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.

Boris Johnson says he would campaign to pull Britain out of the EU in referendum



Remarks show on this issue London's Mayor is closer to the Tory right, who are determined to get out of the EU, than David Cameron

Boris Johnson has declared that he would campaign to pull Britain out of the EU in a referendum if David Cameron's attempts to negotiate a new deal for Britain in Europe failed.

There would be no point in negotiating for a change of rules in the EU unless the government was serious about being prepared to pull out "and I would be willing to say that," he argued.

His remarks show that on this issue London's Mayor is closer to the Tory right, who are determined to get out of the EU, than David Cameron, who warned earlier in this year against the "pessimists" who refuse to believe that the EU can reform.

The Mayor also expressed bemusement at the rise of UKIP, which he described as the Conservative Party’s 'doppelganger' because, he claimed, they shared identical beliefs. His remarks were very different from how David Cameron described UKIP members eight years ago - as "fruitcakes, loonies and closet racists."

No no no £ 10,000 bet or more you name the price.

Come on chicken.

Come on Doodlethug Im waiting.

Make it £50,000 bet.

And you have to prove you lost the money none of this pooling together.

I'll bet you a pint gf, that Boris is after Dave's job.

You on?

LOL........ NO CHANCE. I know my winners and Doodlebug does aswel.

Boris's sister once said that when he was a child he wanted to World King. Of course, as he was born in the US, he could be President of the USA.

Are you sure Hays u have me on filter.

Come on doodlebug Im gettin bored.

Ask her indoors and be quick.

ohhhhhh forget it, going for a Sunday dinner, and then church.

Haze,

"I have been to the London Assembly and watched Boris doing Mayor's question time. He is an amazing force. Labour constantly subject him to a barage of questions about various policies. They never lay a finger on him. "


You are becoming thicker and thicker at reading public opinion!

When you mention "Boris", he brings a smile to some people's faces, but it is more often than not accompanied with "ych a fi" or the equivalent!

Another comment such as "another out touch T---", but if you wish to look at the back ground of the prima donnas in the Tory and KIPPERS parties you can understand where that ethos was nurtured.

The tories are trying to save themselves and are digging deeper and deeper.

Long may the work continue.

((the feminine applies well enough in this case)

Ps. If the voters trust Boris with his track record, or their wives, they will be bigger fools than I would give them credit for being.

Come on dooodles Bug............ im waiting

Chickened out.

Haystack, on the Sunday Politics show Andrew Neill has said that he reckons that Labour will lose in the region of 20 seats to the SNP at the GE. Concurs with what you and I think.

And how many on the show did they think UKIP would gain from both parties

I don't think anyone had a clue really and when Neill interviewed Farage all Farage would say was that he wasn't going to make any wild predictions about how many seats UKIP would win at the GE, but he did say he expected more defections from both main parties.

DB4,

But when the crunch comes who would those 20 vote with.

SNP who else?

Whatever you may say, I think Cameron and cronies has polarised the country with a large minority of voters bearing to the far right helped on by a public bar haranguer.

The majority of voters lean and vote to the left unless circumstances, like 2008-2010 disillusions them and they wish to revolt against those objectified as the cause.

Hence the continuing attacks by the Right wing press and tory party cohorts trying to lay the blame with Labour for the economic "? collapse".

The Libs for the last 50 years have in general represented the moderate middle voters.


Unfortunately, for the Cons the economy is still in the "doldrums" and looks bleaker than he promised. Also, as Osborne has nothing to give away, except to his own kith and kin and per usual looking around for a scapegoat for his shoddy "work". i.e. his trading partners.

Thankfully, the public no longer believe the Confidence Tricksters!

I think the tories have had it, but Nigel will get the blame!
