I want to grab these tory fucking scumbags by the scruff of the neck and scream into their faces "SHAME ON YOU, REPRESENT THE PEOPLE!"

What fucking happened to my britain? What happened to the highest privilege to be born british? Keep calm and carry on spirit?

How can the CUNT tory scumbags expect the least privileged in this country to care for each other and take part in fucking "big community" when our fucking government is LITERALLY selling our nation from under us to line their cronies pockets? How can they act dishonestly and expect honesty from the rest of the country?

They're rushing all these fucking policies in as quickly as they can because they know they're not gonna get in next time, so there's nothing to lose. At least the other fucking parties pretend to be doing it in our best interest.

The idea is that if you're not voting for the opposing party that is most likely to beat Conservatives (i.e. voting Labour, I'd imagine), then you're effectively supporting the Conservatives.
MRLP was an independent party.

Nuttier than squirrel shit, but at least he's offering some light relief in a drawn-out political campaign. I think the point of the existense of these type of people is that this is where you exercise your "protest vote" (i.e. If you think the rest of them are full of crap, then vote for THIS guy). We had a guy similar to this in the UK who died in 1999, his name was Screaming lord Sutch & he was leader of "The Monster Raving Loony Party"

I'm sure i remember my step dad telling my mum that if she voted for screaming lord sutch, it was actually voting for the tories.. did he used to be in them, or is that remotely explainable? I was too young.



That would have been it, thanks. Don't think my child's mind was ready for that kind of insinuation!

Ah - in the video clip above there is a shot of the cannon lying on its side. It appears to be the cannon that Tory built himself that they used for the "Ball and Chain Prison Escape" episode. It also appears to be mounted on a pair of old timey wagon wheels via some sort of shop-built rig. If there was any sort of anchoring system in place then I couldn't see it in the vid.

There's a reason why old style field artillery on wheels had that big wooden splay in the back. It provided an anchor point that prevented the canon from bucking up when fired. Looks like the Build Team took out thier home made cannon, had no anchoring system, and let fly with it. They used more powder than they did in that particular device in the past, and chaos ensued.

Frankly, I'm a bit surprised that JD Nelson (who was on the site) didn't say something. He usually seems to be pretty savvy about explosives, and should have observed that the cannon needed some means of fixing in place. Doesn't seem like thier other explosive expert (Frank Doyle) was there, or it may have gone better. I also bet if Jamie or Adam had been around that this wouldnt' have happened. They have experience with firing real cannons from the Pirate episodes, and they probably would have noticed a problem.

Big fan of the show. I am glad no one got hurt, but I can well imagine that the Build team got a severe chastising by one James Franklin Hyneman. He's usually in charge of safety, and someone could have easily been killed or hurt by this lapse. I don't know what happened, but I bet dimonds to dollars that the cannon was not anchored properly before it want off and the recoil probably kicked the barrel up just high enough to clear the hill the shot was supposed to go into. The Mythbusters themselves probably didn't set up the cannon - unless it was the home-made cannon that Tory did for the "Ball & Chain prison escape" episode. That was more like a mortar though, and not designed to fire laterally. I hope this incident makes a blooper show, or gets broadcast in some way. You KNOW they have footage on the accident right up to where the shot went bad.

Not the first time the build team has had a bad accident though. In "Hollywood Car Myths" they were testing the movie axiom of when a car goes full speed under a semi-trailer and gets the roof knocked off but is still drivable. The myth was confirmed - the car slid right under the trailer. But the car went off the safety track and kept on going at like 70 miles an hour... It went right off the track, off the course, up a hill, and over a fence. Kari Byron had a horrified look on her face and just said, "Uh oh..." Luckily in that case (also) no one got hurt, but there was a road not too far past the fence the car flew over and someone could have gotten really clobbered. In that case it was also not the Build Team's fault. The site's safety rigging must have failed somehow.

Right, cause that's worked sooo well here in the U.S.

Aboot time there were some Canadian ghettos/projects/hoods.

In Canada, The Harper Government has solved the problem of corporations and private interest being unable to profit from solving the problem of homelessness. Earlier this year they declared that they will devote billions into a new low-income housing project.
