    nope.

    the Nazi nats can make no guarantees.

    all lies and false promises.

    they are finished, arrogant presumptious clowns, schoolboy errors.

    Great argument you should stand for Westminster.


    Preferably on the fast lane of the M6. <ok>

    Sorry I missed this and only grabbed it again as I've been hoking through (whilst late night pished) but you make a good few points. The problem is I'm still going to chuck money towards celebrity footballers in the morning, because I'm ****ing ******ed like the rest of us. And what's the alternative - tell people that they are too stupid in having their own personal preferences and they must be overruled by a Government?

    Anyway here's a great quote from someone more intelligent than me:

    "To adapt an example from the philosopher Robert Nozick, suppose a million people are willing to pay ten dollars to hear Pavarotti sing and are unwilling to pay ten dollars to hear me sing, in part because of genetic differences between us. Pavarotti will be ten million dollars richer and will live in an economic stratum that my genes keep me out of, even in a society that is totally fair. It is a brute fact that greater rewards will go to people with greater inborn talent if other people are willing to pay more for the fruits of those talents. The only way that cannot happen is if people are locked into arbitrary castes, if all economic transactions are controlled by the state, or if there is no such thing as inborn talent because we are blank slates"

    I have no idea what a cymbal is, but the Queen and Royals will still be head of state in Scotland for the foreseeable future, meaning that they will probably still have Orange Parades, and even if the OO stop existing, your fellow Dhims will still have their own Republican Parades which are just as bad a blight on Scotland if not worse.

    It's true, such is London's dominance over the rest of the UK.

    That is because Strathclyde was abolished in 1996. So, Boris is quite correct.

    Fleg Fury is all pervasive in NI culture apparently.

    Scots Independence and all she's worried about is changes to a flag.

    Good schools but.
