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.

Like others Stan, best of a bad bunch, not always voted that way, and yes very disillusioned with Cameron if not the Tories generally. I've got you down as a UKIP voter Stan, is that right.
I believe many others will also follow Farage in the run-up to the referendum, it's a pity he is almost a one man band, he speaks for a good many people imo.

Farage does talk good sense on some subjects. Can you really see him running the country ? I bet all the local pubs have a regular like him. :-))

Farage? you seriously mean you are are actually impressed with what that Crowd manipulator says and his reasons for saying them?.. I have obviously given some of you more credit then you deserve.

I'll tell you one thing , Farage is the most honest and Gutsy politician in Britain today ,he's not scared to upset a proportion of the people and speak his mind .
It is just a shame he is leading UKIP as in my mind he's basically a one man band ,a bloody good one though .

Jeremy Corbyn loses the trust of Labour voters as belief in him falls to almost half that of Ed Miliband
The Labour leader has lost the trust of scores of voters compared to his predecessor and support for the party has also taken a significant dip, new research shows
Just 18 per cent of voters trust Jeremy Corbyn - half the number who had faith in his predecessor Ed Miliband, a new survey has shown.
David Cameron has won over 40 per cent of people, up seven per cent since 2014 according to research by Edelman.
Nationally, the reputation of the Labour party has also taken a hit, with 10 per cent fewer people saying they would trust the party compared to when Mr Miliband was in charge.
The figures are the latest in a trend to show a lack of public support for Mr Corbyn, after almost three quarters admitted to feeling wary of his stance on national security in a survey in December.
Support for Labour has fallen 10 percentage points since 2014, from 41 per cent in 2014, to 36 per cent last year and just 31 per cent in 2016.
In stark contrast, support for the Conservatives has remained steady and increased by one percentage point since 2015 to 38 per cent.
The only leader with a lower trust rating than the Labour leader is Leanne Wood, the leader of Plaid Cmyrw. His rating is on a par with Ukip leader Nigel Farage.
David Cameron's trust rating has increased over the same period from 33 per cent to 34 in 2015 and 40 per cent in 2016. He is now more trusted than Boris Johnson for the first time since the Edelman Trust Survey began.
Just 24 per cent of those asked said they felt Mr Corbyn represents them, compared to the prime minister who was out in front on 32 per cent - beating even Boris Johnson, who scored 29 per cent.

Got a link for that "research" Haystack?

And there's me thinking that Leanne Wood was a woman. Mind you I thought Bruce Jenner was a man so we live and learn.
All the nonsense that Cornyn was spouting on tv on Sunday is going to come home to roost come the next general election, assuming he is still around.

The fall in popularity of Corbyn has been shown in numerous polls recently. He is only popular with a few hundred thousand Labour activists.
Don't forget that the members who voted him as leader amount to 1/2% of the electorate.

Thanks Haystack.
Corbyn is just a useful fool.
The real problem is elsewhere.

A prime minister who must plead with foreigners for the right to tweak his own benefits rules cannot be said to lead an independent country.
