THE TALK TO YOURSELF THREAD. (NOWT)     

goldfinger - 09 Jun 2005 12:25

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.

What a difference a day makes ?

Camelot - 12 May 2010 11:48 - 9111 of 81564

It was my party and I'll cry if I want to ?

The world is wrong.

Great. I knew this would bring the quips out. At least we can bring a smile to people.
Pity there can't be a prize for best title.
Perhaps after Friday 12 noon we can all vote for best title (No coalitions accepted).
Will be away from Sat to Sat, on my yearly walk for charity.

Just listened to somebody at the local pub telling his mate that Cameron had got into bed with Clegg.

His mate wanted to know which was the biggest harlot.

Did your chewing gum lose its flavour overnight ?

LOL

I am waiting to see if Gordon Brown was fixing the figures regarding the debt. It looks like he was fixing the unemployment figues judging by the large rises and terrible figures today.

This_is_me - 12 May 2010 18:59 - 9119 of 81564

The 'electoral reform'society is just a branch of the 'Lets give the so called Lib so called Dems more MPs even at the expense of a shambles society.

This_is_me - 12 May 2010 18:59 - 9120 of 81564

There are bound to be a few jokes like this one until he gets a nice little earner at our expense in the EU.

Haystack,

That is by biggest worry. I am sure that when the books are examined, many more billions of debt will be discovered.
And that is not even allowing for PFI's building schemes where all cost are 'off the books' something as I previously said, would if a private company did not carry this on the accounts would be looked at by the FSA.
Remember he also fixed the crime figures for 2 years in a row which he later had to admit to, when Home Office Officials stated that the full list had not even been completed.
Also of course we had the fiddled immigration figures when for a while not all dependents, were counted.
Of course there were the statements he made in the 'House' that the defence budget had increased in real terms over several years. This again had to be corrected, when the figures proved him wrong. He had knowingly 'Lied'.
I could go on but the list is endless.

Kayak - 12 May 2010 19:35 - 9122 of 81564

I can't see what job Gordon is going to do. Traditionally politicians have gone into jobs that have to do with people. Gordon is terrible with people. I think the EU is to do with people so that rules him out.

This_is_me - 12 May 2010 21:18 - 9123 of 81564

How about adviser to the Greek governmemt on money matters?!

London Mayor Boris Johnson compared the new coalition to a "cross between a bulldog and a Chihuahua" and a "bright blue tropical fish with yellow dots".

He told Sky News: "I think actually that the British people in their brilliance and their imagination have come up with something potentially rather wonderful.

"They've taken the political palette of colours and they've mixed them. They didn't want pure Conservative, they certainly didn't want Gordon Brown. And they've got something new and different.

"They've created a mongrel breed. It's a kind of cross between a bulldog and a Chihuahua. And like all mongrel breeds I think it will have a great deal of hybrid vigour and strength."

He said he did not believe there would be infighting or bickering between the parties, adding: "There's huge pressure on the Lib Dems in the Cabinet, on the Tories in the Cabinet, on all of us to get together and sort it out.

"I think it's a robust and interesting new specimen. It's like a glorious new, bright blue tropical fish with yellow dots, and it might well survive for a very long time. It might be very popular and very successful."

Haystack - 12 May 2010 22:26 - 9125 of 81564

I emailed the picture of Gordon to the UIniite union and to the Labour Party. They need something to laugh about.

MightyMicro - 12 May 2010 22:58 - 9126 of 81564

H; You cruel bastard. Nice one.

Haystack - 13 May 2010 00:04 - 9127 of 81564

This is the reply I have received so far

LOL

Thank you for your message. It will be forwarded to the appropriate team at Labour to deal with your enquiry.

Fred1new - 13 May 2010 09:25 - 9128 of 81564

I think the difference between G Brown and Cameron are obvious.

Brown has principles and ideals, which he occasionally fails to live up to, and sometimes hasn't achieve, whereas the PR man Cameron is happy to jettison any principle or ideal he many have had, in order to get into power.

The latter has already torn up the promises in the tory manifestos and cheated his own party.

Hays, try as you like, you can not bring G Brown down to your level and what ever you say, or write, he is well respected in Europe and the rest of the , world.

Probably, he will be offered some position influential position in Europe.

Also, looking at the TV shots of his interaction with his wife and very happy children I think he has a lot of pleasures and enjoyment in his life.

I wonder why you have a need to be so malevolent, is it jealousy because he is successful and that you don't seem to be.

Kayak - 13 May 2010 09:34 - 9129 of 81564

Can you finally tell us now Fred, what it is about Brown that has you talking like that about him. Elsewhere you seemed to imply that you were a recent convert to Labour. It's not wrong to have a hero, but you must have some reason for it. You seem to have him on a pedestal. He seems to have touched you in some way. Is it some particular policy, or do you know him or someone close to him?
