While Ireland still has to wait another six days for a pricey pint without a €9 meal to go with it over in Blighty Dishi Rishi and Timbo Spoons are working their magic to get pubs busy again.
Although personally I’d pay a tad more and go for the Abbott.

All right Mr Inferiority Complex, your need to talk in this way is quite interesting. You said recently you like Kayleigh McEnany. Yea she fits your bill quite nicely, cherry picking and telling blatant lies e.g. she is going on about the US having the lowest mortality rate from the virus in the world, way lower than countries in Europe, the US has the fourth highest rate in the world!
As regards you, would you like to comment on yet another shocking week of crime in your dear England? You disgracefully blamed it on black immigrants in one of your posts, would you like to comment on what had happened in Doncaster recently so old boy?
And what about your pal Bozo’s disgraceful comments on carer homes, this from a man as you put it “with the human touch” Come on old boy stop cherry picking and answer some basic questions.
Charlie
True. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a bar with less atmosphere. Having said that, almost every bar in the UK is full of misery and neon slot machines.
Charger Salmons
What’s this – you’ve been in every single Wetherspoons ?
I know I like a gargle or two but I reckon you need immediate help for your problem squire.
Heh x 900
Joe F
Yea old boy just as I thought no answer to some simple questions. Well I’ll just keep doing my man marking job then.
Charlie
There’s a typically English decor template used for every Weatherspoons. It’s referred to as ‘Cheap n miserable’.
The Spoons employs 43,000 people.
You’ll always find the occasional moaning slacker in a company that size.
I’ve no doubt you’re the type of person to whine about any great business success story such as the fabulous Ryanair.
Fact is Timbo is opening up and running successful Irish pubs just as the industry here thinks they’ll be closing down at a rapid rate of knots.
Charlie
“Occasional moaning slacker” Ahaaa…the entire nation moans endlessly and feeds upon it. The whining, screaming, depressing daily diet of Eastenders, Coronation St etc is exactly what the regular Englander craves and the media know their audience.
Tommy, it’s ingrained within the culture of the most miserable nation on Earth.
Charger Salmons
Currently home to lots of Irish-born people.

Charger Salmons character is by one of those ‘Left wing’ comics who never took a mortgage because they can afford not to do so.
They will never be homeless nor anywhere near it.
Ins’t that right Niall ?
Brother Barnabas
some of charger’s loyal readers may be wondering what’s brought on this deviation from all-things-Brexit-and-Johnson-related to musings on the price of a pint
truth, though, it’s not a deviation at all
as has been noted:
“football, beer, and above all gambling filled up the horizon of their minds. to keep them in control was not difficult”
it’s not hard to pull the wool over the little englanders’ eyes
Charger Salmons
What Brother fails to mention is that Ireland was part of Orwell’s Oceania continent envisaged in 1984.
Perhaps that’s why Wetherspoons is expanding its empire here but, naturally, still charging higher prices than on the mainland.
Timbo didn’t get to be a multi-millionaire by accident …
Brother Barnabas
not so, charger
in fact, he very explicitly acknowledged the fundamental differences between us. as an example, on celtic nationalism:
“Its motive force is a belief in the past and future greatness of the Celtic peoples… the Celt is spiritually superior to the Saxon — simpler, more creative, less vulgar, less snobbish, etc. — but the usual power hunger is there under the surface”
more creative, less vulgar, less snobbish…. he knew his stuff did old Eric
Charger Salmons
Dearie me Brother.
You’re quoting selectively again and leaving out the juicy bits.
Here ya go.
“Its motive force is a belief in the past and future greatness of the Celtic peoples, and it has a strong tinge of racialism. The Celt is supposed to be spiritually superior to the Saxon — simpler, more creative, less vulgar, less snobbish, etc. — but the usual power hunger is there under the surface. One symptom of it is the delusion that Eire, Scotland or even Wales could preserve its independence unaided and owes nothing to British protection.”
For that sorry attempt to hide from the truth you get today’s first appearance in the WINKY-WOOometer.
Heh x 10/10.
Brother Barnabas
you’re quoting from the entirely discredited 1st edition

For your consideration.
” The Irish will soon learn that if your economy is ruled from California, your society will start to look like California, a nowhere of the very rich and very poor, but without the sunshine. ”
+ 1 regarding this observation in that article: “Ireland is uniquely vulnerable to all of this [woke cultural influence] as a nation without a national economic base, wholly reliant on the whim and will of aggressively ideological multinationals temporarily parked there for tax purposes.”
Ireland’s industrial revolution from the game-changing 1960s was predominantly FDI as the eminently successful Industrial Development Authority invited foreign industrialists to set up in Eire. Indigenous industries (mostly semi-state enterprises) like the Sugar Company with its 4 factories, Irish shipping, the Ford motor factory in Cork, shoe manufacturers and other enterprises were wound down, partly due to EEC single market competition.
We still have some indigenous industries derived from agriculture, but US and other companies have been buying substantial shares, which may affect future decisions about ‘downsizing’ measures. Do twentysomethings in Denmark, Norway or the Netherlands demonstrate an aptitude for thinking independently of thought centres like California and New York?
Charger Salmons
I fear your questions are a tad complex for most of the commentators on here.
They’ve grown up only knowing one thing and that’s to feel comfortable in being told what to do.
Between them the EU and American multi-nationals have them in a vice-like grip.

Interesting tweet re:masks by the BBC’s UK correspondent who is a medically trained journalist.
‘We had been told by various sources WHO committee reviewing the evidence had not backed masks but they recommended them due to political lobbying. This point was put to WHO who did not deny.’
Just wondering old boy, if England is such a great place according to you, and Ireland has all these problems you keep bleating on about, why are you living in Ireland so old boy?
dav
it’s a troll, every response to said trolling adds an extra stain for his mumsy to scrub out before the next undie wash.

He may do trolling in the main, but this new information from BBC’s medical correspondent is nothing to do with trolling. On the contrary it has extremely serious implications on a worldwide scale and should be further investigated.
Johnson flubbed the UK pandemic response so now to pwn the Irish libs you have to lament lots of Irish people not dying. You’ll give yourself whiplash one of these days.
Charger Salmons
But you live in a country which has decreed a €9 meal with a pint will help prevent the spread of a virulent virus more than if you just drank a pint on its own.
