heir apparent to the Osborne baronetcy of Ballintaylor as son of the 17th Baron.
i love someone who's richer than Manchester United telling us "we're all in it together" - i'm sure he'd know what the average joe's life is like :y
we're all in it together to deprive the poorest in society of any meagre handouts, whilst rewarding the very richest by cutting inheritance tax (he'd know all about inheritance to be fair ;D)
sorry - i'm positive he has the best and most honourable of intentions and he'll treat everyone fairly 8-)

Agreed......Eton educated "Tory boy"buffoon.....nasty minded public school idiot.......no understanding whatsoever of the real world......still has a nanny to dress him in the morning. :( :(
Apparently though.....he has a good voice....and took part in recording "The Eton boating song".....as you do. ;D ;D

So, in the Optimist/Bannjaax world, if you happen to have been born into a monied and titled family, you would be banned from serving in government or having an opinion as to the way the economic situation should be handled.
Just pathetic class hatred. Graphically illustrated by the unnecessary use of his rare middle name, as if that makes him a worse person.
I don't happen to agree with all his ideas on the economy, but this sort of attack on his background is just odious. >:( >:( >:(
-
Did we have anyone slagging off Peter BENJAMIN Mandelson? :) :)
I didn't see much in what the Tories were offering that will actually hit the wealthy but plenty to hit the poor. Just one example. Retirement at 66. Poor person has to keep working but rich person has his portfolio of personal pension plans to exercise at whatever age (after 50). Perhaps they should be changed to 66 too?!

what a wonderful world that would ;D
anyway i can't tug my forelock to thems thats better due to severely receding hairline :y
it shouldn't bar you, but i really can't see how it gives you a fair and balanced opinion of how the real world works, not all public schools, mind just the really exclusive ones :-?
-
So the idea of an intelligent, well educated person acting responsibly is now seen as an odious crime ???
Perhaps the "Ay lad, canst thou hear me at back, wilst thou fetch us a pint" type is more suiting to some ??
Explains a lot as to why/how the country is in such a mess I suppose ... politics of envy ... so lets vote in the thickest idiots instead.... :(

Thank you for your kind supportive words Nickbat. ::)
We need intelligent.....articulate......and erudite individuals to form the next government...
such people can be found in our state schools and universities.....normal people. ;) ;)
The very idea .....that in 2009 we need to get 75%(if we get as seems likely a Conservative government) of our front bench politicians from some insular ......outdated ........institution such as Eton(where it is still 1957).....is quite frankly laughable.
We live in a diverse ....ever changing society......Our government needs to reflect this. :y :y

interesting theory....i haven't had a chance to look at a paper today tho :-/
i'm sure DC will say all the right things - but theres appears to be some priority with getting cheap and easy votes by targetting society's poorest (and typically non-voters), while gently warning their mates in the city to behave - or we'll nudge up a tax on them (which any half decent corporate accountant would avoid anyway) but i'll wait on old worm-face and see how much his snake oil costs :y

his rare middle name "Gideon" was actually his first name which he dropped before seeking election as he felt (rightly) that a "George" would garner more votes than a "Gideon"
its not the name, its the fact that these old etonians are desperately falling over themselves to mask their privileged past to get into power. the glorious exception is Boris Johnson who doesn't try to hide his roots, is witty, intelligent, honest and very engaging! :y

i'm sure DC will say all the right things - but theres appears to be some priority with getting cheap and easy votes by targetting society's poorest (and typically non-voters), while gently warning their mates in the city to behave - or we'll nudge up a tax on them (which any half decent corporate accountant would avoid anyway) but i'll wait on old worm-face and see how much his snake oil costs :y
....where is the theory bj, surely someone who wishes to be 'fair and balanced' - your words from an earlier post - would want to be fully acquainted with relevant facts before coming to well considered conclusions rather than those seemingly based on naked class prejudice :-/ :-/
too right! whats wrong with a little class prejudice? i'd rather vote for the clued up than the clueless - as this seems unlikely, i'll base my decision on prejudice - i know how much the tories will look after their own, they always have and they always will :o

it doesn,t help a mps cause when seen to be quoffing a drink that costs equivalent to what some folks may be expected to live on for two weeks +
:o :o :o :o :o :o :o what drink is that then? :-/ :-/ :-/
"...a drink that costs equivalent to what some folks may be expected to live on for two weeks."
Champagne: £14.25 a bottle at Tesco.
::) ::) ::) ::) ::)
Well I'm a Conservative and I live on that (from Sainsbury's!!) having four bottles a day :P :P :P :P
What else does one do then? Doesn't everyone live on Champagne my dear fellows? :D :D :D :D :D :D ;) ;)
Were you Marie Antoinette.....in a previous life .....by any chance Lizzie...........Let them eat cake. :D :D ;D ;D
Oh yes indeed, although actually I never said that in my previous life; it was all a propanda 'lie', which was probably put out and about by the British!! ::) ::) ::) :D :D :D ;) ;)
i'm fuelled by champagne (that cheap cava gives me indigestion) :y

So, in the Optimist/Bannjaax world, if you happen to have been born into a monied and titled family, you would be banned from serving in government or having an opinion as to the way the economic situation should be handled.
Just pathetic class hatred. Graphically illustrated by the unnecessary use of his rare middle name, as if that makes him a worse person.
I don't happen to agree with all his ideas on the economy, but this sort of attack on his background is just odious. >:( >:( >:(
His politics may be suspect and he might, indeed, be a pillock --- but being born to money isn't his fault, not is being from a titled family. Incidentally the two do not always go together !!!!
Bottom line is that politicians of all colours will be lying through their teeth, trying to say what they hope we want to hear and delivering b. all if elected >:( :(

referring to entwoods theory that i was taking my opinion from the papers without listening to what Gideon George was saying :y
...I thought Entwood's comments referred to what you said concerning DC and whatever comments he would be making on Friday :-/ :-/

So the idea of an intelligent, well educated person acting responsibly is now seen as an odious crime ???
Perhaps the "Ay lad, canst thou hear me at back, wilst thou fetch us a pint" type is more suiting to some ??
Explains a lot as to why/how the country is in such a mess I suppose ... politics of envy ... so lets vote in the thickest idiots instead.... :(
theres this horrendous myth perpetuated that because you're rich and have had the benefit of public education that you're somehow more intelligent - disproved by Princess Di of course - best schools money could by and thick as two short planks she was :y
...by whom bj, seems to me that this is the position taken by those who would envy such people and their circumstances ;) ;)
put politics aside Zulu - you're a decent, intelligent, compassionate person in my view...now - doesn't it grate just a little that these landed gentry who've never had to work a day in their lives if they didn't want to have the temerity to take money off someone who gets a few quid a week on benefits (so what if some are cheating - the amount they steal wouldn't make a dent in what we gave to the banks)? pay freezes for civil servants?
that doesn't grate - just a little? you think any of these old etonians have worried about a bill dropping through the letter box?

sorry he went to St Pauls - he's an old St Paulian :y - (one the the original 9 public schools, along with charterhouse, harrow, eton winchester college, etc) 400 years of serving the nation i'm sure ;D
i'm sure if it was a comprehensive, and his dad was a plumber he'd of still been accepted ;)
jeezuz - something else just struck me - you mean he's one of the guys that the tories state didn't go to eton? is that what they mean then? he didn't go to eton.....thats true - good point ;D

-Oh Gawd, all these big words and high falutin' ideals flying around has given me a headache ::) ;)

put politics aside Zulu - you're a decent, intelligent, compassionate person in my view...now - doesn't it grate just a little that these landed gentry who've never had to work a day in their lives if they didn't want to have the temerity to take money off someone who gets a few quid a week on benefits (so what if some are cheating - the amount they steal wouldn't make a dent in what we gave to the banks)? pay freezes for civil servants?
that doesn't grate - just a little? you think any of these old etonians have worried about a bill dropping through the letter box?

doesn't it grate just a little that these landed gentry who've never had to work a day in their lives if they didn't want to have the temerity to take money off someone who gets a few quid a week on benefits
...it doesn't grate on me at all bj and I don't think the need to address the confused and unbalanced welfare system can be described as an elitist Etonian plot to deny those in need the assistance they require.
so what if some are cheating - the amount they steal wouldn't make a dent in what we gave to the banks
...so theft and sharp practice are fine as long as they both are done by a certain demographic? – that’s quite a double standard there:-/ :-/
you think any of these old etonians have worried about a bill dropping through the letter box?
...if you're referring to the Tory front bench they probably don't have to - they're on a parliamentary salary (and expenses ) after all ;) ;)

All this fuss and fighting, I don't really do politics and certainly not a local level, in that vote on policies and evidence.
I am simply waiting for GB to be replaced then we can all watch as Labour get reelected, after all there is no one else up to the Job. And I speak as a past conservative voter.
I have noticed that even the tory's are going to hit the working man for the worlds financial difficulties caused by the bankers, none of whom are going to be worrying about how to pay for Christmas. GB did not cause the recession.
And no, I am not one of those left wing lentil munchers of the PC brigade, we hear described on here, which incidentally, went down brilliantly in the office... :y :y

i'm not saying its fine and nothing should be done - i'm saying there are far bigger frauds in the city than some guy scamming a few extra thousand - but it is an easy target something DC has never shied away from.....
incidentally i watched the entertaining "when dave met boris" last night on more4, as well as dramatising certain events at Eton and Oxford it interviewed friends, family and classmates for insight - very enlightening - worth catching it if you can......i had no idea boris and dave were such rivals - might be interesting :y

Whoever forms the next administration - and I'm sceptical about DC's ability to be a true force for realistic change - the political reality will demand some extraordinary measures to address the current malaise, and by extension, cause discomfort to us all.
Should that strength and desire be absent in the new administration then this country is finished.
Boris enjoys being considered a buffoon – he is far from it - only those who base their judgement upon these superficial facets will fail to see the true depth and clarity contained within this apparently flawed diamond.

i think i said earlier that i respect boris for not being afraid to be posh - he is fiercely intelligent to such an extent that apparently he rarely prepares anything as he knows he'll muddle through and it seems to work for him, this may give opponents cause for alarm and point out his failings, but his charm and humour rarely fail to win over an audience :y
BJ for PM? ;D ;D

Sorry Vamps but this simply isnt true.many tens of thousands of people in the banking industry were the first to lose their jobs when the meltdown started.Therse werent multi millionare masters of the universe (they do ok whatever happens) but people on 5 figure salaries who had nothing to do with the policies and decisions which helped crate the problem.
The architect of banking regulations which were a very large contributory factor in the problems was a certain G Brown.He was so desperate to be the 1st Liebore chancellor to ingratiate himself with the City that he tore up the rule book when he became Chancellor, and even when he was advised that this waas storing up trouble for the future he wouldnt listen.He told us all that he had dispensed with boom and bust,he had created the land of milk and honey and no-one need worrry about anything ever again.
I would like to see him strung up on a lampost on Threadneedle street for what he did to the economy of this country. >:(
