The country is behind him, we didn’t require a recount in the last election.
I’m not so sure, most people I know who voted for labour voted for ‘labour’ rather than voting for ‘blair’ per-say, It’s funny how familearity breeds contempt. Even considering his fuck ups he’s a relativly competant leader....I just wish he’s stop kissing bushs’ ass.
Words are difficult for me. But if I see you put your Tipi up then that should be enough. Don’t demonstrate too fast though, I know your experienced with this kind of construction, but please go at a pace thar enables me to follow.
What gives you the impression CM is a hard left liberal-stoner?
He’s politically aware, he voted against Blair only on his stance over Iraq, I am traditionally a Labour voter, but I voted Liberal for the same reason. So you are ‘assuming’ we are both hard left, pot smoking, drop-out schleps, which is awfully judgemental.
You’ve said before that you are a moderate socialist, yet your opinions would have you appear as a fervent right winger.
So please, clarify your position, what exactly is it that you like about Blair?
I have to agree with my English counterparts here, I voted for the lib-dems as a protest vote and I’m a borderline tea-totaller and you betray incredable ignorance by labbeling the lib-dems ‘hippies’. You havnt really done or said anything which points to you being even vauely socialist, if anything you sound like the sun crossed with a republican.

He was the best of a bad bunch, I’d rather pickle my own eyeballs (in situ) than vote for Howerd, I like Kennedy, but he wasn’t PM material (I voted tactically, and as a conscience easing excercise), so Blair was the only option.
And with Blair you get Brown, who’s doing a decent job.
It was a wind up. I could not care less who he votes for.
Must be fun for those foreigners at the kebab shop when, after a few pints, you “wind them up” as well, telling them to fuck off home. I see that happening often. “Just having a laugh” etc.
Doesn’t take a rocket surgeon to see where and why the resentment starts creeping in.
I thought about that when it was found that one of the Leeds guys used to work in his dads chip shop. I can just imagine the years of drunken abuse, sorry “wind ups”, these places get - how a not-very-bright young Muslim sees their hard-working old man getting made fun of........actually it might not even have to happen that often for all sorts of crazy ideas to filter through their brains. I know I wouldn’t want to have to put up with it.
Did you ever see the Goodness Gracious Me sketch where a bunch of Asian guys went for an ‘English’. It turned the whole beermonster Indian Meal on a Friday night scenario on it’s head. It was funny, yet offensive, sadly that’s part of the British psyche I don’t like, the whole cultural arrogance.

Has that got that guy in it from the Kumars ? If so, I have, and it was genius.
Rowan Atkinson did a version (the normal) way as well, many years back. I thought that was very brave, but important.

Yeah, it’s Sanjeev Baskar, he’s a very aware person, that sketch really did make me feel ashamed though.
“And we’ll have 20 portions of chips’’
‘’20 portions could be too many, sir’’
‘’Just get the damn chips, whitey’’.
Another of my favourite sketches is the “Let’s go for an English” sketch - the traditional Bombay Friday night out - getting tanked up on lassis and going out for an English ...
Girl1: “I say young man, you’re my ‘mite’ aren’t you, Jamid.”
Girl 1 to Girl2: “Jamid’s my ‘mite’”.
Waiter: “Actually it’s James.
Girl1: “Jams, yes that’s what I said!”
Girl1 to Girl2: Hasn’t he got lovely pale skinia, it’s really nice and pasty looking.”
Girl 2 to Girl1: Yeah, you know what that say about white men...”
Man1: “All right, all right, what are we having now?”
Man1: “First off we’ll have 10...., no 12 bread rolls, and bring a pack of that fancy stuff....”
Man2: “Butter?”
Man1: “OK, main course what’s everyone having?”
Man2: “What’s the blandest thing on the menu?”
Waiter: “Scampi is particularly bland.”
Man2: “I’ll have that and bring a fork and knife.”
Man1: “I’m gonna have the same as him, except I’m also gonna have.... prawn cocktail.”
To be fair I really don’t see why he’s bitching, it’s been how many years since an notable islamic fundie attack? If we go further than that and exclude international attacks then it gets worse (aka better) How long before another one?
I remember in the old days when the IRA were blowing everything to funk, that was awful...this is encredably tame in comparison.
I’m not going to let anyone scare me not blair, not terrorists, not sensationalist journalism
sorry for that passionate outburst: I just stubbed my toe so I’m pissed.
