Mr President, the physical reality of Prime Minister Corbyn is beyond your range of apprehension. If you'll just put on these PINKOVISION glasses...

Are people still having issues with signing up as Labour supporters? I'm just asking because despite having to put my billing address rather than the one on the electoral roll through I've apparently been accepted with no issues - just got an email telling me when and how to vote (both addresses are in the same constituency).

BBC Ibiza Prom's - Royal Albert hall, Heritage Orchestra playing classic dance songs

Its things like this only the BBC can do, and the reason why it needs to be left alone.

John Whittingdale was singing the praises of this funnily enough.

I inadvertently agreed with John Whittingdale. I feel wrong.

Are Labour councils particularly corrupt compared to the rest? There's quite a comedy list right here for a single borough.

I suspect London councils are particularly corrupt (particularly with the urban regeneration/property stuff referenced) and London councils have a tendency to be Labour.

I suspect a random Polish or Nigerian or whatever dude wouldn't have much luck getting into the Gurkhas, though.

Glasgow Council is pretty awful, though that might be due to being run by one party for 35 years as much as being run by Labour.

Most Nepalis don't even qualify - they only recruit among Tamangs, Gurungs and Magars - about 20% of Nepal's population.

City councils are usually some mixture of corrupt and incompetent. City councils are usually Labour.

County councils have their fair share of passive aggressiveness, favoritism, good old boys club activity, etc., but it is of a different type and a different scale. It's hard to be as corrupt when you're in the middle of a field, although there's a good share of backroom dealing over land sales for houses. County councils tend to be a mix of conservative, liberal, and independents.

Well I just completely hosed up the one job interview I've managed to get in months of trying.

Back to graduate unemployment with me! :smithicide:

In response to extensive consultation with the people, I've decided to do things government style and just go ahead with what I was planning to do anyway.
