Must dig out the mp3 player which holds my Goon collection - certainly
be more entertaining than this thread.

There is always something distasteful about off-topic threads that
exist merely to criticize individuals. They have no place in uk.r, et
al. Several months back Whitehead started one in order to belittle
Alan Tracy. Doing so said much more about Whitehead than Mr. Tracy.

MIG is showing immaturity in starting this thread. But, he is young
yet. MIG is a Timmy Ton writ small. What, you may ask, is the
problem with Timmy Ton? At personal level he questions my heritage.
In my particular case said heritage is passed on thru the female
line. To question it is to be offensive towards my mother. No man
should stand by and allow his mother to be insulted. I responded in
kind. Timmy did not stand up for his mother.

Timmy also has no problem with military rockets being fired into
primary schools and folk's homes. At least he takes a dim view of the
appropriate response. That is the height of callousness. Children
should always be protected. And few material possessions are more
precious than one's home. They represent years of hard work.

Apart from that he stands for all that is low, vulgar, indecent, and
offensive. A good two thirds of this list could be applied to
Timmy;

You will understand why I dislike the creature.

Oh, and like you, I miss the Goons. Must stop by the BBC shop
sometime.

I don't think these nutcases even have much political importance. Sure,
they make a lot of noise on the comments pages of the Telegraph, Mail,
BBC (Speak You're Branes) and so on, but if they vote at all it will
almost certainly be for the lunatic fringe: UKIP, BNP etc.

My own infallible test for wackjobs is the use of "so-called": as soon
as you see references to "so-called experts" or the "so-call Human
Rights Act" you know that the author has significant problems with reality.

Another infallible test, in my experience, is to see whether they
believe in the literal truth of words written by bronze-age desert
tribesmen over the findings of modern science aka religious
fundamentalism. I've yet to meet anyone falling into that category
who has anything to say that's worth listening to. Mr "Auer"-Hudson
is the living embodiment of that principle.

Looks pretty blue to me in england. (sic)

That's because the Tories tend to do well in the affluent countryside
constituencies that cover the largest geographical areas. Even in the
event of a Labour landslide, those maps would still look pretty blue.


The countryside: That would be farms. Farmers are the folks who work
long hours to put food on your table. They are common sense people.
They vote Conservative because they have worked very hard for what
they have. Do you have a problem with that?

The Countryside is also home to countless small businesses. These
people work hard and do not rely on government hand outs. They do pay
ample taxes and collect VAT.

The countryside of the home counties is home to myriad commuters who
buy expensive tickets in order to commute to London and do real work.
Without their effort and taxes London's welfare insanity would not
exist.

Nock the countryside if you wish. You are biting the hand that feeds
you.

He's not knocking the countryside. He's just pointing out that rural
areas have lower population densities, and are therefore larger
(sometimes considerably larger) than urban constituencies. Therefore,
the map can look blue, even though a majority of people can still be
voting red (albeit not at the last election).

Because supermarkets won't pay them the real value of what they produce.
The farmers should call their bluff - then watch Tesco et al panic as they
try and source basic commodities for the entire country from abroad.

OK.

Incidentally, I like the insinuation that commercial solicitors (as
opposed, say, to human rights lawyers) are likely to be lefties. Met
many?
