I think she can be forgiven for it, only just though.




Hmmm? I really shouldn?t be so hard on the Bishop. A few years ago a young lady once suggested that we go there on our first date. Consequently she agreed to marry me.



Although I?m not sure if what that says about her judgment reflects well or badly on the place.

I was actually refused entrance in there a few weeks back because the management had recognised that I was already in an advanced state of refreshment. Fair enough but probably no more so than 99.9-per-cent of the clientele that were already getting plastered inside it's walls. It's a pub for feck's sake. People go there to get pissed. Oh! How I celebrated. Elsewhere of course.
Blimey, I never knew it was so ill thought of. To be fair I do spend 95% of the time out the back necking tabs so am rarely actually in the place itself. So what do the Camra Pub Snobs recommend instead? Is there a fusty old backwater hostelry that stills sells Manns stout and Hofmeister I didnt know about...ah, those were the days.

    • There was an excellent discussion on Newscast last night between the BBC Political Editor, the director of the IFS and the director of More In Common - all highly intelligent people with no party political agenda and far more across their briefs than any minister I've seen in years. The consensus was that Labour are so unpopular and untrusted by the electorate already, as are the Conservatives, that breaking the manifesto pledge on income tax wouldn't drive their approval ratings any lower, so they should, and I quote, 'Roll The Dice', hope for the best and see where we are in a couple of years time. As a strategy, i don't know whether I find that quite worrying or just an honest appraisal of what most governments actually do in practice.
    • They are a third of the way through their term Earl. It's no good blaming other people anymore. They only have three years left to fix what is now their own mess. And its not just lies in the manifesto. There were lies at the last budget too, when they said that was it, they weren't coming back for more tax and more borrowing. They'd already blamed the increase in NIC taxes on what they claimed was a thorough investigation. They either knew everything then or they lied about that too .   They need to stop lying and start behaving. If they don't the next government won't be theirs, it will be led by Nigel Farage.  They have to turn it round rapidly. Blaming other people, telling lies and breaking promises isn't going to cut it any more.
    • Is it lame? Or is it Lamey? (sorry)
