  1. T4 bacteriophage
  2. who ?
  3. The Israeli version of Strictly Come Dancing is about to get it's first lesbian celebrity, she will be dancing with a female professional.
  4. R&B is Rhythm & Blues - what they are talking about is more like an evolution of Philadelphia Soul. What does R&B refer to in this context anyway ?
  5. I am still looking forward to THAT party once the old ratbag finally shuffles off.
  6. radius
  7. I'd certainly put him behind Thatch, but that's a personal view. I suppose it all depends on how long 'living memory' is.
  8. He is a politician - In the next 5 years we will get just as much BS and deception from the ConDems as we got from Labour. They are all the same, as Paull Weller wrote "You choose your leaders and place your trust As their lies put you down and their promises bust".
  9. The biggest b4lls-up Gordon Brown made was his claim to have ended 'boom & bust'. Too many things were/are beyond the direct control of a CofTE to make such a statement.
  10. Or even follow the lending guidelines the Government have suggested.
  11. purple (l)
  12. Without which intervention the bankers would have completely crashed their empire of illusions and sleight of hand. They were being far too clever for their own good, and the Government was forced to borrow to bail them out.
  13. Probably nowhere near the figure you would like it to be to support your argument. A few less luxury kitchen salesmen & Porsche dealers, maybe one 3 Michelin starred restaurant closes. Most of these bonuses would be either spent abroad when they go on their holidays to exotic and exclusive destinations, or squirreled away in Monagesque mansions and off shore bank accounts.
  14. Nowhere near as many as are dependent on the lowest quartile ( by income ) spending theirs.
  15. Dorset County Council are the largest employer by far, and I suspect the NHS, Police, West Dorset District Council etc will employ quite a few out the population of just over 16,000.
  16. We are needed to balance out the fascists.
  17. Who do they pay that to ? Other banks and international monetary agencies. HM Treasury spent over £109Bn in keeping them running in the 2008-2009 financial year, what with buying shares, making loans, and guaranteeing insurance on bad debts, etc. They should shoulder the burden of the interest on that amount, it comes to nearly 20% of the total Government spend.
  18. And add into the mix that the job losses won't be evenly spread; for instance if RAF Lossiemouth closes, how much will that area's local private economy be able to absorb ? What happens to the BAe sites that are closing due to the cancellation of Nimrod ? I want to know the details of exactly how much, personally, Cameron, Clegg, & Osborne will be suffering. After all, it's supposed to be about everybody paying their 'fair' share, and they can afford a darned sight more than I can.
  19. However much of the debt was borrowed to prop up the banks - make them pay the interest charges that amount accrues.
  20. Celtic
  21. You are far more entertaining in the evening
  22. granny
  23. -culture
  24. dory ( Who else is watching Masterchef ?)
