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.

answer .....
The German adjusted jobless rate fell to 6.8% from 6.9% in November, the Federal Labour Office said.
UK is currently 7.7% which is very similar to USA

French numbers are hidden (wonder why!!), but admitted to be at their highest for 14 years

it does of course depend on how the numbers are calculated .,... for sure, each country manipulates as far as possible to suit the occasion

I am lisrening to Milkiband waffle on the news. No wonder he is unelectable.

Haystack, that's true but which of the rest of them is electable?

Hays,

W/see.

You are backing a loser.

What are the odds at the moment for a Labour controlled government?

The cabinet are a bunch of l. U-turn losers who have fallen out of the saddle and been suck up Murdoch's U-bend.

At PMQ Cameron resembles a blustering, smug second hand car dealer.

Er...

Horsemeat scandal: Bute found in eight horse carcasses

Eight horses, killed in the UK, tested positive for the painkiller bute and six may have entered the food chain in France, the Food Standards Agency said.

Some 206 carcasses were tested, with eight found to contain phenylbutazone.

Interesting that polls show Labour and Conservatives neck and neck on economic skills.

that's the funniest for a while! LOL

hays,

Is it true that when Cameron goes riding nowadays that he gets on Rebecca's horse backwards, in order not to confuse the hunt with his U-turns.

Bag, cat, out of

Hmmmm - Miliband Bounced Into Speech Policy U-Turn

He heard Cameron had fallen off his horse again.

Talking of which... PMQs: Miliband falls off the horse

Skinner, 8-)

I thought these remarks pertinent:

"Cameron, before executing the Eton Giggle (ruddy cheeks contorted into a winning smile, dead behind the eyes, finger on the ‘Release the Hounds’ button) at a few horsemeat jokes – is the PM sure he’s not speaking “100% bull”, isn’t the coalition an example of “misleading labelling”"

I think I will stick to the market for a while. Has is turned??

I heard that - even Cameron laughed.

"Shadow chancellor Ed Balls said both he and Ed Miliband had raised objections to the 10p move when they were members of the cabinet at the time.

Asked on the Daily Politics whether it was a firm manifesto commitment, Mr Balls said they could not write their manifesto now, but the changes were something "we want to do... intend to do... plan to do" if the party gets into power after the next election."

You can see why they call him the panda
