A big F U to the MPAA and the RIAA. This is for making ideas into products and giving back only 5% to music artists.

Prince Harry isn't going to Iraq. Damn. I wanted that ginger runt to be used as a human shield. Its about time the publics taxes aren't used to line the assholes of the royal family with diamonds... But of course Harry cannot go. Maybe if he was killed they would do an autopsy and realise that Prince Charles in NOT the father (obviously) its James fucking Hewitt.
Anyway. The media is so fucking stupid. "Prince Harry Might Go To Iraq Everybody" broadcast for about a week on every fucking frequency... then suddenly the insurgents know about it? Those dastardly insurgents, they must have been watching BBC world service! Oh and they want to make the little ginger runt a specific target! So ging goes back to being just another useless member of the royal family. Great.

Wow, I cannot believe that David Cameron is withdrawing the Conservative Party's support towards grammar schools. That is not very conservative!

Didn't they say they are withdrawing their support because it turned out that it was only benefiting rich kids?PublicImage wrote:Wow, I cannot believe that David Cameron is withdrawing the Conservative Party's support towards grammar schools. That is not very conservative!

Cameron is already under fire because of his public school background whilst trying to appear as a man of the people.
He can't appear to be too elitist.

From what I can see I don't really think there is much difference between both parties anymore.PublicImage wrote:Yes, because they are dominated by the middle classes. He really is trying to turn the Tories into a second Labour party!
Labour are at this stage only slightly left of centre and the Tories and only slightly right of centre.
IMHO there are very few differences in modern politics and anyone who is tends to be seen as slightly radical. Its all just different shades of blue.

You get parties that start out with one ethos gradually moving to the centre/the right. Then another smaller party moves into the void they've left behind...then that party gets bigger & gets notions of power and starts changing. It's like The Wall - an ever-repeating cycle
