    Transfer Shouts

    Wasn't Hamer a 'calculated gamble'? And Gyokeres? I (and I suspect most others on here) aren't saying we should start splashing cash like it's going out of fashion, we want to understand why we consistently have lower end budgets despite crowds and income streams being above mid table? Some...

    Who else?

    I know some will scoff but I really think Tavares could be that Mifsud type, just in cameo's. I'm more than happy for Godden to play next to Vic first choice if we go two up top.

    It's depressing so far. Nothing but regurgitated nonsense that never works yet for some reason keeps getting tried. I know they're appealing to the members who'll have a warped sense of priorities focused on: 1. Cutting taxes (esp. for the rich as they're most worthy) 2. Cutting spending...

    Selective is fine, if you stop this perception of it being two tier - 'good' people in the grammars, 'bad' people in the comps. All it proves is that a set of kids are studious. It doesn't mean the others cannot lead productive lives, just they'll have a different route to what is perceived as...

    Cushty And I will be putting up the one of him falling through the bar when his leadership bid ends. Which may well be the next post in this thread.

    Happy enough with that. Left sided and must be good with the ball to be at Man City. Got some league experience too. Prefer CB's to be a bit older, but no reason he can't be good at that age. Think he'll be rotating with Fadz, as both will likely need a rest at some point for differing reasons.

    Fits in with our philosphy of playing out from the back as he's an excellent dribbler.

    As it stands

    Who? Or are you getting your Walker's mixed up and imagining we're plugging our leaky defence with Kyle?

    I understand (and agree) that the number of people that genuinely can't tick a box are few and far between, but while it's just put down as incorrect ballots they can keep deluding themselves it's just stupid proles that can't do it properly. If you look at some of the ways people try and...

    But still won't be differentiated from incorrectly filled out forms and thus recorded as a protest vote. It has to specifically be an option on the ballet for it to be recorded and thus prove a level of dissatisfaction with politics.

    Not many times I'd be routing for Djokovic but this was one.

    You can spoil your ballot, but there's no distinction made as to whether it's a protest or just not done correctly. 'None of the above' is a clear protest vote.

    Keep FPTP for constituency MP's/lower house Use PR (% of total votes received) for upper house to bring forward legislation/policy

    Compulsory voting would be fine if a. it was a public holiday b. 'none of the above' is an option so it gives a better reflection on the strength of the mandate.

    Trouble is he's very much someone who thinks everything should be run by private enterprise and given a profit incentive because it leads to better performance. Even though it's never proven to be the case. So expect even more public stuff being privatised if he got in, and the NHS would be...

    He said that when May took over to back Boris then knifed him in the back. If Gove tells you it's raining, you go outside to check.

    I live on a hill and looking out of my upper windows I can see the roofs of hundreds of houses and I always think about the amount of acres there that could be generating energy going to waste.
