    If all the parties are tulip, you or someone else you know have had contact with your MP and they are OK then at least you can vote for someone.
    The only sensible approach.

    So you would have really voted for Labour so Corbyn was PM?

    Understanding the Skirt Length Theory


    The idea behind skirt length theory is that shorter skirts tend to appear in times when general consumer confidence and excitement are high, meaning the markets are bullish. In contrast, the theory says long skirts are worn more in times of fear and general gloom, indicating that things are bearish.
    So hot waitresses with short skirts and you can't lose!
