Can the Lib Dems hold/fight back in the constituencies they got mullered in at the general election.
Even Eastleigh looks safe.
Consumers are more important than producers. When will NHS bods realise this?
That's why Ron Paul didn't make it through in 2012.
Goodnight.

My interest coverage and debt to equity ratios are fantastic. Just turning over every cushion to find the equity cheque
Is where the cathedral of cricket is.

This is a very nice and detailed map of all the support that candidates get in each county in the USA.
This is far more interesting:
Europe Elects @EuropeElects Feb 10
Germany, INSA poll:
If parties would stand against each other:
CDU-EPP: 26%
CSU-EPP: 14%
Now:
CDU: 26%
CSU: 7%
The CDU-CSU would gain more votes and seats if they where separate parties, they wouldn't need the SPD.
Restarting the router sometimes works, but not every time.
Worth talking to them, or just changing provider?
He ain't winning 8 states outright.
But when nobody can afford the house/flat that they live in, then there is only one way the market will head...
I have to say I don't really like any service that imposes one of their routers with their tweaked firmware on you e.g. BT and Virgin. Obviously you can purchase your own and set it up, but then of course if you ever experience any problems the customer service people do their nut.
More seriously, congratulations Charles and I hope all goes smoothly with the purchase. But I still think that if somebody of your financial status is struggling to scrape together the necessary deposit, regulations or no it's a sign there's something about to go badly wrong somewhere.
There's been some good work enumerating some of the important issues;
- lack of critical mass to create and sustain centres of expertise.
- unattractive for ambitious professionals compared to NHS England.
- highly reliant on foreign doctors
- large areas of low population density.
- aging workforce.
And so on and so forth. It's not _all_ Labour's fault. Some of it just comes with the territory. Offered a choice between Bristol and Newport, I know where I'd want to work

My advice from personal experience would be to just take the hit and get on with it (as I had to in the end) but I suppose it's worth exploring other options first if there's a penalty involved.
I'm not a fan of the provided routers either - at the office we have an ages old EE contract (so old we took it out with freeserve) with our own router that works better than most.
Hilariously, the last time we had a problem (turned out to be a fried router) I had a great chat with a customer service operative who was aghast at the hardware cost of my privately sourced Netgear router. He said it would cost a certain amount of Rupees to purchase that where he was; converted it was a fraction of the cost!
PS And in my new (i.e. upgraded not actually new - am not that daft) and fun car.
My cousins have lent me the bridging finance, but I think their definite of "mates rates" is different to mine!
I am not with them now, so I don't know what sort of service they offer these days. Other than the router dropout issue (which I just got used to and wrote a simple script to do it for me), I don't remember ever experiencing serious "peak time" issues and at the time I was hammering my connection pretty much around the clock.
With that, congratulations again and good night.

Lots of fun I hope.
I'm going to have the 'sort this out within a week or we're going to BT' chat with them tomorrow!
Clem would have had 4 words for him.
Hes not that bad.
If he were leader of the party I'd still vote Tory. But with a peg on my nose.
Farage is talking about British Jobs for British Workers on the front page of tomorrow's Express
Good shourt on the forums though. Ta!
My Talktalk ADSL Huwai router died. Bought a Netgear. Works fine
My BT VDSL Home Hub was just crap. Bought a different Netgear. No issue.

These passages particularly struck me as hitting home:
"Clinton’s campaign feels like it’s all about her — her résumé, her mettle, her 25 years of suffering through the indignities of public service. “I’m with her” is the slogan for a campaign that seems to signify nothing beyond the joyless accretion of personal loyalties."
"This was the shock wave of 2008 finally rising to the surface of our fractured politics. What Sanders and Donald Trump embody, each in his own strident way, is the disgust that’s been building for the eight years since Lehman Brothers collapsed and took the markets with it — eight years in which the wealthy and their wholly owned political parties recovered fabulously while everyone else stagnated."
"But if ... Clinton tries to ... make the case for a more pragmatic approach [based on who is best placed to operate in the system so reviled by the electorate - my addition], she’s seen as an ideological apostate, unwilling to take on the system. And so her choice is to be either a less genuine candidate than Sanders or a less progressive one — or some days both."
"Clinton has run a campaign that’s all about her bona fides, and nobody’s swooning. If she’s still defending her Wall Street speeches and whining about the vast right-wing conspiracy a few weeks from now, the nomination could very well slip away from her, again."

I'd be surprised if he made it to 4th or 5th in the MPs contest.
That is the past.
Fox is not popular amongst the parliamentary Party.

What is not to like.
The revelation came as top Tories shared a stage with Nigel Farage for the first time during the “Brexit” campaign — turning their joint fire on David Cameron.
Senior Eurosceptic Tory backbencher Steve Baker told the crowd: “A Eurosceptic member of the government and I had a drink last night and he told me very plainly that it was his clear understanding that the government expected having come back with this deal, that they would show it to the public, get a round of applause and be a 20-30 points ahead for remain.”
