Bulletguy Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 Quelle surprise! Furloughed and unemployed people are being urged to ‘pick for Britain’ as the coronavirus crisis creates a shortage of migrant workers to harvest crops. Come help pick for Britain to feed the nation! Today’s announcement comes after MPs were warned quarantine restrictions for overseas visitors would lead to a shortage of workers to harvest fields and pick fruit. Time for Brexiteers to step up to the plate and get working!! :D https://tinyurl.com/y7jc7lxu https://pickforbritain.org.uk/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Birdbrain Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 Think the title of the thread given who the OP is and who's responded should be 'Pick on Britain' ... Lets be honest thats been a lifelong habit for the Brit haters ... Sad people ... Suns out , get outside and take in some fresh air ... When I get back later I will be looking into helping locally if possible , instead of hating and using a pandemic to stir more hate why not try to help in challenging times or is helping too much to ask ???

Lets be honest thats been a lifelong habit for the Brit haters ... Your dyslexia playing up again Antony? :-S It's quite simple, i'll explain. "Pick for Britain" is the title chosen by the website (see op where it's linked). Now, if you deem that to be 'Brit hate' (your words) you need to contact the website owners and tell them. While you're at it you should have a word with that 'Brit hater' Charlie for telling the peasants to "Pick for Britain". (lol) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pelmetman Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 Oh dear yet another thread started by our resident UK Hater 8-) ...........

Bulletguy Posted May 20, 2020 Author Share Posted May 20, 2020 pelmetman - 2020-05-20 3:51 PM Oh dear yet another thread started by our resident UK Hater 8-) ........... We know you're influenced by your echo chamber pal Antony but these wails of 'hater' have become tedious now Pelmet and you really need to find a new buzzword, preferably a bit more grown up if you can manage that. Where is the 'hate' you speak of in posting the registered website "Pick for Britain" and a media report about it? I assume in your strange little parallel universe this must also make Prince Charles a 'UK hater' too? Incidentally a few weeks ago you asked about copyright of the avatar i use, needing me to point out to you that photographs of ammunition are freely available via Google images where the majority have no copyright. This cannot be said for the photoshopped image you've been posting on here which originated from Brian Kirbys photograph, which by law gives him the ownership (copyright) of that photograph you've used. Have you asked his permission to use his photograph and alter it....i don't think you have have you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for strawberries , given your diet I think any fruit and veg would bring you out in a severe rash , nappy rash again prolly Silly Billy! I never said I had been helping British Producers by picking stuff. Do I look like the sort of person who would get my hands dirty doing manual labour? (lol) Doesn't mean I haven't been doing my bit though. I find it offensive that you firstly refer to me as a cripple and secondly that you assume because I am somewhat rotund I live on a diet of Kebabs and I am some kind of Fruit and Veg Dodger. Some of us just get on with helping the nation get back on its feet and do not like to talk about it or make a fuss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
