You may mock but there is actually quite a lot of philosophising going on in Gangsta's Paradise, for example:

Someone voting Lib Dem thinks Coolio is a "philosopher"....says it all...

Hmm, JRM, no O level, hmm, let's see. Oh yes, educated at Eton college. Second class honours degree at Trinity college. Learned to read company reports and balance sheets at the age of ten when he started investing in the stock market. (Note please that that's a proper degree, not a Billy Liar degree).

I wasn't talking about JRM. He will be unaffected and probably to the good as a result of Brexit. I didn't do any Keith Waterhouse novels in my English degree. I have read that one though.

Really? Because you wrote,

Watch JRM. Rarely do we see a properly formed sentence. It’s mostly “WTO NOW!” despite the fact they don’t have an O level between them, let alone an Economics one.


So, lying again? Or merely (very short term) memory loss?

Never understood why anyone would take the effort to get to a polling station only to spoil their ballot paper. Unless you're newres of course, they don't take kindly to people scribbling on the papers with a Crayola.

I don't think they really care, just another column to tick. But I think there will be record numbers of spoiled papers and I just want to feel part of something that is actually growing for once.

You're possibly right, the important thing is to register your displeasure I'm just not certain that wasting a good hard earned vote is the right way.

JRM speaks to callers, the viewers type their comments. I said we SEE their comments.

Thought of you guys:

🗳 Today is #LocalElections2019 day!

☑️ NORMAL PEOPLE: Go vote for who you feel will be best to represent you locally. Polls close at 10pm

☑️ GAMMON: Go on your local Facebook group and tell us you won’t vote for the main parties (despite the fact these are local elections), angrily read The Sun or Daily Mail, claim you’re voting Brexit party or UKIP, waddle along to the polling station and spoil your vote...that’ll show ‘em, wallow in your own brine, punch your keyboard, make out the media are hiding the truth, claim the BBC are biased, scrape your dried bodily fluids off your yellow vest, change your profile picture to include a union flag, or a poppy, or a soldier in silhouette [you choose], go back on Facebook and post a badly-photoshopped and pixelated meme containing factually incorrect information, then post another one as not enough people clicked like on the first one which annoyed you, ejaculate over Brexit, get angry whilst watching Question Time, go on Facebook to tell everyone you’re angry watching question time, bring Dianne Abbott into an online conversation despite the fact she’s probably irrelevant to the original post, punch keyboard again, mummy then sends you to bed.

And somewhere in amongst all that they will have voted tory anyway, rather than spoil their paper, cos deep down they're all conformists anyway.

I think the sensible thing to do is to be concerned only with local issues. I’ll probably vote Green even though our candidate is a bit of a knob.


Only a bit? If ever there was a political movement that is out of touch with reality it is the Green Party. They want us all to cycle everywhere yet advocate being in the greater european federation with complete movement of goods across the continent. Makes the rest almost credible. rolleyes.gif

Remember their candidate from a few years ago, had so little clue about pollution issues he thought bragging about his land rover running on used chip fat was 'being green' and couldn't see the irony of him heating his house in the country by burning wood. Oh how we laughed.
