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.

Haystack is correct, the unions said weeks ago that they didn't want Murphy. The unions wanted Findlay.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK!
SIR FRED THE RED ARISE!!!
"I don't know how old you are, but your opinions are clouded more and more by indoctrinated ideological beliefs. (Signs of early senility.)"
Fred did you actually keep a straight face when uttering those immortal words whilst staring directly into a mirror?

52953 - i wonder why; indeed, i thought it was already a criminal offense for surely you can be sent to jail for same if you don't pay the thumping fine with which you'ld be clobbered
52946 - surely the audiences for these sort of progs is always seeded or at least, the pals of the panel must surely get first pick of the tickets up to a certain number

It doesn't really matter that the brother of a UKIP MP was in the audience. It is however, nice to know as his opinions and outbursts can be safely ignored. He did seem to be somewhat of an ignorant lout, so it is nice know the reason why. His silly point of asking why Russell Brand does not stand for parliament should have been a clue to his intellect. He implied that anyone who does not want to be an MP cannot hold strong opinions.

Why doesent Brand stand for parliament?
it would be a good test of his popularity...real popularity, to see how many twitarse peeps he could actually persuade to get out of bed and vote for him.
The results, either way would be interesting.

Standing for parliament and getting elected or not is no indication of the sense of your views. It is just about convincing the public, who are gullible at best.

Max,
It may be a test of "popularity", but many would shirk the responsibility being a candidate and if successful a MP.
He probably realises where his "talents" lie.
As we know it is easy to be critical, but being constructive and thinking out future policies and the evaluate feasibility is daunting.
=====
I am interested in politics, but the responsibility of being an MP and doing the "necessary" to "succeed" on the the greasy poll to achieve a goal is step to far.

MaxK - if Brand supposedly has got 16 million followers on Twitter then I would suspect he has 15.9 million twitarse dumb blonde peeps he could persuade to get into bed with him and vote for him!!

A lot of his followers are not from the UK. He was in the US for a long time.

Brand is a man of the people...I know that for a fact, because he keeps telling us he is!
It's not as if he is short of the odd £grand for a deposit.
It would be interesting anyway, as his chosen target (must be tory) might get a big surprise.

No one with any sense would vote for Brand. It would be a wasted vote. Mind you, I think that about all UKIP candidates as well.
