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

    Except it's not even right wing either - the present Tory party is only slightly right of centre I'd say.

    General Election

    I think we need both. It's important, I think, for the electorate to see how competent the Home Secretary would be if Labour won. She never comes across well IMO, speaks very slowly and repeats the same emotional but factless tripe but is rarely pressed where only a fact will do. What...

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

    Yeah well, as a mathematician I understand that 'typical' doesn't mean 'all'. I also understand that Irish doesn't mean poor. And, BTW, that an ellipsis has only three dots.

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

    I have no idea if this can be supported by survey, but I think that the typical Remainer was born with a silver spoon in their mouth. Brought up in relative wealth: second or third generation of wealth and busy living the dream on inherited money (even if not actually inherited yet); never...

    League one/two released players 2017

    I'd prefer to have Eddie Snoz from Lower Uddington Sporting and the like than more has-beens squeezing their last few thousands out of the game. I'd rather we can 12th next year and had a team that wants to play, has enthusiasm and will grow as a team.

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

    The twat leaked, what I assume is a heavily span, account of a private meeting and came up with some gems like "Brexit can't work". He is a bully and a cad and I want nothing to do with him. I'd have preferred an amicable split but if the wanker wants to play hardball then bring it on - the...

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

    Juncker can stick his fat cat undemocratic negative bullshit up his arse and fuck off whilst he's doing it. Honestly, what a wanker.

    It's not an either / or

    I think that we're only going to get a bid that is acceptable from a fan such as Hoffman. I cannot see someone independent offering as much.

    third bid

    I would like another thread; the main one is littered with bickering and I still haven't managed to find the posts from Italia that people are occasionally referencing.

    She later fully withdrew the accusation when it was pointed out to her that Costa Coffee do pay all their taxes in this country.

    Another Paris attack

    Musee D'Orsay is great; once spent a whole day in there and it still wasn't long enough. And the clock face cafe is genius.

    1. I'm not right wing. I'm a floating voter take everything on its merits. If you had to categorise me it would be "analytical". It just so happens that nothing Labour is saying presently makes any sense to me. 2. Why on Earth would my musical tastes have any bearing on my politics, even if...

    Bowie

    Ha! I remember busking 'Five Years' with a pal outside Bath Abbey in the early 80s, along with 'Hard Days Night' and 'Wish You Were Here'. We used to get enough cash for a punt and a pint and then go to Corals to try and make enough for an evening out. Happy Days (second Beckett reference of...

    Bowie

    PS, I once said to a very close friend that I couldn't imagine an artiste that we could possibly have in common. He immediately touted Tom Waites and I had to eat my words.

    Honestly, and without enmity, I didn't expect you to like his music. We are all different; I think the music you like is shite. And yet we can agree on many other things. Thus is life. :)
