[kj] Off US Election / Georgia / Israel Topic: Peel Sessions CD

[pssyche23]

Not sure Peter ... but I'm not going to worry too much ... I bought a nice pair of khaki Chinos from Primark on Saturday for £5 but I don't feel guilty at all ... my IT job may go to the Asian subcontinent in the next couple of years ... I'm more f*ck*d off that Chiltern Railways have given a 73% discount to Tory party affiliated members travelling to their party conference at the NEC ... that's a f*ck*ng outrage !

  "he had a cheap oil deal with Hugo Chavez" 
   
   
     I ve always wondered about that deal . Venezuela is an impoverished Country with many of its people living in poverty, yet we purchase  cheap oil from them . London Transport  received cheap oil and with the savings they gave wealthy people half price fares . 
     Why didn't Ken charge Londoners the full price for bus fares and then pay Venezuela the full price for petrol ?
