William Hague

[fullyautomatix]

I remember that daily mail editor on QuestionTime asking if we wanted posh blokes from Eton and Oxbridge ruling us.

Well yes I do ! If they are good enough to get through Oxbridge then they are good to run the country in my book.

Compared to tribal Gordon, even a monkey will do better.

Comes from Wath and couldn't point the right direction to Doncaster.

Some background here.

On the radio the other morning William Hague was quick to point out that he went to a state comprehensive school, not a private one. (He did go to Oxford though).

It is probably why he was never going to be Prime Minister.

Gawd I'm fed up with the Tory public school toffs line.

The Liberal chappie is also a public school toff.

So is Tony Blair (as are a good few others no doubt).

John Major wasn't.

Wasn't it Churchill who said "Don't f**k with the Balkans"?

...and added "But do what the f*** you like with the Baltics."

Watched the news earlier which included a report on Hagues visit to Washington and, to me, he seemed out of his depth.

I hope he grows in the role and quickly as I have a high regard for him.

Irony is lost on this lot.

You need more emoticons and a few more lols. We are headed for the CUK Sunshine Retirement Village.

His Commons speeches on YouTube are worth watching. I'm glad we have intelligent articulate people in control now. Being run by amateurs, retards and misfits is fine to mix things up a bit, but 13 years was far too long.

Got any particular links or search terms for gems?

I always liked WH. He'll make a fine Statesman!

I doubt you'd make a fine dog even if you were one.

Here's a classic, even Labour were laughing. Links to similar from there.
