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.

Makes no odd's which one of the three main plonkers are in power, it's more of the same.
Cameroon saying there is no alternative to austerity (which seems to entail spending more money)
Millibum saying even more spending is required even though theres no more money (supposedly)
And Cleggy wants more of both.
Record numbers of people (supposedly) in work, yet the social bill keeps going up.
Whats going on?

Max,
It isn't spending money which is the problem, but how you earn it, On what, or where and why you spend itl
These ex - Bullingdon boys have been spending money they never earned, at the expense of others while seemingly on hallucinogenics on themselves and mates.
Austerity, I wonder what the bill for Lynton Crosby is?
Misread this a short while ago:
"David Cameron appoints Lynton Crosby to run Tory erection "
Thinking back they still need his help!

Another "Tory nonse" cut that reduces peoples ability to move around the country more effectively.. and yet another nail in the "Con " Party/Government's coffin.

If we do go into recession it will be interesting to see Camoron explaining away why the unemployment figure as increased so much and so quickly because these poor devils on nil hour contracts will be the first to go and have no protection and there are so many of them.
Add on the self employed Zombie jobs and this country will be in one hell of a state and in double quick time.
Lets hope it doesnt happen and the EC get printing money as its the only way out now.

i'm not paranoid at all .... is shall be delighted if that crew are shown to be at the forefront of labour's electioneering
as i have long said, if DM had been elected as leader instead of Wallace Miliband, the next election would be "no contest"

The SNP's rise means Labour must look for seats in the south
The party must appeal to a broad coalition of classes and constituencies
Patrick Diamond
To have a hope of outright victory in 2015, Labour has to significantly improve its position in the southern and midlands’ marginals.
There is an even greater urgency today: after the Scottish referendum, Labour cannot rely on increasing its share of parliamentary seats in the so-called ‘northern and Celtic heartlands.’
The party has little room for manoeuvre: it urgently needs to lock in its support while enlarging its electoral base.
More obvious shite here:

Manuel,
Do you mean because I am second born, that I shouldn't have competed with my brother.
Or none of my daughters should compete with one another. They are all about 50 and are in various ways still doing so.
You seem to be back in the Old Bible.
The brothers were brought up to compete and both accepted the result and got on with the result.
There may be a place of David back in full UK politics at a later date!
=====
But is a diversion from the knife in the back of the factions within the "tory" party.
Have heard Dave and George are making their own coffins!
