Lucky boy! You have two papers to spoil. Enjoy.

I doubt I'll be actually spoiling either this time as I / we have

That's mainly thanks to the likes of you and the other fanatical

Glad to be of service. Now, to sort out that brain thing of yours.


If the likes of you want Brexit it's going to be 100% it's not a good

Have you had your poll cards? They say if you have postal vote and

Yes we had our poll cards a while ago. We then applied for a postal
vote. If the ballot paper is delivered by 6 Dec, we'll be fine.

I'd check that your application has been succesful, recorded and when
they expect them to be actually delivered rather than wait until the
deadline. Remember if you have fallen off the postal vote list it'll
take a day or three to get to you.

My council sends out a letter telling me that I have a postal vote and
when to expect the ballot paper to drop through my letter box. They also
state that if the ballot paper is not received by a certain date to
contact them. From memory, this date was at least a week before the
polling date - presumably to allow time for a second ballot paper to be
sent out.

My ballot paper arrived at the beginning of this week (week ending
30/11/19).

That isn;t how voting works, you don't vote to cancel another person vote, that isn't on any ballot paper.

Does she happen to know what job(s) she will be doing, as a friend of mine was employered as a counter so didn't have to arrive until after about 9pm but before 10pm. He didn't want to be a clerk who had to be there by about 6am.
Then there are runners who basically cart the voting boxes about.
But this was about 10-15 years ago.
he was also told not to wear anything that could be seen as a party colour, even though he wasn't going to be seen by the voting public.

almost nobody votes for personalities

they vote for the party

Obviously with someone as high profile as Davey there is scope for him to

The right thing is sustainable population. That doesn't mean enough food
to feed the pestilence, it means a population that does not adversely
affect the balance.

The right thing to do is cull several billion, but that is deemed
extreme. Natural calamities will just have to do, or a new top level

we can reduce our carbon footprint to zero and it's going to make ****

Why would that stop you doing the right thing?

Because 1% wont charge a thing, even if CO2 does matter.

You lot are already the right thing with the new nuke.

The right thing is sustainable population. That doesn't mean enough food
to feed the pestilence, it means a population that does not adversely
affect the balance.

All modern first world countrys and most second world country
arent even self replacing now if you take out immigration.

The TOTAL of India and China, by far the two most
populous countrys now isnt self replacing either now.

The right thing to do is cull several billion,

Bull****.

but that is deemed extreme.

Corse its extreme. You are however free to cull yourself.

Natural calamities will just have to do,

They never do anymore. Even full world wars dont.

or a new top level predator might be cool.

Humans predate fare more humans than anything else does.

Aye depending on how you define "polling station" I wonder how many
have loo within that boundary.

I think it's taken as the whole site.

Only because no one wants to decide who would be culled or if you
just let people die, who should be allowed to have children.

Natures working on it. Won't be some thing with pointy teeth that
leaps out and eats you but something we can't see, like a bacteria or
virus (or group of).

Logic dictates that western civilisation needs to go. The rest will
collapse quite rapidly thereafter.

or if you just let people die, who should be allowed to have children.

While we're talking about who should be allowed children, why do we
spend so much money on IVF and such?

Yeah, I know the bacteria/virus thing is most likely. The pointy teeth
things would be more entertaining though.
