Boris (again)

[czechmate]

All numbers! Most curious.

Each department has a two digit number. For eg vienne is 86, haute vienne is 87. It is used for nearly everything. Then the next three numbers are the commune number.
It’s really simple

So BOJO won the first round big time... 1/3 of the vote is the figure I heard, but not checked.

There is a big tranche of the ERG nutters in his supporters now, so it will be really interetsing to see if there is an "Opposition" forming after the 2nd round.

I would doubt that Johnson can get a consensus in Parliament for a no deal brexit and it makes an Election even more likely. So, is Johnson a liability or an asset to the Conservative party in an Election? My guess is the former... He is a serial liar and has been caught out once to often I suspect for swing voters to trust him.

Loved hearing his pathetic, evasive and waffling response to Laura K's question yesterday on his taking of coke... Personally I'm not really bothered much on his use or recreational pharmaceuticals, but it'll go badly with the Gammons

I wonder if dear laura can be asked the same question .....

More logical! The first two numbers are the Departemente

Well whether she has or hasn't is a question for her to answer.... if anyone is bothered...

However, she is not standing for Prime Minister. Johnson is!

She may not be standing to become PM, but she could have considerable influence on all things political.
Therefore. She should not shirk away from being subject to personal scrutiny.

Set her on JRM. He despatched Cathy Newman pretty adeptly and with an animated smile on his face

Not really , you can't find anyone's address from the postcode alone ,

I can't from mine !

 

[bobk]

I can't from mine !

But you can be closish , our postcode covers 16 sq miles .

 

[JP1]

But you can be closish , our postcode covers 16 sq miles .

That's a big old area in Stafford for a comparatively urban area

To echo Juvenal… Quis custodiet Ipsos custodes…?

I detect a touch of sour grapes, as she asked a difficult question of The Chosen One??

I work on the basis that that both Labour and Tory Parties have grumbled about her in the past. To me that suggests a good and proper level of impartiality....

Be interesting to see how Emily Maitlis handles him in the TV debate...

Jeez, she's only a Journo albeit a good one. Yet you ascribe a level of power waaay beyond that even her critics could believe possible....!!

This is also a view expressed by those who worked with/for him when he was Mayor.

However, Hastings is a smart and astute man and I would hope that this sort of appraisal gets wider viewing...

 

[Danllan]

And to echo Homer Simpson, 'Hmmm. Coast guard?'

And to echo Homer 'Even a fool learns something once it hits him' and Simpson (Wallis) 'You can never be too rich or too thin'.

Jeez, she's only a Journo albeit a good one. Yet you ascribe a level of power waaay beyond that even her critics could believe possible....!!

If you genuinely believe that the media don't hold enormous power, you should pop over here to Wales because there is a really big bridge that I'd be interested in selling to you...
