I think therefore I am (not a Tory supporter) - 13 August 2011 10:46120378Interesting stuff there guys.
I think some of those surveys almost prod a certain response.
Do you want a bomb to go off in London sort of thing. 97% say NO.
The vote on Boris is interesting. Its both good and bad. 29% say his position has worsened yet 69% say his performance made no difference. So thats probably a good endorsement of his performance considering the general level of upset. I thought he had a good riot, if I can put it that way, out there meeting the angry people first hand, swirling his broom about to good effect, he was out there in the mix.
But about the broom and Boris. One wag on Sky News said last evening that Boris probably doesnt know which end of the broom one is supposed to use !
One thing for certain, the whole nation does NOT want to see cuts in police numbers.email: dover7@msn.com - 13 August 2011 11:05120382Yesterday I read a letter to the Grauniad online from one of my neighbours here in leafy Stoke Newington concerning our near absence of riotous behaviour. The correspondent had heard the noise of loud banging outside and feared the worst only to discover that it was nothing more that a man cleaning his shoe after treading in doggy-deposits. Shortly thereafter I ventured out and was a little astonished to see a high level of Police presence: Might our turn have come?
But, no. It was only Boris visiting the local Fire Station...in complete safety.Ignorance is bliss, bliss is happiness, I am happy...to draw your attention to the possible connectivity in the foregoing. - Keith Sansum1

13 August 2011 19:54120529without doubt for whatever reason boris is becoming more popular with the tory faithful
whilst for sa number of reasons cameron is losing his popularityALL POSTS ARE MY OWN PERSONAL VIEWS - 13 August 2011 21:08120544both cut from the same stone keith.
seems like hobsons choice to me, i would prefer to be led by an achiever, the one good thing about lady thatcher is that she advocated and promoted a meritcocracy. - 14 August 2011 06:51120571Not the same stone but cast in the same place.
Lady Thatcher........meritocracy? Perhaps but may have been different if she had been Establishment at the outset!!!
Don`t think the miners would agree though. - Keith Sansum1

14 August 2011 11:33120615We have said before, maggie was without doubt a good leader(for her own)
at least everyone knew where she was coming from
i disagreed with most of what she did
what we have now is cameron a very weak leader, not even supported by his own supporters.
and boris shuffling around waiting for the leadership election and likely to win!!!ALL POSTS ARE MY OWN PERSONAL VIEWS
