You played me :(
:) Come on though.. the winner has won by definition. He has the spoils, it is repugnant to rub it in the face of the guy who lost.
Did you say that to all your Utd mates after the 93.20 moment?

This morning whilst I was arguing on the election thread the kids came upstairs and said a rat was dying in the drain. Turns out it was a hedgehog.
Anyway the poor little fucker was at the side of the house and doing doggy paddle while Mrs ww bath water poured over his spikey head.
He wa struggling like fuck to get out but couldn't. Managed to get a big spoon and scoop him out. Put him onthe drive and watched him for a bit. He was shaking incredibly so I googled hedgehog and found a hospital in withington that just deals in hedgehogs.
Turns out he was getting hyperthermia and would have died within a couple of hours. We managed to get him in the car using a quality street tin.
The hospital which was a 70 odd year old woman with 30 wheels bins in her garden gave him drugs and dried him with a hair dryer. Got talking to her and she has been saving hedgehogs for 49 years and is getting an OBE next week.
The kids think I will get a pride of Britain award. I have been smiling all day - never done anything like that before. Maybe I should have been a vet.
The moral of the story - if a hedgehog is drowning in your garden - take it to withington.
If I can save just one more hedghig life this post will have been worth it.

That's true - to be honest it really has effected me. I wish I had voted labour now.

No government can consider itself legitimate under the current system.
They can its the law of the land so it is 100 percent legitimate, and I voted lib dems
Its lawfulness is fair comment, but there's no way it could be described as democratic and as such that brings into question its legitimacy.hilts said:stony said:foxy said:bitter Labour supporters showing their class by trying to destabilize a legitimate government.

The system is a farce no doubt I have yet to hear a decent alternative yet apart from mine which would probably collapse under scrutiny

The current farce doesn't.
That paradigm isn't just restricted to politics, mate.hilts said:gordondaviesmoustache said:Why would it collapse under scrutiny?hilts said:The system is a farce no doubt I have yet to hear a decent alternative yet apart from mine which would probably collapse under scrutiny

The problem with politics is that those who can change it benefit most from it staying the same
