  1. You haven't - because they're the same people from the same background! All you have done is attracted more people from that tiny percentile. Serious question - do you think Cameron, Clegg, Gove, Johnson, Mogg, et al. Need any more money? or couldn't have gained a career outside of politics? This is a job for them. I guarantee this - there are thousands of privately education 14 year olds who are thinking of a career in politics! And by and large they will get one.
  2. It is! Not his greatest fan - but that book is immense.
  3. I'm pretty certain - that Jacos Reese Mog, Boris Johnson, Tristan Hunt, Nick Klegg, David Cameron, Michael Gove are neither noble crusaders nor people who have excelled in business. They are not 'top league' yet enjoy incredible positions of power - and increased wages is irrelevant to them. They are to a man (and woman) privileged and entitled people to whom a career in politics is a right, and a career choice not an attempt to do some good or help people. The correlation between the percentage of those who have been to private schools and those in senior positions within government is so far out of kilter that it has to be by design and not by accident! Consider again the tangible links between private schools (small percentage of the population) and Oxbridge (majority of places) and the links between Oxbridge and the government and also the City and Finance (high percentage) - the whole system is for the few not the many. This wouldn't end by closing down Oxbridge - they'd just make Exeter and London the new Oxbridge. It is fundamentally about privilege and entitlement. Increasing the pay for politicians isn't going to change that one iota - it will simple enable more Oxbridge types to enjoy politics and gain more influence.
  4. I think it is a fair desire - that the person to best represent the interests of the electorate isn't motivated by the money on offer!
  5. Yeah and he ticks another box - and he knows his shit. So long as we leave the 'Sir' bollocks out of every introduction!
  6. I think it may be a female - particularly in the current climate. Paid far less obviously.
  7. Well you don't have to worry about Brendan anymore! Steve Cram was funny with Michael Johnson, as he basically ended up agreeing with Johnson. As I think most of us would!
  8. Found it strange Cram commenting upon the tactics when he coaches Laura Weightman!
  9. Exactly - already you have discounted Academics, teachers, social workers, etc. They are paid enough - we aren't trying to attract people from business, as they are not the 'best'.
  10. Shit films are shit films, I think a genuine shit film is something like Independence Day that has delusions of grandeur but is incredibly shit, and poorly scripted, possibly the worst of that type that I have seen for a while (San Andreas runs it close). Titanic is the shittiest film I can remember - 3 hours on the back of a sly, lying manipulative old bitch who should have been fucking wellied into the Ocean at the end. I prefer the smug, arty shit films. The Piano type wank - Neon Demon is possible the biggest pile of wank I watched since Only God Forgives (not if he's watched this fucking shit he won't!).
  11. Not sure why a UKIP advocate for free speech can be so against free market economics!
  12. Love the moral arguments about 'modern football' alongside comments about 'scousers murdering their own'! Yeah, terrible isn't it - the way modern football is.
  13. Anyone watch the programme on Silican Valley last night? Apple - what a bunch of cunts they are.
  14. It isn't pessimism, it is hysteria based on a fucking Twitter rumour!
  15. Jesus! He is staying behind with a niggle along side a few others! Haha one uneducated tweet and the flaps are open! Although I'm 100% sure that he will be sold and John will give it all to Linda!
  16. So we've gone from 'agreement between player and club, confident of a deal for £75m' to bids of £108! We shouldn't sell him. And for added incentive - just to piss the south coast bellends off even more by resisting any bids.
  17. Our kids should be seen as squad players at the moment - the only one who is potentially a first team player is TAA. The others - yes, squad players (so no £15m fillers) - but not first team players. We need at least one more for the first, two if we are being genuine. TAA will be a star and I think Kent and Solanke are better than what I thought they would be!
  18. Yep, I agree - certainly need one (we all know who), and probably another midfielder - although I think we can get away with that.
  19. I hate them! As I said yesterday - introduce him to the media on the latest liner we've 'stolen' from the pointless cunts!
  20. He clearly 'likes' you! It seems that you are missing the obvious conclusion here e.g. he wants to bum his mates Dad!
  21. You ignoring Robertson and Solanke, or do you mean as first team starters?
  22. Different days mate - clubs had all the cards before Bosman! Look at what we did to McManaman? I think all fans, for all clubs have a tendency to be hypocrites - Southampton didn't back off from VVD when he had just signed a contract with Celtic! I Personally don't think we have done anything wrong here - Southampton are being bitches and as per, we are too busy trying to be nice to cunts who don't want to know. Had United behaved exactly the same way - he'd be a United player by now.
