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.

Cynic..........It doesnt matter I dont need an apology. Im a meek type of guy.

you, you're downright aggressive!

i have no problem at all in apologising, and i fully concur that it's absolutely nuts to exclude those key items even from "core CPI" whatever that may be, though perhaps it is the RPI we should be more concerned with, which apparently does include those items



by the way, orange juice and lemonade at lunchtime with no ice :-) .... and nor did i post or even allude or link muppets to CPI

cynic
I made a comment about the Battle of the Muppets. It was made about the Clegg vs Farage debate this evening..

What a pair of muppets they were. Nothing sensible said by either.

Muppets?

maybe, but at least they had the bottle to fight it out on live tv, unlike the other two.


anyway, opinion says Farage won it by a whisker.



Call me Dave and the lesser spotted Millibandus will not be queueing up for a big one, cos either of the two tonight would wipe the floor with the pair of them.

FARAGE won on points.

POLL SHOWS

You Gov Poll.


57% to Farage 36% to Clegg

FARAGE Lands a knock out blow.

Look out Tory Boys.

That's a big win for Farage, I'm surprised, cos Nick is slick.

Official result of poll....You Gov Poll

Guido Fawkes ‏@GuidoFawkes
Yougov/Sun: Farage 57% – 36% Clegg

Hays Hays Hays Hays.........

a big kick in the goolies for the Tories.

Millys going to nos 10, Millys going to nos 10, Millys going to nos 10 dar ra ra ra dar ra ra ra.

Millibandus is in the doo doo, the consensus is for a real referendum.

MaX do me a favour and pass on the result to Hays.

I will if I see him gf, but I suspect he will have the vapours after that little show.

If Labour win the 2015 election which looks likely 2017 will just be an idea on a memo.

LOL yep max. Hes probably hiding under the bed.

SKY News viewers also give Farage the victory by at least 2-1.

Tories beware.

With all your problems, I am sure you have got used to apologising!

Could be water of a ducky's back!

Thought Clegg to be a Liberal Democrat, hey ho

The poll shown on Sky had Farage winning the debate. That doesn't mean that much. Firstly, you are only counting people who watched the debate. That group is a self selected group and not necessarily representative of the general population's view on the EU. Recent polls show a clear majority for a vote for IN after getting a better deal with a looser connection to Europe.

It is likely that the dominant group watching the debate was UKIP supporters. That will skew the results. What the poll says is that of the people who watched the debate, there was a slight majority who want to leave the EU.

But there is no "better deal with a looser connection to Europe"


That's been squashed by any number of €uroburgers, there is simply no other option available than to leave, there is no renegotiation possible.


Cast Iron Dave is trying to blow smoke up everyones ass, and he is failing, cos we've heard it all before.

Millibum is ducking the question as well, and even nooer labour will pay for it.

Nick at least, to his credit, is honest about the €uro question, he's all for IN But he'll be off to €uroland after the next election anyway.

There is quite a bit of pressure for renegotiation from other countries such as Denmark. I think there will be room for changes to the rules. If not then the vote would go against staying in. The reality is that voting for UKIP cannot get us out of Europe whatever Farage may say. The whole idea of voting for UKIP is absurd. What would be the point? Labour won't give anyone a vote. The Conservatives will.
