Living proof that the Conservative Party is finished, and still living in the 70's Posted Wed Oct 4 23:32:29 BST 2000 by 'Jake Thingy'

Did anyone see the front page of the Mirror, about so-called stars supporting Hague: honestly, talk about casting from the Good-grief-I-thought they were dead-category! When I saw the photo of Mike Yarwood I thought it really WAS announcing his death, that'll be his next starring role let's face it.

They DID do a joke along those lines on the 11oCS. Well, not really a joke, because it wasn't even remotely funny.

I enjoyed the humour of the Tory speech that announced they would have on the spot fines of 100 quid for anyone caught with illegal drugs, however small a quantity and however "soft".

Clearly a way to appease all Tories - legalising cannabis would mean they could tax it, but that would upset the blue rinse brigade. So they raise money from the filthy druggies (who need a puff on something before watching the 11ocs to stop them resorting to violence) in another way which will appeal to even more Tories, in the form of an extra crack down (unwise choice of words) on drugs.

When the Tories were in, all these shitheads used to threaten to leave the country if Labour got in. e.g. Jim Davidson, Lloyd-Webber, probably quite a few others. So what now? What's the opposite of leaving? If the Tories get back in, will Jim Davidson never go abroad on holiday again?

There's a letter in the Daily Fascist, er, I mean, Daily Mail today that reads:

The Labour Party Conference had Nelson Mandela. The Tory Party Conference had Jim Davidson. That says it all.

They also had Peter Stringfellow as advisor. Hague is apparently interested in making the Tory party 'sexy'.

In their culture 'debate' they had Anthony Worrel Thompson and Jan Leeming as well...true stars of screen. The Tories conference is one big chat show now, like Pebble Mill at One with all those old blue-rice loons and country folk.

Oh, why thank you. *flutters eyelashes*

BTW, it was true about Ed Stewpot and Mike "Cliff is my best friend and hey, he's no more gay than I am" Read, they were on the front cover of that Daily Mirror that I was burbling on about, with Mike Yarwood and others, under the say-no-more headline "Hague's Hasbeens".

My opinion : If Only.

I'm not against people becoming rich. I'm not against the rich themselves (as such). But the Rich have more ability to pay. Therefore, they should be liable to pay more. Not be given various tax breaks and concessions. Murdoch is a chief case in point, who pays remarkably little UK tax despite controlling the majority of the commercial media in the UK.

Other examples are the inheritance tax thing, that Mark Thomas trumpeted a year or so ago, where generally Rich people can exploit the system to avoid paying tax that they could easily afford.

Despite being against everything I believe in, the fuel tax protestors, from the man-in-the-streets point of view, make a lot more sense compared to this lot of tax dodging Millionaires.

Flicking through Ceefax news pages, I see that seven senior Tories (forgotten who) have admitted to taking illegal drugs at some point in the past. All this, after the proposition of on the spot fines for people with illegal substances. ooops.

(Politicians - don'tcha love their hypocrisy?)

Ooh!! I stumble across the fact that this site is back (yay!) then I see we're still bashing the Tories (double yay!!)

Nice to see nowt's changed. Apart from no red names. Grrrrrr... (quite appropriate that I have a red name, I always thought).

I think the fuel crisis was the best thing that ever happened now. We now see the Tories for what they are -- things were going right for them and still they fight like ferrets in a sack, despite having no pressure piled upon them.

Portillo remains curiously quiet with regard to this drugs thing. While I welcome his apparent liberalism towards gays (not at all self-motivated, I'm sure) I'm pretty sure the reason The Sun suddenly supports the Tories again is because they have some nice juicy drug- and sex- scandles just waiting round the corner. If the Tories get in, the country will go to the dogs but hell, at least politics will be funny again!!

Scandles are wax footwear with a piece of string sticking out. So not only do you look good on the beach, but after you chat up a girl on holiday, you take her to dinner and use it like a candle for amibent lighting - only make sure you take them off your feet first.

(Good to see you back Jase!) :)

Incidentally, flicking through Ceefax news pages I note that Widdecombe Unfair has been anti-gay ranting the Scottish press - after Portillo trying to get the Tories to accept more homosexuals.

Ahh...isn't it great to watch politicians fighting mongst themselves. (Cruel Laughter).

The Sun has never been pro-Labour (well, not since 1974). It is pro-Blair - an important distinction underlined last week by Trevor Kavanagh (its political editor) in the Media Guardian. He said he doubted it would change its stance before the general election.

However, The Sun did give Hague a pretty good shout on Friday. (Everyone else seemed to think some Johnny Foreigners overthrowing some tinpot dictator somewhere was more important.)

Latest polls put Labour in lead again. But it's all very volatile.

William "14 pints" Hague must be the only person in Britain under 40 not to have smoked cannabis.

Nice to see he stuck with a traditional, violence-inducing depressant, rather than going for good karma and the munchies.

I have an idea to bring about the collapse of the Conservative Party, and the downfall of William "14 pricks up my arse" Gaygue, and the breakup of his 'lavender marriage' to Fffffff(annymuncher)ion.
OK, everyone on this forum (and all our friends) who has ever participated in some sort of Tory wrath incurring activity (sex before marriage, gayness, drug use, being unemployed etc) should apply to join the Tory Party. We'll lie low for a while then 'own up' to what we've done, the Tory Party will then implode, leaving us free to take over the world!

I score several points on that sliding scale. But, surely there's a limit to how low one should go to promote the cause? Join The Tory Party?

Tim Yeo has now said something about a good spliff being better than getting pissed up on booze, so he's now slagging off Widdecombe and Hague (mentioning the drinking.) But they clearly all hate her. Next thing, they'll all have a go at Mr Rubberlips.

Um... what I meant, expressed ironically, was that New Labour is so non-left-wing that Webber, Davidson etc. have found they can stay comfortably under its rule. That's all.
