    Politics aside, why is the man just so damned unlikable? Even seeing a photo of him gives me the creeps.

    Glad I'm not the only one. As for running candidates in every constituency, that was always a pipe-dream. He knows it, Boris knows it. You don't pull credible MP material out of a hat, like rabbits. Boris didn't bite on his rather obvious bluff, so he makes the magnaminous gesture - it's not like he was forced to or anything.

  2. I haven't read the thread, so forgive me if I'm repeating a previous poster, but this was actually happening in the supermarket at The Mall Ngamwongwan last Thursday. Shoppers were actually bringing their own bags. I nearly fell over backwards in surprise. I've been there before on a temporary "no plastic bags" day and everyone, apart from me, was just ignoring it. People were treating it as pretty routine too, so it seems to be a permanent thing. Guess there is hope.

  3. Just open up channels for these low wage workers to come to the UK legitimately, like, they're coming anyway. Incidently, my father was recruited in Ireland to work in the British mines, married an English gal, and by all accounts his offspring are contributing to The National Wealth pretty substantially. I'm the black sheep, upped sticks and f#@ked off to Thailand. Still, when I was in the UK I did my bit. I've had a varied career and all the immigrants I've met were adding value.

  4. Well, I don't know about Mr. Stephen, but when I wake up the next morning and, only then, realise I've forgot my bag, the reason is usually pretty obvious. Funny story - I was traveling home fron London and the train kept stopping/starting. Some problem I forget what. Anyway, I took advantage of one of the stops to have a quick fag. Wouldn't you know it, without warning the doors closed and off goes the train, together with my case file for the case I had to present the next morning. Managed to wing it and retrieved the case file eventually. Hope my former bosses aren't reading this. Ah, the good old days.
