It's been a fun ride...

OK, well if you're serious about it, then thanks, It's been enjoyable.


It's simply had its time, reached the end of the road, outlived its usefulness, & should be quietly dropped.

Glad you've enjoyed it...

Thank you, Colin! Although I haven't checked in regularly, I've always found it entertaining and insightful to read the quotes, background information, and responses that follow!

I disagree. There's plenty life in it still, but I understand if you want to drop it.
Glad you've enjoyed it...

I've been a Tory supporter for years, apart from a blip with Blair, but right now I don't think I could be more embarrassed and concerned. I thought Truss would do a good job, but she is completely screwing it up. I didn't think they should have got rid of Boris, despite all his faults, but who can they bring in now to clear up the mess?

It's not time for an election, but the Tories really need to shape up to stay in power.

Amazing. I posted my message this morning before she announced her resignation.

Are there 100 Conservative MPs who will back him & allow him back in the running ?

After a short break [of nearly a year] the 'Quote of the Day' thread is back due to Phoenix members' demands [cough] !

Was Edith thinking of religious zealots ?
