    Of course, the voters turned to the Tories - unless I've imagined that we have a Tory government ?

    It's a ludicrous idea that anyone should have to pay money to a company whose raw materials fall from the sky, free of charge !

    I think Labour have to hope that the SNP landslide is a flash in the pan. If they remain dominant, Labour will be virtually unable to regain power alone. There are no UKIP or Green blocks to target, so they will have to contest directly against SNP or the Tories. In England, voters turned to the more right-wing Conservatives, while in Scotland victory went to the more left-wing SNP - Labour are between a rock and a hard place ! It almost seems irrelevant who wins the leadership - there won't be a Labour PM in the near future. They could gain some ground by splitting Scottish Labour from th

    REALLY........ I ve sha*ged some beautiful married woman off sites like that, they know the score we both married all they want is a good seeing too! Most the ones I ve been with their hubby's are lorry drivers and away at weeks at a time!!I'm a lorry driver. God help any man I catch with my wife..........and your wife ? Take two, after all..... I've never raised my hand to a woman in .y life. She's also the mother of my son, and I'm a massive hypocrite. But I came to terms with that a long time ago... Just teasing, mate - it wasn't a criticism.....

    Did you phone 999, though ?

    My last internet date described herself as a "fox", and when I met her, it was true ! A mangy, ginger-haired dog !

    I have to confess that I've met him a couple of times (albeit some years ago), and he's actually a really nice bloke. Would have to agree that, at least, you could never accuse him of sitting on the fence - a straight question gets a straight answer ! Even if you don't support him, shouldn't more politicians follow his example ?

    I know there's not many Labour supporters here, and I'm certainly not one, but their leadership election has taken an interesting turn. The arch left-winger Jeremy Corbyn is emerging as favourite to become their next leader, taking a lead over Andy Burnham, the early favourite. Before we dismiss him out of hand, look at his record, and you see that he has stood firmly on his principles for many years. For instance, he led the campaign to free the 'Guilford 4', opposes all tuition fees, voted against the Iraq war and in a three month period claimed just £8.54 in expenses ! His constit

    A few years back, I met a girl online.............. She seemed a nice girl at first - attractive profile picture, shared the same interests and we seemed to get on, but when we met we didn't really 'spark', there was no chemistry if you know what I mean. I never did find out why. Shame really.... Wonder what ever happened to BlackSpunkLover8.

    Really?

    I was driving past the bus stop yesterday, and I saw a gull 5hit on a girl in a wheelchair. I thought to myself "How awful!......" "..imagine having to catch the bus !"

    We're all in this together, remember ? This will chuck the cat in with the pigeons..... Let's talk capitalist economics and deficit reduction - the current government's favourite topic. Every previous government has run a deficit, for at least part of it's time in office - every single one. Thatcher ran the largest deficit this country has ever known, and no-one considered it an issue, not even the Iron Lady herself ! This profligacy continued into the debacle that was the Major government, and then along came Saint Tony of Blair. Now everyone, pay attention, here's the interesting

    Not even the arch-capitalist Cameron's "Big Society" ? The "Society doesn't exist" idea is just a Thatcher sound bite. I do agree that capitalism can never make people equal, inequality and injustice are in it's very nature, but can it never bring happiness (whatever that is, and how you measure it) ?

    Your missus puts fuel in the car? What an angel lolMine thinks that when the red light comes on its time for me to take it for a service???????? Just got her a new one with a computer thingy that tells you average mpg, range etc but she says she can't see it without her specs on ffs Cheers, D. I've got a bit obsessive about average mpg lately - the old Kia only managed 32-35 mpg (told you it was a wretched machine !), but the new one is averaging 55-60 ! Going up the motorway to Nottingham later, so should do even better than that.Wish I'd got it years ago. (Did I mention its a Skoda Yeti 2

    That's probably unfair. I don't think Communists have any claim to a monopoly on happiness. Surely, that's all anyone is looking to establish ? Whether you want everyone to be a Communist, or a Fascist, or a Muslim even, surely you hope it will bring happiness to them and the world by following your example ?

    There's some sweaty palms in Cyberland today, after personal information may have been hacked from a dating website for people looking for extra-marital affairs !

    Following the evolution from socialist society into communist society, "the State" would be abolished (as it would be unnecessary). Communism is a social system, rather than a method of government. So, a revolution would eventually render obsolete any politicians who would advocate it............ .......not that I'm an old leftie or anything, you understand !

    That's not priced in proper money, though, is it ? Ok.....a couple of weeks ago it cost me about £20 to drive from brussels to North Essex, is that proper enough? :-) That's better! But what was the total including ferry fare ? Fcuk knows! That's the wife's department ;-).................& it was the shuttle..... You've got a "business manager" too, then ? Yes she's admin & finance & I do all the donkey work..................some things never change ;-) Mine is my bank manager & accountant, as well as my engagements secretary - (ie she has all the money and tells me
