OT, I’ve gotten used to pop stars younger than me, footballers younger than me, and doctors younger than me. (Than I?) But intelligent blog commenters I’ve been reading for half a decade? Younger than I?

” in Wales. Though there were quite a few village idiots about”

Weekend cottage owners, probably from Buckinghamshire.

Hear hear Mr Standing.

Please keep up the good work of exposing the hidden agendas of two otherwise completely mainstream parties that were are so close to a landslide victory.

Its reassuring to know that someone takes the trouble to provide us poor hysterical dears with a list of permissable vs beyond the pale parties, without in any way endorsing the permmissable parties.

He provides a necessary service for those of us who may forget to take our medication on polling day.

I hope he can also provide a similar simple detection system for the openly mad or bad parties for those of us who are also prone to forget our spectacles.

Perhaps a simple check of party name length in reference to the space they take up alongside a horizontally placed thumb would work?

Oh dear but then whose thumb would be the standard against which to measure the parties?

Oh I get so confused, but I bet Mr Standing can tell us because he has an objective thumb, thats for sure.

A friend of mine came back from Wales with a proud selection of dragon photos. Maybe she is a demoness – and I’m going to have coffee with her this morning!

One of the happiest times in my life was a holiday spent in Wales. Though there were quite a few village idiots about, due, apparently to a great deal of inter-family marriages in that particular community.

“(as I think freedom of movement and freedom to migrate whenever one wishes to be fundamentally A Good Thing)”

I guess I’m crashing at Venichka’s house for a few weeks next time I’m in the region.

So Graham, what is the plan for you raciest, leftist bastards after you lose on a massive scale?

If you mean when the party I’m not a member of loses -to go down the pub probably.

Let me guess, it was all the fault of the Jewish Media and the Jewish Bankers.

Don’t you realise that I am in their pay already?

The only way to end the civil strife is to get rid of them and then there will be social justice and you socialists can form a red/geen alliance with the Muslims. Some sort of super-RESPECT?

You have the beginnings of a good novel there I’ll give you that but it has absolutely no connection with anything that I have ever said or believed lol!

Jon D –

A lot of threads have made me angry on this site but nothing quite as much as that reference you give!

Who is the annoyingly named “Josh” Parson to give Brazil the least points at 35 compared to Somalia original effort (a star on a colour field! – that’s IRONY folks) 86 or something.

Grrrrrr!!!!!!

Brazil’s flag is brilliant in all sorts of ways – colour, angles, universality, sloganising. Ordem and progreso!

You’ll be delighted to know some bloke has graded the flags of the world on artistic merit and originality like a sarky art teacher http://www.otago.ac.nz/philosophy/Staff/JoshParsons/flags/alpha.html
What’s that on Bhutan’s flag btw. And can anyone see St whatsit and the grendines flag without thinking of wolverhampton wanderers?

Someone should remind Mr Hargreaves about what Revelation 12:3 actually says “Then another sign appeared in the sky: a huge red dragon with seven heads, ten horns, and seven royal crowns on its heads.” Welsh or not, that would make for a bloody odd-looking flag, if you ask me.
