  1. The alternative is More of the Tories, good luck with that. Best to bite the bullet, and vote for what ,for some, could be regarded as by far the lesser of two evils.
  2. I’m all for PR, by far the most Democratic system. I’ve got less faith in the electorate to decide fiscal priorities. Sadly, 40 Years of right wing Neo Liberalism, has led too many people in this country to lose sight of anything socially worthwhile if it means they have to pay for it.
  3. Is that their fault or the electorates though. Voters cry out for principles and honesty, then at the ballot box, crucify the first guy to show any.
  4. If I ever doubted the validity of wearing my poppy, I only have to be with my mates son, who lost both legs to an IED in Afghanistan. Whatever the merits of any war, it’s the men who sacrificed so much that the poppy is remembering. It’s little enough.
  5. Whatever he says, won’t make a smidgeon of difference to the Israelis. They are totally set on a course to destroy Hamas. Only the USA can hold any influence over them. And honestly, after the atrocities inflicted on the Israelis on the 7th of October, I doubt even they could hold Israel back. It’s pointless to target Starmer here, he simply isn’t a player. Neither is Sunak or anybody else on this small, post Brexit, rather insignificant island.
  6. The days of Britain wielding much influence in the Middle East are long gone. Even less for a politician who isn’t yet in power.
  7. Sad really. They are a grand old club, with a good history. They’re walking a road that we so nearly went down ourselves. We really should think ourselves blessed that we ended up with our current owners. Feel for their fans.
  8. Isn’t that what Hamas want to do to the Jews.
  9. No match report in the Guardian. Yet they have an article on the revenue of Man Utd. Newspapers of today have lost sight of what the game is all about.
  10. Whatever else this is. Only a total Moron would consider it amusing.
  11. You go to the toilets at the Sty to get some fresh air.
  12. So did I. That semi Final under floodlights is still the most exciting game I’ve ever experienced
  13. Sir Bob was the cleanest striker of a ball I ever saw. If he was anywhere within 30 yards of goal you could expect fireworks. A sad day.
  14. Ah my mistake, I guess you were referring to Tamworth not the UK.
  15. Guess that means, in the words of her husband, she and he can both f**k off now. Ghastly people.
  16. Labour should broadcast that as a Party Political Broadcast. Wonderful, and so true.
  17. The Tories have been in power for 13 years. They own that toilet, no one else, them.
  18. I live down the road from Tamworth, by Bassets Pole. Why the f***k people there vote Tory simply amazes me. The Home Counties it ain’t.
  19. Always worth remembering in the midst of this, is the belief amongst many , but never tacitly acknowledged by the Israelis, that they have nuclear capability.
