Although how many books, feature films and statues have their been of Howe? One will be remembered for centuries to come, and Howe won't.

I am not a fan of TV quiz shows, but, I do tend to watch "Pointless" (if only to avoid the Covid Update). I am always amazed at the extremely low level of knowledge in questions relating to Politicians (even those who are current or quite recent). It would appear that the fervent interest in Politics shown in some sections of this forum, is not shared by the population at large.

Although the thread seems to be going in a different direction, but based on the title I was going to propose Nigel Farage vs Mike Tyson

Sitrep. Surprisingly close. Hindsight has drawn withing thumping distance of Boris, who is about to shout, "Look, the Good Year blimp!" and then punch Hindsight in the spuds while he's distracted. Exciting stuff.

Johnson will come steaming out in Round One, all the usual mouth and no trousers. Keir will forensically take the early bluster and then simply let mop head blow before delivering a series of short sharp left jabs to win by a clear KO.

 

[LCpl Boiled Egg]

Johnson would write two Telegraph columns about the fight, the one with the correct result would get published and he'd get paid/win either way. But I'll never vote for him even in a CC poll.

You watch Pointless? The "By What Method Should the Galentless and Insincere Alexander Amrstrong be Executed" thread will be coming soon.

Janet street Porter vs. Katie Price. As supporting act.

The first pay per view boxing match that I'd pay for. 😄

Just seen a teaser for an article in the Times. It is behind a paywall so can't read it all. However the gist seems to be that some Tories are suggesting that Boris has been beaten up by Whittey and now has to do what he Whittey tells him to do. Obviously tougher than he looks Whittey. Either that or some Tory MPs are a bunch of raving lunatics.

Starmer will wait until the fight has ended and Boris has gone home, then he'll deliver an almighty roundhouse punch to space Boris' face occupied several days previously.

The speech has been noted as the finest parliamentary speech of all time by Hansard. Just because there’s no books or films doesn’t mean that what he did should be dismissed.

 

[Drago]

Well, it's official.

Just as capitalism crushed communism, it seems Boris would crush old Hindsight. Doubtless Boris would be very evasive when questioned about it afterwards, and the next week Starmer would tell Boris he should have done it differently, but that's politicians for you.

Heseltine wielding the mace with a mad face, red mist moment.

Many of us will remember madame Thatcher until our last breath, just not for the same reasons Drago.
