Sea side towns seem particularly bad. I've been to several former industrial towns around me and used to work in one. It was no where near as bad as they places in that video.

they've been on a downward since package holidays arrived in the early 70s. if doing green (by own actions) was meaning anything to the population. these places would be boomtowns.

A person who suggests they are left wing is a tory?

You are a funny man - you take a few words from the start and the answer and totally ignore the bulk of what is written to try and make some totally different point and pretend I wrote something I obviously did not. Good Grief Charlie Brown.

I imagine it's a toss up for you this year, mega yacht in the med or weston-super-mare. Obviously as your green credentials are so good you'll be choosing the latter I'm sure.

in Bristol currently, that's the conversation the green party are starting (nothing about their policies) - its another mark against the possibility of the greens winning their no.1 target seat.

are you suggesting Neil actually votes Tory...or just using the term Tory as an insult?

I dont have a clue where he stands in terms of parliamentary protocol, but if it’s just about SNP playing political games with no chance of influencing the situation, this seems sensible.

Well ok...but also don't think the SNP are going to let this go so not sure how long Hoyle can carry on if one party has lost confidence in him.

The SNP and some backbench Tory MPs aren’t going to be able to get rid of the Speaker.

I don’t think there should be another vote on a Gaza ceasefire when there was one last week anyway. It seems to be a waste of Parliamentary time when there’s plenty of other stuff for them to be looking at.

don't think I've ever called anyone a climate change denier, and only called the destroyers Tories.i used to get accused of banning anyone who disagreed with me, but did a bad job of that by who is still around. 😛

Well, to be fair, Neil, you and I have been consistently disagreeing for 10 years* and you have never banned me.

Neil’s wrong about almost everything apart from him thinking the SNP have done a woeful job of running Scotland for 17 years, he’s spot on there.

Thanks for your opinion, Neil.

Can't remember if I said that or not, but it's not totally implausible. 

If I did say it, I was wrong.
