• Thank you very much | Diolch yn fawr

    All at JackArmy.net would like to thank everyone who has played a part on this site over the past 25 years whether that is through writing, contributing, moderating, posting or just visting and reading.

    Without any of you the work that has gone into the site would have been pointless and we will always be proud that we built, generated and managed a community that was such a big part of the Swansea City supporting life for so long.

    It has been a pleasure to bring to you the site for so long but the time is now right to turn the lights out for the last time but we do it both with a heavy heart and a sense of pride driven by the so many messages received since we announced the closure.

    The site will remain here for a period until we archive and mothball it for the last time later this summer but all aspects are in a read only format.

    Thank you though for all the memories

    Phil Sumbler
    Owner, jackarmy.net

Man is a gutter snipe. :x
 
Nadine Dorries, the human equivalent of a snot hanging from an old mans nose.
 
Well Thatcher got her mate Jimmy Savile knighted, so the president was set back in 1980"s...

Scummy bàstards

Better to do it properly like the French and hang them. To misquote Paul Weller, ‘From family trees, the lords do swing…’

On the plus side, the by-elections might be interesting.

Short memories on here, need to smell the Lavender? Or perhaps have a look at Blairs Cash for honours?

They are all complicit.

Normally I'd call this whataboutery but you make a point, which is covered in Oborne's assault on the truth book.

Blair started this and then the Tories turbocharged it

"Blair started this"
Harold Wilson 1976 with the scandalous Lavender list. Politics is a dirty business where the colour of the party doesnt seem to make a difference. There are some politicians who genuinely go into it trying to make a difference but are soon snookered. The trouble we have is that we dont kick them out, in Neath they have had a Labour MP forever same in Richmond or Buckingham with the Tories.

Sorry to be a pedant but Richmond is Lib Dem, but yes you make a salient point

-No need to be sorry mate, should have stated Fishy Rishy MP - Richmond Yorks been Blue since the ice age :D
 
Well I remember back to Lord Gannex and Lady Falkender and there has been nothing, NOTHING, that gets close to Lord Lebedev, Russian KGB top dog's son, Putin's right hand man's son.

Johnson should already be locked up for treason, not putting more shitheads in Ermine. I agree he's not the first but that doesn't mean it shouldn't be stopped. I'd like to get rid of all those others too that Blair or anyone put there...Lord Amstrad ffs...

It's tiresome to always have to point out that (valid) criticism of this shower of shit government doesn't mean we think all Labour governments, and the current Labour party, are paragons of virtue who never did anything wrong. If you don't state that, all they have is 'but Labour...'

They're all a shower of shit JS, all in it for their own ends power and wealth, whether they're left, right or centre. Sickening, the who system needs a massive overall
