    I think you apply on line to go. They made up their affiliations on the applications and turned up in full regalia. I can't imagine the BBC would want the embarrassment of barring them. They just edited them out of the programme.

    Super Tuesday in USA and the nightmare prospect of Donald Trump winning the Republican nomination may well come true after today's votes. Hillary Clinton looking equally likely to be the Democratic nominee begs the question that in a country of 300 million why can't they find two nominees better than these?...

    It's bloody expensive for a start. Would be great news for the Democrats if Trump somehow wins the Rep vote.

    That's true, however I'm not sure that the US public are ready for a female President. I think that - in an ideal world - Trump-Clinton (or Trumpton, as I think of it, because it's all a cartoon) would result in an overwhelming victory for 'None of the above'. As that's not possible, I fear for the next four years whatever the result.

    If they were ready for a black president twice, why not a woman? Plenty to fear from Trump, but it would be more of the same from Clinton.

    He may have fallen short in a lot of what he wanted to do, but I do like Obama.

    He didn't start any wars, but that just characterises him as 'weak'.

    I believe he speaks highly of you as well Tim.......<doh>

    Back on subject I honestly thought that Americans (Republicans) had more sense about voting for Trump, but clearly not.......

    He really is though, however 100% with you about Trump the thought that one day the Russians will still have Putin, the Americans might have Trump and we might have............Boris. Well it's quite frightening

    Must admit I don't often get the chance to read his piece in the main Sunday Times, but I tend to like his column in the Sport section as he seems to aline himself with the normal fan in the street, thought his piece last Sunday about the attendances at lower league and non league games was spot on.......

    No, but I'm beginning to form a similar opinion about people that keep going on about what they think of him...

    Right lads enough of the asterix (****) name calling towards Rod Liddle, it ain't big and it ain't clever, unless off course you know him personally and you've addressed him in such a manner to his face..........

    Can we get back on subject......
