He thought the budget was right and OK and harrummphhed at David Cameron's superb response.

He's about 50, a professional engineer and has run some small businesses historically.

I know if I get into a debate with him we'll fall out because I get pretty emotive about Labour policies and performance. He asked about my views but I told him I'd rather not discuss politics - I don't want to fall out with him and need his money (though I didn't tell him that).

It's the first time for a while I've come across a Labour supporter and I've given up my large bed for him!! smash

Ooh, ooh!



Outside his bedroom. It might impact your income somewhat but at least you won't have to worry about the new 50% income tax.

I'm confused? Surely you mean ex-lodger and you've given up the patio for him? Can't think you'd mean anything else confused

So he has run his own buisness, he's a proffesional, so it follows he couldn't possibly be worthy of a valid opinion!

Do it the PH way and set fire to the house in the night.

He sounds like a total loser.

Pity him.

Gordon and Alistair certainly aren't big on financial acumen, but David C's such a lightweight tim nice but dim, and George Oz is such an obvious sleazeclown that no-one can pretend they'll make any serious difference to anything. Keep the lodger. He probably thinks you're a sad braindead tory but at least he's saving you from getting the house repo'd or getting it bought for nothing and rented back to you by an anarchist like me.

You should lie in wait behind his bedroom door and when he comes in; slip a straight-jacket on him. Have your wicked way with him and make him your bh. Every time he mentions any support for Ali and Gordo, rape him again. This is called aversion therapy. This plan doesn't work if he's a raving iron. wink

I think you should do the following:

1) Announce that there is a Rent Escalator and that his rent will rise £20 per week above the rate of inflation.

2) Ask him to 'lend you a tenner till payday' at every oppurtunity.

3) Take out loads of credit cards in his name. Max them out on useless junk.

4) Don't bother paying any bills.

5) When the bailiffs turn up, announce that there is a £5000 deficit in the rent/mortgage budget and he will have to cough up or you will both be homeless with immediate effect.

That'll learn him!

Ensure his name isn't on the electoral register (maybe put him on the sex offenders register instead).

6) Grow a badger's face and go on TV to tell him that no matter how bad his situation is this is a global problem and things will be alright in a years time because they just will.

Your a laugh a minute - Jocko & Co have near killed UK PLC but you just can't bear a Tory Govt. Why don't you say what you really mean.

As for Braindead, I guess I'll think that's someone else.
