    "numpty"

    beautiful Scots word, I'm glad to see it has made its way elsewhere.

    Now "teuchter" must be popularised too.

    oh, yeah, to keep it on topic, Red Ken is definitely a numpty but I'd be shocked if he were a teuchter.

    I hate Ken with a passion, even more after he got repremanded for his jew comments and yet has still somehow escaped any real punishment....

    Didnt he appeal or something? and lo and behold his punishment was overturned?

    And what does he actually do? apart from insult various cultural groups and tax raod users for a public transport system that still doesnt get any better.

    He keeps newts.
    There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.

    He is in China on an official visit along with other members connected with the Olympics - Lord Coe included, but then again, he is a Tory so doesn't get the same harrassing and damnation.

    He said a couple of silly remarks, but as ever it has to be plastered all over the press and news as some terrible statement etc, which is bollocks. So what if he says some silly things sometimes, the fact remains he does a lot of good and does them for the ordinary worker on the street of any London town - which is why we vote for him and why he was easily our Mayor. Also why he will be in the position for a long time to come, the more the right wing press blow his comments out of all proportion the more ordinary people don't give a flying....

    GARCIN: I died too soon. I wasn't allowed time to - to do my deeds.
    INEZ: One always dies too soon - or too late. And yet one's whole life is complete at that moment, with a line drawn neatly under it, ready for the summing up. You are - your life, and nothing else.

    It is very interesting what you classify as "ordinary".

    I wouldn't bother JAG.

    Somebody keeps churning out these kind of threads for a bit of what passes as 'commie-bashing' fun in these parts. It's a cheap and easy way to get your threads noticed on this forum. The good'ole boys take the bait and bash away! Yee-hah!

    That's a new one. The BBC 'right wing press'. You're such a card.

    Lol. Really, I didn't mean to offend anyone, so don't break my balls.

    I was addressing JAG, suggesting that he just let the boys have their fun and let off steam at another 'Red' bogeyman.

    I could pull random 'news' stuff like this out of the Times everyday for your fun and delectation if I was so minded.
