I asked Snowdrop if, with all the military cuts, he would get redundancy, seems they won't be doing that as it would cost a fortune - they will lose the required quota through natural wastage.
Us too; although some of us like a bit of banter.....
Because we get accused of all sorts, all by PM which is a right royal pain in the ****.
You just never know which way it will go - sometimes it can be a really good debate - usually is as long as it stays away from insulting other Grapes for their viewpoints.
It doesn't really matter who is in power - some people will be happy, some will be angry. At the end of the day - it's all our fault for voting that way en masse so if a little rant on t'interweb helps then so be it.
Votes were given to women on an equal footing with men on 15th October 1928, under the Conservative government of Stanley Baldwin.

Big deal. They were first given the vote if they were 30 or over by a Liberal government. You can't gainsay any of the other Labour and Liberal benefits I listed. What have the Tories ever done for the great mass of ordinary people? (And don't give me some half-a***d c**p about "fiscal responsibility creating jobs": we had sky-high unemployment during Thatcher and Major's time, and it immediately started to come down under Labour, and stayed down, and they kept inflation under control as well, the Tories having spent 18 years telling us that we could have low inflation and low unemployment at the same time. Yes, it's a pity it all went wrong in the last year or two, but remember the previous decade (well, apart from the two wars, that is - they are why I lost faith in Labour, and am now a member of the Green party, though I'd still vote Labour if no Green was standing in an election, as I did back in May)).

Reason: swearing
i would have voted green,too, if i thought they had a chance in hall of stopping what has happened, from happening. as it was, i voted labour to try to avoid what is happening now.
