You’re grabbing at straws there Col
Similar to your QPR team selection re possible players you don’t rate
currently you naughty tinkerer
A visa doesn't stop one travelling.
Also, many of those who voted leave aren't concerned about little Jemima having her gap year around Europe.
About the only Tory personality I like is Jacob Rees Mogg as he can handle the media easily. I also don’t detect any fluff with the bloke
Of course you are right but I haven’t heard of any blueprint scheme yet and the subject is a lot more complex imo
Is Little Jemma a Tory starlet?
It's a bit wider than posh kids on gap years. If (quite a big if) Brexit ****s our involvement in the Erasmus programme we'll be poorer for it in more ways than one.
Thank you Colin
I will try and catch a match soon and buy you and SB73 and 9s a meal
Over it I will bring you signed copies of my new books:
Transcendental Meditation in modern football
How to rebuild England with a credit card
Very Big Birds
Has this been done yet?
Even the signage has told Mrs May to F OFF

Class envy! I knew you were red at heart Col.
No fluff, he’s 100% hardcore Catholic. I don’t detect much other content.
I don’t think you can tell until they have had a position of responsibility in government for a bit, which I doubt Rees Mogg will ever have. To be honest I have no model of what a politician should be like. Willy Brandt perhaps.
You often hint at this mate and I have to say that you're quite wrong. I have no problem with people with money at all. It just seems to me that an awful lot of people who voted remain are wealthy and were simply voting because of their love of their money and their fear of becoming poorer. My step daughter lives and works in Sweden and all power to her.
Perhaps my posts appear to show class envy and I'll think about that in the future, as it certainly isn't the case.
I actually think that Rees Mogg does at least have conviction and I quite like his forthrightness. However, I disagree with him on many things he says.
I was only joking on the class envy mate. I’m tempted to respond on the split on the wealth of who voted for what, but that’s all history now. I don’t consider myself wealthy but in relative terms I am well off. And I am worried about the impact of Brexit on how comfortable my retirement will be. But to be honest there are loads of things that could **** that up, not just Brexit.
As I said to DT, we will only know if Jake gets a position of responsibility. I will say this for him, the image is carefully cultivated, he is self aware and has a good sense of humour.
Just seen some of May’s speech. Actually felt sorry for her, she seems very fragile and isolated.
It wasn't all that long ago that David Cameron called Ed Miliband a 'marxist' for proposing a freeze on energy prices, now Theresa May announces a price cap. She also made policy announcements on social housing, organ donors, tuition fees and mental health - all of them in response to popular Corbyn initiatives. Hers are pale imitations of course, but it goes to show how rattled the Tories are by Labour's resurgence. Maybe the centre-ground really has shifted leftwards.
She was also wearing a bracelet featuring self portraits by the Mexican artist Frida Kahlo. Who was of course a real revolutionary communist and one of Trotsky’s lovers. A very interesting lady. Kahlo that is.
