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.

Haystack you and your prophacies rarely turn out to be reliable predictions,
or for anyone to bet the mortgage on, its down to you stuck in a dusty smokey,
whisky hue old gentlemans club, who believes there should be just one political
party, and that being a tory one ...
In fact i wouldn't be surprised if some of those old sops from the judiciary were
members in your local conservative 'gentle'mans clubs..

Little timmy farron was interviewed on the Daily Politics by Andrew Neil on
the 2/11, and he tried to hoodwink A.N and the watching viewers, then on
the Marr show they had the boy clegg lying and deceiving through his back
teeth, but, ho it comes so natural to the libdems that it must be a dispicable
trait that runs through the WHOLE of the LibDem party, after all there's paddy
'caught with his pants down' Ashdown the clown elect of the liberals.....

Far right candidate in Austria has lost today. He has conceded defeat. He won in May but there were irregularities in the voting and the election has been rerun.

NO the 'Far right candidate' did NOT win in May, it was won by the left-leaning
candidate but was voided because of postal voting irregularities...
And it wouldn't surprise me if there wasn't more skulduggery and shinanigans
to keep the staus quo in power in this election...

The liberal lefties(and some on the centre right) in Europe are leading us
down the path of destruction and cultural oblivion with their Islamisation
of europe, the surrender and fawning and appeasment is nauseous to the
extreme.

I thought Rosie was a reincarnation of the Tinker, but perhaps I was wrong?
It seems GB has taken up the mantle.

The Austrian election was only for a figurehead...The earthquake one is
in Italy, if its no then Renzi will be gone and the gangsters in Brussels will
no doubt be looking for a puppet replacement, unless the Italians tell them
to do one and the banks collapse, then we might see the imploding of the
european project...HOPEFULLY!!!

i hope the rest of you enjoy his tripe, but personally i'm very pleased i have him filtered - he's in that corner on his own

Stupid is what stupid does....

It will be a surprise if Italy voted No. The referendum question is very sensible and should get a Yes. The No voters campaign may have chosen the wrong topic.
Italy has had its current system since it was imposed on it after WWII. It has produced weak government and an average of one GE a year since the war. A move to asymmetric bicameralism will make it the same as the UK.

Except that the Senators in Italy, apart from a very few, are elected, unlike our lot. More than 900 of the pests, of which no fewer than 189 were appointed by Cameron. Look at a typical session of the Lords and you will be lucky to count 30 or 40, although some may be sleeping in the aisles. Time we had a referendum on cutting that lot out.

The Italian system is no better for having elected members in the upper house. It's problem is that both houses have equal power so that legislation doesn't get passed.
At least our lower house has supremacy in the end.

With Hollande going and now Renzi it's looking like centre-left Governments are soon going to be pretty much extinct outside of Sweden.
