Let's face it, NONE of the current parties are truly fit to govern in their own right at present and none of the party leaders instill much confidence either. Sadly we've turned the country into a rather polarised nation with each respective side only interested in what is right for them.... People blame the Tories for this but both they AND Labour have tried to thrive by pointing fingers at each others traditional support base... All Tories are apparently rich, self serving, racist fascists. All Laborites are apparently socialist, radical, lazy handwringing liberals who want to abolish any kind of national identity in favour of a mass free for all where someone who chooses to have 15 kids but never have a job to support them should be equal to someone with no kids and who works 50 hour weeks to be able to afford a home and holidays etc. Lib Dems seem to be the old "new Labour" in disguise and the Greens are still pretty much a single issue party from what I can see. And don't get me started on the SNP.... To my mind we should just scrap the system as it stands... Do away with "party" politics and just have a government whereby each position just has individual applicants for the roles... You could have regional voting to begin with, with each regional "winner" then going into a national election competition for the public to decide who should have the job.... Long winded but at least we may get suitably qualified and experienced personnel in the right roles with some idea of what the hell needs to be done without the bias of party politics.
Agreed - unlike most of yours. It's just a question of what regular forum posters want to read and comment on. However, there is occasionally a need for someone on each club forum to possess additional tools to deal with "tools" - present company excepted of course. Club moderators in the main just exist to assist fellow posters with sticky threads, mistake corrections, deletions etc. For instance now and again there are attempts to spam the forums for commercial reasons or just to create argument. The most any club moderator can do is delete these posts/threads if requested - many are intercepted and dealt with by brb who has a really big tool...... To dispel any possible myths, the individual club moderators have no juristriction over who should be allowed to post and who needs to be given a warning and/or banned for offensive/divisive posts. That is soley down to brb who will only act if requested and then only if he agrees with the request. Historically since I've been a moderator, I've only ever done that once - do you remember John Hughes?
I miss young jonnie. An odious fool....but he did help me get an air of superiorty and wisdom over someone....even if it was only him!!!!! I'm convincesd I saw him once at Stoke. A competely pissed character who had pissed his trousers too. Can't begin to know how he survived...it was bloody freezing and his keks must have been like boards by the time he got to the bus or whatever.....and he msut have smelt to high heaven all the way home!!!!
I've corrected your quoting error in your posting Masky - just because I can......... As to your content, maybe so oh masked one, but out of the mouths of babes and sucklings thou hast pefected praise. (Mathew 21:16)
You’re clearly triggered that someone should query you OS, perhaps even a meltdown situation is occurring? Masky Of Llandaff
Not at all Dom - my meltdown was earlier this week but it's much cooler now thank you. Well something clearly triggered you a few months back when we didn't hear from you for quite a while - did I offend you?
Who is Matthew and how do we know he said it at quarter past nine? Hope it's not that Bound Lurks chappie
Moi? What? Eh? But since you ask, I'd have thought the physicist in you (so to speak) would realise that the answer to your question is relative to varying situations and preferences of any others involved. What is early in some situations could be considered tardy in others.
Sounds like most Cardiff fans to me, I’m surprised he stood out at all, I imagine he just melted into the crowd
Oi!! And I was going to say how much I admired the way you ploughed a lonely furrow on the numerous political threads on your board. I'm not going to now though.
