What are they on about today? ... lets see -- the scary muzzies are still under David Ts bed and the evil *trots* are about to take over the country."</b> It checked the referrer. If you go there without coming from HP the banner isn't there.

One would need the memory of a goldfish and a fairly unprincipled one at that to put aside Galloway's dodgy conduct, questionable allies and unsavoury activities. That would assume forgetting about Big Brother, where did the money go? More recently, forgetting about Galloway's disgraceful comments on the two young Gays hung to death at the end of a crane, by the Iranian dictatorship. Or Galloway's recent defence of the Iranian presidential election. All of that, not excluding Galloway's propaganda on behalf of PressTV, a holocaust denial pushing outfit masquerading as a TV channel. How easy would it be for the SWP and their allies to forget all that?

UR the 1. amie, why would my checking if it's alright with you be a 'whine'? I had a smile on my face when I wrote that.

A not unfriendly observation at how little sleep he has had gets: "That’s why I’m wide awake in the middle of the night. Just wanted to check with you, that’s Ok with you." It is no fun quarrelling with someone who responds in this whiny aggrieved tone. It releases the inner bully in me and the impulse to push his head down the toilet, something that never occurred to me in real life sibling squabbles.
