  1. This wasn't a general election, although some people seem to be treating it as such. Gove is not to be trusted with anything. Ever.
  2. It beggars belief that anyone would think that anyone who thought that he would come here was serious.
  3. Ah that's different.
  4. I thought they had ambition?
  5. This was not an election, just a big opinion poll.
  6. Do own goals count?
  7. My wife has RBS and is not happy. The annoyance no thing is that Britain had started to work its way back to growth and stability but that's all gone down the pan for the next decade.
  8. I quite liked this from Twitter: 4 hours ago - One joker tweeted: “BoJo Bricks It And Legs It From Brexit.”
  9. Argue with himself?
  10. There's a lot more to it than that. The FTSE250 and the pound are not doing too well. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/business/2016/06/27/why-we-should-be-looking-at-the-ftse-250-and-not-the-ftse-100-to/
  11. Brilliant stuff lads, please keep 'em coming
  12. We should have taken him up on his offer. 11 pints would have done it.
  13. We? Don't blame me.
  14. Welcome Claude. I am now optimistic for the new season. No pressure - Europa League final and a continuation of our customary improvement in final league position please.
  15. Thanks just a posh plank.
  16. I always like a double entendre and you've given us one. The contrast between Crabb and Corbyn is astounding. The leader of the opposition has to be a credible alternative Prime Minister and has to be able to offer a plausible government team. Corbyn is way off either of those . I can see a future for Crabb either as PM or high office.
  17. Make up your mind which side of the Atlantic you're standing on. Having a foot in each continent can get uncomfortable after a while.
  18. I did mention in the preceding post that other cartoons were available. It's just that I couldn't find the one that you're looking for. Scotland wants to decide matters for itself. There's an enormous difference between the Union of the UK and membership of the EU, as you well know. The EU is not a political union in any shape or form. In any case, why should I try to achieve a balance? It's thinking like that that's got Britain into this almighty mess.
  19. Me too. We don't want a Pellexit.
  20. More relevant to Scotland perhaps:
  21. That won't stop the Scots going. Just being told once again what to do by England will be enough. On another note (other cartoons and points of view are available):
  22. True, which is why I can't see us getting anything. I smell a stalemate coming up. No settlement, no Article 50, repeat add infinitum. A letter in the Times this morning pointed out that John Chilcot would be free soon and we should put him in charge of negotiations. That would hold things up for at least ten years.
  23. Free is not the same as cheap so it depends on how much he wants to earn and how it fits into our pay structure. Any new manager will have his favourites and will want to bring some to his new club so the upper management usually allow him some freeway just to show that they are backing him. Didn't he walk out on Hull?
  24. Fair enough. I only hope you're right.
