i've always wondered if any of the royals use TSR...like Prince Harry or William or Princess Beatrice or Princess Eugine

that would mean they know how to string together a coherent sentence.

Well, as the "most agreeable liberal" (both accusations/compliments neither supported or denied by me) I'd love to be a backbencher at one point.

I see you're part of the Labour party group on TSR...clearly you haven't read about their history much

"When in Parliament, the new Labour Party will find its true mission to be not the shortening of hours, increasing of wages, and bettering of conditions, but the overthrow of the capitalist class and the landlord class, so that land and capital be used to produce for consumption and not for profit."
Labour Representation Committee 1900.

Fancy giving it another go?

The question is - Would a future PM actually acknowledge their previous internet nicknames and forums, thus allowing the newspapers and endless supply of material?

If I were ever in a serious position of power, I'd have to think long and hard about wether I'd want journalists reading through my 5000+ TSR posts.

Although saying that, one of my mates would probabley sell me out.

Just modernise the wording a little bit and you'll be PM by 2014. Maybe start with "When in Parliament, the new, old, Labour Party..."

How would you like to be my top adviser?

It'd cause redefinition of the class system to be based on the number of reputation points someone has.

You're black? :eek3:

I see myself going back to Tanzania and becoming President, for sure. :yep:

Also, I think we have future PM on tsr. In his cabinet he will have various profile pics of girls from TSR. :yep:

There's always some people on here who desperately want to remain anonymous. Those are the future PMs me thinks. :yep:

Why the shock? Because I didn't go round saying 'Whagwan babes?' :rolleyes:

Not all Labour supporters/activists are socialists. They are more on the left-wing, but thats not to say they are socialist.

Congratualations. However it seems rather foolish to laugh at the prospect of a Socialist PM, when your party was all for it not that long ago. I think a revival is possible.

God help us all if the next PM is from TSR- I dont want some Conservative intolerant clown running the country :smile:

ps: I think the model UN and Commons thing is rather pathetic. You need to experiecne debate first hand and not in front of the keyboard

Nah, in general the people who are really clued up on politics on TSR are generally far too Socialist/lefty to become PMs. Or too Liberal I reckon.

We may have the next Tony Benn on here :yep:

It's an interesting question, you know - I was listening to a podcast a week or two ago where they touched upon this in the form of the fact that the person who'll be president in 35 years is probably on Facebook now - the first president of the web 2.0 era will have all their history undestroyably stored on some hard drive somewhere, and it'll be a first. So Cameron admitted to doing some Coke in his folly-filled youth, but really, there's a difference between a quiet admissal and actual pictoral evidence of that night you played Amy-Winehands at your friend's 21st birthday house party.

But it will, of course, happen - then again, they'll be voted in by a group of people who most likely also have pictures of themselves playing Edward-Ciderhands from 35 years ago on Facebook (or whatever it's 10th generation derivative is), so maybe it won't matter? It's an interest subject though, to be sure.
