David Cameron's Europe Speech

[Beef Oven]

I thought it was hilarious, like something out of a parliamentary Fawlty Towers ...

Surely we can all indulge ranting, frothing-at-the mouth political clowns just for a bit?

After all he's only the Right's answer to Denis Skinner, and it hardly comes as any great surprise that both these political clowns are united on the issue of Europe, as well as just ranting and frothing-at-the-mouth.

Let's make occasional room for these relatively harmless political clowns ... nothing wrong with a bit of raucous parliamentary entertainment now and again?

Glad you liked it! Call him what you like, he's totally in command of the political argument!!!

The problem with Nige is that he is just a rude pub bore who seems to get off on offending everyone he meets who doesn't agree with his paranoia
which is fine in the pub
but we are in a collaboration NOT a Viz cartoon

Hardly matey
I was just thinking of going abroad to another country
say Anglesey or Arran ?
which are obviously not part of Britain or Europe

I find it extraordinary that YOU who seem to be intelligent in matters of music seem to take this dipstick seriously
it really is baffling ............

And therefore the UK has maybe much more in common with New Zealand as the Daily Express has always insisted?

Lord Beaverbrook I salute you posthumously, Sir!

New Zeeland and New Holland (otherwise known colloquially in NZ as "West Island") have something in common with UK and not with the Netherlands? Well, well!...

Some might argue that the sooner Mr Farage's name is well and truly dropped the better...

You are by no means alone; some of the beefier ones might indeed persuade certain readers to consider putting their heads in the oven...

That's what tends to happen once BO gets involved

Indeed
I think it demonstrates something fundamentally wrong with much of the rhetoric one gets
the idea that somehow there is something to "win" or even always a "competition"
most of the wonderful things in the world are the result of collaborations
