Labour aren't as bad as the Lib Dems. No political party is as good as gold. I guess he chose who he perceived as the best of a bad lot.

Having said that, I did hear that Melinda Messenger was just interviewed about something - she didn't know it was a Labour PPB until it was finished.

Makes you wonder, eh?

This whole advert made me sick! As for SAS, he's obviously trying to say 'keep Labour in because they make sure my core market of chavs are kept exactly where I want them, oh, and they're more friendly with Mr Murdock who keeps me in flash boats and beardtrims'.

What's all this SAS crap anyway? "Sir Alan Sugar", presumably?
Surely he is AMS (Alan M Sugar), hence "Alan M Sugar Trading", or Amstrad for short.

(Edit: Wanty - I'm not berating you. I heard talk of 'SAS' on the radio this morning too and it just wound me up a bit)

Anyone see Chris Evans championing Labour on TV the other day too?

As if there's not enough reasons to hate him already.

I first heard SAS on Jonathan Ross on Friday when he was saying that he was surprised Sugar had such a nice missus and not some East End brass like Pat Butcher...

Be careful... he's on the rise. In media circles he's apparently tipped to eventually replace Steve Wright on Radio 2...

Interesting that he is supposed to be a Labour supporter.

Anyone watching The Apprentice will probably recall his speech at the beginning of each episode. The bit I remember particularly is the "...I don't like liars..." bit.

He doesn't like liars...but he will support Blair? WTF!

Good. I only listen to Steve Wright for old time's sake. Now I can reach for the off switch with clear conscience.

Who gave 'Sir Alan' his knighthood anyway? A Conservative government no doubt.

If our 'knight of the realm' is suddenly going to be socialist, he should renounce his knighthood (because socialists don't believe in elitism or making money) and give his £700M away to poor people.

When you do that, Sir Alan, THEN you can vote Labour.

Maybe Mr Sugar has a passport application pending, or needs a visa for his nanny or help with completing a building society form, or guidance on which local comprehensive school his young relatives should attend, or has his eye on a flat in Bristol, or fancies champagne and canapés at Number 10 with other rich but deluded folk in awe of the mendacious grinning jackanape.

You might haved a point if New Labour were a socialist party.

As they are not, not a word of what you posted makes sense.

If you really believe they are a socialist party, you should not be allowed the vote.

Or be allowed to own a pair of scissors.

Hmmm, Old Labour were a Socialist party and there are still plenty of Old Labour MPs who would like to see New Labour disappear.
Personally, I think Labour is communism by another name.
There was a sign outside my work place that says - 'Your Government is in control - go back to sleep'
Just about sums up this interfering, politically correct Nanny stte government we've got in control.
