I wonder if the above statement is true.

What is certainly true is that the powers that be in charge of bb do not give a hoot about the way you and I feel, as long as the money rolls in.

To paraphrase Cameron, "WWJD? What Would Jesus Do?"

Therefore I say unto you, " Withhold your funds, and do not vote, for to do so would be to encourage mammon and give rise to further iniquity."

"Give unto God that is God's and give unto Caesar that which is Caesars's, but verily avoid BT, O2 etc and do not give to ch4 that which you have laboured for, for their ears are like stony ground, most unreceptive, and their minds are like that of wee tree-climbing Zaccheus, sinner and tax-collexctor.

Absolutely. Those old sayings are often true.

Thank you very much "Naughtytomatoes".

It is always a pleasure to have a thought provoking and intellectual point of view and instruction, by such a profound thinker as your good self.

As for your instruction, I may indeed do so, but iffy (that means if and only if), OFF is considerably more pleasing to the eye than you might be.

Once again, many thanks for the tip

God is the biggest taker off all, but if Cameron is preaching in his name then I for one will try and bring him down.

I am not religious but for a person to use religion as one of his tools then Cameron should be ashamed.

Why is it that the public will not pick a worthy winner.

All you hear is hes nice looking or shes nice, it is very tedious.

The best are always kicked out by a boring British public.

The whole show has turned into a farce and if the only thing that there is to get out of it is money then so be it.

Some say that money is the root of all evil.

Cameron is the root of all evil.

When people realise that as a business venture that this is good then see which way they vote.

I get so annoyed with people who never want to get their feet wet and always err on the safe side.

Screw the bastards for everything and vote Cameron out, make money out of them.

If you cant see this then there is something wrong.

Practice what you preach....................................





And that is something that Cameron does not do.
He is belittling his religeon by brandishing the bible about, if he was devout as he thinks he is he would of done so in a discreet
manner.and therefore thought of in a better way.

Though his actions are certainly not christian, so whats the point of saying very unkind things about people one minute
reading the bible the next then saying bad things again so soon.
WHERE IS YOUR CONSCIENCE CAMERON

My dear "Naughtytomatoes",

For what it is worth, I accept your apology wholeheartedly, unreservedly and unconditionally.

I would have you know, that I was neither upset nor annoyed by your comment, it was just that I thought it a bit flippant, and thus worthy of a sarcastic retort.

Since nobody has died, no harm has been done, and at least you showed some independence of spirit in disagreeing with me, which, considering my occasionally off the wall opinions and usual anti-pc bent, is not unusal.

However, I do wish that you had not edited out your initial comment, as, in my opinion, this destroys the record and detracts from the forum content.

Have a nice day today, Wednesday

Having accidentally stumbled upon this excellent thread, I now realise that for the past nine months I have been wasting my time on the Digital Terrestrial forum. Many regulars on that forum would no doubt say the same.

Problem is I never watch BB.

Everyone assumes that Lisa's gonna go so even Lisa haters aren't gonna bother to vote. It wouldn't surprise me if this turns out to be one of the lowest vote counts ever.

You will NEVER get a better opp to get rid of Cam! The votes at the the final will be counted in millions - your votes then will be a piss in the ocean!

You know it makes sense!

I think I'll cut and paste my message on a number of relevant threads to get the point accross.
