As a fully paid up politics junkie, DIY SOS was a far better bet.

The whole farce was a snapshot of how the politicians and hacks treat us.

The Audience were compelled to sit there in stony silence listening to how these three idiots were going to spend their money, Dear God, they were also wired up to some machine to allow MORI to gauge their…[Read more]

Just seen our glorious leader posing outside 10 Downing Street with an unmatched collection of dullards, makeweights, knaves, thieves, varlets, lunatics, nonentities, tramps, vagabonds and assorted oxygen thieves and skin-wastes, a simpering buffoon today launched the most exciting exercise in direct democracy since…

Best campaign poster of the election so far.

As for renewables, well they don’t really work, wind power is expensive and useless in high winds as well as no wind, also the windfarms built offshore are sinking into the sea amazingly enough.

So the choices are coal or nuclear, both aren’t renewable, but both at least are reliable.

And under the tories it’ll be the wealthy so were f*cked either way

Typical socialist bilge, ever given any thought to how the wealthy spend their money? They spend it getting the little guys like plumbers and electricians to do jobs for them. They set up businesses, employ people, invest in up and coming companies. Labour have…[Read more]

You could always vote conservative.. of course you’ll end up having to have health insurance eventually and you’ll get the treatment you can afford

As opposed to Labour and watching them spend it all on diversity co-ordinators and climate change enhancement advisors?

Face it, the only people to live comfortably under the Labour…[Read more]

It’s a political crime, the state are asking him to enforce their laws, he’s not a policeman, nor a criminal. Nor is smoking a criminal offence, nor is it illegal.

So that makes him a political prisoner for not doing the diktats of the state.

Penalties and fines for breaking the smokefree law

Quiet Man – you got your bags packed and heading for Cuba then ?

Bit warmer there, but it’s like any socialist paradise, totally sh*t to live there unless you’ve got money or are a party member.

Bankrupts have money, they can still work, they still have bills to pay and food to buy. Being bankrupt doesn’t mean you never pay anything else ever in your life.

No but it does mean all your spare income goes into paying your debts until you are discharged after 3 years. The guy has no spare income (Technically) because he’s a…[Read more]

The guy is bankrupt, and had gone to court intending to argue that he could not afford the £500 a month payments demanded by the council towards their £11,600 bill for prosecuting him. He has already paid off £1,600.
As he’s bankrupt, he couldn’t pay the fine and got chucked in prison instead, unlike most bankruptee’s who have them written off by…[Read more]

Actually the solutions very simple, no dole for immigrants until they’ve contributed tax for four years. No child support, no nothing. Four years of actual tax paying over whatever elapsed period, will sort out those who come here to work and those that come here to sponge.

Sorry to hear you’ve had problems bonny lass. Some people in JC seem to feed off others problems causing no end of issues that aren’t relevant or fun for the “victim” but the good thing is that you usually discover who your real friends are.

Btw I’m one of them xxx
