Politics and lions

Firstly politics: I am now convinced that Gordie is a Tory plant. Or that Cameron has some pretty dodgy polaroids of him as these are the only possible explanations for why Gordie hasnt fought back against a smear campaing that Charlie Whelan would have been proud of. For Cameron to claim the moral high ground, and for the Telegraph to attempt to smear Skinner (hardly ever claimed expenses) is like the Norweigans criticising any other european nation over whaling!

Iran: nice to see Mugabesque democracry alive and kicking in my favourite theocracy. The logic here is fantastic (David Cameron acting as a consultant?) as Ayatollah in charge said the election couldnt have been rigged as you cant rig an election of that many votes............err........may be he should read how Stalin and Napoleon did it..........

As to the Lions, gutted. Even with the problems in the tight still should have hammered them........well, beaten anyway. Monye carrying the ball in the wrong arm twice and Phillips knocking on a milimetre from the line...........gutted.

Lets hope no knee jerk panic over selection although the big worry is the skipper. Second tour in a row he has been poor. I am optimistic though but we could do with a back up goal kicker on the pitch.
