Aye, let's not have opinions.

*holds door open*

This is a zen paradise of concensus and enlightenment compared to the Sin Bin these days.

Think your ex father in law is very wise. If I was I was in charge sir Kevin would win and be a role model for the great unwashed hordes. Dread to think what bang might do this forum if he held the reins of power

An estimated 10 million people will watch SPOTY - I'm pretty sure that there'll be a segment dedicated to Sinny.

That's roughly 9.85 million people watching something RL related that usually wouldn't.

See it as a victory for RL that Kev got nominated in the first place.

Since when has benign been defined as Restrictions on Freedom of Expression, Peaceful Assembly, and Association, detention without trial, death penalty & torture?

Probably a wrong use of words, the elitist element relates to the high browsers in the BBC who will dictate the content to suit their preferences, and it is not just RL that suffers, there are many other sports in which people participate that are also given minimal recognition.

Let's be honest there's no 'ideal' form of government. We will all always be mere puppets in some poltical agenda to control, manipulate and assert power over. For example ever wondered why you're only a registered keeper of the car you think you own? The differences between legal and lawful??

As far as 'our Kev' is concerned, despite being the epitome of how a (hugely) successful captain and sportsman should professionally conduct himself, he has no chance of winning

Not to mention the old chestnut of how they treat immigrant low paid domestic workers from the region. Jet lagged I was wake flicking through TV channels one night and came across a "public information film/morality play" targetted at immigrant domestics about how they should avoid "tempting" their male employer to get them pregnant. Basically if he rapes you and gets you up the duff it's your faultfor being too provocative.

Still, there's no chewing gum on the pavement and the Taxi's don't rip you off.

Nope, can't say I have ever lost sleep over that one. Especially as I don't own a penis substitute. I do wonder about the difference between a citizen & a subject though.

Compare & contrast in how many ways government & royalty have impinged upon your life

I'll never be a royalist but that's a very good point.
