I agree that it's hardly a statisticly valid sample and the questions that they chose were always likely to generate kneejerk responces but I cant see the folks at Sky News wanting to skew the results by choosing to poll only skinheads because it hardly makes them look credible to do so.

The problem is that whether you consider them to be scum or not, a great many people agree with what they have to say. http://www.sky.com/skynews/article/0,,30100-13520516,00.html

I don't hink anybody actually wants the BNP in power but I would disagree that a vote for either the far left or the far right is ever wasted. It privides one of the very few ways of forcing a mandate on mainstreem politics irrespective of who actually wins the seat. I have no idea how the BNP councilors who won seats in the last round faired beyond the couple of wasters who dropped out of the chamber soon after actually winning a place. It would be interesting to hear a first hand report about how they got on.

ShedHed. You plug would have been an Abu Hi-Lo. My biggest pike was 25. Not weighed so I can't call it bigger than that but it was definatly at least that weight. I like to catch lots of fish though rather than keep going after a few biguns.

Is the ban actually being enforced ? If so by whom ? Have the pubs emptied as people stay at home to drink ? Has pub culture changed - maybe with more falilies using them ? Prior to the ban, there were dire warnings of the cosequenses of stopping smoking and I'm curious about whether the concerns were well founded.

I reckon that the identikit artist who caused a storm a couple of months ago is still working. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/london/4959980.stm

Lock him in a cell with a large lonely gentleman called Bubba !

There's no such thing as bad publisity. I wonder when the new ablum's duie out ?

Perch !!!!!! Quiet man, you'll upset the natives

Both of you are murderers ! Chip shops sell the corpses of sea fish. Don't you know how much the eating of said corpses is going to upset the chappies on the sea fishing forum ?

Use a float. No, I'm not being nasty. Try a heavy running line outfit with a large weghted waggler. Overcast and drag it back to where the fish are.

I was planning on using Vaseline on my big dear hair pike flies this summer. lypsyl sounds much less messy though. Chears guys.

Sportsman. Dare I suggest you spend a little time in a major city, use public transport and attempt to access services within it's inner housing area. Then you might understand where I and many other posters are comming from. I don't ask you to agree, just understand.

Nah, That's "Aural Sex"

We should have our own version: Dear Tony I'm about to plan a little trip with my family, and I would like to ask you to assist me. I'm going to fly off to Afganistan to see the himalayas, and I need to make a few arrangements. I know you can help with this. I plan to skip all the legal stuff like visas, passports, immigration quotas and laws. I'm sure they handle those things the same way you do here. So, would you mind telling your buddy, President Kharzi, that I'm on my way over? Please let him know that I will be expecting the following 1. Free medical care for my entire family. 2. English-speaking government bureaucrats for all services I might need, whether I use them or not. 3. All government forms need to be printed in English. 4. I want my kids to be taught by English-speaking teachers. 5. Schools need to include classes on British culture and history. 6. I want my kids to see the Union Jack flying on the top of the flag pole at their school with the Afghan flag flying lower down. 7. Please plan to feed my kids at school for both breakfast and lunch. 8. I will need a local Afghan driver's license so I can get easy access to government services. 9. I do not plan to have any car insurance, and I won't make any effort to learn local traffic laws. 10. In case one of the Afghan police officers does not get the memo from Pres. Kharzi to leave me alone, please be sure that all police officers speak English. 11. I plan to fly the Union Jack from my house top, put flag decals on my car, and have a gigantic celebration every Christmas. I do not want any complaints or negative comments from the locals. 12. I would also like to have a nice job without paying any taxes, and don't enforce any labor laws or tax laws. 13. Please tell all the people in the country to be extremely nice and never say a critical word about me, or about the strain I might place on the economy. 14. If I do happen to loose my rag and go on a mad orgy or rape and murder, please ensure that I am released back into the community after a short sentence with no mention of all that tedious deportation nonsence. I know this is an easy request because you already do all these things for all the people who come to the U.K. from Afghanistan. I am sure that Pres. Kaharzi won't mind returning the favor if you ask him nicely. However, if he gives you any trouble, just invite him to go into a timeshare agreement with that nice Mr Berlesconi. Thank you so much for your kind help. Sincerely, U.K. Taxpayer

This has occurred in my local Tesco's carpark but might happen elsewhere. There are two very attractive young ladies who lie in wait in one of the darker corners of the supermarket car park. If a lone male driver appears, they flirt outragously and wiggle arround. If the man shows any sign of "responding", one of them will strip to her pants and dance suggestivly in font of the guy while the other undoes his trousers and gives him oral sex. Whilst performing oral sex, the girl on her knees goes through the guy's trouser pockets and steels his phone and wallet. THIS IS REAL ! I myself got caught by this on Monday, Tuesday, twice on Wednesday and again on Thursday.

Two problems wth trailers in the UK. 1. Reversing the things. Our roads are narrow and twisty and in rural areas, they're often single track. Having to reverse uop with a trailer is a pain in the bum. 2. We live in a land populated by thieving bar stewards.

All well and good but I was able to find a friend who (although registered to vote) doesn't show up on the published electoral role. People who work in areas like the security services really don't need the bad guy's to be able to find them and their families easily.

The local car boot sales are also well worth a look.

That Pythagarus chappie is a tricksy little devil and no mistake.

Brinkmanship and stupidity seem to know few boundaries.

I agree. It's the PC BS that I have a major issue with. I reckon that less than 1 in 5,000 people in this country could reckognise the SS Windrush from a photo. Then, there simply has to be some stuff from the regions and a celebration of ethnic "culture".

I love the world cup. If I want to go fishing, I have the river to myself. If I want to go on the pull, the bars are full of women and no competition. If I want to go to a nice restaurant, no waiting. I just wish it happened more often........
