    Tax raises would have happened anyway - only under Liebor there would be a lot less cuts in waste because that would hit their core vote.

    Surely though New Labour were really just Conservatives hiding behind a facade? The Tories bought in the free enterprise market where everyone could be their own boss and have a load of wonga, just witness the golden years of contracting and barrow boys in the City. Old Labour knew that they could not win against this Gomorraha of a vision but waiting in the wings were those who knew that by playing the 'wolf in sheeps clothing' ploy that they could win by plying their wares to mans basest instinct: Greed. The trouble is, and this is because the Tories have always been a monied persons party yet Labour never were, they could not handle the finances. Labour screwed up but don't think that the new kids on the block are going to be any better because not only aren't they real Tories, more like New Labour Tories, but they have with them as bedfellows, a party that has never had its own policies and just rides on the tailcoats of others. The country is going to get worse before it ever, if ever, gets better.

    Dead fish are interesting, especially when you pick one up and find it's full of maggots writhing inside.

    Nah. You see that is quite interesting

    What type of fish it is? Is it young? Is it old? What did it die of? Was it polluted? Did it die of old age? Did it get hit by a boat.

    Interesting stuff.

    I think you meant, About as interesting as a damp lettuce leaf.

    Need more info on the fish. Battered? Pan fried? Oven baked? What garnish?

    This IS interesting

    Mich, I was referencing the "Polls on this forum" comment.

    Maybe you just can't read well enough to understand?


    Anyway, bored now. Will check in on this fascinating debate tonight maybe, if SY01 hasn't posted a more interesting thread about his feelings...
    You see, I am interesting!

    Not that this is a label of course. I would not want to be labelled as interesting, just described as such. Labelling bad. Describing good.
