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.

gold I am a tory by nature .and have with all my family and many friends voted conservative we will not vote for them with these idiots at the helm .

the labour party will get in by a clear majority
I do not want a lab win but would sooner them than the shit now in charge

Chris - the second part of your last post - Yoda? :-)

If cameroon gets his way Hilary, he'll blow more of your money than you can ever save.

As suggested above, let the arabs sort it out, after all they have all the shiny weapons that money can buy.

hilary - I agree, when a professional footballer can earn 300k a week why do we bother about minor issues? Rooney can't play because he's got a couple of stitches in his head - poor didums - and yet the British women's hockey captain managed to keep playing with a broken jaw during the Olympics.

There was a Labour spokesman on BBC TV News just now wriggling and doing a semi aboutfave. He said that Labour did not rule our a strike etc etc. They can see where their bad decision is leading.

And Doc Martin's back on the box tonight.

barmy backed down like the yanks always do if the uk will not take the lead .
barmy is a spineless joke

DAVID DAVIES is the man to run the uk

DUBAI (Reuters) - Former Iranian President Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani said the Syrian government, a strong ally of Tehran, had carried out chemical weapons attacks against its own people, the semi-official Iranian Labour News Agency reported on Sunday.

Akbar is a spineless person who ran away is views are worthless . a coward

hay so why are the ARAB league not going to fight to free Syria but seat on the fence
spineless or what . talk is cheap words mean nothing without action

He didn't run away. He is still chairman of an Iranian counci.

so why is he not saying iran should take action .words are cheap mean nothing only action speaks

Because Iran are Syria's ally. It is surprising that he has said anything. The official Iran news service reported his remarks and later edited them to remove the cause being Syria.

as I said talk and words mean fcuk all only action counts .
the ARAB league spineless and want Christians to fight for them
then get stabbed in the back .

Hays,

I would like to use one of Manuel's favourite words, but won't, but will think you are becoming one.


"A better option would be Miliband eating humble pie and asking for a vote. If there is another chemical attack the Labour will find itself on the wrong side of history and will incur a lot of abuse."

The coalition is said to have a working majority (how many work I don't know).

If Cameron can't organise himself and his legion of campfollowers to pass a bill as important as what you was presented points to his "bloody" incompetence and trying to blame others for an obvious hypocrisy.

His own party distrust him and probably see him as a lying hypocrit and self advancing.

To taken any war or "military strategy" with the present incumbent of No 10 is seen by parliament and the country to be a folly.

To enter any partnership with him with the view of intervening in any more hazardous than crossing the road would be maddness.

He is incompetent and blown it.


He hasn't got control of the "tools" thank god nor the wit to use them to use them appropriately if he had.

He has no forward plan of how to deal with the consequences of any military actions, or doesn't even know what his "partners" are proposing.

He is disaster and should be retired.


-------

It is said that a democracy should be ruled by the "will" of the majority of the people. In this case it seems, for good or bad to have been.

Cameron and the present elitist club surrounding him fell into the trap of taking parliament for granted and have been hoisted with their own petard.

The public know it, and so do you.

Hils - spot on, what could be more important? Hazard is your best player, build a team around him and the special one will shine :O)

My God, Fred talking sense now there is a first. Don't hold your breath wont last :O)

Taken from Wicky

On Monday, August 6, 1945, at 8:15 a.m., the Atomic Bomb "Little Boy" was dropped on Hiroshima by an American B-29 bomber, the Enola Gay, flown by Paul Tibbets,[15] directly killing an estimated 80,000 people. By the end of the year, injury and radiation brought total casualties to 90,000–140,000.[16] The population before the bombing was around 340,000 to 350,000. Approximately 69% of the city's buildings were completely destroyed, and another 7% severely damaged.

What is sticking in the throat of many observers is that subsequent to the above the major powers have held onto the WMDs. ie Britain, Russia, China, America, France and a few other smaller forces including ISRAEL, while decrying the numerically less potent Chemical Warfare of less affluent nations.

The major reasons for holding them is said to be "for power and influence" or "power and control".

Personally, I would like to see Assad removed from the scene and ceremonially hung, and replaced by a more congenial government to the Syrians as a whole.

But, I cannot see how attempting to smack the arse of "psychopath" such as Assad is, will remove him and his immediate supporters from powere or bring him to "justice".

However, I can see how a number of "self righteous" missile strikes will kill a disproportionate number of innocent people.

Miliband discussed the motion with Cameron and had it altered before the vote. Miliban assured Cameron that he would support the motion, which did not commit the UK to a strike on Syria and would have required a further vote. When it came to the vote he changed his mind, partly because of political opportunism and partly because he wasn't sure he could carry his party with him. All in all it was a disgraceful performance by Miliband.
