I know I’m late but an article covering Clint eastwoods new film, New Deal, The Air Bus, and Grammer would be a challenge.

Too late, I suppose, to suggest a piece on the revelations concerning Lisa I’Anson’s sexual prowess, courtesy of Pop Bitch? Maybe next week.

I see that Boris went for the Airbus topic in the end.

http://opinion.telegraph.co.uk/opinion/main.jhtml?xml=/opinion/2005/01/20/do2002.xml

“Boeing, by contrast, was able for decades to be the dominant force in air passenger travel, without a cent of direct state subsidy.”

What about the billions in indirect tax breaks and massive US Government military contracts for cargo and tanker versions of all of Boeing’s civil airliners ?

This is one of the major factors for various World Trade Organisation disputes between the USA and the European Union.

I d go with the airbus, would make for an interesting article and so little has been written about it. Although grammar would be interesting, I could do with a lesson myself!

Airbus! Seems to be really terrible project, bad for the environment and bad for the economy. At least, Tony Blair said the exact opposite on the radio, and who trusts anything he says?

Boris for leader of the opposition!

How about posing a question about how local agencies are coming up with different numbers in treatment for drug misuse which are totally different to the the national treatment agency figures.

Vote for Boris as PM

What about the strain of radical feminism in the current government(and media)and the attitudes they create?
-Their un-willingness to press for equal parental rights
-Protect women only syndrome ie The 2003 Female genital Mutilation Act(boys as old as 10 are still being forcibly circumcised in the UK – only 1 in 40 are for medical reasons)
-The persistence of the gender blending agenda in our schools(courtesy of the Women and Equality Unit – Down with la difference!)
-Dare one mention the equal pay saga.. (how dare a man working full time earn more than a woman who is part time – Lets make more men part time!)
Meanwhile female journalists are happy to propogate chavinistic viewspoints towards men…god forbid any man who a questions a womens superiority (as the President of Harvard recently found).

How about the recurring obsession by certain groups to malign 4×4 vehicles and their drivers. What is the difference of being hit at 30mph by a bull-bar wielding mud-plugger or the late-again No.23 double decker or a pressed-for-time white van?

I’d go along with the airbus. I’m hoping that you’re going to worry about how long it’ll take all those people to board the bugger. Are you going to have to check in an extra 2 hours early to leave time to get on the thing? And can you imagine the scrum when it comes to getting your luggage back? It’ll be a nightmare..

Give me little planes any time..
