Gary Bushell definitely, not sure the other is a "proper" Charlton fan - having switched allegiances in the past.

Blimey. FatAddick wasn't wrong, was he? They are arguably three of the most embarrassing "celebrity" fans in existence.

With respect, I don't think it makes me an unrealistic, leftie pillock simply because I think Jim Davidson is an unfunny arse. It's not political at all. I just think he's an unfunny arse.

And replace them with who? Will Labour get us out of the shit? They are going to have to raise their game significantly to convince people to vote for them. I could never vote for them as they are now, and there is no way I would vote for the Tories, and it sounds like no-one will be voting for the Lib Dems.

OK so UKIP it is then. At least they'll stop all those mercenary foreign footballers coming over here and getting a game just because they have an EU passport (and that'll include Scotland soon).






oh..........!!!

Edna,I didn't have you in mind when I made my post,but I was just commenting on the overall 'mob rule' feeling I got when reading through the thread.
For what it is worth I reckon your posts are usually amongst the most balanced and sane on NSC!!.......

NSC is a wonderful forum, better than any other footie forum. However I wonder how it seems to be dominated by Leftie Tory bashers who think The Mail is the mouthpiece of the devil and Maggie Thatcher should have been drowned ar birth.
Like it or not Jim Davidson was hilarious when he broke on to the comedy scene despite the efforts to rewrite history because of his later misdemeanors. They were different times and people shouldn't be judged by 2013 standards for their 70's behaviour which was acceptable at the time.

But it isn't it. The majority of poster are slightly right of centre, I'd say conservative with a small c and there are more than your fair share of right wingers allowed to post their views.

What I find interesting is the common somewhat paranoid view that the world has gone PC mad and the Guardian readers have taken over. I put that down to their complete inability to accept a different viewpoint rather than it's volume.

No you shouldn't judge people by 1970s values as long as they aren't espousing the same views now.....

The Astral Planes, man...
Hollande wants companies that pay their employees more than €1m to pay 75% tax on those salaries. Now that is a real game changer and if he gets it France will be better off. I'd rather that than Gideon's 'mates rates' and let-offs.

The top rate of income tax under the Labour government was 40% right up until just before the last election. They put it up to 50% to try and look a bit socialist and get a few more votes.

Gideon has simply reduced it a bit as it wasn't generating any more income and to try and look a bit conservative.

This country is financially shafted and will remain so for generations to come, where do those who oppose public spending cuts think that the money comes from?

I swore I wouldn't get involved in political threads on here, so here is my 1st and last word on the matter. Most politicians are greedy, duplicitous *******s, irrespective of whatever party they represent. There are some genuinely good m.p's who care about their constituents, but they are in the minority, most are career politicians who don't give a stuff about anybody other than themselves, lining their own pockets and stabbing people in the back to get on the front benches of government or opposition. I'm old enough to just about remember the awful mess labour left is in, in the 70's. Thatcher came in and presided over boom bust economics, promising home ownership to the poorest so they could buy their own council house, and because of their disastrous economical policy the country went into one of many recessions and those people then lost their houses. North Sea oil revenue was wasted, industry was ground away, poll tax was introduced. their is a genuine argument that the Falklands was a very convenient war to get Maggy out of a political hole. Yet more boom bust policies, thatcher and lamonts Black Friday. then corruption and sleaze leading to a new dawn under labour, eeeerrrrr not quite. After a promising start, same old bollocks, economic miss management, leading us into a bogus war under George Bushes leadership, Blair clung onto power until he knew the shit would hit the fan and then passed the poison chalice into Brown who I would have felt sorry for if it wasn't for the fact that we were all in the shit economically. Then the expenses scandal came along and showed politicians up for the bunch of greedy *******s that they are. Now in recent years the coalition government continue another disastrous and out of touch regime, continuing on a disastrous economic policy, that even renowned economist,philosopher, and political critic Noam Chompsky said was historically doomed to failure.
My family were traditionally left leaning, but sadly, and I mean sadly I can't bring myself to vote for anybody now days. I used to wax lyrical about the importance of voting and exercising your right to choose our leaders. But all I feel about politicians and politics is disappointment and bitterness, we've all been let down by government after government and will always be so.
Rant over, off my soapbox and back to match day threads and silly and or lighthearted posts for me.

Quite.

People should lay off the unfunny, alcoholic, wife-beating, bigoted tax-dodger.

I have it on good authority that you forgot to add " Coke-Head "

Basic economic sense, no clairvoyancy skill required. Whilst I agree with you to an extent regarding current policy, there can be no doubt that this mess has been inherited by the conservatives and will take at least 25 years resolve.

You didn't respond re the NHS part of the original post presumably you agree?

Some could say that the Tories started it all in the late 70s and 80s, when we lurched from recession to recession. This 'mess' is nothing more than a manipulation of figures and journalistic rhetoric. The financial world is highly subjective, and is far too complicated for even our ruling parties to understand.
