give up, mate. His mind's made up.

I recall a saying 'never argue with an idiot,,,,,,,,,,,,,,'

so not agreeing with you makes someone an idiot?

No, there were two distinct statements.

 

The first "give up, mate. His mind's made up."

 

And the second. "I recall a saying 'never argue with an idiot,,,,,,,,,,,,,,"

 

I never said theezenutz was an idiot. I said I recall a saying.

[DaKKs_152]

The fact that you said something in a roundabout way doesn't mean its any less insulting. It was quite clear what you meant.

I don't agree with the guy on a lot of things either, but calling someone an idiot just a like that is a jerk move. (See? I didn't call you a jerk. Just that calling someone an idiot without cause is a jerk move.)

[@Lee]

Do you not get it? I didn't call him an idiot even though he may or may not be IMO, the same as I may be an idiot in his opinion.

The fact is, I didn't call him an idiot.

So UKIP,

are they about to gain lots of new MEP's or not as the results are announced.?

 

A right bunch of Idiots in my opinion, thats the UKIP Members, 

not saying that about anyone that voted for them, they might be, then maybe they are not.

No doubt a significant number of UK seats but will they link up with any other EU country groups to form a significant power base or will they be just a bunch of loan voices taking the MEP pay and causing the occasional scuffle in the EU parliament.

 

Only an hour or two to find out most of the results and particularly the London/SE and Scottish results.

[Ootohere]

This should update as results come in.

Watching it live.

 

Labour and UKIP both gain an extra seat in the North East and Conservatives and Liberals both lost their seats.  Hmmm, 

[lol-lol]

Eastern England unsuprising and saddening result for inclusive society. 

 

UKIP 4, Cons 4, Labour 3. 

 

Probably UKIPs best country zone reported and other more moderate areas will probably temper these results I reckon. 

[lol-lol]

East Midlands annouced (national cummulative):-

 

UKIP      6

Cons      5

Lab        4

 

so far.

 

Libs loose their seat to UKIP.

I did vote. But as a motoring pensioner I look back on a joke idea on where to place a statue of a former PM. Next to a bloke who never lied, or next to one who always did, since said bloke didn't know the difference. I had a great pension expectatrions till Gorbo the guff and his lot sold out the national treasures for a few beans. Then after 65, I got mobility problems. No great deal you say ,except that after 65, the Dept of Wallies and plonkers  ( headed by a minister who has said he'd be willing to live on JSA allowance for a week, but to date has failed to honour his promise),want us to sit at home in bathchairs and be attended on, if you can get aby help from them to let you get help.

[lol-lol]

Wow, vote in the South-West of England.

 

UKIP gain two, Cons loose one, LibDem wiped out and Labour and Greens win a seat each.

 

Current total:-

 

UKIP 12

Cons 9

Lab 8

Green 1

Libs - Zero

Call people racist at every oportunity to silence them for having human emotions typically under the pretext that they are white. Then the tollerance and liberal apethy we have in this country will give way to this sort of outporing of anger. Its not media spin or inherent racism its democracy and the will of the people.

You might have to get an electric car like the Norwegian governent force their citizens to do!

Norwegians forced to buy electric cars? Can you explain?

[Ootohere]

Taxed High & Priced out of Petrol & Diesel engined cars.

Generous Subsidies on Electric Vehicles.

 

Norway is not Stupid though, they can Produce Electricity cheaply from Hydro & wind,

and sell the Gas & Oil they have for more income, but also sell electricity.

Just as Scotland can with its production of Electric from Hydro & Renewables,

They have more Electric Production than the Population require.

Nick Cleggs Black Armoured BMW looks quite smart.

 

I thought he would be going back to a nice profitable job in the EU,

but not sure now which country he will work in.

 

15 minutes of fame and known World Wide as a chancer that just liked being on the Gravy Train.

The quicker, Dr Cable. Danny Alexander and the rest are out of British Politics the better.
