When all is said and done, anyone that votes conservative is a self serving cnut, they're sub-human.

I wonder what an "Impious Pilot" might say?

I think I know what a c**t is, but I'm unclear on the self-serving bit. It sounds like something one does at a petrol station.

If the intention is to portray conservative voters as somehow selfish or greedy, I think I must object. I don't vote conservative because I am greedy; I vote conservative because I am wealthy and landed and the Tories are good at keeping the riff raff in their place and out of mine.

"Pious Pilot" obviously never had the misfortune of having the "Man from Kircaldy" as his Passenger.

That may be so, but the alternative of voting Labour is considerably worse, by several orders of magnitude.

I suppose there's Liberal, but they're the transvestites of politics, can't make their mind up one way or the other.

I'll stick with self-serving cnut, thank you. I've worked bloody hard for what I've got, taken risks, fallen on my face once or twice, been kicked in the balls on occasion, but on the whole, I'm doing alright. Call me self serving if you like, but I did my time serving the Colours. A mutually beneficial relationship. The mob got the best years of my life, I got a very thorough preparation for success in civvy life. Win-win.

Over the last 30 odd years and not having the brain of a goldfish, I have come to realise that all parties are the same. But I really would like you to justify and quantify your comment above after all that we have seen in the last several months from the present government.
And pleeeessssee don’t say it was because of the amount of debt the last government left us in, that really is becoming a bit of a lame excuse.

By the way I am totally disgusted by the use of the word cnut.
I have said this before and in my opinion people that use this “hidden” language should be banned. My wife and a few friends read this site and they really don’t appreciate it.

Cazatou,
Sir, I'm not sure how to put this, but perhaps a little more sensitivity to current affairs and research of news stories might be advised before posting...

'The Man from Kirkcaldy' :- and his dog?

The repatriation of a soldier killed while serving in Afghanistan will take place on Thursday 10 March, with the cortege passing through Wootton Bassett at approximately 3.30pm.
Lance Corporal Liam Richard Tasker, 26 from Kircaldy in Fife, of the Royal Army Veterinary Corps, died on Tuesday 1 March 2011.

I'm fairly sure that Thursday's crew will have no complaints about the behaviour of Corporal Tasker as a passenger on their AT aeroplane.

Voting labour or liberal would just make you stupid, conservative is a different ball game. You have to be a cnut to agree with their ideology, same goes with republicans in spamland.
Labour/libs at least try to do right by people, even if they do continually fail, I wouldn't personally vote for them.

But cons are simply cnuts of the earth that I wouldn't pee on if they were on fire, let them put it out for themselves, horrible horrible scummy cretins.

So, just out of interest, who would you vote for / have running the country?

An octopus, I'd vote for an octopus that dipped in to a little food container from a choice of 2. Each container would represent a decision to be made.

At least the octopus would get the answer correct ~50% of the time.

Who would you vote for?

A cnut is a hole left on a tree from where a branch was cut.

I promise I won't use it again. But every con is one and everyone that votes for them are too.

Maybe not quite the same scum as Blair (He was a con in drag anyway), but definitely from the same septic tank.

The amount of debt the last government left the UK in so immense that the lame excuses are all tired out. That, however, does nothing to address the fact that the UK has a truly crippling debt, that did not exist in 1997 when Labour came to power.

From a Defence perspective, there was a SDR in 1998. Then nothing. No strategic political direction, just muddling along in support of the US. No properly funded equipment programs, just a desire to keep the "British worker" in a job. What a ridiculous state of affairs.

Perhaps you do not recall the last days of the Callaghan Government in 1979. I do, and I was all of 11 or 12. Mountains of bin bags on the sports fields. Dead people not being buried. Power cuts. Constant strikes. A national disgrace.

I emigrated in 2005, so I'm well out of it. I live in "spamland", where there are only degrees of Conservatism. Long may that continue. When I visit the UK, I am embarrassed that it has got to the state that it has. A further national disgrace. Hopefully the Conservative government will get through its baptism of fire and put right some of the injustices of the last 14 years of political and financial holocaust.

To be honest, I don’t really disagree with anything you have said. Yes the country is in a mess, arguably left by the last Government. But I don’t believe for one minute that it would have been any different under any other party. People do need to stop being so blinkered by just blaming one party or the other. It’s a big world out there with many influences. Political decisions are generally based on these influences, but they are only made in the interest of the ruling party and not the country, irrespective of the long term implications of those decisions.

But what really disgusts me is what is happening to our armed forces at the moment. And “at the moment” it is happening under a Tory Government.

All of our politicians need a good kick up ar$e and stop being self-centred, headline grabbing, power mongering idiots who are all trying to be as famous as Winston Churchill or Margaret Thatcher. They just want their names written in the history books…….and will do whatever it takes to achieve it!

Regards

By the way, good luck with your life in “spamland”. I do think you made a good move.

First let me state that I was unaware of the demise of that gallant Soldier. You will note, however, that I am resident in rural France.

The phrase "The man from Kircaldy" came from a satirical magazine in reference to a certain Politician who used to reside at No 10 Downing Street after a disastrous spell as the resident at No 11 Downing Street. That phrase has been current for some considerable time.

If any offence has been caused to the relatives of the gallant soldier I unreservedly apologise.

SRENAPS don't be a prissy cnut
This forum is supposed to be like a military crewroom. We swear in them, and dont generally encourage wives and girlfriends. If they don't like it then they are free to take their delicate sensibilities elsewhere.
It is just a word.
Chaucer used it, Shakespeare danced around it so I feel free to use it.

I don’t have any problems with normal swearing and certainly not in any crewroom. And if you knew me, you would know that.

However, this is a rather “open to the public” crewroom and viewed by many who like to judge the armed forces.

But if you feel you need to use what is considered the most distasteful four letter swear word, in public, then so be it. It’s not my cup of tea, but each to their own and we all have different standards.

My apology. I may have started off the rash of using the word in one of my posts last week.
