Then they might reduce the Conservative majority by 3 or 4 between now and the next General Election. But since that majority is currently 153 I don't see it being particularly relevant. THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE...or maybe a coalition to be fair. 😜 Like the last one, and we get even less done than the civil service allows now.

Certainly not grumbling. I learnt a long time ago that it's not worth the effort. I'm too old to worry about the future, which is how I think my parents thought about the future when I was a lad.

Drugs as well. Don't leave the drugs part out.
Funny how it's always a sex thing with the Tories.

He'll struggle, the news is supposed to be true. Like when it reported Tony Blair saying that Iraq had Weapons of Mass Destruction? Oh, wait!

At the time if you went onto google and typed 'weapons of mass destruction' and then clicked 'I'm feeling lucky' it went to a page which said 'Error 404: weapons not found'. Which was hilarious.

I think at the time everybody knew it was complete and total bollocks including, I suspect, Jim. Blair was and is a war criminal and the fact that he was not Jim's MP when he voted Labour is pretty poor amelioration for supporting the political party of which he was the leader.

Too many teeth.
I remember the day John Smith died. I was cruising along the canal near Coventry of all places. It would have been something like May 1994. Haven't checked but I used to have the radio on with earphones.
I was going along and there were some blokes digging out a marina with diggers. I hollered out to one of them "JOHN SMITH HAS DIED" and bearing in mind I was only 20 yars old a bit skinny with long hair and scruffy appearance and was narrow boating during a working day they looked askance at me.
I expect later they got it.
I think at the time they thought I was some mad fucker.

On the Calais-Dover ferry on the way home I bought a newspaper, the first English language publication I had read for about a month. I read "There cannot be a single person in the entire country who has not heard about the tragic death of Princess Diana". I thought "What??? Has she died?"
