[gulliver1]

Has announced, he will be standing down as an MP at the GE. He joins 30 other Tory MPs who have announced exit plans including Sajid Javid, and George Eustice .Do you think they know the writing is on the wall for the Cons

I dont think captures 'troll' - or else AB is full of trolls. TTT for example wd fit this bill. But I wdnt say the dear little fellow is anything like a troll.

Trewen - what is an Oak? may well fit the bill.
oh and "I am a 15 y o and have double dysdiadokinesis which my parents ( durr...) dont know about. I am locked in ma room for throwing lighted fireworks at the disabled three year old next door. It is SOOOO unfair....and there is this party tonight where all the boys ( luv'em) will be wearing girls knickers ( or their muvvuz)....

The average age of Tory MPs quitting the Commons before the GE,..... Is 15 years younger than Labour MPs quitting.
That means the Tory MPs were taught how to milk the system far quicker .

[retrocop]

If you say so. Yaaaaaaaaaaaaawn

[Peter Pedant]

I agree that there seems to be a tier of Tory MPs who have decided that they have no future in Politics
and they have to find a new job or the Dole queue

Ed Balls was asked after his unexpected defeat what he was gonna do and said - - - I have no idea

Labour in opposition are very poor.

We have a car crash of a Conservative Government and Labour can’t even find anyone to rubberneck at the ensuing carnage.
No wonder Labour’s supporters are so uninspired and boring.

PP \\ make a deliberately offensive or provocative online post with the aim of upsetting someone or eliciting an angry response from them.//
Do you not think that is exactly what gulliver's intentions are?

Bobbisox, you are quite accurate in your summary. However, I have adopted a foolproof way of avoiding being bear baited or wound up by Gulliver - I do not read his posts. Happy days.
