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.

Miliband won't break up the City. We wouldn't dare because of the harm it would do. Labour have always blustered about the City, but have never done anything. The City would not cooperate and they would be stuffed. The City works very well and only an idiot would tamper with it.

ANOTHER STUPID LABOUR POLICY

Tories already talking about copying Labours Banking plans.

Where have we heard about that before in the last 2 months!!!!!!!!!

U TURN TORIES

Hays did you have one of them designer stick on pony tails back then......RODNEYYYYYYY

Nobody will copy Labour's banking plans. Even Vince Cable was complaining about them today.

sticky - i think you're just owning up to being a tight-wad! :-)

miliband and the banks
it seems even his own team think it's not too bright a threat either ...... "the party's own shadow business secrtary admitted taxpayers would lose out ..... experts warned that it could trigger a repeat of the doomed attempt by the Co-op to take over hundreds of Lloyds branches"

certain elements here incessantly lambast DC + GO, not that it is not sometimes warranted, but a bit of objective reflection (fossy is totally incapable of such, so ignore him) may well lead to the conclusion that EM and his merry men scarcely represent a troop of knights in shining armour ..... more like a (similar) bunch of Don Quixote and Sancho Panzas

i think the pair of them swap roles regularly, each trying to outdo the other in making asinine comment and ridiculous promises

Interesting to see who or what the torrids will lick next.

I wonder if someone can give an idea about this: Should someone who lives abroad and is a director of a dormant company should fill tax return?

It is turning out to be quite embarrassing for Labour that one of the executive producers of Benefits Street is a Birmingham Labour activist.

ahoj - ask your accountant; simples

Thank you Cynic!

assuming 35596 is accurate, then i find it very amusing

i haven't watched the prog and do not intend to, but if Julia Higginbottom really is closely involved with the production and is also a left-wing labour activist, then you can expect a deafening silence to ensue from certain quarters

it would be jolly to hear a plaintive bleat from Ms JH of "Infamy! Infamy! They've all got it in for me!"

Italy nun: 'I had no idea I was pregnant' after giving birth to baby boy

Saturday 18 January 2014



A nun has given birth in Italy after being rushed from her convent to hospital earlier this week with severe stomach cramps.

The woman, originally from El Salvador, said she had no idea she was pregnant after giving birth to a baby boy on Wednesday, local media have reported.

"I did not know I was pregnant. I only felt a stomach pain," Italian news agency ANSA quoted her as saying.

It's a miracle! Another immaculate conception.

This is the type of person you will get with UKIP

UKIP councillor blames storms and floods on gay marriage

A UKIP councillor has blamed the recent storms and heavy floods across Britain on the Government's decision to legalise gay marriage.

David Silvester said the Prime Minister had acted "arrogantly against the Gospel".

In a letter to his local paper he said he had warned David Cameron the legislation would result in "disaster".

UKIP said Mr Silvester's views were "not the party's belief" but defended his right to state his opinions.

He added: "I wrote to David Cameron in April 2012 to warn him that disasters would accompany the passage of his same-sex marriage bill.

"But he went ahead despite a 600,000-signature petition by concerned Christians and more than half of his own parliamentary party saying that he should not do so."

He then went to on blame the Prime Minister for the bad weather:

"It is his fault that large swathes of the nation have been afflicted by storms and floods."

i can't believe it! ...... he actually wrote this nonsense to the local paper .... talk about making a total laughing stock of yourself
i wonder if he'll get re-elected?
