before they do that.

Everyone who wants an independent Scotland is a Provisional or a Jacobite, just depends if you're Catholic or Protestant. I'm joking of course, wanting to be independent doesn't make us anti English, remember Wales and Northern Ireland too? They don't seem to think we have a vendetta against them lol. We're not anti anyone, just pro-Scot.
