Terrorists & Topical Terrorist Targets
themaninblack replied to maryportfuncity's topic in DeathList Forum
This makes things rather complicated from a DDP points awarding point of view. Is Shekau really dead or just his imposters? Has he been dead for years, as claimed or is he still alive? -

If the SNP carry that percentage of the vote into the Westminster election that could seriously hamper Labour's chances of forming a majority which could be the crowning irony, since they were shitting themselves silly over losing Scotland and all those crucial MPs. England and Scotland have had one last bunk up for old times sake. In nine months time the union could give birth to yet more trouble...

Someone though needs to tell him that you can't treat it by consuming crack cocaine.

I'm thinking she's quite nice too. Actually I think she might have been a better president! -
One of many, many bassists for the band and a veteran of the Mersey scene in the 60s. Great bassline on 'Love is the Drug'. RIP...

Still, they wrote the last Doctor Who story to scare me ('Terror of the Vervoids' or Trial of a Time Lord pts 9-12) when I was 10, so mucho respecto to Jane Baker... Talking of which, Horror channel are repeating 'The Incredible Hulk' series from the late 70s. Still gives me the willies when Bill Bixby changes!

I always quite liked Douglas. I did think that he might be reasonably well positioned if (when) Ed gets the boot. If Scotland break away that won't happen. Some people have tried to link David Cameron's job to the outcome of the referenndum but will Alex Salmond step down as First Minister if there is a No vote? He just strikes me as largely incompetent. Luckily it is easily disguised given that he is in Ed Miliband's cabinet. If Miliband goes get the boot, I'd prefer Balls to take over. Not least because it would make PMQ's infinitely more entertaining. Salmond probably will quit in the result of a No vote. He has resigned due to political failure in the past. As well as that, it has been said that behind the scenes Sturgeon is doing her best impression of Gordon Brown when Blair was PM. If Scotland vote Yes, you won't have to worry about who's behind the despatch box at Westminster anymore, unless of you move down amongst us Sassenach's...

Well, they never forget, do they?

Looks like the media are treating the Yes vote as a potential disaster, they've got Mark Austin presenting the news from Edinburgh!

Oliver is a no no as well which is ironic considering its ubiquity among the plebs subjects.

I'm wondering if Labour/Lib Dem voters are coming around to the idea that an Independent Scotland would ensure at least one part of the British Isles is permanently centre-left and the Tories will never bother them again...

Your headline & caption for Attenborough really made me laugh. And I forgot he helped launched Channel 4, that's a lot more than BBC's shitty half-arsed TV report told me. (Obviously, muttered comments about whether that's a good thing or not will inevitably follow given what C4's been like over the last few years.) Also, I still think it's possible we could lose nearly half of the Drop Forty by the end. Just done a slight tweak of the page to show how many have gone so far...

Probably not but should be worth a few chuckles from them...
