1. DDz Quorum B16Enk Posted March 27, 2009 1. DDz Quorum Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 Politics aside, you have to hand it to this guy for being a great orator. A lot of what he says rings true, yet this spiel got very little (as in NONE) press coverage.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blairgowrie Posted March 27, 2009 Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 Bloody scathing but a great speech. I don't think Gordon liked it even although he was smirking. Time the Tories got back in and bought Jaguar back from Tata. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jediteo Posted March 27, 2009 Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 Eloquent and well presented, yet not my kind of speech, but I guess the UK parliements have a more personal approach. More wellspoken than the current administration. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DD_Brando Posted March 27, 2009 Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 Time [for] the Tories got back in and bought Jaguar back from Tata...... And then banged the mortgage rates up - so we can all drive E-types down to the Jobcentre? Been there BG, got the ragged T-shirt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2. Administrators Jabo Posted March 27, 2009 2. Administrators Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 At risk of fanning the flames further, that was a fantastic speech. I really cannot abide that smug git who's happily spending my taxes propping up the lifestyles of the greedy gosh, gosh, gosh (Bless me Friar)ers who caused this sorry mess in the first place. Ya listenin Fred? ~S~ Jabo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DD_Arthur Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 Do you think the Tories will get back? Strange, I've never got rid of mine. They dont call her the 'Iron Lady' for nothing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JensenPark Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 Wow...nice. As someone quite involved in politics on this side of the pond, I have to say I'm quite impressed with his grasp of the situation - but more so of his speaking ability.

Tribunus Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 Finally a politician that will tell the Truth. But he's one man trying to hold back the tide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1. DDz Quorum B16Enk Posted March 28, 2009 Author 1. DDz Quorum Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 The thing is, his speech came to the public's attention through two bloggers, the UK press ignored it completely until it became a web phenomenon. Some startling figures quoted. 'Every child is born with a £20,000 debt, and servicing the interest on that debt alone is going to cost more than educating that child' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shocked, SHOCKED I am that the media would ignore something that might reflect badly on a favored political leader! DT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
