Wrong. When Churchill rejoined the Conservatives in 1924 there had already been a Labour government. I understand that the Liberal minded Earl Duckhunter at the time kept on banging on about the swamp being drained when Churchill left the Liberals. I bet you wish that you had a decent education.

Another King Edwards .... in a much larger city. You are right about the pettiness of a football forum. I am sure that if there was ever a Saintsweb get together 80% /90% of us would get on fine with each other. The anonymity of the forum leads to the pettiness .... but it is fun isn't it. Mind you .... I am sure that at any get together there would be a queue of people wanting to get a peek at that Guided Missile oddball.

No.It was superior actually.

I wonder if English is his first language. A comma after but. Clearly he missed out on the grammar classes at his posh school.

A question... If people go back on ignore when do they come off ignore so that they can go back on ignore?? I can see why he flunked his A levels but are all Pompey Poly's graduates as thick as him?

Only true believers wanted in the cult.

35. Got caught out on variations of the same team.

With someone like David Miliband in control of Labour we would now be in the third year of a Labour government. They would have cleaned up in 2017. We may still have left the EU (if DM had been Labour leader in 2016 the referendum result would have been different) but the country would be in a better state than it is now. I have never voted Labour but looking at the current state of the Tories I would readily welcome a Labour government under someone like David Miliband.

He charged £2.50 for people to go and watch him surrender today.

You have missed out that brain box Pritti Patel. Is Failing Grayling standing again?? How about David "Mr Lazy"Davis?? Has the Conservative party ever had so many inadequates in top positions??

... just think where the pound would be if there was no Brexit. At least 20 US cents higher and we would all be paying 4 pence a litre for fuel

I was looking at The Geordie web this afternoon - a site for Newcastle fans. There is a weird poster on there called Duckie Lordhunter. He is a Labour supporter but something of a leftie. To the left of Corbyn and in fact I would say that he is a Trot. He is delighted that Austin has left the Labour party and is now advocating voting Tory. He thinks that Austin is a bit of a wet. He keeps on about the Labour swamp being drained and how good the future is for Corbyn. He is rather deluded. Bit of a prat if you ask me but he reminds me of someone .... not quite sure who.

That is interesting.

A good question. Until the list of costituencies where the pact is to take place is announced it is difficult to predict the effect with certainty but the Greens and Plaid Cymru don't look like benefiting electorally. PC may hold onto their marginal seat of Ceredigion (104 majority) without a Lib Dem opponent but as Lib Dems are the main opposition there it is difficult to see how that benefits the Remain cause. Elsewhere in Wales I cannot see how the pact gains PC any seats. The Greens presumably hope that they will gain support in their Bristol west target. They did well there in the Euro elections but the sitting Labour MP has a huge majority. Lib Dem votes there were low in 2017. So where will the Lib Dems benefit? They could hold onto their mid Wales by election victory but there are not many places where the Greens and PC were sufficiently numerous last time to make a difference. Isle of Wight perhaps but the sitting Tory there has a huge majority. Perhaps Bercow's Buckingham seat? Overall therefore, much as I like the theory, I cannot see the pact making much difference.... HOWEVER I have based this conclusion on the results from 2017. It is very possible that the Brexit debate over the last 2 years has confused things sufficiently so that everything is up for grabs.

Today of all days considering what has happened with Cairns is not the day for Tories to gloat about covering up sex scandals.

He predicts so much and so often it must be nice for him to get something right. A pity that he can't apologise for being so wrong about the Grenfell Tower victims. Perhaps he is Jacob Rees Mogg in disguise!

The Conservatives are fast becoming a weird political cult rather than a political party. True believers of Brexit are the only people admitted to the cult. They seem to be forgetting the middle of the road , floating voters who are not devout believers. I think it is sad that a broad church is now the home of such zealots. Unfortunately the main opposition party is going the same way so the choice at this election is not easy for anyone who is in the middle.

Rees-Mogg sorry for saying Grenfell victims lacked common sense https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2019/nov/05/jacob-rees-mogg-claims-grenfell-victims-lacked-common-sense? .... nice to see that some bigoted cloud cuckoo land right wingers can apologise for their comments on Grenfell Tower.

I may be wrong but I thought that one of the issues was if Scotland were to join the EU they would be obliged to join the Euro. To me that would not necessarily be a bad thing but that could cause a few issues for many people !!

The BBC Have referred to "Southampton's impressively strong defence" Have never read that before.

I have never read so much pony in my life. Clarke. An extremist !! He has voted more often for Brexit than Johnson. You really live in a strange world.

Another Trot sleeper who infiltrated the party. It's a good job that Johnson is playing a blinder and sorting them out.

Yes. There should be no place in the Conservatives for closet Socialists like him. He may have been in the party all his adult life and a Conservative MP for decades but he is clearly a Trotskyist sleeper who has infiltrated the party.
