Me too. Two Labour parliaments is about all that the country can survive.

But it takes one voting MP away from one of the parties.

Major did at least win a General Election.

Are you suggesting that Germany's economic prowess is due to them having PR?

Photovoltaic panels convert light energy into electricity which then has to be converted, stored or transmitted to somewhere else and does none of these very efficiently. Solar heating uses the heat energy to preheat water and reduces fuel used on the boiler.

Thanks for reminding me, for a moment I was worried. I always avoid BA but I've used up my airmiles for flights to Bermuda for our 40th anniversary in September. They are from Gatwick :-)

How does the choice of Speaker affect the arithmetic?

Fair comment.

Why don't you two get a room?

In which case there will be a country left in ruins.

In my view the most likely outcome is a minority Con government with 'supply and support' from the Libs, i.e. backing them in a confidence vote and budget bill. That way they can distance themselves from the nasty decisions and still claim that it's what the country needs at the moment. I still expect a re-run in October.

Sorry, but we all have to be careful of the pedants. We can only take account of those who voted.

No! Who else was in it?

It's not quite that simple.

That lot get too much of our money already. Time to get rid of the Scottish mafia and have an English Parliament.

Once again, we agree on something! Sometimes the only way to reform a company that has ingrained working practices is to close it down and start again. It happened with the car industry.

The country will not accept another unelected Prime Minister, and if the Libs prop up Labour yet again they will be back to a handful of MPs and the 'Taxi'. Brown has no chance of getting a PR vote through the commons. If this were to go ahead there would be riots.

Isn't that how it happens in school sports days?

Shouldn't that be a quarter of those who voted?

No, but I can work a bit of magic when I have to.

No, there was strong Treasury advice against. He has actually lost more than Black Wednesday.

Yes, Portuguese and Catalan have a J and not an H

It's not worldwide everywhere and if it was no fault of the (ex)government, why did they claim that only they could get us out of it?

As opposed to what? A permanent recession in the communist economies?

But with no FA cup to show for it!
