I'm sorry but how can anyone vote for someone who only gave up their non dom status during the election campaign? How does someone like that contribute to Britain? He only became a tax payer because of the election. To me, that is a scum person.

And whilst he roundly won his seat, why did he have that gurning hooray behind him during the announcements? That, I have to say, was one of my favourite moments of the election, watching that berk's face. Could you get any more Tory?

no i'm sorry i looked at it again myself and you're quiet right, it is his looks, he really does look unpleasant in pink. mea culpa.

merryberry · 08/05/2010 17:41

it's not his looks. it's his demeanour. have you not seen it?

Oh yes, he won. Great stuff.

Suck it up? How nice.

As for handsome - really not my cup of tea. He's a bit smarmy looking for my taste. But each to their own. Some like the smarm look.

reads threads properly, David Newman, his agent. Thank you

falls back down to the floor to carry on laughing at notion that good looks matter.

HerHonesty · 08/05/2010 17:24

so if he's so green why didnt he stand for the green party. oh. let me think. because he actually cares more about protecting his vast amounts of cash than the environment. he's two faced shallow twat.

Ha ha ha . I was shouting to the tv about that as well!

crystal - as I said he wasn't so bad, I was 17 when we started dating and we only saw each other in the holidays. I am not super keen on staying in touch with previous partners.

crystal123 · 08/05/2010 11:57

Taffeta. Why did you date 'Rupert' for five years? and them wish him in Australia? sounds daft to me.

crystal123 · 08/05/2010 11:54

ZAC, Very nice.

taffetacat · 08/05/2010 11:54

merryberry - lol I saw that. I love Paxo. Zac stuttered something about it not being about the money. Yeah right. Tell that to the parties when they have to campaign again this year.

merryberry · 08/05/2010 11:48

there was a wonderful moment, yesterday i think, when jeremy paxman opened a zac goldsmith interview with 'well, how much money DID you spend on your campaign then?' and the look on zac's face as he floundered was priceless

expatinscotland · 08/05/2010 11:26

OMG, that is the real Rupert! The body of a domestic cat; the roar of a lion.

Gag to the other one.

taffetacat · 08/05/2010 11:22

ah Mac sounds great. Good name.

one to make you smile

one to make you vom

expatinscotland · 08/05/2010 11:13

We're currently waiting for a male kitten. He's just 4 weeks from weaning and then getting neutered.

He's a grey and white cat, though, with a pattern like a mackerel.

So he's going to be Mac. The mackerel cat!

I hope Pepsi, our 10-year-old (well, she's at least 10, she was dumped on us and the former owners said she was 2 and that was 8 years ago) black and white (I'm American British and we always call black and whites 'tuxedo' cats) female, likes him!

taffetacat · 08/05/2010 11:11

Oooh expat he sounds gorgeous, we have just got a new kitten so am especially cat obsessed at the mo.

My Rupert wasn't so bad, just a bit weak and insipid. Your tom sounds much better.

expatinscotland · 08/05/2010 11:08

Bet my Rupert was far lovelier, taffeta, a massive ginger tom with green eyes and the purr of a lion.

taffetacat · 08/05/2010 11:05

I dated a Rupert for 5 and a half years. He lives in Australia now. Nearly far enough away.

expatinscotland · 08/05/2010 11:02

I once had a cat called Rupert. He was lovely! Had him for 13 years.

He's dead now.

taffetacat · 08/05/2010 11:01

turns out the twunt next to him is his local agent Rupert Fuckwit David Newman- article in todays Guardian under heading "Etonians make a Commons comeback"
with tagline "Parliament shoudl represent society...it looks like it's becoming more exclusive"

if we tossed them out, the benches would probably be empty. We'd have to start again and get some real members of the public to represent us. Unfortunately, that day will never come.

expatinscotland · 08/05/2010 10:44

I think they should have been tossed out, too.

Or any other sort of John Prescott or whoever.

Want to live your life like that, fine, it's not a crime to be a cheat, but that should preclude a person from having a role in making policy decisions on how the rest of us live.

claig · 08/05/2010 10:40

I agree with much of what you say. There are a lot of liars and cheats in the House.
