Donald Dead Cat On Is Head Trump
I'm even old enough to remember when he said he'd totally obliterated their nuclear capability, and set them back decades, the first time round

You won't find me disagreeing. The problem we have these days, is that a lot (not all) of those who didn't vote Labour, seem to take great delight in every single bit of bad news for the country that is published. Was/Is the same with Brexit, and will also be the same with whoever is in power next time.

I've just looked at that, what an incredible amount of money they reckon could be saved. Perhaps this is the way forward, but again, is it a vote loser......although, if they remove all voting rights when you hit 70 (which they should, as they're voting for something that probably won't affect them) then maybe it'll be a vote winner 😀

Politics - Part 2
Agreed, but as soon as anybody mentioned "tax rises" then all hell breaks loose, as the other parties will be all over them (even though they'd have to do the same) It would be nice, but will never happen, if things like the NHS and MOD were cross party, or an attempt at it anyway - we have real short term thinking on these matters, as the major parties only ever think in 5 year cycles

as @Cheese has said, several times, if/when Reform get in, it's going to be most amusing watching them shit on the gullible thickos who will be responsible for voting them in. They're not even attempting to hide what they'll do, yet they'll still get votes.......in the hope it stops boat people coming in (which it won't)

Epistocracy is what we want, don't let thickos or poor people anywhere near any major decisions. Or we could, as the current system seems a bit shit, go for the Demarchy system, imagine, we could have @little whitt , @Spider or @gonzo running the place, what's the worst that could happen

100% they do, and I'm not defending anybody here, but where does/will this money come from? - And, as I'm sure somebody will pipe up with "stop housing boat people".....I'm not sure that's the immediate answer. We need a ring fenced MOD budget, and it probably needs to be higher than we have at present, but which public services should be cut?

Are they going with no sponsor? I like the kit, but it could look a bit. shit if they splash something across the front

World Cup Betting
Oyazorbal (or however you spell it) leading goal scorer and Spain to win it 33/1 Also, and I know it's got no chance, but 66/1 for 1+ goal in every game at the W/C

I'm looking forward to it So I don't have to wait for their manifesto, can you let me know what these cards will be, you seem so sure, so you must have some inkling If/When they get in, I expect them to perform as inadequately as the last few have, especially as they have zero experience (other than that of those you suggested earlier have been useless for the last few decades, who have switched party in recent times) - I'm glad you think everything will be great, I'm not convinced

I agree to a point, but if the big 2 are decimated, then that leaves no viable opposition - and we know that's bad, we know that from when recently both Labour and Tory have had landslide victories At least you're now able to admit, that those you used to champion were also pretty useless

The Managerial Roundabout
3 promotions in 4 years, not bad that.

No shock there, but their supporters really don't seem to care, it seems

Fund Me - Tommy Needs Us (and our money)
He's on the payroll of Israel and Russia, that's clear, yet millions seen to hang off his every word, and consider him a "patriot" - it's all very odd

I was hoping he'd settle for the mythical "pay as you play" deal

He won't have a choice, thankfully.
