Seems most of the gossiping may well be right @cromwell. Although, isn't that what a forum is suppose to be? A place to gossip about politics?

You would have thought after Pincher, the guy would have been more wise.

@BOycey and you'd have thought if you'd read the thread properly you'd recognise humour.

Makes a change Pappy. Don't you comment on everything usually?

Boycey that was a famous quote from "House of Cards." There is wide range of subjects I don't comment on because they are of no interest to me.  Sport, "reality" TV, soap operas, being just three.

You may think that I of course could not possibly comment.

If that is true, I would say we could have a prime suspect for the white powder found in Westminster Pappy, but I wouldn't want to be held up for gossiping on a forum.

It is now alleged he was both drunk and drugged

Not that I'm speculating about a gay Roman Catholic. Wouldn't dare.

Well apparently he's upset a spice girl as well but the whips office aren't commenting,considering all the connotations isn't that a name ripe for change.......whips that is not spice......but hang on spice has its own connotations too.

Ah, T00ts and Steve go gossiping, that's vastly different than your previous statement where you post twice that I am gossiping.

Oh blimey I apologise all round for gossiping about gossiping and injecting some humour in to it.

Really? And what point were you trying to make by stating things that weren't true?

Again, I expect you to take that back as I DIDN'T SPECULATE ON ANYTHING, I asked a question.
