Why not have John Prescott as our next pm ? There have been some negative remarks about the guy on this site, but let's face it what better man for the job. Straight speaker, great politican and an educated man. Come on guys just think of a new Britain under him. |

Well there you go Ted, we agree on something, if more people voted Scottish Nationalist and not New Labour, we'd get more independence, and you'd get less Scots running your country. Mind you it may be a throwback to 1706 when a Scottish king took over the English throne, but hey what does a haggis munching transvestite know about history? ☺ Giok |

The humourless git sounds like a robot endlessly repeating the 'party line' to me. He's always struck me as a glassy-eyed,'I voss only following orders' type. I hate the thought of having to choose between 'commissar' Reid and Prezza - like having to choose between having your eyes gouged out with an old spoon or having your legs sawed off with a rusty saw. |

11 May 07 - 05:02 PM (#2049492) Subject: RE: BS: John Prescott for Prime Minister From: McGrath of Harlow "the next prime minister will be David Cameron". Not until and unless there's an election in which the Tories get into power. The most likely outcome when there's an election in a couple of years time will be a hung parliament, with the Liberals backing whoever agrees to introduce electoral reform. |
