Maybe book six will come out before next season, but after that it's almost certain we're going to reach the end on the show before the last book. Personally, I'd rather not wait another ten years to...

Very sad news. Saruman is perhaps the role Ser Christopher Lee will be best remembered for, particularly amongst the younger generation and for those of us here, but he was superb in so many roles....
Might as well state my position then. I've become much more Pro-EU over the past couple of years, after being somewhat lukewarm before, so I'll be voting yes whenever this finally happens. I'm sure...
Tragic news. Charles Kennedy was a highly principled politician, who achieved the rare honour of being respected not only by his colleagues in Westminster, but by much of the general public as well....
It's the same problem that manifests itself every time there is such a large swing one way or the other. Dedicated and principled local MPs, who may have constantly fought against their party's...
I would love to hear your justification on why the Human Rights Act is a problem and what you think it needs to be replaced with.
A few more arguements for electoral reform:
In Northern Ireland the SDLP had 99,809 total votes and held three seats. One of them, Belfast South, was won on 24.5% of the vote...
Plaid Cymru...
[/QUOTE]
And why is that a problem? If parties have to negotiate and mix their policies in order to form a majority then so be it; they are arguably going along with the will of the electorate....
I'll give Carswell credit for his speech earlier. Five million votes combined for Greens and UKIP, and only two seats between them. That's just not right anyway you look at it.
If there is some...
I was saying that last year, as it happens. You have to remember people often vote for parties for reasons that have little to do with their platforms, and in the Lib Dems case they traditionally...
That BBC exit poll is a real WTF. I don't think a single poll has had the Tories over 300 seats, so yeah..
The problem with the SNP is that in order to shore up their vote, they threw away their negotiating hand in Parliament by committing themselves to removing the Tories from office. They cannot then...
I think electoral reform is going to start cropping up again after the election. The disconnect between seats and votes is only going to get wider, and this time there won't only be the suddenly...
Is anyone else still a little undecided as to where to place their ballot?
For some context, I'm in a marginal Tory seat with the Lib Dems as the notional challengers. I intensely dislike my MP...
I don't know why, but despite knowing all the characters have been aged by four or five years, I was completely surprised by Tommen and Margaery. One lucky 14(?) year-old.
Sansa being engaged to...
Of course though, we know that the voting share does not match the number of seats won. It's entirely possible the SNP will win more seats than the Lib Dems and UKIP combined.
If you haven't...
I think there's one or two.
I've just looked at the poll, and what interests me is the six people who choose Sinn Fein, even though I don't think most of them actually live there. :laughter:
In the time between the parties releasing their manifestos and us starting to discuss them, I'll do something productive and point out you've only got until next Monday to register to vote, if you...
^ What he said about Varys. He disappeared on the same night, so they all knew he was responsible.
I'm not sure about the Young Griff story. It was suggested last year it's been completely cut,...
Wow, they found Kevin and Lancel Lannister. Were they lost in the Red Keep since season 2? :)
Also I don't care if people don't like the story, but more Nathalie Emmanuel on screen makes me happy.
Hold off on the homoerotica, it's just a few days now guys.
Quite simply, prove it. Come up with something you'd like to do that will benefit the entire UK and people might start to believe you.
That's a pretty awesome achievement really.
'Grats CA :salute: :bparty:
I can't possibly see how it will be a good thing for Cameron to skip the debates. How can you stand next to a Prime Minister that ducks a challenge?
I won't tell you who to vote for...
A key part of the referendum campaign was the supposed fact that Scotland got a government that relatively few people cast their ballot for. I wonder if, presuming this scenario comes to pass,...
Given up on the BNP then Sharpe? I thought they were due a comeback any time now...
It looks like genuinely good fun. :) I particularly enjoyed the bit in the trailer with the mass spiked flail catapult piling though all those soldiers. :wicked:
I'll probably wait until it's left...
Hard to take a shot when you already covered the loony fringe bit! :tongue:
The Greens in my view have to mature as a political force. They've never had to be a serious electable force before,...
I don't want Britain to leave the EU.
However, a referendum clearly does need to be held sooner or later, just to settle the matter one way or the other. You cannot just ignore the sizeable number...
An SNP coalition would be seriously, seriously unpopular in the rest of the country. Perhaps they would have got the call in more normal times, but going into government only been a few months since...
I see a Labour minority government the most likely outcome. There is very little appetite for another formal coalition in either the Labour or Tory parties, and at present polls are indicating Labour...
Have you guys seen this?
George R.R. Martin’s original plan for Game of Thrones
Wow, he certainly hadn't thought out the characters at that point....
Same, I really do not know why it has continued for so long. It's completely pointless when you can see as many naked women as you like on sites dedicated for them.
That's the film studio at work there. Orlando Bloom is a big name with a fanbase, which is great for selling the film, but now comes with a hefty price and screentime demands, which makes a small...
I've noticed a dozen games priced at -101% or something over the past few months. Someone tell Valve to stop making silly gem auction gimmicks and make the Steam client a little less buggy. (And add...
Well I enjoyed The Battle of Five Armies, to an extent. Not a great film, but not an awful one either.
After seeing the three films, I would say that while The Hobbit was not the Lord of the...
Another sale? There are so many site-wide events, publisher weeks, flash sales, and daily sales now that each one is kind of losing its allure. When you have a backlog of games that can easily occupy...
I don't believe it would have been possible to create an large oil-fund for the UK. Norway and the Gulf states had the advantage of huge reserves and a relatively small population, which made it...
Wrath of Sparta looks pretty nice. I'm actually more interested in the Greek setting than the Caesar in Gaul campaign.
And removing rams from transport ships is pretty essential. Naval combat is...
In addition to the point about developers choosing periods that will sell, pre-WW2 historical games are only a tiny percentage of the market in the first place. When you are looking for a game in an...
