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 really are such a bitter and twisted old curmudgeon with never a complimentary word to say of any tory politician of indeed, i think, of anyone who does not fall into line with the far left mantra

At least he is consistent.

Manuel,

Here is a good word about the tories:

Cameron and Osborne have departed.

More interesting summation of political position is:

If you are not too doddery to do so, have a read of it.

To me, it is a reasonable evaluation.

There is one fly in the ointment which may or may not influence her capabilities and that his her "late" development and "diagnosis" of type 1 diabetes.

Compare photos of her between about 2010 and now.

I wondered what was happening!

Fred calling us little Britain again , Fred if you hate Britain so much why don't you fcuk off and live some where else
France would be a good place you can tell the French why you sympathise with all the terror attacks they have suffered .

A small military aircraft carrying newly-appointed Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson has had to make an emergency landing on its way to Brussels.
The plane, which took off from RAF Northolt, was forced to land at Luton Airport following a "technical issue", a Foreign Office spokesman said.
Mr Johnson thanked the crew for their professionalism and was grateful to Luton Airport for the unscheduled welcome, the spokesman added.
He has now continued his journey.

Damn!

Dumbo,

To me, you seem to have the same mindset as Recep Tayyip Erdoğan.

Do you applaud him?

Perhaps, Putin may be more to your taste.

Fred you constantly call me and others childish names but you are a proper Moron and not a very nice one at that .
You support terrorist attacks so don't be telling me or anyone else we have the mindset of a despot.

Appearances, for me!

Suggest you check my posts!

No thanks, they were shit! the first time.

Don't sugar coat it! Tell him what you think.

What a great final round of The Open , the standard was incredible . probably also the last Open Alliss will comment on for the BBC always good to hear his voice on golf .

indeed - truly amazing quality of golf from both and no one else in the field got near those scores
as was observed - you shoot 65 in the final round and LOSE?????

Owen Smith the new challenger to Corbyn went to the same school as me. My town has already produced one Prime Minister of Australia but can't see this chap ending up in No 10.

Maybe you should run Dil ,the way things are at the moment you'd stand a cracking chance .

Owen Smith will pull out and leave the field open to the Eagle.

She yearns to be the first 'dyke' leader of the Labour party.

Coup plotters. Turkey told no joining EU if thy execute plotters.

Meanwhile.....

Johnson, Davis and Fox to get joint use of Chevening, the foreign secretary's mansion. Or, to put it another way, Boris is forced to have to share his Foreign Minister's 'grace and favour' residence with two other Brexit ministers, all because of the large amount of entertaining and hosting, that's to be expected.



Theresa May to visit Berlin to see Angela Merkel, the German Chancellor and then Paris to see Francois Hollande, the French President, this coming week.

French Foreign Minister says Brexit talks should start as soon as possible.

Theresa May makes her first appearance in the Commons today as prime minister and she will be opening the debate on renewing Trident. Nothing strange about that, but the interesting thing is going to be the Scottish and Labour reactions on what is being discussed. Scotland's SDP are against and Labour are a bit mixed (up?) about it.

Johnson keeps reinforcing the message, that despite Brexit, the UK will not be giving up its 'leading role' in Europe.

with all the jobs that trident supports in scotland, i'm surprised that snp is anti
