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.

Don't forget the export of financial services, including insurance.

Dil - if sylvia hermon is your mp, as assuredly she must be as the only indie mp, then your comment that without her, labour would win the north down seat hands down (sorry!) every time, does look remotely correct - or is ulster unionist synonymous with labour?


No , it reverted to Labour at the last election you've got the wrong constituency. Read this then tell me my vote counts :-)


"Until 2005, the constituency was considered one of the safest Labour seats in the country. In the 1983 and 1992 general elections, it was Labour's safest seat. The Conservative Party and Liberal Democrats have both been very weak in the seat. Neither has won 10% of the vote since 1987 and the Conservatives have never achieved one eighth of the total votes cast. In 2005 the Liberal Democrats received their lowest share of the vote in the United Kingdom and the Conservatives their second lowest, and both lost their deposits, though this particular election saw unusual circumstances.

The seat came to prominence at the 2005 general election when the Labour Welsh Assembly Member Peter Law ran as an independent and won the seat. He had resigned from the Labour Party in protest at the imposition of an all-women candidates' shortlist following the retirement of incumbent MP Llew Smith, and overturned a 19,313 (60%) Labour majority with a significant 9,121 (25%) majority. In 2006 the Labour Party decided not to require an all-women shortlist at the next general election.

Law died of a brain tumour on 25 April 2006, prompting a by-election in the seat on 29 June. Labour failed to regain the seat as Law's former campaign manager, Dai Davies, was elected to replace him.

In the 2010 general election, Labour candidate Nick Smith gained the seat with a 29.2% swing from Independent back to Labour; it became one of only three seats Labour gained in that election. The seat was still notable as one of the few where an Independent candidate kept their deposit or pushed one of the main parties into fourth place."

Euro Area Balance of Trade

Main trading partners are the United Kingdom (12 percent of total exports and 10 percent of imports) and the United States (13 percent of exports and 6 percent of imports).

Rearrange these words - smell up and wake coffee the. Methinks Angie Baby needs us more than we need the sauerkraut.

cynic , here are the recent parliamentry election results ... hardly worth voting is it.


In 2011 Labour and the Independent (ex Labour) polled 72.3% , Libs 10.1% , Cons 7% , Plaid 4.1% , BNP 3.7%.

In the 2006 bye-election Labour and Independent 83.2% , Plaid 6.5% , Libs 5.4% , Cons 3.7%.

2005 general election , Labour and Independent 90.5% , Libs 4.3% , Plaid 2.4% , Cons 2.3%.

2001 general election , Labour 72% , Plaid 11.2% , Libs 9.3% , Cons 7.5%.

1997 general election , Labour 79.5% , Libs 8.7% , Cons 6.6% , Plaid 5.2%.

What if Scotland vote to go it alone ?

That won't do the Tories any harm , though I can't see it happening.

Dil - if you don't vote at least for the least worst as you see it, then you'll keep repeating the "problem"

I always vote , think it was BNP last time cos they promised to throw all the English out of Wales :-)

Did they promise to do anything about the inbred sheepsh@ggers?

We shag them you eat them :-)

Dil,

Now don't be mean, we can always save an old ram for Hilary.

Pity the ram though.

.... and they wonder why we export so much of the stuff :-)

For a moment I thought it was Hays,

And then I realised this was Manuel looking for the Hill.

Catastrophic failings by police and social services allowed a child sex ring to sexually torture girls as young as 11 for eight years.

Victims repeatedly told officers they had been raped or abused by the vicious and ‘medieval’ predators – but no action was taken.

Last night – after the abusers were convicted at the Old Bailey – the police and social services apologised for failing to answer the girls’ desperate pleas for help.

But Sara Thornton, chief constable of Thames Valley Police since 2007, refused to acknowledge calls for her to resign this morning.


The gang groomed more than 50 vulnerable youngsters before selling them for sex around the country.



Asian gangs all over the uk raping and molesting young children

Horrific ordeal of 'Girl Three' who was raped at 11, injected with heroin, branded with a hairpin and sold for sex at £600 an hour

Lord Mandelson has attacked Ed Miliband's attempt to rebrand Labour as the "One Nation" party.

Asked if it was a sufficiently robust platform to win the next election, the Labour peer said: "Well, patently not."

He said Labour had to show it was willing to make "tough" spending decisions, otherwise ex-Tory voters "will find it very difficult to vote Labour".

Lord Mandelson also attacked Mr Miliband's claim that Labour had made it easier for people from working class backgrounds to be selected as candidates, saying it was wrong to conflate working class candidates with trade union officials.

He said "too many" selections for European of Westminster parliament candidates were being put in the hands of "one union at worst, a couple of unions at best, orchestrated by a cabal of NEC members."

these are crimes that are real and affect ever family
and it is being pushed under the carpet .
it is time to take action big time and deport these scum

most people, other than village idiot, are well aware that this type of abuse is spread across all races and ethnic groups and of course, many if not most will be uk citizens and even born here

so to where will you deport that very large group?
to the isle of wight perhaps?
