Go Labour!!!

[Pussy]

Labour have enough blind faithful, couple that with the Maori party and assorted ambitious odds and sods and "Bingo" Helen's back for an historic fourth term.

If you run away in disgust Helen will fill your space with friendly Chinese immigrants.

Helen has a plan and it doesn't necessarily include you and me! John.

Sadly, there is a HUGE element of truth in that, John. I suppose we can join Aussie biker when we get there

Talking about closed doors......... and open doors, I rather liked General Pinochets open door policy. Invited guests were the most unreformable marxists and it included a plane ride over the ocean....

No use going to Aussie, they have got a mob of flakes just like her lot over there too now!

But you are right we are still "free" to choose whether to stay or go, well for meantime anyway!

Sorry no need to feed the cat, I will be taking the Tiger with me if I go! Cheers John.

Yep, At a time where many tax paying workers are struggling to meet the cost of living, The government goes and forks out a huge amount of money on buying back an excessively overpriced asset. What about some relief at this time for taxpayers that are struggling to make ends meet???
Isn't it also very interesting, that the high cost required to buy back the railways is somewhat more than the money involved to provide the long time talked about tax cuts for the taxpayers (Promised across 2 election campaigns and no sign yet). No considerations given to workers here.

After all, the railway is an investment for reducing our Carbon footprint. More people need to use public transport - So the government says, after buying their 50 BMW's!

for the record heres some info about wff. I am married with four kids and we manage to live ok on one income. wff pays us extra each fortnight without which life would be a real struggle. So for some people it actually does help out. Most of our friends are two income faimilies who it makes no difference for at all. The big problem is that it locks you in to dependency on it. For us to be better off than we are my pay would need to go way up or my wife would need a high paying job.........so it does not allow free enterprise or a get ahead mentality.

for the record.........lets get labour out of gubbermint pronto. and get rid of petrol tax. and gubbermint spending on crap

[Grahameeboy]

Indeed the grass is still ( in many ways ) greener but we still need to comprehensively get rid of Frankensteins sister and Cheshire Cat Cullen. As you may well realise the council elections in the UK have just comprehensively dumped in excess of 100 labour controlled councils and the Conservatives picked up most of those. The poor old poms are undergoing the same sickness of mindless pseudo communist ''Government'' as we are. Given that Kevin Ruddiculous ( aka ''the milky bar kid' ) is in control across the ditch there isnt a lot of hope for the ockers either.

I hear the North Pole is quiet...plenty of space to dump your stuff...

Nah - there's no land under there for when it melts....south pole has land and such

Yes thats the sad reality, its perverse that thousands more civil servants have been created ( by definition many are paid beneficiaries ) to administer a great merry go round of paper and waste to hand back some of the money raped off ( predominantly ) middle income earners.
I believe we can have a fair society for all without creating a great big semi marxist juggernaut. Id go as far to say that many middle class people with a conservative outlook ( may I include myself in that grouping ) actually have more compassion for the plight of the working man than most of the voiciferous marxists out there.

Thats why I ride bikes , to clear my head of all this BOLLOCKS !!!

now lets see if i can get this thing right:

although certain sanctimonious fascist conservatives can post personal attacks if they're weasels who don't have the cojones to offer the name of their target are deemed innocent by the minor demigods here (even though it's obvious who they're talking about)............. honest blokes who aint weasels identify the fascist abuse and name the perp; and they get pinged by the management.

so according to the reason given for the penalty by said unnamed minidogs, the bad bling was 'cause the reply was direct and not actually because the post contained a personal attack.

that given (thanks mod, you know who you are); this particular post, a post that doesn't name names, should be left up while any ad hom in reply will be sent to bad blingsville.

of course this IS a fascist state (KB), so free speech and fair play are less relevant than the minorsemidogs pre determined political toadying

I sense something is bugging you....

Sand in the vagina, would be my guess.

And the mistaken (although he's certainly not alone in that) belief that KB is a democracy.
