Re: Meh. That wasn't meant to be condescending. I never expected the ou to enter that word, is all. Camilla Send a noteboard - 13/05/2010 11:03:42 PM
This is not America. This is Britain.

I'm beginning to think this is a European defense mechanism that you people just reflexively say. Where on earth have I made any comment relating to America? You realize that the United States government also frequently does not represent the population of the country? Hell, it represents it even less than the UK in some aspects; the Executive branch is all-or-nothing for one party.


Your comments are very obviously framed in an American frame. The non-partisan bit, for example.

Her 101 reasons to love our Tory government was even better. Legolas - 13/05/2010 12:42:39 PM 772 Views
That was excellent Camilla - 13/05/2010 12:48:34 PM 718 Views
That has been used a few times now snoopcester - 13/05/2010 01:27:50 PM 665 Views
Oh, well, it was new to me. Legolas - 13/05/2010 01:36:13 PM 702 Views
I do like one of the comments especially The Shrike - 13/05/2010 07:03:15 PM 648 Views
I agree. Legolas - 13/05/2010 07:11:40 PM 743 Views
What an even-handed, stereotype-free, and balanced piece of journalism. *NM* Tim - 13/05/2010 02:07:35 PM 356 Views
Yup. *NM* Camilla - 13/05/2010 02:09:35 PM 322 Views

I'm sorry I care about politics. Camilla - 13/05/2010 08:45:26 PM 781 Views
It's easy to complain. Actually doing something is rather more difficult. *NM* Ghavrel - 13/05/2010 10:17:47 PM 320 Views
What do you suggest I do, pray tell? *NM* Camilla - 13/05/2010 10:19:30 PM 303 Views
Learn how to live with people who disagree with you. Ghavrel - 13/05/2010 10:21:08 PM 678 Views
Oh, come on. Camilla - 13/05/2010 10:29:38 PM 792 Views
Do you really spell it "superiour" in Britain? That's wonderful. Ghavrel - 13/05/2010 10:37:21 PM 827 Views
Pretty please with sugar on top Camilla - 13/05/2010 10:50:48 PM 754 Views

Re: Yeah, um, that wasn't me. Camilla - 13/05/2010 11:11:04 PM 705 Views
I don't mind transference of anger, but let's keep my quotes accurate at least. Ghavrel - 13/05/2010 11:15:37 PM 726 Views
See, this is what I find offensive Camilla - 13/05/2010 11:21:28 PM 715 Views
Fair enough. It was unfair of me to use "learn." Ghavrel - 13/05/2010 11:30:34 PM 691 Views
Re: Fair enough. It was unfair of me to use "learn." Camilla - 13/05/2010 11:32:29 PM 701 Views
That's kind of my point, though. Ghavrel - 13/05/2010 11:33:51 PM 663 Views
Two posts in three days about a new Government in the country? snoopcester - 13/05/2010 11:18:06 PM 723 Views

Re: Sorry. But I can't bring myself to vote for 'that bloody party' Camilla - 13/05/2010 11:54:10 PM 682 Views
I hereby invite myself to the said discussion. *NM* Tim - 14/05/2010 12:13:34 PM 294 Views
I certainly wouldn't go that far. Nowhere near. *NM* Rebekah - 13/05/2010 11:43:20 PM 365 Views
On the comparison or on you people's spelling? *NM* Ghavrel - 14/05/2010 12:13:42 AM 319 Views

I dunno. It looks to me that's what Balwer was saying with his flogged horse comment. Ghavrel - 13/05/2010 11:18:30 PM 639 Views
I'm sorry you care more about your own political agenda than about trying to see a party in power The Shrike - 13/05/2010 11:44:32 PM 641 Views
You think Tories won't go proto-Orwellian on you? Camilla - 13/05/2010 11:46:45 PM 631 Views

A date "in a year's time" will be easy to remember. We have Scottish elections on 5 May 2011. Tim - 14/05/2010 12:12:26 PM 620 Views
Lets be honest Wibble - 14/05/2010 12:11:44 AM 756 Views
True fact. *NM* Rebekah - 14/05/2010 12:12:36 AM 338 Views
Very true, however Mark - 14/05/2010 03:54:21 PM 780 Views
Surely a good part of that is just humour, though? Legolas - 14/05/2010 12:25:21 AM 654 Views
Part of it, yes. Rebekah - 14/05/2010 08:43:12 AM 743 Views
