If you do, then I sincerely pity you.
Lol, I've never taken The Sun seriously - it's just a bit of light reading / looking (mainly Page 3 - I find 'The News In Breifs' very informative! 8) )

UK Prime Minister Tony Blair was reduced to near-incoherence by Jeremy Paxman last night as he admitted he has now idea how many illegal immigrants are in this country. The Premier was asked no fewer than 20 times to give a number-but ducked and weaved as he failed to do so. Sounding increasingly desperate, he insisted that speculating about numbers was "pointless". Yet one of the Governments own experts recently estimated the total here as 500,000-though his findings were suppressed by the Home Office.

In the 1983 Australian General Election newspaper owned by Rupert Murdoch backed the Liberal-Nationalist coalition however that election was won by the Australian Labour Party. So the Murdoch owned newspapers switched to the Australian Labour Party.

That would explain his hammering of the immigration issue!

Would YOU vote for the Dyslexia Party?

This was popped through my door today by some nice person acting on behalf of the possible future Foreign Secretary. The postcode for Pewsey definitely starts SN9 and not S9N. Imagine the possibilities if he was in charge of planning the co-ordinates for the next war.

Shouldn't it be "Jane and I..."? :roll:

Nope, you take one half or the other out and see if it still makes sense, don't you.

"For Jane it has not only been...." or "For me it has not only been...." are both okay; "For I it has not only been...." sounds silly.

Surely he should learn how to write in a straight line before going into politics?

Michael Howard was asked the same question when he was Home Secretary & he hadn't a fucking clue then either.

No illegal imigrant will ever admit they are one unless they are caught
