  1. Praise be to god that you didn't say block 40.
  2. http://www.welsh-premier.com/index.php/headline-news/1893-board-discusses-chesters-application Chester apply to enter the Welsh Premier League.
  3. In this digital age all my clocks change automatically. However, that often leaves me panicking that they won't!
  4. Tea on the first day, 243/2. Carberry made 30 on debut, on the radio they said he looked good, but got out playing an aggressive shot. Cook has made a ton, and Pietersen has made 50!!
  5. No, what it goes to prove is that a PR government doesn't lead to financial disaster, whereas Ashcroft's Tories are trying to say PR/hung parliament would lead to economic collapse - and he has successfully bought you.
  6. This is a complete load of tosh.
  7. Go to CAB, but also write to your MP (although a lot of them are rather busy at the minute!!).
  8. Getting on at Bath.
  9. It is not possible to PM you!!
  10. Remember, the only party planning to raise taxes after the election is Ashcroft's Tories (luckily he's avoided paying £127million in tax, so he won't mind too much). VAT up to 20% should they form a government. Another tax rise which will hit the poor much harder.
  11. Looks like you have been bought by Ashcroft and are incapable of rational thought. Greece and the UK. Two "strong" governments. The two countries with the biggest debt problem in Europe. The facts bear it out. You have been bought, but others won't be.
  12. Michael Howard was a disaster, and his manifesto was one of the most disgusting, right-wing, sound-bite ridden manifestos of recent years. And guess who wrote it? That's right. David "Call me Dave" Cameron.
  13. This is actually the biggest load of codswallop being spread around at the moment. The Tories want you to believe it, and if you do, you have been bought by their spin machine and their friends in the media. Two countries in Europe currently have the type of "strong" government brought by the FPTP system. They are the UK and Greece. Wonder what else they have in common? Don't get bought by Tory spin.
  14. You have big issues if you think Daily Mail readers care about invasion of privacy.
  15. You are not much of a social liberal if you don't think you can make a difference where it counts! Political fights are never easy. Current governments have opposed social liberalism at every stage for many years, but the tide is turning. More and more people are fed up by the depressing, self-serving, centre-right politics of Labour and the Conservatives. We can debate which is the lesser of the two evils, but neither are good for the country or it's future. The Football Supporters Federation is about to hold/just held a big debate on how football fans are treated. Top liberal campaigner Henry Porter was invited on the panel. Small 'l' liberals are increasingly part of all meaningful debate.
  16. I'm sorry, but perhaps you have confused "social liberals" with the Liberal Democrats. You shouldn't make this mistake. Social liberals are members of all parties, but are very concerned about the parliamentary parties of Labour and the Tories and their cosy consensus politics.
  17. I disagree with this. There may be a cosy consensus between Labour and the Conservatives, but that centre-right consensus doesn't mean it is the end of ideological debate. Social liberals in Britain and Europe are challenging the consensus. There is much debate to be had, especially in the area of civil liberties, but also in taxation and criminal justice. These debates are far from closed.
  18. I think you'll find MOST of the dissent came from the Liberal Democrats.
  19. I imagine that fans across the world would unite to keep technology out of football It isn't wanted, nor needed. Don't ruin our game.
  20. The roll was pretty decent, to be fair.
  21. Technology in football is just another aspect of turning the game into a business, rather than the sport it is an should be. It would be something that would ruin the game even more, taking it away from the fan and towards the TV company. We must keep technology out of football. Edit: And, quite frankly, can anyone give me a sport using video technology where the decision of the video official has NEVER been questioned?
  22. Sadly not, but it is still a 26/1 double. Not as good as you'll get now, but not to be sniffed at.
  23. I've got an ante-post double on Zaynar and Punchestowns. Since I placed it, Zaynar finally managed to lose and Punchestowns might not even run (saw this headline in RP on Saturday, but haven't yet had a chance to find out what is going on). Happy days.
  24. The first genuinely good decision FIFA has made in some time. Keep technology out of football.
  25. No pubs in Tranmere are competing for this award, I can tell you!
