Careful now them might be fighting words to some you know... :-D

Give me Mr and Mrs May anytime Mr and Mrs B never popular around here

Popular with some, Kense, but not everyone, certainly not in this area. Not everyone goes along with the views of media owners.

Rollo please don't keep quoting me try and come up with your own thoughts for once :-D :-D

I'm not sure why you'd think Mr and Mrs May would be so awful compared to Mr and Mrs Blair...politics aside if that's possible...they came across as a close caring (of each other at least) couple....

Funny how Blair used to be so popular but since Mr Murdoch turned against him for some reason ;-) almost nobody has a good word to say for him. Does The Sun really control this country?

Noooo, Rollo, I thought they were fine on telly and I am a swinging voter. :-S

Now, Mr and Mrs Blair, however ....... too much.

But look how dangerous an imagination can be in the wrong hands... :-)

.....at least you have been deemed to have an imagination, Caroline. :-D

By the way as already stated in another thread...I never wanted Le Pen to win :-D

Corbyn to the tower, now there's an idea

Sorry been out for a little while and came back and found this....have to say WTF??

LOL not sure where that was coming from Rollo.....not often I'm accused of having feelings but heyho.
I'm pretty sure it would be a short book in this case...in fact I've given the whole plot away, that said I was on carrying on from others statements but again heyho.
Sounds like you'd like to write a book on it though so be my guest :-)

Oh dear can you imagine it....a French Blair and a French Cherie maybe ?? :-(

Can't help it, Rollo. As much as I can see the differences, as I said, I still have that same feeling.

I hope I'm wrong for the French people's sake.

Rollo, let me ask you a question.

Do you believe in deja vu?

Do you think there is any chance that Macron who founded En Marche! could possibly turn out to be a clone of Blair who 'founded' New Labour?

The policies may not be the same but I have this eerie feeling that we've been here before. Just can't shake it off no matter how many the differences in the party lines.

:-D

Tá mé compordach i nGaeilge. Téim go dtí Éire i mí Lúnasa chomh maith.

Je suis a l'aise en Francais. Je vais en France au mois d'aout.

The best part of Macron winning was the very funny Twitters, which led to some saying "It's time to stop this sexualization of politics."

The tweeters were trying to decide who was the sexiest ........... Justin Trudeau or Macron

:-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D



Makes a change for MEN to be sexualized :-D

'Affectation' - I try to use this apt word very sparingly.

Actually I never said she would win I said never write anyone off who knows what the future holds, unlike some I never make rash predictions. As much as we loathe her party they did gain more votes than they've ever had before, including almost half the youth vote.

Who says neither of us already speaks French or other languages?

I've always said Le Pen was extreme you've always assumed I'm a right wing bigot...I never make assumptions I like to balance everything out and wait for the results.
