Do the Tories believe in a hidden roundhead? Sorta holding out for the resurection of Olly Cromwell

Don't you bet on it. The unwashed masses are a wee bit dim.

Fair point.

Do you think a GB government will ban washing on the grounds that: -

a) cleanliness encourages toryism

b) it's environmentally friendly to smell

c) it's better for security as the police can smell the poor and disgruntled

d) sales of cologne will increase, thus boosting the economy

Have your say!

[Fungus]

On the upside he wont be leader for long!

Is that possible, BM, old chap?

No of course not! Who could be richer than T (piss be upon him).

I don't have a heated swimming pool for my stable of polo ponies, whereas Threaded has several, customised, all-year-round-heated lakes!

Make you sick, doesn't it?

[bogeyman]

This only works IF you are a REALLY rich, not just a mere contractor!

Mailman

I'm really rich. Richer than Threaded, even.

Mailman

Shurely not...

Actually this only works if you are really rich AND donate "cash for favours" to "new" liebour.

[Mailman]

Just think, this time next year he'll be the glorious leader.

Can't wait long enough

Well, we could all take out massive loans on our companies, declare a record profit, pay ourselves a huge divi to some offshore account.

aka as doing a Philip Green

Brown is one of the cleverest and most devious customers on the surface of this planet. He'll side step it.

Ah, so it was only fair?

He'll deny everything and if that doesn't work he'll come out with some clever spin that will convince the plebs that really it's all for their own good

Labour has always argued the move removed a distortion in the tax system which encouraged companies to pay out their profits in dividends, rather than reinvest them.

There you go then. It was all in the interests of fairness and stopping disgusting middle class shareholders from profiteering in their investment in companies thus depriving schools and hospitals of much needed revenue. The bastards.

It'll be nice if he gets nailed for it, but that's not too likely to happen.
