The clock won't happen.

Corpse Ho?

Or feeble minds seldom differ. Which in this case, and with this musical taste, might be nearer the mark...?

So does delldays.

She has. It's called cynical playing to the gallery: support the no-hope, popular choice, then push out the crocodile tears when that choice is not given a sniff of a chance. You wait and see.

Tesco now claim the ad is a mistake, and that they meant 'work experience' not 'permanent'. Either way, and beyond being crappy, worthless employers, Tesco are the worst kind of benefits scrounger - getting the government to pay their wage bills.

That leaves the question of your wealth little too open. Anyone on housing benefit could provide better evidence of long-term financial stability than the oddballs who keeping popping up down the road.

My eyes!!!!!!!!!!!

More often a cover for things it doesn't want people to know to avoid embarrassment. A bit like you being a minor cog in a wheel that has kept Mugabe in power in Zimbabwe. (Hint: who benefited from the nationalisation of the tobacco farms in early 2000s? Step forward a company you should know well: BAT).

Qatada is the beneficiary, if that's the word, of an 'arrangement' whereby evidence gathered by intelligence agencies is not made available to the courts. Nowhere else in Europe is such a restriction tolerated. Only in the US - where not a single prosecution has resulted from the numerous 'rendition' and torture scandals - is such a restriction tolerated. The British intelligence services are still - after 9/11 and 7/7 - more concerned with clinging on to this privilege than with bringing idiots like Qatada to court. They claim it is 'essential', yet fail to explain why the rest of Europe, or Israel for that matter, manage to get by without it. I have no doubt that if MI5 or 6 had revealed what they knew in a court of law, Qatada would have been convicted long ago.

West Ham being one of them?

Catchy.

11th man then.

No, he'd have to be re-educated. Otherwise the gulag awaits. (Or it would be if he were not long dead.)

I'm willing to make an exception with Borges.

Oh they would - just to get shot of those cretinous overners.

Why does that surprise you O Lord of the Long Wind? Borges is one of us.

We could end all these arguments tomorrow. Tell the Argentinians that Britain keeps the Falklands and they can have the Isle of Wight.

Agreed. This is a less deserving cause. As the great Argentinian writer Borges said, Britain and Argentina fighting over the Falklands is like two bald men fighting over a comb.

Make your mind up, Lord T. Do you want him to shut up or to go on 'ranting'?

I'm not sure we're quite there yet. His Redknapp-style spelling could be taken to mean that you're 'incorrect' except about Derek, or you 'is correct' except about Derek. He sounds like a Derek to me, so I'm going with that.

Que? Ok, in your parlance, and to quote you: "Del_Binaco is a rasist." A Spell-checker might go some way to hide your inadequacy, if that helps. Anyway, you're forgetting our agreement: that you reserve the right to be a racist scumbag without being called one. That's why you post so obsessively on threads like this one, hectoring and wannabe-bullying anyone who objects to racist abuse.

Are you drunk? You've quoted yourself, but with even more evidence of pre-teen abilities in spelling and punctuation.

The sad thing is they don't even qualify as trolls. Sneering and pathetic attempts at bullying directed toward anyone who objects to racist abuse is about as much as these geniuses can manage. As you say, time to lock.

In the interests of Saintsweb full members, would you PLEASE stop?! If you and Lord Tender start firing such massive chunks of hifalutin pomposity at each other, Baj is going to need more servers. And our subs will go up.
