Most (though not all) of the arrangements were decided by the Gordon Brown government.


Probably, as you say, to piss off Galloway. And Dennis Skinner.

UKIP is the reason why universal suffrage isn't always to be celebrated.


A party with no policies or competence that gets a tick for government from 15% of the population.


I do them the favour of refusing to remember their names, Louisa does otherwise it seems.

It's not just religion, it's testosterone. MT had both as does TB.


A short true story.

An American friend of mine lives on her own on an island. When she was 98, she was taken poorly and taken to the mainland. They asked her what day it was, where she thought she was, and who was the President.

She got the first two, and refused to answer the third.

Getting very concerned for her mental health they kept asking her.

Finally, she yelled out, "Don't make me name that son of a bitch". (It was Geroge Dubbya).

She's about 101 now and doing fine.

Didn't see Tone today but he converted to catholicism when he was no longer PM. I felt this was a very similar move to Prunella Scales and Timothy West nailing their red colours to the mast as soon as their youngest left Alleyn's.

Whichever political party dares to withdraw tax payer funding from faith schools will get my vote- no other questions asked.

    • I don't know how it works now but my late parents had little money when they were retired (just state pension and they rented their flat) and they used to take their cat to the Blue Cross (In Victoria if I remember correctly) where treatment was free for those who could'nt afford a private vet. I sincerely hope similar is available still because for many elderly their pet is their main source of comfort and company.  
    • In a couple of places locally, I have come across this. I am fairly sure that they attempt to do the bill in their head. If you just say , “no, I think it’s x” they start again and get to an agreeable number, or find a calculator. I don’t think it’s a malicious attempt to swindle people. Just not great arithmetic.
    • There are excellent charities like the Greenwich Wildlife Network who will help if you report any concerns with local wildlife. Foxes are wonderful creatures who had been forced into our town and cities and are just doing their best to survive, we should take care of them when we can. 
    • Like I thought… prob like that for most of the day.. especially after people had walked their dogs, with friends, relatives  kids…
