#37. Re booing and shouting, you have to realise Cappy that they are honourable boos and shouts and not common garden ones. They may even have the odd “ Old Boy “ thrown in to show they are working for their money. Cheers Bruv. JS. PS or for those who want to emphasise they came from a working class background 250 years ago, “ you pinko basket”, JS

Re: spying
Two things surprised me when I first espied the mother of democracy on the television , the noise they make and the amount of the members absent, I would aim at reducing commons seats to 300 and lords seats the same

Re: spying
I have noticed that the abbott and the ira loving shadow chancellor have been missing PMQs for several weeks now, I always thought every MP had to be there, unless they are both upstairs in Lord John`s old office getting to know each other.

Re: spying
#46.. said that a long time ago Rob far too many sitting members in both houses and a drain on the country. And if remained in The EUR would have advocated of doing away altogether of both houses as would no longer be required, as all legislation would be decided in Brussels and those who want to remain in Europe should remember that, and not listen to promises to the contrary. Europe always has and always will have a reputation of breaking all treaty’s seals and whatever you want to call them. The motto should be stay in Europe and lose sovereignty and parliament, or leave and retain. JWS

#3... To add fuel to the fire simmering in the grate to make it worse could have put on a mention of the two characters in the Mad Magazine , Black Spy versus White Spy which no doubt has long ceased to be part of such magazine if it still exists, as will. Have gone the path of the black and white minstrels. Am surprised that the old draught or chess board has survived for so long. Maybe someone of pureness and light will see this and may remind them that they missed it out. Cheers JWS. Ps Vics post on Mr C being an idealist I nearly choked on, as my eyes are now that bad I read as being a dentist and was busy thanking God I only had one tooth left. JWS.
