THE TALK TO YOURSELF THREAD. (NOWT)     

goldfinger - 09 Jun 2005 12:25

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.

Well i'm in a marginal , I've had numerous correspondence from Lab and Con . Dave has written to me personally ( well he calls me by my first name ) . Last letter was in pink telling me my vote is crucial to keep Ed out . Surprisingly it gets you thinking a bit more .

It would be interesting to see Cameron presenting a left winged Queen's speech to parliament in order to stay in "power".

MrT
on the basis that you'ld have me expelled from uk as an immigrant?
i don't think so :-)

=======

more seriously .....
my charming and well-spoken driver yesterday was a kashmiri, married with 2 children
the rest of his family still live in kashmir though he had lived in uk since about 2000

his wife, also kashmiri and who he married in kashmir before coming to uk, is a qualified nurse
very clearly, they certainly pay their dues, and secondly, though for obvious reasons i could not ask, i suspect that the wife was "invited" to uk to fill a much needed role

would you have them "expelled"?
if so, why so and if not, why not?

The state of the Con Party!



Is that Boris hiding behind Dodgy Dave?

Fred1new - 07 May 2015 08:09 - 59724 of 81564

At least it has saved another abortion.

Stan - 07 May 2015 08:10 - 59725 of 81564

Tory Tossers on here not voting Tory... you couldn't make it up -):

Just for the record I am in a pretty safe "Con" party seat but you won't catch me not voting the prat out.

Dil - 07 May 2015 08:19 - 59726 of 81564

My one daughter registered to vote in Bristol as she's in uni and it's a marginal. Her younger sister (18) asked me yesterday who she should vote for and I told her to chuck a dart at the literature we've had shoved through the door.

She said she might vote for David Cameron and Labour as they are red and so is the Welsh team ... bless her she's fecking clueless !

prodman - 07 May 2015 08:24 - 59727 of 81564

Sounds like she's inherited your genes then Dil :-)

VICTIM - 07 May 2015 08:27 - 59728 of 81564

Well at least we know the future is in good hands .

cynic - 07 May 2015 08:27 - 59729 of 81564

interestingly stan, if this was a marginal, i would assuredly vote for the tories, or certainly for another party that would keep labour out

as it happens, i'll almost certainly vote lib/dem this time as i am in tune with a number of their policies

Chris Carson - 07 May 2015 08:30 - 59730 of 81564

Well a vote for the Cons in Aberdeen is a complete waste of space and time so SNP or Lib Dem only option for me. SNP don't really need my help to kick Labour out of Scotland so probably vote Lib Dem. And hope that Cameron can persuade Clegg not to RED Line a vote on Europe and go back in coalition.

Dil - 07 May 2015 08:33 - 59731 of 81564

Nah prodman my genes wouldn't fit her but she nicks my sweatshirts sometimes :-)

Dil - 07 May 2015 08:42 - 59732 of 81564

In 1997 the landlord of our local was a strong Labour supporter and kept banging on about how we should all vote Labour as they were going to bring a minimum wage in. My wife worked there part time and when everyone fell about laughing when I suggested he didn't have to wait for a law to be passed to pay a decent wage he threatened to ban me !

The current landlord who is a good mate of mine and a strong Tory supporter keeps banging on about why we should vote Conservative (his sister in law is the Conservative candidate). He gets quite nasty about it and when everyone fell about laughing because I suggested that if he was a real Tory he would have posters up in his windows but doesn't because at least 90% of his customers would object to the them he threatened to ban me !

Moody b@stards :-)

Manuel,

Thank god your not in a choir.

The government still has the option of resigning. There follows a two week period where other parties can try and form as stable government. If that is not possible an election will happen.

stable - 07 May 2015 10:46 - 59737 of 81564

Quite brilliant!

"The Budget should be balanced, the Treasury should be refilled,
Public debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be
Tempered and controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be
Curtailed, lest Rome will become bankrupt. People must again learn to work
Instead of living on public assistance." - Cicero, 55 BC

So, evidently we've learned bugger all over the past 2,069 years.

VICTIM - 07 May 2015 10:49 - 59738 of 81564

Yeh but what have the Romans done for us .
