Always had a soft spot for Tony Banks, he was that rare beast amongst politicians, the one that would speak his mind regardless of party line.

Bothwell

<t>Addicted as I am to all politics and US in particular imagine my joy at discovering the hearings are being given wide coverage on Fox (Unfair, Unbalanced and in Hannity's case Unhinged) over here. I would give my left arm to see our high court judges facing the same type of scrutiny. I know that ...

Bothwell

Bothwell

I am trying to get everyone I know to watch "Curb Your Enthusiasm". Lots of people I talk to just dont seem to get it. i love the show, he reminds me so much of my father, am I alone in liking this show?

Bothwell

Bothwell

<t>OK I've had enough, having stated on this forum many times that I am basicaly against the DP I have had a change of heart. My personal rubicon has been fuelled by two recnet events, the shooting of the woman police officer. It was a pure cold blooded execution no more no less, regardle...
