    RIP Labour

    There are plenty around, from my observations made up mostly of two groups: nasty jealous hardline union leaders full of hate and naive idealist graduates.

    Otis, or anyone

    Yo may have some legal cover with your house insurance, it's quite common now and worth checking.

    RIP Labour

    I agree. Totally behind free speech and freedom of choice by the electorate.

    RIP Labour

    I don't care what levels of support McDonnell and Corbyn receive. I don't care how they dress; I don't even care that they lack charisma. I do care that they head up a mob of nasty people and given the chance for power would ruin the country economically and socially - just like all their...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    Did anyone watch Johanna Baxter from the Labour NEC being interviewed on the news yesterday? She was obviously very upset and reported that private addresses and emails of the committee had been leaked and that enormous pressure and threats had rained down on the committee before the vote on...

    I swear I've seen this somewhere before..

    Nowhere near as boring as to go out or your way to write something nasty about what someone else finds interesting - and then to follow up with an insult.

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    I'd like to see parliament try a Jane Austen novel as a full costume period drama.

    What you say is what you are - and you're not allowed to say nice things.

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    Watched her on Newsnight last night. She's criticising Corbyn for lack of leadership doesn't have much charisma herself IMO.

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    I think it's interesting; it may not be good for the country. What it could bring is the Liberals as the second largest party in 2020. I think that's no bad thing - IMO they were very badly treated in 2015 and I have a lot of admiration for Cleggie.

    I agree.

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    That would be a terrible shame if it happened. Each step you take aware from the centre is a step towards class hatred inspired decisions which is bad for the country. Only my opinion but I love it that we had three parties that wouldn't do something stupid.

    The disappointing thing about 2008 is that the Primatives warned us it was coming years before.

    What are you currently listening to?

    On University Challenge last night they played a Sex Pistols song as the starter and they had to name the band - not so difficult. They then played 3 songs by bands that were inspired by that famous Manchester gig: Buzzcocks, The Fall and Joy Division. I was amazed that the team got all of...

    Which Album?

    It would have to be "17 Seconds" by the Cure - and it didn't let me down, if anything it was better than "Three Imaginary Boys". Or "Sleep No More" by the Comsat Angels, which IMO is not as good as "Waiting for a Miracle".

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    Just my opinion - but it's daft to make a decision never to vote for a party again. The parties are just made of individuals and over 5-10 years (and sometimes instantly) there is a complete change in the people in any position of control. It's better IMO to assess the situation every time you...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    Here's a joke that was doing the rounds some months ago: A Spaniard an Italian and a Greek go into a bar and order a round of drinks. Which one pays? Answer: the German.

    Tony and Astute will you please stop arguing about FX rates. You know that you love each other really! If my wife and I were arguing about FX rates my daughter would knock our heads together and tell us to stop being so petty. Come on guys - time to move onto interest rates methinks. x
