Thanks sjay.

Your post made me lol too!

christ this is a serious discussion board!

i don't know. i still don;'t like them, don't trust them, won't be voting for them. i want to vote for lib dem, but then does that mean torys will win my seat, get a decent %? i don't want them to get a decent %. i know the idea of a hung pareliment as a practical option has been slated, but as a protest its about all you can ask for...

...so should i vote labour? get a labour seat, hope for the hung option (< hehehe i'm typing as i think tonight) i don't like the labour guy though. glasses and goatee. big no-no :cool:

Malcolm.

*I love all Tories. Maggie is my Ideal Woman. etc


Nothing wrong with Maggie. She's my favourite Simpson.

Whilst I agree glasses and goatee does sound like a fashion faux pas, I'm not sure you should be basing the future of our country on such sartorial judgements.

Isn't she a bit young for you?

Or are you younger than you appear too?

very funny options

i dunno, i just kind of assume all tory men are smarmy/ in denial closet gay/ not on this planet, but neither of those types particularly offends, just kind of amuses- or perhaps ambivalent as lir says :cool:

david cameron.... i think is ok . no real opinion either way, he seems nice enough, but no 'spark' ... (sure he'll be relieved to hear that )

its the women who let the torys down for me. they are pretty much all vile

That would be unlike, Harman, Short, Scotland, Jowell, Blears, Williams or that lunatic, Jenny Tonge?

It's a shame it gets so tribal. Is it because admitting to oneself that they are nearly all vermin is just too depressing?

Oh, I don't know - surely the country is just pining to fall into the hands of such elegance as displayed here...

... no?

I have this sudden urge to tug my forelock and curtsy before going back below stairs....

well if i base it on such issues as policy & the economy carol the choice of facial hair styiling suddenly seems irrelevant give me the johnny depp lookalike, or the harry hill personality, and i'm won over

One can never see that picture too many times, LizEstelle.

What a load of utter prats.

I'm afraid it just gives me an urge to giggle and point; curtseying isn't really in my nature.

Extraordinarily well hidden, certainly.

I don't really know how to corroborate this, but it's exactly what I hear - that he has an extremely good political brain, and that Labour have been targeting him as he is a key part of the Cameron team - hence the "Gideon" attacks etc.

I suppose a similar story can be told of Ed Balls - he's seen as a vital part of Gordon Brown's team, but is pilloried in public.
