Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

GF.

Are you referring to Benny Hill’s reincarnation?

Hays,

I have sympathy for the idea of benefits going to what the majority would consider the "necessities" of life and not into "drugs, tobacco and alcohol", but it won't work and the result will be stigmatisation of another group in society.

The latter is what this government seems hell bent on.

Isn't the Bullingdon Club a night club for delinquents in a peripheral town.

The club is not the problem, but its membership which seems to be for inferior "types" of adolescents, who never grow up seem to enjoy wrecking restaurants and pubs, doing little of use and some end up continue their behaviour by wrecking a country.

Wait on a minute havent we a duty under the coalition to pay for our own health costs if we are overweight?.

What about Ed Balls, he is getting pretty cubby?

Is the pickle saluting the leader?

Or is the leader looking for a safe haven for both of them.

You wan rice wiv that - Coventry taxi maker LTI sold to Chinese firm Geely for £11.4m

The company has acquired the "business and the principal assets" of Manganese Bronze Holdings (MBH), the manufacturer of the London cabs.

LTI in Coventry went into administration in October with 99 out of its 176 workers losing their jobs.

The deal, which it said will safeguard production in the UK, was agreed with administrators Pricewaterhouse Coopers.

Bit rich tho haystacks that guy telling unemployed people they can only have basic neccesities whilst at the same time hes leading life to the full. What happened to setting an example. !.

"David Cameron's EU speech did little to win new support for Tories, poll finds
Poll conducted by Lord Ashcroft gives Labour 38% support, five points ahead of Tories, and shows pro-EU sentiments bolstered

David Cameron's high-profile speech on Europe has cheered Conservative supporters, but done little to improve the party's chances of success at the next general election, according to polling conducted by the major Tory donor Lord Ashcroft.

The peer, who was Conservative deputy chairman until 2010, said Cameron's promise of an in-out referendum following renegotiation of the UK's EU membership after the 2015 election "has not unleashed a desire for an overall Conservative majority".
In fact the renewed debate about Britain and the EU in advance of the high-profile speech appears to have bolstered pro-European sentiments, with those saying they feel positive about British membership increasing from 18% to 22% and those thinking the UK would be better off out falling from 34% to 26%.

Ashcroft's poll – in common with most of those taken since last week's speech – showed a small increase in support for the Tories to 33%, but Labour remain in the lead on 38% with the Liberal Democrats on 11%. The UK Independence party (Ukip), which is committed to the UK's withdrawal from the EU, is on 9%

It is about people not wasting money on booze and drugs. Looks like a good idea. They might spend the money on feeding their hords of kids.

Hugely embarrassing for Cameron that he has had to have difference between borrowing and debt explained to him

And this just posted.....

http://www.labour.org.uk/difference-between-borrowing-and-debt,2013-02-01

I suspect that Cameron understands the difference as he got a 'first' in PPE at Oxford. The same subject as Andrew Dilnot studied also at Oxford,

Was that PPE or PE.?

He must have been crammed, as he has certainly been programmed.

Of course the link is to the Labour Party web site. In fact they are wrong. The letter is not pointing out the difference between borrowing and debt. It is attempting to define the terms. Try reading the original letter.

Telling porkies to the electorate. Cameron should be forced to go on TV and issue a sincere apology, like you get in newspapers these days.

The letter is exactly the same word for word. It just seeks to define the terms used. More nonsense!

Gold finger
You are just posting rubbish.

GF,

Cameron couldn't issue a sincere apology.

He doesn't know what sincerity is.

He is another poser and and light weight.

I like the way he is floating around in the Middle East to avoid the stalking horse burgers at home.

He appears to be going down a bomb.

Haystack YOU ARE rubbish, scum in fact after your post 20868. Sums up the nasty piece of work you are. Get a life. FILTERED
