    Would you recommend your paid vpn BAH? Simple to use and set up? 

    Yes I would recommend. As long as you have a basic idea of what you are using it for and why, you should be able to use it.*

     

    OpenVPN Connect by OpenVPN Technologies

    Free ones are fine but you need the bandwidth to stream video which you don't tend to get with them.

     

    *to caveat, I haven't tried it with ifollow so the risk is yours.

    It's a broadcasting rule enforced by Ofcom dating back to the 1960s which states that no live football may be shown on British television between the hours of 2.45pm and 5.15pm on a Saturday. Blame Bob Lord basically.

    And I totally agree with it. For one.

    We are keeping it open seeing as though the vicar's daughter cannot last very long at all obviously.

    You might want to take away your ball but democracy doesnt work that way.

    Like Corbyn, don't pretend to represent the majority. You are not 'we'.

     

    The thread has moved into discussions about a fire in London and people are using it for political point scoring at will. It's badly misguided, ill judged and frankly disgusting.

    Again I'm hardly unbiased but Jezza is looking increasing Prime Ministerial compared to his bumbling oppo. When even the like of Piers sodding Morgan are tweeting pictures of him at Grenfell with the 3 words "empathy, humanity, leadership" underneath you know the sands are shifting.

    I suppose if Theresa is Ellis Plumber then Jezza is doing a cracking Jamie Reckord.

     

    Neither are a Dennis Irwin and I don't see one in either party.

    If this was the Labour Party trying to get propped up by Sinn Fein there would have been a military coup by now.

    It isn't.

     

    The political landscape of this country also means it is never likely to be. Ironcially its also the same reason that labour will struggle to get an outright majority of its own in the near future.

    Only one of the 2 major parties is likely to be seeking a new leader in the foreseeable and it isn't Labour. 

    The poll this weekend that showed every possible Tory leadership candidate as being less popular than May was hilarious. They genuinely don't know what to do.

    You still trust polls, do you?

    Props to everyone sticking by the line that the Tories won more seats and had a bigger vote share etc...after seeing the face of the victorious weird robot lady. Keep going, brothers and sisters. It'll stick eventually. 

     

    They did win more seats and they did have a bigger share of the vote.

    Any of the so called 'big beasts' back into the Shad Cab? Chuka certainly seems to be angling for one...

     

    Moving for future leadership opportunities?

  8. For what it's worth, I'm gutted the polls were wrong AGAIN and I'm almost suggesting they are tantamount to Election tampering. Anyway, whatever the result, a hung parliament is the worst possible outcome and I'm not keen on the DUP at all.

     

    That said, I'm glad the SNP took a battering. May monumentally fucked this campaign right up, if nothing else, it'll make for interesting viewing over the next few weeks to few months. I said to someone a week or so ago that Boris would be PM on 1/1/18 probably should have looked at the odds.

    I really think they have a chance, remarkable considering. 

    They are all turning on May, rightly so. Tories have been tight and disciplined for ultras, so Labour have to exploit their division mercilessly. 

    It will be quite easy for Corbyn to stay disciplined if he chooses, he has a mandate but must  get a top team in place. 

    Tories are as divided over Europe as they ever were. 

    Our electoral system does make it very hard though.

    A few by elections and get an agreement with Lib Dems and Green for boundary reform and even proportional representation  and they could have a majority. A clear enough path exists. 

     

    Next boundary reform is due in September next year and is due to reduce sitting MPs to 600.

     

    That isn't an easy process to speed up.
