James Milners favourite racehorse is Ernie the whippet.

James Milner introduced the phrase "bandy legs" to the Wild West.

No. Too many polls.

No-one is cooler than the Fonz. Al Pacino is cool, but he just can't lace the Fonz's boots in coolness.

It was James Milner that re-intrduced baggy shorts to English football in the early 90's after persuading Eric Cantona that they had it right in the 50's when he was a lad. James Milner is not credited enough for the introduction of the yellow football which is a throw back to playing in the snow with an orange ball in the 60's.

James Milner sees in black and white.

There may be more mortgages being agreed, but only because of repossessions and a realisation by homeowners that their houses aren't the cash cow they thought they were. Further depreciation in the housing market this year. Summer will be the time to see what happens as far as jobs etc are panning out. It will either steady to no movement by then another 5-10% down or be falling through the floor as our economy disintegrates.

Are bankers, economists and governments globally: A) Stupid or Greedy or C) Attempting to bring worldwide anarchy or D) All of the above? And which is the most worrying for the "normal" person?

Where is the clandestine behaviour then? Not with the Public bodies. With recipients of tax monies. Nice little loophole. Police state in the normal sense - no. Unseen Power and Police state - could well be. The Police are a tool of the people with real power and it isn't the folk who allow the consensual Policing. I sometimes wonder if the noises made by "human rights" folk aren't just there so we don't keep our eye on the real "ball".

That's another question altogether. But whilst we are on about it, by that argument, where it is public money - for example the Prison service My view is no. It all gets daft. But if we want to be transparent where it suits and not where it doesn't.....therein lies the problem.

Public tax money spent by Public bodies. Why shouldn't we know what we are investing in?

From simple google search - not official Common Purpose site though. This next one is: Prisons/ Councils etc.....and Horsham Council - nice link to another thread! Sorry all a bit off topic. Or is it?

Read the article more closely. Simply adds words like routine as scaremongering tactic. Home Secretary is using the tactic for surveilance - intrusive. It isn't to "routinely" hack. Naughty slant put on the dtory if you read what it actually says. If it is wrong to use this tactic in youropinion, they are wrong. If it is a sound tactic, they are not. She speaks at Common Purpose (on their website) and will refuse to answer whether she is a member. FOIA requests are ignored by this group. Just a few issues which I find incredibly hypocritical. Or maybe she would prefer powerful organisations and members of our community can continue what appears to have completely unreported meetings and think tanks using their influence and power over the unsuspecting masses?

More sensationalist mumbo jumbo from the "rent a quote" queen. I'm more interested in what her part is in Common Purpose which ironically uses Chatham House rules on ALL courses and has a far fetched but interesting conspiracy surrounding it. Anyway, Police State? Don't know yet. Looks like this isn't new news anyway. Already being authorised by Home Secretary/ Surveillance commission. The word "routine" just seems to be purposely misplaced by the journo And then adds hack/ quiet into the same headline. Unless the Home Secretary spends her days signing these applications up. Pah. Looks like drat was right - non story.

Ladies and gentlemen.............. I bring you the WINNER! Of the FAT CRISTIANO RONALDO Competition!!!!!

Are you dissin' SWP?

About a fortnight ago: This week: My views posted on one of the other threads. Probably sits better on here

Woodrow Wilson: From www.whitehouse.gov What they don't attribute on this site is this quote: "I am a most unhappy man. I have unwittingly ruined my country. A great industrial nation is controlled by its system of credit. Our system of credit is concentrated. The growth of the nation, therefore, and all our activities are in the hands of a few men. We have come to be one of the worst ruled, one of the most completely controlled and dominated Governments in the civilized world no longer a Government by free opinion, no longer a Government by conviction and the vote of the majority, but a Government by the opinion and duress of a small group of dominant men." And now we are reaping the rewards.

Tough one. Not being a ST holder, I would probably not get to the match when we won it. Wouldn't get to the England match either. Mind you, would prefer the .... Season review with Villa DVD. Or would I? Gabby could score the winner after a Davies goal line clearance for England! Tough one.

Rag...................Bull!

We can't wait for ID cards,Jacqui says so: I love our Gov't Next we will all be asking to join the Euro and have Gordon Goldfish for another 4 years and want the Gov't to tell us what we like for tea.

Adlington double gold and world record acheiving more than Sharon David ever did. Surely?! And not a Scot or tax exile purlease!

General, You are a legend, but seriously? Publicize? Great start to the season and fifty quid well spent on Wednesday to see a smile from the lad of real happiness following the win over Blackburn. As the advert goes.... Priceless. A Villa fan forever now!

We are a sad bunch of 30 somethings with nothing better to do aren't we?!

maybe the entries at number 35 and 38 by some other group will please him then :winkold: Haha missed them, well spotted! :shock: Alphabetic order rather than preference? :shock:
