The fella who's written the new Stieg Larsson 'Millenium'trilogy-extending book was interviewed by the afternoon lot on 5 Live last week, he also wrote 'I Am Zlatan Ibrahimovic' and whilst discussing his chats with Zlatan, he said 'fucking', the presenters reaction was classic, "ooooh! oh no you can't say that!"
What! I'm gonna have to get that now. I'm sure I recall reading there are 9 in the millennium Trilogy series and although 3 were complete, several more were part done and the others were just outlines. They were great books and although it felt like a natural ending on 3 I could certainly read more. |

An all expenses paid trip to Monaco, got employee of the year with 10 others early this year, been amazing out on a boat tomorrow but I think I need to buy a super yacht at some point! Drove a very nice Ferrari f430 earlier - some sketchy overtaking!

The people's flag is deepest red,
It shrouded oft our martyred dead,
And ere their limbs grew stiff and cold,
Their hearts' blood dyed its ev'ry fold.
Then raise the scarlet standard high.
Within its shade we'll live and die,
Though cowards flinch and traitors sneer,
We'll keep the red flag flying here.

That's Labour fucked, then.
The country has always rejected proper lefty leaders - he's the new Michael Foot.
Tories must be elated

I think Reg is looking forward to the mines re-opening.
Hopefully this will split the Labour party and the impending European vote will do likewise to the Tories.

Did anyone ever suggest there wasn't any coal?
Let the games begin I say, this could be fun to watch as I am not sure what Cameron will do when presented with someone who responds to a jibe like "he'll open up the borders" with, "yes, you are right" and proceeds to avoid making counter arguments while trying to not commit to anything. At least with Corbyn you seem to get what you see, even if half of it is nuts. Don't think he is electable under the current system, but maybe the time is right for someone like him to jolt the system.

Shame that. You can blame all the ex communists and socialists that run the EU forbiding us from digging it up to use because of carbon emmission tarrifs. Not stopping the chinese though who use it to power their economy so the west can by cheap goods putting our workforce out of jobs. |

As I popped into Asda earlier, I noticed a car parked in the drop-off bay with kids left inside. As I later learnt, the driver had gone to McDonald's to get his kids a few Happy Meals. I know this because I saw him leave said food & drink on top of his car as he drove off.
I laughed.

Don't think that's the case at all. A contrary view is JC could be the man that unlocks the younger generation vote. Could be a massive change in UK politics, at the very least it should make the political scene very interesting. Could have a Boris v Corbyn election next time around, that'd be brilliant. |

That's how I see it, it may ultimately move the labour party back left a bit more, maybe ultimately get Scotland more onside in time. In the meantime its going to be fun watching. The fact labour couldn't find an electable candidate to follow on from wet lettice Milliband shows what a mess they are in. |

Anyone who thinks Corbyn is unelectable, just look at what the SNP achieved with a similar message and policies. Also, he's been an elected MP for over 20 years.

But I think a lot of the SNP vote isn't for their policies per se, it's a pro independence, anti Union vote.
Some would accept almost any hare-brained policy if there was a chance of becoming independent.
