Are UKCaving cavers representative of the population politically?

[royfellows]

the way this is going it'll probably end up as a caving thread!


EDIT
or a lamp thread

You've already diverted it to a brushwood killing thread Roy 

 

[royfellows]

Its all my fault. Aren't I a nuisance.

 

[ChrisJC]

The results are unsurprising to me. I remember the hullabaloo about the Daily Mail and requests to ban people posting links to articles within it!

But the Daily Wail is a crock of sh*t....

As far as I can tell all you're doing is keeping it in the recent posts...

It is amusing to see someone throw their toys out of the pram at what appears to be the absence of discussion. I'm half minded to engage in discussion out of spite 

Still good to know what I should post on lamp, mine access and NAMHO threads...

There?s a reason it?s referred to as the Daily Fail....

 

[mikem]

Not spite, just boredom.

I can't help but notice that cavers have managed to draw not one but two phalluses (phalli?) in the results bar chart...

Monster Raving Loony?

Where I am it would be nice to have such a progressive organisation standing for election.  Seems there is a choice of:

a) The telling complete porkies party
b) The un-electable shambles party
c) The outrageously fibbing party
d) The two-faced insincere party
e) The feed the electorate bulls**t party

decisions, decisions....

misfortune of living in a safe seat so tactical voting is as effective as spoiling your ballot paper in this constituency

Safe seat, your LUCky!!! Where I have the pleasure of voting has probably been conservative since elections were invented.

AR I raise your 10k Conservative majority with a 14k majority  :blink:

PAH --- raise you 14k to 19,985.

Could be interesting for access as it the big caving area

This reminded me of a 4 against one attack at a martial arts club

1 Attacked with a punch to my head
2 Attached with a kick to my stomach
3 Attacked with a round kick to my head
4 Attached with a side kick to my stomach

If these guys were election candidates, which should I vote for?

It sounds like a lot of people won't want to vote on this, I wonder if it will be election with the fewest votes in history. Perhaps another poll....

I'm reminded of a Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers episode where Phineas insisted on exercising his democratic right while Freddy and Franklin waited outside in the car. When he eventually emerged from the polling station, they asked him "What took you so long?" and he replied "Sorry guys, I was having trouble finding a candidate who didn't make me want to throw up".

I like the way that this thread has gone, I feared for the worst and got the best.

19,985 I raise you 23,484

I raise you the NHS

Who of you hasnt used it from your birth until now?
Which of you hasnt needed it for your family?
Which of you can afford US style health insurance of medical bills?

Make no mistake, this should be the mater of concern. Use your hard one right to vote

Perhaps when you have to pay huge premiums for rescue insurance - bigger than for alpine trips - you might find it worth talking about then

Politics is in everything and everywhere. Bury your head at your peril.

I knew it

Think I might visit a garden centre this weekend.  The wild strawberries are in a trough on the ground and need raising up in case of frost.  Probably the off season for planting more herbs though.
I suppose window boxes or small window sill planters or pots with mini-veg (radish, chantennay carrots, or herbs) could be useful for garden limited environments.
I've also taken the precaution of putting a lump of black tourmaline by the front door to ward off evil spirits (aka politicians).
