Can't help think this is off message (of thread) somewhat. Anyone else still up to watch the snooker? </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=3667#post-10616 Mon, 03 May 2010 23:01:02 +0000 MADJEZ 10616@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Used to be readily available on the South coast, but then so did Meow meow. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=3667#post-10614 Mon, 03 May 2010 22:25:57 +0000 thisisall1word 10614@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Photo updated for maximum lard action.

I suspect the Tory's know they will hold it and no-one else has it as a seat they will get anywhere near winning. No door stepping, no nothing. No People outside the tube or posters anywhere. No front garden picket signs. Is this the anti-1997 election? </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=3667#post-10557 Mon, 03 May 2010 18:24:32 +0000 MADJEZ 10557@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Round these parts (massively safe Tory seat) I believe voting for the Labour is considered spoiling you ballot paper. There are so few labour voters they haven't even bothered to print any leaflets. We've had precisely 4 through the letterbox in a month (Con 2, Lib 1, UKIP 1). </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=3667#post-10555 Mon, 03 May 2010 18:17:04 +0000 Scroat 10555@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>There might just be room to write a haiku on the ballot paper... </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=3667#post-10549 Mon, 03 May 2010 17:56:59 +0000 MrChigleysAunt 10549@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>I suggest that this is no time for pith.
