I shall appoint a speaker of the house...

First topic message reminder :

Order, order..
Things often get a bit heated, especially on political matters,there are some who seem to think England pay for Scots free prescriptions and most of Scots Students Uni fees, as Irn, Sassy amd myself have already said on more than one occasion, those are funded from Scotland's own share of the UK take.

Now, I shall draw up ten candidates as speaker of this house, in an attempt to restore calm amd order when things get too heated, most votes will win, second most will be deputy speaker...should those candidates accept that position.

The Deputy speaker will have control of keeping the peace in the abscence of the speaker of the house.


This poll shall run for 2 days and should nobody vote, I shall appoint one of those candidates myself.


Any future Speaker of the House,should not be biased and will be there to help restore order, but they are free to briefly give their account on the subject being discussed , but no more than that and must still be there firstly to restore order and to see that all sides are heard fair and square.


If anyone has two accounts they should only vote with only one of those accounts.

This of course can only go ahead with the permission of Ben, I have only set the wheels in motion.
Thank you.
Regards, JD

Although checking out the job description........

Just what came into my head Phil!!...

Ask me again in tens mins and it would be some other names I thought of there and then!

Should we have other rounds just so every regular poster has their name in the poll?
Or stick to just this one?..I'm not fussed.

Maybe take a verbal poll on that?!
