To paraphrase Basil Fawlty - "It beats me but we're stuck with it, I suppose..."

Read an interesting article a while back where someone said that Chamberlain's "appeasement" of Hitler was the only sensible option at the time. Chamberlain knew that war was ultimately inevitable but his actions gave Britain the extra time to have the chance to rearm properly and prepare ...

I'd probably scrap the human race and start again from scratch!

Hard to see how suicide can be illegal!

It's certainly on the way to becoming a police state. Mind you, we have had a police state for years here in the UK.

I am in favour of full independence for England, Scotland and Wales. Not sure about what that would mean for Northern Ireland though, whether they would then become part of a united Ireland or not.

It's the owners which should be banned, not the dogs.

Blair was the best domestically but his foreign policy was a disaster.

This vile man should have been given the boot ages ago.

But even if he does he no doubt will have a job on Sky TV doing the same thing on an even bigger salary.

I think it would be best for the people of Austria and Hungary to decide.

Clegg will wipe the floor with Farage.

Whether you like the LIb Dem leader or not you have to admit he is good at debating, remember his performances in the run up to the 2010 General Election. Farage on the other hand has a habit of losing his temper in interviews.

This topic also makes you wonder why China was awarded the 2008 Summer Olympics considering their appalling human rights record!

Can't believe there are people who voted for the "Earth is the only planet with life" option.

125 billion galaxies, each containing trillions of stars. Whatever the odds are against life, the universe has got it covered!

No, it's a dwarf planet, too erratic to be classed a real one.

It's already here, just a lot more subtle than last time around.

I think Atlantis was actually Antarctica when it had a much warmer climate.

Let's keep him and send every politician and banker to Antarctica instead,

Thank God for Alex Jones... Shame he doesn't host that Sunday Politics show then the politicians might actually have to answer some searching questions instead of getting an easy ride from the BBC establishment every week!

Bear in mind it is the party members who have the vote on who becomes leader.

And these are the people who chose Iain Duncan Smith in 2001... A man who had as much chance of winning the next election as I had of winning an Olympic Gold medal.

I really like Matt Smith as the Doctor, he's got excellent range but he's being let down by some pretty bad stories. Good comment... I thought he was excellent in the first few stories he appeared in but things have gradually deteriorated since then. Last night for me was a disappointing episode, o...
