....looks like Sir Beer and co may well be boracic when they have to fight the next GE.

The thing is, if there was a GE next week, Labour would not b=need any money to fight a campaign. The Tories have done that for them and they would romp home by a country mile. I don't really see the situation being much different in a year's time, but a year is an awfully long time in politics.

To diverge a little towards Tora's Cockney rhyming slang - some years back, when "Jurassic Park" was all the rage, my late mother-in-law believed initially it was called "Boracic Park." We let this ride for a while and when we finally corrected her she asked "So where's Boracic Park, then?" It had to be done, so we told her it was where all the skint dinosaurs lived! :-)

I like that NJ.

You are of course right about the election.
At the moment the Tories don’t have a cricket’s carbolic in Dingly of winning one.

What is sad is that the mockney only does it to irritate people. S(he) actually enjoys being provocative and stirring it up for his/her pleasure - a sort of showing off (a la Clarkson and assorted US shock jocks.) I remember a daft kid at school like that.
