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 must be pleased ,his hero Blair is not guilty.

did you ever think they would , we all no he is a bastard liar and should be hung

I suspect blairhole had a few grenades up his sleeve in case events went against him.

Dumbo,

Compared with the deliberate, or non-deliberate misleading Blair might be responsible for over the Iraq war, it would seem to me minimal compared with the Brexiters' "propaganda", "racism" and "false" information broadcasted before the referendum.

The long-term consequences of both parties actions may be similar.

--==-=
By the way, I was against the "Up and at them brigade" and "we will show them" brigade who wanted to invade Iraq.

Also, never liked Blair, from even before he was PM, but at least he was an effective
PM.

he was never a socialist and led the labour party same as the scum KINNOCK FAMILY
they are more right wingers than any one in the con party

Thicko ,really ????????????????

Ok to murder people , Fred don't deny he was your hero.

Mininmal , so if I read this right you say it's acceptable for people to be killed in action , dubious action , but in your mind it's far worse than propaganda , racism and false info , which I think was minimal . But of course in your strange world where things are turned around to SUIT your anti British stance on anything . Some one correct me if I'm wrong .

So propaganda etc is far worse than people being killed in dubious action . Tell that to the wives , girlfriends , sons , daughters , friends .

Dumbo,

You seem to me to becoming more and more delusional.

Pop along to you GP, he may have some help for you.

Unless of course, the NHS has been dismantled by the present government.

Vicky,

Economic and political mismanagement lead to as many deaths as "wars". The process is slower and doesn't hit the headlines.

Economic and political mismanagement.


Your hero's would know all about that Fred.

Fred's the only one here who needs medication :)

Just to say, since no one else has yet made mention of it so far today, that Nigel Farage has resigned as UKIP party leader.

His objective in politics was to get the UK out of Europe. Job done!

So we now have [EDIT] three four party leader elections on the go. Tories, Labour, UKIP and the Greens.

Nigel says he feels the new PM really ought to be a 'Brexit person' - which is either Gove or Leadsom. Somehow, I don't think Gove is going to make the last two. I wonder if this important characteristic might swing the balance between Theresa May and Andrea Leadsom?

I hope so. Andrea is a very hard working manager, MP and a winner. She has an enthusiasm for Brexit and will undoubtedly get people behind her.

Interesting to hear how she wants Article 50 activated ASAP and to get on with things.

Yes good post Exec.

Aye!


Came across very well, even the press were friendly (more or less)

72182 - a cock-up in a rape case? ..... an unfortunate juxtaposition!

exec - i do not doubt that andrea leadsom is a first class mp .....however, i think theresa may would (will indeed) make a better pm, withe leadsom undoubtedly having a senior cabinet post

so, while the tories start rebuilding, good old labour has its strings pulled by the unions (God bless 'em) so corbyn can stay as leader

Lifted this from across the road.

h/t to mro.

Extraordinary. Schäuble admits he only threatened to exclude us from the market because George Osborne asked him to.

oh hahaha ...... he's been as much of an ally as juncker

if you follow the course of events, you'll note that the tone from the plutocrats has softened significantly
the major fear in brussels is the potential domino effect and implosion of the whole structure

Seeing as how she is bragging about her ability to do it, should Andrea fail in her attempt to become PM and Theresa wins, then undoubtedly Theresa would give Andrea a special EU/Brexit 'Minister level' related job.

But I think Andrea will win her MP colleagues over after the first round of voting, which is merely to select the two top choices for Leader of the Conservative Party (and the job of PM). IMHO, these two top choice names will be Andrea and Theresa.

(Funny, eh? You keep looking for a really good lady leader and then all of a sudden, two of them come along at the same time.)

Andrea knows much more about the EU (and has a wealth of leadership experience in business and charities) than anyone else. She also has that very simplifying, easy flowing communicative style, that all great leaders have.
