Place your bets

So who is willing to nail their flag to the mast and predict the date of the election

I'm sure BM will be happy to transfer the prize from the infinite bingo game to something that someone else actually has a chance of winning  whistle:

Correct, now who to vote for, those that have been ruining the country for the last fourteen or so years or the others that'll ruin it for the next fourteen?

Gordon is shite, Nulabor are shite, but David Hugh Grant Cameron has yet to even call them on being shite!

Damm! I was going to say it must have been well past it's best before date.

Anyway,

3rd June.

Because Gordon's going to hang on for as long as possible.

It's just been announced that the late May Bank Holiday has been moved to June 3rd and the 4th has been added to celebrate the Queen's diamond jubilee or summat...
