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.

PS. Don't you think, that it looks like there are some bits missing from it - or that have broken off? I wonder where they are or what might have happened to them?

List of world's largest rough diamonds

Corbyn and the activists and unions appetite for him are the death throws of the hard left. His imminent demise will put the left back in the box for a generation or more.

The Conservatives are giving him an easy ride. They are looking forward to his being leader at the 2020 GE. Unfortunately, the more sensible members of Labour have other ideas. The betting is on him leaving next year. You can get 11/1 on his leaving this year, but if falls to 2/1 next year and then the odds go up again.

If the Conservatives wanted him out soon they would be leaning on him much harder. He is pretty unstable at the moment and dramatically increased pressure would push him over the edge. He is looking older by the day. If he leaves it too long it is going to be a case of mental exhaustion or a breakdown. I remember in his first days as leader, Sky were following him down the street near the Commons to ask questions and he kept muttering, "someone is bothering me".

Surely it's not beyond the means of the PLP to engineer a return of the lesser spotted Millibandus via a nice safe seat?

If he wants to be, Corbyn will still be leading the Labour party at the next election.

I doubt that Cameron will be leader of the Con Party at that point.

But I can see on the table a deal between labour, SNP and Lib/dems with a few Labour right wingers joining the neo-con party.

But Hays you haven't answered the question.

Perhaps, Manuel, your cohort, will answer for you.

Corbyn

When I'm in the shower, I'm afraid to wash my hair
I might open my eyes and find someone standing there
People say I'm crazy, just a little touched
But maybe showers remind me of Psycho too much
That's why...

I always feel like somebody's watching me
Who's playing tricks on me
I always feel like somebody's watching me
Tell me it can't be

I don't know anymore
Are the neighbors watching me
Well is the mailman watching me
And I don't feel safe anymore, oh what a mess
I wonder who's watching me now?
Who?
The IRS?

I always feel like somebody's watching me
Who's playing tricks on me
I always feel like somebody's watching me
I can't enjoy my tea!

IT.

It sounds more like a self-projection of yourself.

surely fred isn't pestering someone to answer a question when he's never been known to answer a straight question himself, or at least not with a straight answer

You can set me an example and show how it is done!

Your problem is that you don't understand your own questions or any answers when they are given!

Cameron with a party which has a majority party or followers in government is chickening out of testing or ducking his policy in the house.

He hasn't got a policy or is a chicken.

Some are saying he is everything to all men, or he is a charlatan.

Cyners,

What's bollocks is your attempt at correlation between good or bad parenting and an apathy towards refugees. The two are mutually exclusive.

And that's ignoring any suspected inference that I might in any way be a bad mother.

Dickhead!

Now now hilly, c is just trying to give the impression that he is one of the ....

hilary - i suggested no such thing .... you choose to interpret it that way for whatever reason

however, i am certainly amazed that you have no sympathy or feeling of any obligation whatsoever towards those who have patently been displaced and worse by IS in syria ..... shall we take the yazidis to give a very specific example?

Never argue with a woman, if you win things will only get worse for you...

Hey, Haze and Manuel.

I thought the Mail was one of the con party's friends!


What is behind this headline?

Pop down to Con Party Central Office "headquarters" and get the new spiel:

Sex, drugs and blackmail claims rock the Tories: Party chiefs are accused of cover-up over allegations against bullying PM's aide who 'had sex dossiers on four MPs'

Whistleblower claims aide encourage young Tory activist to sleep with MPs
The aide - Mark Clarke - was determined to secure top political position
Claims he kept dirt on everybody in party to use as leverage in the future
Comes after he was accused of bullying activist Elliot Johnson who killed himself in September

Do you know the answers.
