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.

U have just suggested that our P.M. is corrupt, are you sure of your facts?

Stable,

Agree with most of what you say, but I still feel the Conservatives could push the Lib Dems far more than they are doing, as I feel Nick Glegg and his cohorts would be much more reluctant to break up the coalition than you think, due to the said partnership being their best bet for any sort of power.
The Lib Dems are dead in the water, and without the Conservative life belt would sink without trace!
As to Tankers comments, I agree that Cameron is like most of our parliamentarians, with the 'I'm alright attitude', sod the rest.

Greek.

GF.

"I reckon this coalition have at best another 18 months"

Sadly, I made a prediction that the coalition would fall apart at the end of 18months. I seem to be wrong and realise that the coalition is stapled together as both parties think they need one another. A lousy marriage with its continuous bickering and threats of divorce, but never quite getting to court, in spite of the ongoing misery.

Judging by a present disorganised public opinion, many who wished an escape from "Labour" in 2010 and chose the Liberals, as they had no stomach for the then current disconnected tory leadership, would switch their votes back to Labour, taking many liberal voters with them. They feel the Liberal leadership by accepting some said coalition policies has betrayed them and what they thought the Liberal party stood for.

At the moment Labour seem lost, but are probably trying to work out what they should stand for in the present environment. Also considering where and how they think the UK "society" should develop. I hope that a modified pragmatic socially inclusive ideology will emerge suitable for current internal and external UK circumstances.

A hell of a task and it takes time to analyse the past mistakes and discard outdated ideas.

However, while the Libs and tories are digging bigger and deeper holes for themselves, I would think the last thing the labour leadership need, or wan is an election.

Guessing, or judging by recent economic figures, even if the coalition runs to its last available day before an election, the economy will still be in a disastrous state and the fickle public will reject both Liberals for their past treachery and the "tories" for their antiquated ideologies.

(That is even without the European Economy collapsing.)

The views of Tanker represent for me the best of "toryism". 8-)

Stable.

Check Camerons' land purchases.

(Question, from whom, at what price and when and why?)

Also, what payments for the properties upkeep is paid by the public?

Flogging off of the good parts of a bank to Branson, at this moment in time, is suspicious to many.

Good to see that this tory led government has solved the "immigration problems".

They have conspired with the unions to block the airports!

A couple of months old but.... Labours embarrassing immigration secrets revealed

Reports kept under wraps by Labour showing that immigrants who came to Britain from Romania and Bulgaria had low education levels and were more likely to claim out-of-work benefits are to be released for the first time by ministers.

Just had an email from my daughter - apparently Morrisons are giving 25% for any 6 bottles of for this weekend only.

REPLACEMENT WINDOWS



Last year, I replaced all the windows in my house with those expensive, double-pane, energy-efficient kind.

Today, I got a call from the contractor who installed them.

He complained that the work had been completed a year ago. and I still hadn't paid for them.

Hellloooo,............just because I'm blonde doesn't mean that I am automatically stupid.

So, I told him just what his fast-talking sales guy told me last year...
.that these windows would pay for themselves in a year.
Helllooooo? It's been a year, so they're paid for, I told him.

There was only silence at the other end of the line, so I finally hung up.
He never called back.

I bet he felt like an idiot.

So had you paid for them ? and was that THE contractor or a scam caller.

Difficult to imagine Fred as a dumb blonde! (at least the blonde bit)

lol ,Hay it's taken him a year to post that , must be a copy & paste from somewere

That reply doesn't make sense

Fred never makes sense, life is too short to get annoyed by him, if he was funny it wouldn't be so bad. The squelch button will help you.

and in another move, German Chancellor Angela Merkel and French President Nicolas Sarkozy were revealed to be plotting a new pact on economic union without consulting Britain or other countries outside of the EU.
They are determined not to give Britain the chance of insisting on powers being handed back from Brussels by negotiating a major new EU treaty.

Germany's original plan was to try to secure agreement among all 27 EU countries for a limited change to the Lisbon Treaty by the end of 2012, making it possible to impose much tighter budget controls over the 17-member Eurozone.
Countries will be forced to submit their budgets for EU approval before they go to national parliaments, will have to sign up to strict new rules on the size of debts and deficits and will be sued for any breach in the European Court of Justice

Hi Tanker,

I understand re the rapist and murderers comments, but what have you got against 'Caribbean Cooks'.
