There's so much in a photo isn't there.

So it's the Battle of the Barristers then, with two of them living in Falkland Rd, Harringay Ward. Time will soon arrive for us to set up court and cross question them all. We can then weigh up the evidence, make our judgement and finally past sentence at the ballot box.

No wonder we have so many ridiculous and unenforceable laws when we've got a parliament full of lawyers and fascist ex housewives.

Omg Liz are you calling yourself a fascist!

Looks like John D is voting for the Tory boy from the stock broker belt.

Ben has Tory boy lined up as the come back kid riding his very big horse (but will it be a milky bar)

James has him marked as a killer!

Quite a varied reaction thus far. Enough for a comedy piece in the Journal. :)

No, I'm not calling myself a fascist, but actually I was reacting to the quite common (and wrong) assumption oft expressed that housewife = right wing and reactionary. Perhaps we don't get out enough? We are also deemed as uninteresting, incapable of serious thinking and self interested. Don't believe me, try looking at some 'women's' discussions in the Guardian...depressingly, we are often dubbed all these things by other women. I would have hoped that this attitude towards women who choose to stay at home during their kids early years wouldn't manifest itself here.

Don't jump to conclusions :-)

I don't vote in Tottenham anyway, and I'll vote for who ever looks like restoring my RBS shares to where they were before the dour scot screwed up and cut my income in half.
