    Our Shiney is a man of many opinions, all of them well tested by experience, intelligence and time..........and he's also a courteous man. He's also a fan of John Wayne [I think]

    "Never apologize, mister, it’s a sign of weakness.”
    ― John Wayne

    “I've always followed my father's advice: he told me, first to always keep my word and, second, to never insult anybody unintentionally. If I insult you, you can be goddamn sure I intend to. And, third, he told me not to go around looking for trouble. ”
    ― John Wayne

      I had my first vote canvas today at home, had to inform him he was to late, I have a postal vote and it went off last week, he then enquired if I would tell him who I voted for, had to tell him "sorry not your party", just for information my Labour candidate is Neil Kinnocks son.

            I reckon it could swing it ..... Another 9.5 million Conservative votes.
            Anyone who follows what that idiot has to say should be banned fro voting.

              I can't actually see any ONE party getting a majority vote, this election is going to be the most interesting one I have followed.

                That's very kind :redface: - but I would have preferred the bit about time to have been left out. :old: :loll:

                  Seems a bit odd to me, this bloke was saying, dont vote a while ago, now after a chat with Milliband he says vote labour.



                  Either he has taken a backhander, or it was a set up in the first place.

                  Or possibly both.

                    I'm not sure that you can describe a foregone conclusion [i.e: a Hung Parliament or Minority Government outcome interesting:doh::scratch::dunno: What will be interesting will the be political shenanigans, compromises, betrayals of promises etc that will follow.:coffee::snork:

                      Hi Rosebay, you could say I'm up to speed on Russell Brand.......which is why I personally couldn't put any weight to his opinions, advice, or life. I can think of many people who's opinions I respect, some on GC, who carry more weight with me. Having said that, I follow my own thoughts and not others.:coffee::snork:

                        No Russell is not that superficial...he sincerely believes it is a chance to bring about real change...did you watch the video in the link I gave?
