Great minds think alike pipme, we must of been typing at the same time mate. :LOL: :LOL:
 
Must be age or something .... :D :D
All this info ! Given a few more years and more on the web .. and the grace of the BBC (blo ody good news value isn't it ?) ... Govn's may not have it as easy as in the past, the old sound bites may return in greater numbers to bite the barstewards back !! I think I know more about this election than ever before, you begin to pick up the nuances in speeches, the reluctance to answer direct questions, stone faced reply of same inadequate answer to repeated questions .. Jerry Paxman and Andrew Neil come to mind, I like old Andy, good old newshound senses the weakness and goes for the juglar .. don't they squirm !! And so they should, touting for the highest office in the land they should not be waverers and certainly not prevaricators !!

come on guys, if he was a tory mp you'd be saying "good on him" what about when he slapped the guy who thru the egg ? he had it coming to him. I don't believe in violence but your often coming out with aggressive views, if it was a tory you'd be saying he was a man of the people "getting back to basic,s" :D

Things change -- they have to. I honestly believe that more info will make for a more savvy electorate .. in time.
Perhaps they will then begin to ruffle some feathers over the lack of fulfillment and dishonouring of promises.
Everybody has to be prepared for and accept change .. it is inevitable.
;)

If it had been a Tory he would have completed the task in a stylish, rules concious manner, taking a Queensburyistic stance etc, not in a rough, snarling, animalistic manner ..ughh !

Come on K, he hasn't learned to think yet !!
Deputy PM without portfolio :D :D I bet he feels good when Tone and Gord appear in the power movie .. I bet he was cleaning the bogs .. was a cabin buoy wasn't he ? Poor old Jonno - Token old Labour - unionist, along with the Token babes, incapacitated and I'll bet we get a few token asylum seekers in the next Govn -- perhaps the odd illegal alien too.
Pleasing everybody, all of the time !! Not.
:mad: :eek:

In actual truth, both the guy throwing the egg and JP throwing a punch both broke the law. They should both of been charged for it, a football supporter would of been.However ,it was rightly overlooked because it was excepted that JP acted on the spur of the moment. As regards the reporter I don't see how you can fairly compare the two incidents. We are in an election campaign and the reporter was doing his legitimate job by asking JP questions. Why are you being so biased? if the report is correct he was arrogant by dismissing the Welsh electorate in his agreessive and loutish way. You should remember this slob represents us on the world stage. I would say exactly the same if any Tory or Lib acted like this too, they are supposed to set a good example. I disagree with most their policies but I have never seen TB or GB act in this way, indeed, I have never seen any other parties leaders act like this. He is showing the labour party up and any supporter should frown at his actions.

Is that what Howard is ? the tories token asylum seeker :D

Michael Howard is not an Asylum seeker and even if he ever was, it is good to see one can get on in our multi racial country. I can't see why you have a problem with that Richard, you must learn to live and let live and give Michael Howard a chance, at what point will you accept him to be British? It is people like you with that cause racial problems by bringing it into issues where it does'nt exist.
 
so you don't believe in taking the law into your own hands ? you surprise me sometimes Dave, alot of your comments are so full of hate and then you feel sorry for the hamiltons and then you'd shoot people as they come though the channel tunnel, kick children of single parents out on the streets and then you feel sorry for a yob that throws an egg in someones face , what would you do if it was thrown at you? :D
