Challenger

Have been gathering up all the propaganda leaflets shoved through my letterbox from both major parties and from ones I'd never heard of. Decided this morning to read them all as if I was not from this country and had no idea of what's gone before, just to see what policies appeal. Apart from and Idea to introduce a 99p coin, the Loons came out on top.

A message to all pubs and supermarkets. Flog your beer and burgers as quick as you can, can't see this lot lasting much longer.

Not sure whether to watch the second half or tackle that baked-on bird shit on the car windscreen.

I once worked for a company which announced it was intending to redecorate the canteen,the choice of colour was either to be lemon or blue. Everyone was totally indifferent to either until a rather dislikeable, gobby member of staff piped up with the comment that it would have to be blue as lemon was a "poof colour". That made everyone else's mind up and for weeks later the whole site was festooned with graffiti, banners and various other notices all displaying the same simple message, " Vote Lemon ! "

Let's be honest, that was a dire team that played dire football.

Ha, ha it must be my wishful thinking wanting to get an extra two days entertainment on here !

Hi , apologies for the late reply as I was out of posts, I don't consider even a few quid worth it just to argue that bit more on here. Anyway to your question, yes I am one and the same . So can you trust me on what I say ? I ask that because that's the same dilemma you will have on July 4th , stood in the polling booth with that pencil in your hand. Could be a thick cunt on my political views, a thick cunt on thinking a forum poll is anonymous, a liar, hypocrite or just someone that would ( successfully ) invoke a reaction amongst a few people who don't appear to have much else in life other than insist their views are accepted on this forum . Anyway, be it politics, angling or just getting a reaction, remember just get the right bait in the right place at the right time and you're sure to get a bite. Do you know Farage is a keen angler ?

No, I choose to vote for NONE of them. You are so eager to throw in an aggressive retort, you can't even bother to read the comment properly and insinuate others are thick cunts . Jesus.

Has anyone got any idea what they are going to " get " with any of the others ? I personally for the first time in my life don't think any party is worth a fuck in this election.

Labour will win with a large majority SNP will win the Scottish vote with a large majority, Swinney will immediately squinney that it's a mandate for an independence vote. Abbot, Corbyn Farage and maybe even Galloway will win their seats and will get a disproportionate amount of media coverage as if they are Prime ministers in waiting. NI will continue it's divided way and Wales will still have a leadership that nobody can remember. Sunak insists on staying on as Tory leader in order to win the following election, but will not last until then. Very little, if anything will improve.

Anything half decent in the knockouts and this lot are cooked.

It's not going to be coming home this tournament either, is it ?

A two finger aputation to be fair. Thought he would give his Flymo blade a flick when it jammed.

What a plethora of crap we have spread before us to vote for on July 4th.

Ah, pub grub 2024 style . An expensive work of art that leaves you still hungry and not too sure what it was anyway, bastards.

Let's be honest, we're going to exchange one set of useless pricks for another. Could waste our vote on some other lot I suppose , lucky we live in a democracy that we can do so.

Putin really needs to put the spade down now. He's dug such a deep hole for himself that even a direct nuke hit probably won't effect him down there, hope he's stocked up on enough pot noodles to see him through.

Indeed and SR have said that they have learnt and will not be making the same mistakes as before.

Yeah and Swinney can whip off his skirt and get back home and do some campaigning.

Jock fans sobering up quickly now.

Normally an Anglophobe or a loon.

See if the " Mirror" is interested in that, you could make a few bob.

I also briefly worked with Ian in the Petrochemical industry in the early 80,s. Remember standing around a coffee vending machine next to him and bizarrely Martin Chivers brother, John who was strikingly very similar in appearance to Martin. Quite surprised to hear Ian is still working at 72,I assume not still as a pipefitter.

If anyone is planning a trip to Stanley keep an eye out for the little red and white dwelling called " The Dell" . It's up the hill behind the Globe pub on the right hand side. Tried to put a photo of it on here but I lack the patience and IT skills to do so.

What other context would I use when describing ways to execute a nuclear strike than what I described in my post ? You are correct in your statement regarding having sub launched missiles so you obviously didn't need to ask your first question as you are obviously aware of other methods Unfortunately we only have one "on patrol" vessel and as such only have one "chance" at the nuclear end game, hence the runner up comment. Hope this clarifies things for you, if not I won't be losing any sleep over it .
