Of course that's not you.
Silly, giddy kipper, goose.
Your description, that I had to supply for the police, was much more detailed.

Sounds great but not true..dig all you like you won't find anything.. which is more than can be said for your regular "dipping" down the keks of those young lads around Piccadilly!

Give over Mancie-luv, was a regular myself round Piccadilly in the mid-80's -more "dirt" this way if you really want to start diggin'...
Perhaps you are jealous because you weren't there and missed the action...

In fact I am still on the run though Interpol occasionally knocks on the door ...I do still look so innocent -thank goodness!

Re: Hyndburn Foreign Policy II
Have a heart you lot - once we send somebody to represent us in Parliament their party then expect them to join committees and debate on various other matters than what's best (in his view) for Hyndburn.
Now that Burma has stopped isolating itself from the world and is holding out the begging bowl we in the west need something in return. If we don't want another massive influx of asylum seekers, I think we need to try to alleviate the tribal situation. I once saw a documentary a few years back where a journalist had secretly sailed down a Burmese river and had come across tribal villagers deep in the forest who were hiding from the Burmese army who were doing a bit of ethnic cleansing.
As for the Palestinian situation - Blair has always said it's their own fault. I think our MP was right to publish the other side of the coin.

Rather difficult, when our M.P. has already used this forum to prove himself a hypocrite.
The criticism, about what international causes he chooses to support, will cease when he uses his position to highlight the many, and ever increasing, human rights abuses which are at this minute being carried out in other places in the world, like Pakistan.
He stops the bias.
We stop the criticism.

Re: Hyndburn Foreign Policy II
It's amazing, well not really, it's shameful, the number of Labour politicans who represent a sizable ethnic minority population, and who have the balls to speak the truth, only when they've announced their retirement, and aren't up for re-election.

Aye...but don't forget Britcliffe. He kicked this one off with his support for those who in turn support Kashmiri terrorism. I just wonder if a prerequisite for a Hyndburn elected representative is the absence of moral scruples and personal bankruptcy of political principle. Surely there must be one or two good 'uns amongst 'em?

Aha - thanks for the explanation.... I obviously missed his post(s). As for the Pakistani cleric who explained and then illustrated how to rid the country of Christians; I have plenty to say........ but it's best that I don't.

Oh I haven't forgotten.
Nor have I forgotten the list of those thanked, the visiting propagandists gave, and which I posted.
Praise, and thanks were heaped on both the Conservative, and Labour leaders, who'd both supported the anti-Indian lobby group's visit to council chambers.
