My guess is that it's all knees, hips and elbows; she's prone to making occasional jerky movements that put you right off your stroke; there's an awful lot of high-pitched moaning and when she climaxes she goes totally spastic, losing all motor control and could easily have your eye out if you're not careful.

Poor woman. If she refuses to join in the world's press runs with 'Killjoy Evil British PM Breaks Poor African Childrens' Hearts', and if she gives it a go the world mocks her awkwardness.

I'd love to see your moves. Especially while you're being filmed by 50 cameras and you know 50 million people will be looking at you over their dinners.

No, I'm sorry. She needs to have some conception of the dignity of her office. Jigging about awkwardly with picaninnies is simply not compatible with that dignity.

I have to agree with you. She was game, didn't take herself too seriously and I'm sure her moves were better than Gordon Brown's or John Major's.

As for dignity, she's hardly coming down a zipwire waving plastic Union Jacks is she?

Boris Johnson was only Mayor of London at the time - which is a joke office. She is Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, ffs!

Let's be honest about Popular Boris, he'd have been on his knees chomping the fella off if he thought it would play well to a needed demographic. Even as PM.

[Burney]

She strikes me as being on a bit of a hair trigger, h. I don't think you'd have to be especially talented to get her going. Even you might manage it. :thumbup:

This happened in 2012. He became Foreign Secretary in 2016 - more than four years later. As London Mayor, making a bit of an arse of himself in an attempt to promote the London Olympics is perfectly acceptable. Were he to have done it as FS, it would not have been acceptable.

[Sir C]

Would the great Mrs Thatcher (PBUH) have even contemplated dancing in a circumstance like this? Absolutely not. And that is the benchmark by which all Prime Ministers must judge themselves.

Nevertheless, the events were replayed repeatedly during his tenure as FS. You don't leave your past behind when you change jobs. Unfortunately :-/

peacetime Prime Minister


Isn't winning the Falklands War one of the reasons she's regarded as a great PM?

[Sir C]

That may as well have been 1873. An entirely different time. Consider what has occurred since - Clinton playing the saxophone, Obama dropping the mic, Major shagging Currie.

It's a different world.

No, I'm sorry. She needs to have some conception of the dignity of her office. Jigging about awkwardly with picaninnies is simply not compatible with that dignity.

One of the few instances where you can honestly say we would have been off if Bez was Prime Minister.

I have to admit, painful though it is, Sir C is right. She clearly wasnt comfortable doing it but she had a go. I feel for her, a little bit.

[Sir C]

Isn't winning the Falklands War one of the reasons she's regarded as a great PM?

Point of order: Falklands Conflict. War was never declared.

Yes, but the point is that he didn't do that while FS. She did do that while PM - which is quite unacceptable.

That is tremendously disrespectful to Mr Asquith. And every other Prime Minister.....

Unfortunately, that is typical of her weakness of character. She didn't want to do it, but lacked the resolution and fortitude to resist pressure and simply not do it.

[Peter]

Badly advised. She should never have been put in that position. A good press secretary would never allow that to happen.

No, but she did allow that revolting old reptile Alan Clark give her a fingering in the Cabinet Office.

Conflict, AFCE, Falklands Conflict. It wasn't a war

[Burney]

Badly advised. She should never have been put in that position. A good press secretary would never allow that to happen.

She shouldn't have needed to be advised not to make a cûnt of herself, p. She should have the intelligence and self-awareness to avoid it.

Anyway, this is a sideshow. Her biggest mistake while in Africa was in giving (albeit tentative) backing to SA's 'land reforms'. That's going to look very bad in a few years' time, when SA has gone the way of Zimbabwe.

Yes, because we stopped calling them wars by effectively permitting Prime Ministers to enter large scale military operations without requiring the monarch to declare war.

Right, but all we did was change the word. Like changing Minsitry of War to Ministry of Defence. Same people, same function, just a more pleasant name.,

[7sisters]

I’ll say this for him though. He’s infinitely more adaptable around third world leaders. Charms the socks off em’. There wouldnt be any Captain Bligh type awkwardness.
He’s not averse to throwing a few shapes either .

[Burney]

Right, but all we did was change the word. Like changing Minsitry of War to Ministry of Defence. Same people, same function, just a more pleasant name.,

I think it's also quite useful as a way of demeaning the opposition. You don't want the Argies imagining they're important enough for us to bother declaring war on them, do you?

[Ash]

It's all Newspeak and sophistry. See also the new words for naked imperialism: "humanitarian intervention". 'Coup d'état' becomes 'Colour revolution'. and so on.

I seem to remember when your chum Vlad illegally invaded Georgia in an act of naked imperialism, he called it 'Peace Enforcement'. :hehe:

Regime change :)

Climate change :)

Basically, they decided change was a good word and you cant be opposed to it.

Gender reassignment :(.... that is more complicated. Is that good or bad?

[Peter]

I think it's also quite useful as a way of demeaning the opposition. You don't want the Argies imagining they're important enough for us to bother declaring war on them, do you?

Fair point. However, it is interesting that you have decided that anything short of formal war constitutes peace time.....

Can one be involved in a large scale military conflict yet still consider it a period of peace? I'm not convinced.....

Anyway, Asquith did both. So **** you :) He turned out to be a bit **** at war but that is NOT the point....

[Peter]

Even the EU ended up blaming Georgia for that. Not imperialism.

The same EU you despise and are desperate to leave......

[Burney]

Even the EU ended up blaming Georgia for that. Not imperialism.

Riiiiight. So the Russians didn't effectively annex South Ossetia (which is internationally recognised as being part of another sovereign state) and doesn't still have thousands of troops stationed there to this day, no?

But I'm going to guess you're going to adjust your definition of imperialism so that it doesn't include this act.

[Burney]

Asquith was pìssed most of the time, p. And not in a good, Churchillian way, but in a bad, Charles Kennedy way.

Also, the 20th century has rather skewed our view of what constitute war and peace, I think. Anything short of total war pretty much feels like peace.

[Burney]

The same EU you despise and are desperate to leave......

Also the same EU whose largest member (among others) is almost wholly dependent on Russian gas supplies and which therefore tends to be a bit nervous of pìssing off Vlad.
