For topping a grown man who seemed to enjoy sleeping and playing with young children, he should be given a medal not a jail sentance.............

Is he paying his own compo for his release?

UKIP set to overtake Lib Dems as 3rd largest party?
Lord Duckhunter replied to trousers's topic in The Lounge
Lib/Dems have always been chancers, they fight Tory seats on the right and Labour seats on the left. Clegg took a holier than thou stand over MP's expenses, yet a Lib/Dem had to resign within days of the coalition. They signed this stupid tuition fee pledge, knowing full well it was meaningless. so it's good that they got their fingers burnt on it. They still want us to join the Euro and are fanaticaly about Europe. Personally, I think UKIP need to broaden their policies.I would like to see a devolved English parliament, a proper cap on immigration, real power given to local people & councils. Neither of the big 2 parties will deliver that I'm hoping that UKIP could start to talk about other things than Europe, because Farage talks a lot of sense on other issues as well. -
What's happening about their Manager, I'm sure there was meant to be an appointment today.

"Colonel Jonathan Campbell-James said he feared for his life after The Guardian printed a story last September with the headline, "UK soldiers linked to torture jail", mentioning his name" Pretty serious if you ask me. Brave senior officer, fearing for his life. But, it's nothing compared to the disgraceful treatment of the Blair's Guru. All papers slander and libel people, all papers get things wrong, and all papers put their own slant on stories. Not just The Sun, Mail and Telegraph.............

The problem with the Guardian is once they hate a person, they seem to stop at nothing to stir up **** about them... and this is what leads to stuff like this. http://www.mediaweek.co.uk/news/475419/Guardian-pays-58000-libel-damages-Abu-Ghraib-abuse-story/ http://www.pressgazette.co.uk/story.asp?storycode=44550 http://www.brandrepublic.com/news/846169/Guardian-apologises-pays-damages-settle-Tesco-tax-case/ So as you can see, even "Right on" papers sink to lows, or does that not count?

It's complicated, Smokey Robinson & the Miracles recorded it first, then Marvin Gaye and then GN & Pips. But the Pips version was realised first , with Gaye's coming after but being the most famous. Gladys Knights is the best IMO, and one of the only songs that will get me away from the bar and onto the dance floor (much to my kids embarresment).

Forget all the nonsense about what she did or didn't do and stick to the meat of the story. Should expremiers be allowed to claim allowences for letters ect connected as a direct result of being PM. Major and Blair also claimed, (Brown is taking money as a back bench MP whilst doing sweet FA for his constituants). Personally, I think there should be an allowence, but it should be lower than the level claimed at present. Johnny Major bought the rules in,and all ex PM's no longer in Parliament are taking advantage.

It's one of the reasons I'm happy at the Chapel. What do these idiots want us to do, save our ticket stubs and bring them as proof of our support over the years. I've got underpants older than some of our "bestest fans". Whether you go every week, or go when you can or when you can afford, or rarely go at all, you're still a Saints fan. My old man followed us in 3rd Division South, but rarely goes now as he's nearing his 80's,but he's still as passionate as the "yoof". They should grow up, or **** off.

Good solid performance, in which every single player played well. I was worried about this one before the game, but it was a stroll.
-
It was a good goal, notr the best I've seen at SMS, but a pretty decent effort. The bloke behind me was moaning at a couple of the sideways passes early on in the move, so he must have felt like a chump when it went in. Credit to RL, his movement and pull back made the goal.

Would rather get 3 points in the League tomorrow,than win in Cup. What would have happened had Nigel played RL all game and he got injured?

As an old fart, I would say that youngsters get quite a large say from the audience. Personally, I believe the programme needs tweaking. I would have a panel of people like Andrew Neil, Kevin Maguire, Jeff Randall and other serious journo's asking questions, rather than the public. I'm fed up with people telling us their situations ."I cant get a job, what are the Govt doing about it" , "Why should I work till I'm 67", " I cant get on the property ladder". The number of times politicans are let off the hook by stupid interventions by the public, both left and right, is frustrating.

Left, right, middle, black, white or green. They should pack up, have a wash, and stop disrupting ordinary people's lives.

At the end of the day, there are only 2 sides to this. You either have the Govt legislating what directors of private companies can earn with some sort of wages policy, or you let private companies decide what they pay. Despite the excess' of a minority of greedy selfish fat cats, I would rather have that, than the Govt poking their nose in and dictating wage structures in private Companies.

I would be interested to see how many of these soap dodgers are claiming benefits.

I thought it was a pretty good show last night. The 2 women on there were completely and utterly hopeless, yet Dimble let them get away with it. Particulary that Lib/Dem women who was quoted from 2007 saying that denying the people a referundum was a travesty of justice. I've noticed the old goat always seems to go abit easy on young women. Where on earth did they dig that Labour bird up from, and what the hell did she do to get so far so fast?

This is exactly what will happen and it will keep on happenening. We will never be given a vote on any European issue if the Establishment have their way.

Here's an idea..... Those of you who think the BBC is good value for money, who would pay to watch all these programmes you're loving, pay a subscription to the BBC. The rest of us can make our minds up whether we want to pay it or not. We could abolish this TV poll tax, and I'd then have a choice on where I spend the £145.50 I am presently forced (with the threat of jail) to cough up for hours and hours of rubbish.

It was a directive from the European Commission, which is an unelected body.

You cant deny people a vote just because they're idiots or bigots.
