The coolest store I heard was Chelsea Store in London- it is supposedly 3 (three) stories high, with Champions League on one floor, EPL on another and something else on the third.

Btw, what happened to the 60 second rule?

This is the answer.

The reason why Blair and Bush were elected was because the people voting for the candidates care more about issues affecting them rather than anything else going on in the world.

That is highly understandable, and no matter what country you go to you'll find the same "me first" mentallity. That said, a lot of people don't always know what they're actually voting for.

I think Blair is a very good man personally. I'd take him any day over my President.

Thing is, things that affect us could very well affect you, as they do. The world is a village, everything is connected together, and cnahces are that world events will have a big impact at home as well.

Having said that:

I like California and New York. Especially the latter. Seems they haven't fully lost touch with their Dutch heritage :touched:
Dude, New York City is absolutely one of the most amazing cities of the world. And yeah, it was founded by the Dutch and was originally called New Amsterdam, until the English came in.

There is always something to do in Manhattan, and if you have an urban personality- the place will be a total paradise.

As for the West coast- I've travelled all around it- nothing spectacular. People are nice. But everyone's kinda lose and relaxed. YOu just wanna lay on the beach and party all the time. I would not live there.

No offense Zlatan but don't play the dummy here. You will always favor the candidate who suits your personal preferences the most, no matter if a majority or minority of voters highly disagree with you. IMO there is no such thing as a perfect candidate in world politics.

I remmember the protests in london , millions of people were in the streets to protest against participating in iraq war and asking for troops to go home , and saying that blair did not tell them the truth about it .

then after that he was elected again with no trouble at all.

how that happened ? cause this is the cause of what happend in london 3 weeks ago ?
Firstly... there was never millions of people in the protest march, it was a couple of hunred thousand.

The more important question... Why shouldnt he be re elected??

What jus cause of one issue he should be ousted... one issue in foreign affairs? one issue that does not have any bearing on whether he has done well at his job... running our country!

Has he not been a decent pm ?
Fact is he hasnt done bad... the country is in far better shape than when he came in and who are the alternatives?
The tories ?
Who allthough they like to bang on about iraq... they openly admited they would have done the same and gave full support to labour at the time...

The Tories ?

Who are much more hard lined on most issues than labour
Who led this country into recession
Who were at election time led by a man who in essence is a figure of national disgust...
A party in dissaray for the last 10 or so years...
A party who wish to raise the taxes for the working class...
A party that offer nothing to this country that labour dont...

A party that the majority know will lead this country into misery if re elected?

A party whose main policies are ever closer to labours... the gap is ever closing... so why change to a party without a leader... At least people know where they are with blair and who in the main like gordon brown and will welcome him with open arms when he steps into tony's shoes...


So again i ask... Why shouldnt he have been re-elcted ??
