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.

Need to stop reading the comics.

hay HAMAS ARE TERRORISTS THAT IS FACT JUST MURDERING SCUM .

Just acting as a resistance to occupiers of their territory. Just like the French resistance fighting German occupiers. Nothing will stop it while Israel keeps taking their land. Hamas were democratically elected. If you don't like rockets fired at you then don't occupy someone else's land

correct hay they voted for ongoing war , if you fight with guns you die by them
the pen is mightier than the gun

You can't make this shit up! Thank God (if you are naieve to believe in one) today is Poets Day Piss Off Early Tomorrows Saturday. TANK do you require a lift to the airport?

rosie - you need to do some decent research on this whole issue, though it is indeed very complicated

i am ashamed to say that, going back to about 1930 (i think), the prime philosophy of the IDF was to drive the resident arabs from their land in israel, notwithstanding that many had been there for generations

prior to that time, the jewish immigrants and their arab neighbours had lived together very happily indeed, often helping each other at harvest time and similar

suggest reading "my promised land" by ari shavit .... it's very readably and enlightening

never mind the pass time posts , buy barcs

Corbyn still doing worse than don't knows

and from which illiterate rag did that come from, that doesn't know the difference between better and best?

Maybe it recognises that Corbyn and Don't Know are DNRs, therefore May has no competition.

When you look at the shit the standard bearer of the left are pushing out, you know it's over. Mind, the torygraph seems to be going the same way.

John McDonnell won't intervene if Hilary Benn faces deselection fight


Shadow chancellor says Labour leadership ‘won’t interfere in local democracy’ if Benn faces deselection battle in Leeds Central

John McDonnell, the shadow chancellor, has refused to intervene to ensure Hilary Benn remains a Labour MP amid reports that he is facing a possible deselection battle with activists in his local party.


Some of Jeremy Corbyn’s close allies remain angry with the former shadow foreign secretary since he argued against the Labour leader and in favour of airstrikes against Islamic State in Syria from the opposition frontbench.

Benn was then sacked from his role as shadow foreign secretary amid claims that he was encouraging colleagues to resign as part of an attempt to replace Corbyn as leader.


The Sunday Times claims that Corbyn supporters have taken over positions in Benn’s Leeds Central constituency party and he is facing the threat of deselection in the seat.

Asked whether he would discourage a challenge against Benn, McDonnell said the leadership would not interfere in local party affairs.


“Labour leadership doesn’t involve itself in local selections to the local party. That’s democracy,” the shadow chancellor told BBC Radio 5 Live’s Pienaar’s Politics.

I read that in the times ,he is setting up an office near Westminster , he must have one hell of a thick skin .
