Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

I'm reminded of the animated version of "The Hobbit," the one that looks like it was done in the seventies, where all the short characters are all roundish little things.

I keep hearing that women say, "Precious, PRECious, PRECIOUS..."

Do you snort crack off your keybord or something?

Right-wing rags have a go at Blair far more than left-wing ones. Just look at the Sun, The Daily Mail, etc.

Riiiiiiiiiiiight. So the Tories are a bunch of lefties?

I love your logic. Your side starts losing so you pretend they were on the other side all along

I think it's pretty well established the Conservative Party are right wing, most are right-authoritarian but there are right-liberals. Doesn't change the fact they're right-wing though.

And those papers announce themselves as right-wing, constantly criticizing 'left-liberals'.

Well this is the issue Stew, they need to shake off a lot of this conservatism towards gay unions and drugs. There needs to be a more sensible working model for drugs...cannabis and tobacco should be at the same level of regulation...legal but banned in public.

I agree with cannabis and tobacco.

Gay unions are unnecessary. You know what marriage is for.

Boddingtons the only people who are 'anti-homosexual' compared to you marched accross Poland some 60 years ago.

I think we should ban you from getting married. (What am I saying? This will be default anyway )

I think rehabilitation with youth offenders is more important than harsher punishments. And I do think taxes should be raised to imporve public services. The NHS used to be a decent service ya know.

Scrap the NHS and have a private system.

If you look at the average amount the NHS spends on someone and compare that to equivalent spent in the US, the American gets far better treatment.

Maybe so, but I'm sure you'll find cases of European countries with much better health care systems than both the UK and US. Why not go that way?
