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.

fred - you and i are assuredly of one accord on netanyahu ..... imo, a very sad day for the region, but if the populace chose not to speak out strongly enough for a movement towards peace, then i'm afraid they have got what they deserve, but to the ultimate detriment of the whole region
as a general comment, the israeli election model is truly dreadful, where a party with just 25% of the seats holds sway ..... i don't know the rules, but i think a so-called party only needs about 2% of the vote - something very paltry anyway - to get a seat in the knesset

Welcome to the Peoples Republic of Scotialand...
Scots MPs vote to pay Sturgeon more than PM: But panicked aides fear PR disaster and insist she'll take 'only' £135,000
Scottish National Party vote to make Nicola Sturgeon best-paid politician in UK
Salary boost to £144,687 was rubber stamped by the Scottish Parliament
Pay now above David Cameron's £142,500 and Boris Johnson's £143,911
But aides say she would actually draw a more modest salary of £135,605
Critics point out that Miss Sturgeon only serves about five million people

Well I think Sturgeon is well worth her salary when compared with Bankers, the bookies and punters in the city.
In a way she is responsible 6.5 million Scots.

Although I think a proportion of MPs are charlatans and duplicitous I recognise many are able and admire their abilities to hang on to and sometimes understand the details of the areas of government.
It is their solutions and goals which I question.

However, I wouldn't pay Dodgy Dave a penny, but give him and his cabinet community service for a couple of years.
Also, I would take his horse off him.

Ps. Sturgeon appears to be a full timer, unlike some of the mobsters in London.

is there much difference between fish and politics?
