    You’d have a bit more credibility on this topic Baz if you weren’t trying to push a woman out of the job you eventually took from her before you were even elected. I get it, Mrs Mettam doesn’t have your charisma, but charisma (or its lack) is not the reason your party is practically irrelevant. Your party is practically irrelevant because it hasn’t offered anything to anyone under 60 for too long. And now the boomers are starting to die out.

    ‘Rich people and old people’ will only carry you so as a base when you have enough of them. Most voters no longer fall into the demographic you guys have cultivated for decades.

    Yeah so I’m putting everything on the table tonight, I’m definitely not ruling out having a party with hookers and blow.

        Back in the 90s the sight of Basil coked out of his gourd at night clubs with ladies too young for him was pretty common, so I’m told.
