Plus useless actors, sports people, media luvvies, & those who have just done a well paid job which brings them into the spotlight!

The ‘wrong snow’ excuse was also a valid reason. It was genuinely freaky at it destroyed the train motors. Look it up.

As for Peter Hain. His statement is correct. There is no big or rather new enthusiasm for Conservatism in Wales. Labour went down massively. If you wish to convince me that Cameron goes down well westside you would need some props and hallucinogens. Me likes neither Hain nor our Rail companies but methinks you unfair.

‘Labour voters stayed at home’ . . . that old chestnut !
Gordon and his band of brothers are becoming more and more like
a bloody dictatorship, i sometimes think we’ll never get shot of him
and if we do there’s just another group of lying, coniving, theives waiting in the wings to take over and award their peerages to another bunch of charlatans.

There is nothing intrinsically wrong with the honours list – as long as none of them ever get near to the upper house! That way no government can stack the deck and so get away with murder.

“…if you tried to leave via the Berlin Wall or the border you got shot dead.”

The old news story…”the East German Pole Vault champion, is now the West German champion”

Henry spot on

I hear that it’s basically made up of cabinet members …. so nice that Gordon is taking the initiative in telling us the type of democracy and accountability he wants!!

A brilliant album by Diana Jones has a song called ‘If I Had A Gun’ on it:
“If I had a gun, you’d be dead
One to the heart, one to the head”
sums up what should happen to this most authoritarian, anti-democratic bunch of thieves.

National Democratic Council? Sounds like something from East Germany which was the Democratic Republic of Germany once upon a time. It was far from democratic and if you tried to leave via the Berlin Wall or the border you got shot dead.

Its a Tragedy waiting to happen.

I have a kind heart and I quite fancy being a baron. I expect AR wouldn’t mind leading a French invasion force if we asked nicely.

For a party who vowed to overhaul the House of Lords and abolish an outdated system of patronage, there actions of late speak louder, and more hypocritically than words.
