Oops, sorry son!

So, he's not the PM !!

[TheDevil]

I'm not sure that I said if he was, HereIAm. He's also not the King of England. Does it need to be mentioned?

[dannyk13]

Why did you mention it TD ?

[TheDevil]

Because don't you find a Hitler reference on morning television when referring to your son becoming Prime Minister a bit odd?

I'm not suggesting any sinister activity I just think it was a stupid thing to say.

[dannyk13]

Hardly news is it?

[Mamyalynne]

Priceless!

90% of what is posted in here is hardly News.

[hereIam]

Like I said, he's not the PM, so who cares !!! Only YOU, apparently ...

[TheDevil]

Dannyk13, no not "news worthy" but certainly "news".

Maybe Stanley was making a reference to antisemitism in the labour party, implying that it's good Corbyn didn't get in?

Sheer speculation.

[TheDevil]

"Only YOU, apparently ..."

Your presence on this thread indicates that you care. The fact you have such a strong opinion to voice on my thread that no one cares, implies that you care.

Enough of this nonsense HereIAm contribute or don't. This wasn't meant to be a negative thread or Tory slander. The reference was funny.

[Mamyalynne]

Gave me a laugh TD, in more ways than one.

[The Builder]

I know that Stanley Johnson isn't too keen on jazz.

I think he was referring to Adolphe Sax...

;o)

[TheDevil]

At the idea of Boris referring to Stanley as daddy? ;)

[TheDevil]

Try not to get yourself suspended HereIAm.

Lynne //90% of what is posted in here is hardly News.//
I was referring to the post having been placed in the News section.

[Mamyalynne]

I know you were and that's what made me laugh, still - it made a change from reading about TTT's poo in the fridge (also in the News topic) ;-)

[maggiebee]

Oh dear - clearly the apple didn't fall far from the tree.

[anotheoldgit]

It was a joke for goodness sake, or do some think that they would be proud to be Hitler's father?

[TheDevil]

Well Hitler was a successful man who influenced many. At the time I'm sure Hitlers father (i'm not sure on Hitler history, or if his dad was still alive etc..) was rather proud.
