Christmas Tree

The 50 grand Lexus was a solitary command vehicle carrying 30 grands worth of surveillance equipment, to be used to tackle serious crime, not to hand out tickets (a tinge of bitterness there?). What type of cars do you think people involved in organised crime drive? Seems like a sensible use of money to me, as a lifelong tory I'd have thought you'd want to have the police equipped with decent equipment so they can do their job? Like me you probably have no idea what that means with regard to needing a Lexus and dont forget they do have helicopters! The other stories strongly cast doubt on the veracity of Cameron's personal anecdotes; either that or he has a memory problem. Besides, don't you find these stories just a bit cringeworthy? Unbelievavble. Not quite getting the right age of a stranger strongly casts doubt.....Take the blinkers off. And I do recall Both the other two dragging up anecdotes. 'Can't wait til he's pm' - you're the first person I've heard that rates him at all. We're in the biggest recession in living memory and he's really struggling - seriously, casting aside your dislike of Labour, what gives you confidence in his ability to govern? Your mixing in the wrong circles. All the opinion polls have him ahead of Brown so the the majority of people asked obviously rate him. And the reason the polls have him struggling is probably down to people unsure whether its better the devil you know, not that I agree with that, but given the shit so many families are in, its understandable. On top of that theres the total apathy to politics brought about lately by the fraudulent MP's. Then theres the fact he looks like (and maybe is) a smarmy bastard. Regardless, the country is crying out for a change, needs a change, needs putting right after 13 years of waste and 5 more years of dregs of the barrel Labour MPs would be no good at all.

How sad and typically Guardian. 1. I've often seen police driving around in rediculously expensive cars that are not essential to giving out tickets. Do they really need jags, lexus's etc? Do they bollox. 2. So in the heat of a historic debate he says 40 year old rather than 49!!! Just a big fat oh dear. 3. Pathetic really. Can't wait til he's pm

What a knob There's something about people of that age that obsess over that song though, I just find it annoying. My sister is his type of age 39/40? She fucking loves that song, and worships in my opinion the most overrated Irish film ever, and I know a load of other older people who love it, "The Commitments". young'uns of today!!! It's a cracking song and a cracking film.

Just a shame every other club is looking for a similar owner also. Nobody in their right mind is going to touch a premiership club in the near future.

10, 9, 8, 7.......

What's pro Ashley about it you old git

Are we ok to start making jokes about peoples travel chaos or do we have to wait until the dust settles.

My mate was due to leave oz to come home today. They have told him the first guaranteed seat is 9th may, however he, his wife and two kids, can ring the airport each day from the 20th April to see if there are any stand by seats.

Anyone know any details on this. 45 year old worker volountarly attended south shields police station with regard to death at St michaels home, westoe. Police now looking into 15 other deaths their !!!!!! Only caught the end of it on Radio 4

Should have listened....... Could have been pushing for Europe by now.

About to do the walk of shame to a morrisons breakfast. Went out for a quiet drink with daughters yesterday teatime and last remember banging out Mustang Sally on a Karaoke in Shields Town Centre at 1.00am. Ouch

Errr it was the bankers and financiers that left the country in the state it's in. Who removed restrictions from the bankers Yeah let's ignore responsibility of the public who embraced the credit card/buy to let culture which was the real cause - easier to blame the government. Thats why we have governments and laws. Public would bring back hanging in a flash so that argument is no good.

Just to add that "no bra" picture is bollox..... They would be all over the place causing serious damage

Hereditary peers for one

You dont say Sherlock Is that not somewhat ironic coming from a tory? Labour and Tories both as bad as each other tbh and this thread helps to prove it. How does this thread prove it though? One thing I can't stand is this lazy belief there's no difference between the parties, it's like you're making an excuse to be apathetic. Of course there's differences - although both parties have moved towards the central ground there's still a clear ideological line drawn between them. We'll find that out soon enough if the tories are elected. Memories are short it appears. Thats just waffle tbf... What would be better would be for you to explain how this ideological line manifests itself in actual policy.

The tories are corrupt before they get in man. Look at the shadow cabinet... Hague Has the stink of the Ashcroft affair hanging around him. Osborne Has the Deripaska claim, and he was one of the MPs to have 'flipped' his home in the expenses scandal. Grayling A mess. Made hundreds of thousands in the expenses scandal. Says B&B's should have the right to turn away gay couples. Cooks the numbers on crime. and.... On 7 October 2009 he was asked by the BBC about a Conservative Party plan to offer General Sir Richard Dannatt an advisory role. He, thinking it was a Labour appointment, said he hoped it was not a "political gimmick", and said "We've seen too many appointments in this government of external people where it's all been about Gordon Brown's PR.". When he realized he had misheard the question, and that it was a possible appointment of his own party, he said he was "really delighted" with the idea, adding "It's a bit embarrassing really because I would have liked to give General Dannatt a more enthusiastic welcome." Pickles had to pay back £300 following the expenses scandal. Lansley Another flipper Spelman Nannygate Received £40,000 for cleaning and bills for her constituency home, despite being her main home. Gove Another flipper Fox Ridiculous expenses claims (£19,000 on his mobile phone) Twice admitted to breaking parliamentary rules. These are just the ones I've looked at so far. Every one of them, a twat. I could keep going. Heres some more for you, unfortunateley too much Labour Sleaze to copy and Paste so I'll just link http://www.labour-watch.com/sleaze.htm
