I love Boris, but he is a clown. Also, he lost his cabinet position for lying to his own leader, and his CV includes the alienation of the whole of Liverpool and Portsmouth.
Are you one of those people who called for Flintoff to be England's cricket captain, or Keegan to be the football manager?Comment

Indeed I am!!!
Its fair to say that in my various professional roles I have made the decision to not allow myself voting rights when it comes to Vendor Selection!!
I should also say that I have never allowed myself to vote...I am a self-confessed baboon and let my heart rule my head on nearly every occassion...

Originally posted by CybermanIf only he could do for pensions what he did for the economy
Just imagine you had a romanian cook, polish housekeeper, scottish nanny and three porsches for them to drive. A £1 million house with a 125% mortgage. Then you receive a redundancy notice because the FTV you hired can do your job at half price. Thats what condition the UK economy is in.
Basically once Gordon takes over (bails out) as PM his replacement will be phoning those nice people at Picture for a loan faster than you can say Prudence.Comment

Originally posted by wendigo100Brown's economic miracle is exactly like you extending your mortgage every year to pay your everyday living costs. The longer you do it for, the bigger the fall when the bill arrives.
Brown is as much of an incompetent, spinning koont as the last man.
Where Blair was full of hot air Brown delivers by results a far better chioce for Prime Minister - the only pity is that he wasnt given the leadership a long time before now.Last edited by AlfredJPruffock; 13 May 2007, 13:39.Comment

And Brown is not a spinner with his cons like 2% reduction in income tax, which is probably the most honest thing he has done with finances so far? It is not Blair who is responsible for all this debt on which the economy was put on it: the only serious mistake Blair made was Iraq, and even that due to foreign contract with USA, I am pretty sure any other PM would have done the same, perhaps in a less butt kissing way though.Comment

For example, how did you find out about IR35 in 1999? Not from Gordon, I'll bet! More likely Andy White or similar, who stumbled over it hidden in a bill about something else.
And when you praise Brown's results - is his "economic miracle" not the biggest deception of all?Comment

I was just going to respond when I realised that its nearly closing time in this cybercafe - anyway I just wanted to say that I have always liked you even though sometimes we disagree on certain points.
Peace be with us all.Comment
