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.

Did Wales (only supports them cause they play in red) win the Six Nations again? :0)

really can't bothered to read 6 pages of c+p stuff .....
anyway, i wonder if the conservatives currently hold any lead over labour nationwide
if they do, it is only because the labour party is such a disgrace with a totally incompetent leader, even if he is principled in a nice sort of tweedy way

Corbyn represents a last ditch attempt at a comeback by the left. Apart from Blair, Labour have not won an election since 1976. Furthermore, apart from Blair, Labour have only been in power for 16 years since 1945. After the next election the left will yet again be a spent force for another generation.
The electorate have rejected every attempt by Labour to get a left wing leader elected.

Hays and Manuel.
Do you mean you prefer a PM who puts his balls in a Pigs head and sniffed in the Bullingdon Club?
The tories and split and in disarray and manage out of self-interest!
A superficial party at the moment, more interested in packaging than content!

Haystack(69162) "Cameron said in January and this month that he would remain as PM if we vote out"
Before the Scottish Independence referendum 'Dave' said the same thing publicly, but an insider stated afterwards that if the result had been for independence then cameron would have resigned, because he didn't want to be a British PM to oversee the break up of the UK..
Fred1 (69163) "and who the hell would want to be PM if the vote is for exit?"
Someone who puts this country's sovereignty and democracy and independence above that of Brussels political project... Certainly not your camerons or osborne's...
----------------------------------------------------
"5-10 years of confusion."
Only IF the trade negotiations were left to cameron...But that would'nt occur because cameron and osborne would both resign if the vote was for LEAVE...GOOD RIDDANCE!!....

Believing that the more sensible will vote to stay in the EU, bellies the idea that they're sensible and that it's the LEAVERS that're the intelligent one's ......

Of course, nothing to do with the influx....
A&E now 'overwhelmed' says top doc as he calls for army of medics to be sent in
Exclusive: Britain's most senior A&E doctor says a crisis in casualty departments is escalating rapidly, with risks to safety amid desperate shortages of medics

That top doctor should know one of the reason A&E are being overwhelmed and are short of medics, is that a lot of the doctors and nurses are doing the nursing in refugee camps all round europe, instead of being in hospitals in this country...
The same happened with the ebola outbreak in Africa, NHS staff went out there.

A major reason A&E's are packed are because people are bypassing doctors surgeries and going straight to A&E. Various reasons for this: long waiting times, not on doctors lists or can't speak English.
I visit my doctor's surgery very infrequently but when I do, the visit is rarely satisfactory. I can understand why people don't bother.

i agree with the first part, but generally not with the last
that said, i had to throw a tantrum when i wanted a cholesterol test, merely as a check rather than because i had been instructed to do so
apparently i should have had a (total waste of time) doc's appt first
mind you, with modern accurate electronic stuff, certainly heart monitoring can be done at home by those who wish ..... i dare say other basic checks will also be possible in the near future too - eg are you pregnant?

As an example, I had an in-growing toe nail that was swollen and bleeding. I went to my doc who made an appointment for some weeks in the future at my local hospital. He also prescribed antibiotics for the swelling.
I went home, googled a chiropodist and saw him the following day. I didnt bother going to the chemist for the antibiotics.
When the appointment time came around some weeks later I decided to attend, as much out of courtesy, and to have the toe checked. I told the hospital doctor that I couldn't wait and had attended a private clininic. His advice was next time come straight to us and ignore the doctors appointment time.

Hays,
Still waiting to hear from you the spin from Con PHQ or No 10 on IDS and the split in the con party.
I thought you wrote that Osborne presented a "good budget"!
