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.

Blair poised to step back as peace envoy
After nearly eight years, the former British prime minister has recognised that a frontline role is no longer tenable

===========

the great toad must have spotted another opportunity to make mega-wonga

MrT - a lecture tour in mid west and deep south i assume

How Blair has escaped hanging has always puzzled me.

His role as "ME Peace Envoy" has puzzled me and seemed a handout from the American and Bush and Condoleezza Rice of being a "Nice Boy".

----------

But looking at the UK political scene it seems a ground of political pygmies.

I suppose it always has been the same but the media is now able to focus in on the fallibilities more easily.

But Grant Shapps does seem to represent the double speak of the tories.

Manuel, what are you voting for or against?

Are you getting paid for it?

YES FRED BLAIR SHOULD HUNG HE KILLED THOUSANDS OF WOMEN AND CHILDREN A SCUM BAG DISHONEST FILTHY LIAR .
and he was a labour pm the man is a crook

cynic texas .

texas - what a shit-hole of a state that is, though i know the natives think it is God's Country ..... but then few of them have travelled outside it let alone own passports!

=========

fred - am i voting for or against what exactly?
anyway, i'm afraid no one has offered to pay me anything, even to go away!

why hav they brought back those 3 teenagers we will now have to watch the scum
and taking more money let them go and take their passports away we do not want them here now on bail disgusting

so we now have 3 terrorist supporter on our streets .the public is not safe

Be careful in Texas TANKER ,some of them good old boys might get you to squeal like a piggy !!.....

proportional representation and coalition
though coalitions work in many countries, the israeli model should be a salutary warning

likud (hard right) has been in power for a good number years, though it may be kicked out in a day or two (yippee i think)

how many seats does likud hold?
just 26 from a total of 120, so they have to be supported by twiddly parties with perhaps just a handful of seats, but who would effectively like to see the destruction of the palestinians

============

however, after decades of strife and abuse, it was heartening to read that the public are at long last and very belatedly starting to speak up in favour of peace and co-existence, rather as the "popular" peace movement did in ireland

if Israel votes for the left party then they will not have a country within 10 years
the left are a party of cowards . it would be the end of Israel

in my view, that is a chance well worth taking, and i don't believe your portrait of gloom anyway
